  1. Madden i guess? I don't really play much anymore though. Those games are just such a drag. Like lets imagine the bills without Allen... gross. rather not.
  2. I hate that they don't take it out of the individual's stat line anywhere, or ever account for it in fantasy football (i'm sure some do, just not common in this circle). Completion percentage - doesn't factor in the plays where you didn't complete the ball, and got sacked. Yards passing or rushing (they include it in rushing stats in college) don't factor it in either. Strouds stats for example last year compared to a sack reduced yardage total, and including it as an "incompletion".
  3. Yeah! I remember reading about them adjusting tackling technique. It's probably easier to teach now with a few more actual rules involving player safety.
  4. I'd try first going direct with the team (miami or buffalo) on single-game tickets if possible to avoid secondary market, even if it won't be a very good seat. Its probably a bit pricey but i think that's just how everything is now. Friend who is a ticket brokers advice is always - if you don't have a hookup (someone with seasons, business connection, someone who works for said team or stadium, etc.), you're better off waiting because of all the fee's. The initial blitz after these types of publicity stunts always results in higher prices. Season ticket holders pick out games to sell, brokers set the pricing and its going to drive the cost up. Prices will then fluctuate as the event gets closer.
  5. I truly haven't been to, or watched a full preseason game in years. I think if i had season tickets i'd probably go?
  6. People play a lot different when they don't have helmets. But at the same time, then when it does happen even accidentally there's 0 protection so that doesn't really work either. I personally think he's done, and like thurman thomas before him - trying to get everyone to forget that he played for miami. 🙂
  7. I mean i don't think rapp is specifically headhunting anyone. There's a fine line/edge to it, and both players waffle over that edge from time to time.
  8. At the very least - we know shakir is a dawg. Worthy getting all this love is strange considering to get 82 more yards than coleman required 41 more targets. I get it, he played well in the playoffs and those games matter more. But the bills defense was pretty bad in that one. Benford goes out and in goes elam, with douglas already struggling. The entire team couldn't tackle or create pressure. Also his big catch wasn't even a freaking catch and i'll never have anyone explain to me why it was. I also don't really think its that important when you get 150 yards in a super bowl when your team ran the ball 7x, turned it over 3x, had 12 first downs, and lost by 18. He had 2 catches for 9 yards when they were down 34-0.
  9. If he's not playing for the bengals under that contract, i doubt he's playing with anyone else. You'd have to at least offer him a raise on the 1yr 16M deal you'd be acquiring, maybe with a guarantee not to tag included. But most acquiring teams would probably extend him so that they could reduce that cap hit for 2025. Unless it's the jets... see Hasaan Reddick 🙂
  10. Could be all the box jumping trainers have people doing too. I think they could all stand to do some pilates and yoga.
  11. I think last year there was a really big unknown factor - Hollins was a cast-off, Coleman a rookie who didn't test well, samuel who was brought in to play a few different roles as an upgrade over Mckenzie and Harty on offense, shakir only had 65 targets in 2 seasons, and MVS who was there as a deep threat. Hollins definitely was worth his contract, coleman made some highlights and lowlights, samuel missed a bunch of camp with turf toe and then played through it, and MVS was a disaster. This year we know Shakir is legit. We saw some highlight reel plays from Coleman, and he played a lot better before his injury. Samuel never felt like himself, but he did score 2 playoff TDs. Now you add in palmer who is a blocking type of receiver who can get open down the field, and Elijah moore who gives you a bit more from slot depth that wasn't there last year.
  12. Going with Fitz over Tyrod. Tyrod has traits - Better Arm, Faster, Stronger - you can probably even run some of the QB power type stuff with prime Tyrod's athleticism. Fitz on the other hand has more of an understanding of the position. Much better pocket management and ability to avoid sacks. Tyrod's a spot thrower for the most part, while fitz is more capable of throwing people open. This can definitely generate turnovers, but it also creates more yards over the course of a game. Tyrod had some stinkers (make him play QB).
  13. I just don't think he's HC material tbh. I feel like coaching is a mixed bag of - X's and O's, gamecalling, and leadership. Seeing a sirianni win a super bowl to me indicates that leadership certainly has different types for different teams, but i never got the vibe that Saleh was a particularly good leader. The clueless look on his face when things didn't go right extended to the media, and he couldn't handle the ownership and management meddling very well. Just a football coach, which to me seems like a lifetime coordinator.
  14. 4/91 = 4.4% 6/75 = 8%
  15. Snaps alone Bowers absolutely blows Kincaid away. Playing more is the easiest way to get individual accolades, but i like Bowers too - I feel like if he was in this draft he goes ahead of McMillan, and in Kincaids class he might have been the first pass-catcher off of the board. Bowers 2024 - 956 snaps Kincaid 2024 - 471 snaps, Kincaid 2023 - 699 for a 2 year total of 1170.
