  1. I was very young at the time but I didn't realize he broke Jim Brown's record in that same game. He still has the most yards per game in a single season at 143.1 which is incredible.
  2. For those that don't know what the hell the OP is talking about.
  3. All tax payers in New York financed it in some way. I kid. PSL holders absolutely should get first crack at seeing the stadium. I just wish they'd make the open practice at night so more people could go.
  4. US were actually slight favorites and Belgium just wanted it more. The overturning of the red card suspension may have shifted the team playing with a chip on their shoulder from the US to Belgium. It was the worst game the US played all tournament and obviously disappointing.
  5. Are you fricken serious? THAT?????? Did the Drew Blesode era jerseys designer come out of retirement?
  6. Our season ends on a sole crushing loss in the AFC Championship game at the Bengals as Bass misses wide left at the buzzer to lose 30-28.
  7. If he takes a pretty healthy hometown discount like Benford did last year then I'm fine with it. If not then let him walk next year and play the comp game. He's not elite and it's not a premium position.
  8. Nah. All anyone ever talked about after that movie was Ledger's performance. If he was alive he'd be getting the Christopher Waltz treatment. I prefer Ledger's Joker but Hardy's Bane was great too. A menacing voice and presence. The two beefs I had is he's hard to understand without subtitles and they should've just left Al Ghul out of it. Assuming that Bane was the mastermind behind everything only to reveal he was just an effective soldier in Ghul's plan took away from his character's complexity. Nolan fumbled that plot line.
  9. What exactly is your argument here? Yes any of the players who have abused their wives or children should be more harshly punished then they are now. I'm just explaining the reason that gambling punishments are more severe because it threatens the golden goose more.
  10. None of those players crimes had the potential to make people hesitate to open up their wallets/phones and place bets on games. If enough people start to think that games are fixed (either by the refs or players) the less likely they are to watch/wager and the NFL will lose money because of it. Punishment for gambling has to be severe or the game eventually folds.
  11. I know he seems like a decent person and everything but Sean McDermott better not hope the Devil is a Bills fan.
  12. Diggs was on pace for an all pro season averaging 92.7 receiving yards per game under the Dorsey offense. It's hard for me to believe he quickly fell off unless there was some nagging injury. Seems to me like he checked out under Brady. His blocking effort was pathetic on run plays. The WR core wasn't as good as it was the years before that but it wasn't a dramatic step down. McDermott was right that year to want more balance but all I'm saying is Brady's previous stints were more suggestive of a pass happy offense. All I'm saying is I think we get a little increase in passing play rate this year.
  13. We had Diggs, Davis, Shakir, and Kincaid (albeit a rookie) when he took over as play caller in and we immediately shifted to around a 47% rushing rate per snap. That was after McDermott hinted the offense needed to be more balanced. He understood the assignment and leaned on Kramer to make the run game effective. Panthers WR core wasn't exactly loaded but he still got over 3,000 combined receiving yards from DJ Moore, Robbie Anderson, and Curtis Samuel with Teddy Bridgewater as the main QB. Now that Kramer is gone, McDermott doesn't have his ear, and our WR core on paper should be better with the addition of Moore and maybe Bell. I do expect him to be more pass happy. Maybe not what we saw under Daboll/Dorsey but closer to a 60% pass rate. He was a passing game coordinator at LSU and I just don't think designing rushing plays is his true passion.
  14. Opened up room for Clyde Edwards-Helaire to average 6.6 yards a pop for 1414 yards and 14 TD's. Allowed him to get that 1st round pick money.
