Miyagi-Do Karate

I am good with the fairly conservative offensive and defensive schemes. Let the saints beat themselves. Let’s play smart.

Ugh. Hope it is minor.

good observation. Wonder if that is nerves? Not looking like himself.

this ref crew lets these guys play. i swear I have seen like 3 false starts not even called.

Take the points. Keep it up! This is a game where we need to move the ball and score where we can. Don’t need to win 42-0. Winning 23-10 is just fine.

Horrible play call By Payton. Wow.

he has already lost us a game, and I worry it could happen again.

Holy moly Haack. Even that one was almost blocked

Knox wide open!

stevenson strikes me as a better kick returner— straight ahead speed. A PR needs a little more shimmy, which is what I like about mckenzie. But mckenzie has other issues.

same. this ref crew is actually pretty hands off.

That TD too is why you need to get the ball To knox in space. He is very similar to Kelce— you hit him and he still can fall Forward 6 yards.

Most balanced drive of the year.

I am scared!!

the only time I have ever had to use the vomit emoji!

wasnt even really a muff. He just slipped and fell down.

Butler has basically been inactive in every game he’s played in.

dont agree with putting Isaiah in the dog house. Was a fluke play in rainy conditions. Was hoping they would just work Stevenson in returning kicks, but give McKenzie more time at receiver.

that’s classic— sounds like my house, where we have a million people crammed in together, plugging in every random thing in the run-up to the big meal.

Agreed. is there a more boring franchise than the bears? At least other teams have had some fun and explosive players in the last 30 years. I can’t think of a single bears player— maybe Devin Heston (and he was just a special teamer mostly).

i am not sure I have ever remembered a good lions thanksgiving game. That said, I am fine with them playing the early game every year. Now that they have added other games, it doesn’t matter.

First week where I have been able to relax about the game time weather!!

that’s great, man. Congrats on getting in shape! I pretty much did the opposite— was in great shape when Covid hit, and then went from 155 pounds to 180 due to laziness and the inability to play Rec sports. I am (slowly) on my way back down— right now at 170. Lot easier to put on weight than take it off!

I thought VCU’s defense was physical and aggressive, and it really led to a lot of bad turnovers and sloppy offense by Syracuse. Seemed like a lot of their jumpers were not in rhythm, and even when they had open looks, they were out of sorts and missing. Swider had a lot of good open looks and is just missing. i thought the defense looked pretty good for most of the game, until VCU figured out how to really get close to the basket and kick it back from the middle to wide open shooters. Edwards getting into foul trouble didn’t help, though at least 2 of his fouls were super weak calls. You see any of it?
