  1. It wasn’t that we weren’t allowed to wear white helmets, we chose not to…some say due to the cost. 🤔 A few teams wore different colored helmets that year.
  2. He was only here for 4 average seasons. He won a few big games but was nothing more than the best of a long line of bad Buffalo QBs. Awesome guy but not even close to WOF worthy.
  3. No. So many more deserving players than him. Everyone loves Fitz as a person but putting him on the WOF is a little ridiculous imo.
  4. I think you mean Tua? Brissett plays for the Browns now and was the backup in Miami last year.
  5. And I still got 2 chicks back at the hotel.
  6. Even under the old rules, 10 mins was only during the regular season. It was 15 mins for the playoffs.
  7. My understanding is they treat it just like regular 15 min quarters. Team 1 uses 10 mins, if team still 2 still has ball after 5 mins, they switch sides and keep going. Just like they would from 1st to 2nd quarter. After that, it’s just like old school sudden death - they keep playing 15 min quarters until someone scores.
  8. LOL. Deferring the opening coin toss is completely different than deferring the OT coin toss. I would defer to start the game every time but never to finish the game. I also wasn’t saying teams don’t use analytics at all, I was referring to those similar situations - going for 2 and even going on 4th down when it’s against conventional thinking. The Chargers should have been a playoff team but their coach’s reliance on analytics cost them a few games. Your article also doesn’t mention any game scenarios that analytics were used.
  9. Assuming your defense hasn’t been depleted by injury and they’ve made some stops in the game already, yes. You trust your players to make plays. If you don’t you lose the game and the locker room. How many of those teams that went for 2 and the win in the regular season converted? How many were playoff teams? Could be wrong but I don’t recall any. The teams that tried on a regular basis did so because they knew they weren’t good enough and had nothing to lose.
  10. You take the ball every time, try to score and put the pressure on the other team. Even if the other team scores I think they kick the XP to tie and keep the game going 99% of the time. I can’t see any team going for 2 in OT of a playoff game unless you don’t trust your kicker or your defense. I think some of you put too much into analytics in that situation. Definitely more than most NFL coaches do. The few coaches that did use analytics a lot didn’t make the playoffs.
  11. Never thought Andy Reid could hide like that.
  12. I count 28 so which 4 are missing? Don’t see Bill or Andy Reid.
  13. Some of you all need to give him more credit. Tua is one of the absolute best in the league at throwing with his left hand. Name someone better at that.
  14. If he’s grown a backbone he could be a halfway decent GM. Chances that has happened?
  15. I do agree that things are not perfect and never will be. It doesn’t change the fact that I firmly believe Watson has done what he has been accused of and think that guilt doesn’t only apply in the court of law. I also have no issues with people holding him accountable for his actions since the courts cannot. Take care GB. I do appreciate your takes. Hope to chat with you again on a much more enjoyable topic. Go BILLS.
  16. I think the emotion is starting to creep in more and more due to the overall number of cases where we see someone who has very likely done what they are accused of getting off on a technicality or because they can essentially buy their way out of it. Or even the number of wrongful convictions we see being turned over years later. It happens way too often in the US and as it keeps happening, it erodes the publics confidence in the system. Our system favors the wealthy, always has. In order to try and prosecute Watson, these women would be dragged though the mud of public opinion and forced to relive the experience over again. That is why so many of the he said she said situations go unprosecuted in this country. In large part the women don’t want to go through it when it’s 50/50 that the accused will be held liable. How many women get raped only to be called a *****? Way too many. This is why so many of us disagree with some of your rationale and it’s likely due to how your exposure differs from ours. You seem to be looking at this as black and white where we see it as a huge gray area because we see it happen locally all the time. If someone does something horrible/illegal but there is little evidence and everyone is too afraid to testify, are they really innocent? You seem to think they are but many of us have seen it enough to logically conclude they are not.
  17. I do agree with your overall premise of innocence until proven guilty but I completely disagree with this statement you made: “If the grand jury thought the evidence presented gave a reasonable chance of conviction they would have indicted.” When it comes to these high profile cases, prosecutors want a lot more than a reasonable chance of conviction, they want an overwhelming likelihood of conviction. IMO some prosecutors won’t even try if there’s a chance the court may find them innocent. They don’t want to be the one that allows a court to rule someone who they believe is obviously a sexual predator is innocent simply because there’s no hard evidence. Right or wrong politics play a role. That is why I personally never expected any criminal charges against him and fully expect him to settle all civil cases with payoffs, non disclosure agreements and a statement saying it is not an admission of guilt.
  18. Good. My desire to see him completely fall off the cliff is still possible. Don’t want him going out anywhere near the top.
  19. Not defending calling you names or anything but you did state we need a true #1 CB. The only interpretation of that statement is in your opinion Tre is not a top CB. What we need is a true #2 CB to go next to Tre.
  20. Kind of surprised at how many are saying Harry was a healthy scratch in the beginning of the season. He tore his PCL in the preseason against the Bears. As for the OP…I call BS.
