  1. It was always cheating. Good for them for clarifying it, but I don't see how it needed to be clarified. This isn't the CFL.
  2. I can't think of a less engaging on-camera person than Bill Belichick. Not to mention, nobody sees the irony of having him break down film for the public? Will he use the all-22 or will he bring his own? "This here is how you record the hand signals of the opponent the week before you play them." or the classic "This is how you break down an opposing team's closed practice before the Super Bowl"
  3. They did something like that in Foxboro. At the end of the day it's still your average shopping center with a couple hotels. It's something, but it's not game changing in anyway. Something actually cool like what they have for Atlanta's baseball stadium I frankly don't think is possible in WNY. Especially out in OP.
  4. The track record of running QBs isn't great long term. It wouldn't be the dumbest thing to draft and develop guys every couple of years. If you need them you have them, if not you trade them away a la Jimmy G.
  5. Since Amazon is already in the mix, broadcast a team centered stream for each game on Twitch with a team-centered host, moderators, chat room, etc. I know many of the more...experienced members on here would never use it but the younger demographic does quite a bit and it's fun. If you've never used it, think of basically a large watch party, you're just watching from home rather than all together. Brings in people from all over the world. edit - you could do it on YouTube also, but Twitch is a slightly better interface IMO.
  6. Seems like we all should if that's all we need to do to get a press pass.
  7. It means he's not great at reading the defense and putting the offense into a better play or at least knowing where to go with the football pre-snap.
  8. He was so solid they signed AJ Klein off his couch and played him over Matakevich.
  9. I deleted a woodchuck earlier this year. Jumped out from the side of the road into my back tire. There's still some fur jammed in between the wheel and tire.
  10. In your defense, the Dolphins are quite forgettable.
  11. Your kids teachers would like you to have them awhile longer.
  12. You both better knock on wood. Immediately.
  13. Mt. Rushmore has 4 people on it. Just 4. Who are your 4 for the entire franchise?
  14. If Allen did what he does now in the timeframe when Elway played he'd never survive. There isn't a Ronnie Lott or Steve Atwater in the modern game. In Elway's time everybody had someone who at least tried to hit like that. There is a reason that "dual-threat" QBs with big dual-threat stats don't really exist historically and one of the comparisons to Allen retired due to repeated concussions (Steve Young). If you ran that much on purpose you'd get hurt. There are also a couple people who would have been interesting if you teleported them out of the Neanderthal offenses their coaches insisted on running at the time. Randall Cunningham being one of them. I've said it repeatedly and will continue to, if you took some of the QBs out of the 80's and early 90's when passing started to become a much larger thing and put them into the modern world where they can't be touched and their WRs can't really be touched they'd look amazing and would have lasted significantly longer to boot. So yeah, call Allen the best dual-threat QB ever if you have to but just recognize that there have been people who came before that would have looked MUCH different if they played under the current rules. Marino threw for 5k yards under those conditions in 1984 and it took until 2008 before anybody did it again. Since 2008 it's happened 14 times. It's a different game. Making these sorts of statements and comparisons is going to be inherently flawed and almost always skews in favor of the more recent players but don't tell me you watched that Elway highlight video and didn't see Josh Allen running.
  15. His name is John Elway. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z-qKumxuDxA&ab_channel=NFLThrowback
  16. Kelly was already 28 by this time and had taken a LOT of abuse. This was also the time when QBs still got hit late (or what would be late today) and you weren't safe when you slid when running either. Running QBs were targets. This was described by Dan Dierdorf as "a clean shot" Again, no flag on this play.
  17. This game is counterargument number 1 when someone talks about how bad spectators are these days.
  18. 27:29 - very young Matt LeBlanc selling Fruitful Bran I watch this game at least once a year online and each time I forget how much I hated Eric McMillan.
  19. Barry Sanders. Absolutely amazing player.
  20. Van Pran-Granger. If he doesn't win the center job outright they will cut him and put him on the PS.
  21. He can probably do all 3 at the same time if we're honest.
  22. If the nag is displeased I'm quite certain there is an ample stable of mares ready to saddle up.
