  1. Worst helmet ever. Just awful from a design standpoint.
  2. I don't think Allen is to blame, and if you remember Rivers' postseason issues, a lot of SD's failures were hard to blame on him as well. He had kickers miss chip shots, he had skill position players fumble or bobble throws for picks at the last minute. These weren't all int he playoffs, but they lost so many close games over the years that it did impact the chargers ability to get more cracks at the can. Ultimately what's remembered is that Rivers didn't win when it mattered. They don't remember the fumbles, bobbles, dropped passes, defensive implosions, penalties or anything else that cost them a chance at a ring. Maybe Josh escapes that criticism if he continues to dominate in spite of a ring, but it's hard to avoid it forever.
  3. 1 AFC championship game appearance in 5 years, despite three straight division championships would indicate the opposite. Look, I'm not dying on that hill, and I'm not saying being Rivers 2.0 is even a bad thing. Despite people hating on him, he's undeniably one of the greatest passers in NFL history.However, he was never able to get a loaded team over the hump. Josh's team isn't quite as loaded, but they've had top 5 talent over the last few years and so the comparisons are going to come. Personally, i think it's more of a coaching problem, but Josh won't escape responsibility if it continues much longer.
  4. A lot of people are saying that about Josh too.
  5. There never has been. It's always been extremely thin at the top.
  6. They're a coach away. Perhaps the Bills are too.
  7. I stopped reading what you had to say right there. 8 years ago, lol. 🤡
  8. risks that he might miss a quarter of football over 5 years running the ball vs the multiple games and season long impact of two UCL injuries sustained in the pocket? Have you even figured out that you're wrong yet? He doesn't though. There have been multiple breakdowns on his limitations with coverage disguises. Here's one:
  9. So, two minor injuries where he missed less than a full game and had no long term impact to performance. Sorry, I won't consider either of those things to be significant injuries that back up your argument.
  10. Ryan bates play has been far from "trash". I think his play has been better than Morse overall. One could argue he's playing between two weak players in Morse and Brown.
  11. Why is there such a big focus this year on turning him into Drew Bledsoe? The only place he's ever gotten hurt is in the pocket. He's bigger than everyone who can tackle him and that's where he's special. If you force him into being a pocket passer, you're taking away a major part of what makes him special.
  12. Whether or not we win a Super Bowl will have little to do with the play of our O-line. O-line helps keep a QB healthy and they help runt he clock, but winning teams have been scheming around sub-par line play for a long time.
  13. If they had so much money to piss away why not let him walk and sign D-Hop?
  14. It tocuhed a nerve with me because you took the completely wrong message away form the article. You said "The only gripe about the article is that it never answered the question we all were asking - what kind of drugs was Zay Jones on?" We're very clearly NOT all asking that question, and if you're asking it, you don't need the answer. And in case that wasn't clear enough, there is a chasm of distinction between having drugs in your system ona given day and being a "crackhead" or "methhead" as was implied with Jones. People from all walks of life take recreational drugs, from the homeless to Billionaire CEOs. Labeling someone as an addict based on extremely limited information is an actual problem, unlike you demanding to know what drugs a stranger may or may not have ingested once upon a time.
  15. Not if you mind your own business. His past is his, not yours. You aren't entitled to know any of it. Pray tell, how does this impact you in the slightest?
  16. Except it's not an issue at all. Not even a little bit.
  17. Who is asking that and why does it matter in the least? The only people that care about that are tabloid readers. It's completely meaningless to everyone else, and frankly none of our business.
  18. Both Ryan Grigson and Jon Robinson were fired the same season they signed massive extensions. This means nothing as to whether or not either of McBeane are here come April 2024. The league has over $800M of dead salary on the books for fired coaches and execs.
  19. The pearl clutching on this one is hilarious. Not a thing of value was lost here and people are acting like a boat of refugees sank. Oh, wait.
  20. 90% of cooking well is understanding the balance between salt, acid, fat, and heat. If you can saute garlic & onion, that will make any dish magical. Then use salt and fresh cracked black pepper on a protein of choice and just cook it to a proper temperature. Most people overcook the ***** out of their food, so cook it less - especially vegetables and especially lean proteins like chicken breast and pork chops. A chicken thigh with just salt and pepper cooked in a pan should be mouth wateringly delicious on its own, you just need to know how to get good results. If steak and broccoli is bland, it's probably because you didn't season the meat well enough and you boiled broccoli. Try roasting some fresh broccoli in oil salt and pepper at 450 for a few minutes until it starts to brown and crisp up and tell me that's bland. Technique is everything. Recipes are really the end of the line. If you can't make chicken taste great on its own, that's something to fix first. I recommend getting a good understanding of the maillard reaction and pasteurization temps for meat to make sure you cook your lean proteins to the lowest proper temperature. For meats high in collagen like chicken thigh, brisket, chuck steak, you have to cook those to 185 or above to break that down to have the meat be as moist as possible. Of course, you didn't ask for that, so here are some great easy recipes that are staples around here: This homemade tomato sauce pasta is can't miss. We like to use fresh campari tomatoes or you can do the same technique with san marzano tomatoes. Because the dish is so simple it's worth using the best tomatoes you can get. I'll often add sauteed shrimp This scampi recipe from Gordon is also fantastic and dead easy: 100% make the sauce on this chicken from Sam the cooking guy: Tacos are a very easy meal to make with any protein and here's a great salsa:
  21. The guy still had 12 TDs last year in a complimentary role. He's not a top 5 back anymore, but you could do far, far worse than him as a cheap #2.
  22. I don't hate the scheme but it looks like they just stretched the lion in ms paint.
  23. you're hilariously incorrect in your assumption of my profession and level - by about 10 fold.
  24. And it's also ignoring reality when people say things like "if he did it why wasn't he charged?" when we have a long, long history in this country of a failure to prosecute and convict sex criminals in this country. Unprocessed rape kits, shoddy police work, DA backlogs, celebrity/institutional cover ups, etc are all relevant here. A lot of common folk get upset whenever someone's past gets dredged up in allegations. We hear things like "Why didn't she come out 20 years ago if that's true?" but then we see examples like Cosby, Weinstein, and Masterson, where people did come out decades before - they were just ignored. Eventually people relent in those cases because it becomes clear that they're actual monsters and no one wants to be a stan for a serial predator. If they avoid prosecution or are found not guilty for whatever reason though, the tide immediately shifts to victim blaming. See Araiza and even Watson to an extent. There is clearly a public bias to label women as liars, gold-diggers, and whores in these cases. It's a pretty extreme mountain to climb for women who suffer physical and/or sexual assault to get justice. I don't understand why it isn't a mainstream opinion that this is a major problem. Punt God gets to go live his life now, and even that's not enough for some people. Because he wasn't prosecuted, some people feel he's entitled to more - and so does he apparently.
