Royale with Cheese

Because protesters have been violating laws and this tightens it by making it very clear. We had to propose 81 new riot laws last year because of all the rioting. It has nothing to do with race, Dems voted for it too. I guess they’re racist now too?

There is a significant difference between plowing into a crowd of people and fleeing the scene when you feel your life is in danger. There’s also law to protect protesters who have someone drive into a crowd like in Charlottesville. The driver got two life sentences so justice was served.

I think you could draft someone like Zaven Collins....OLB Tulsa. He would be our Lorax where on 3rd down, he rushes the passer and take our 1 tech off the field. Taron Johnson stays on the field.

If I said "yes", what will it say about our conversation? What does it say about the players, coaches and other fans who voted for him? I don't break down the film because I don't have film....I also can't break down MLB position. You don't either. I rely on people here who know more about the X's and O's than I do but also know they are watching it on broadcast view. This is their opinion on what they see. But just like Eric Wood stated, it's hard to grade players on film when you don't know the play call or the assignments. You might think its that persons fault but it actually wasn't. He gave examples with him. Gilmore anyone? He was the most criticized player on the defense when he was here. He goes to NE and 2 years later wins the MVP. Again, McDermott isn't afraid to make a change. He's done it a lot. They are keeping Edmunds out there, they aren't moving him to OLB like a lot of people on here suggest. They haven't tried to replace him or taken him off the field...he's there nearly 100% of the time. Actions speak and what are the actions saying? Am I allowed to have my own stance?

I thought you were originally including White like Scott was but you weren't....you can disregard. Here's my stance. Since we offered the contract to Milano and wanted to keep them, I trust they know his importance to the defense. You say you have eyes, so do they. Edmunds has been voted to the Pro Bowl twice. It's a 1/3 fans, coaches and players. What fans outside of Buffalo is voting for Edmunds? This doesn't prove he's great but it does show he's not awful like you say he is. The Bills will pick up his 5th year option. McDermott isn't afraid to make changes and he's not doing it here.

It seems if any has a counter argument, you just don't like it. What did Kelce do to us in the first game? That doesn't count? I provided a few links about White struggling this season in coverage. The Bucs Nation site breaks it down with film and this guy has watched White more than you have by A LOT.

If you're going to use stats.... @ScottLaw https://touchdownwire.usatoday.com/lists/anatomy-of-a-divisional-round-win-buccaneers-need-to-eliminate-devin-whites-reverse-gear/ That said, there are times when even the best linebackers should have their roles reduced from a variety perspective. Devin White, the second-year star for the Buccaneers, has the most sacks among off-the-ball ‘backers with nine, the second-most total pressures with 31, the fifth-most stops with 56, and the ninth-most tackles with 95. That’s the good side. The bad side? Per Pro Football Focus, White has the most targets in coverage among off-ball ‘backers with 98, and he’s allowed the most catches (86) for the most receiving yards (761), the second-most yards after catch (410), the second-most touchdowns allowed (four, tied with several other linebackers), and an opponent passer rating of 112.6. If White has an absolute dominant trait to his game, it’s his knack for creating quarterback pressure. If there’s an obvious liability, it’s White’s ability to hold up in coverage. That may change over time given White’s eagerness to improve, game intelligence, and physical gifts, but we are where we are with this. https://www.si.com/nfl/buccaneers/news/tampa-bay-buccaneers-devin-white-new-orleans-saints-coverage-playoffs However, if there's one area the arguable Pro Bowl snub could improve, it's in coverage. Pro Football Focus dings White for allowing 87.8% of his 98 targets this season to have been caught, with opposing pass-catchers tallying 761 yards and four touchdowns against White in coverage. Specifically, New Orleans Saints passers completed 15-of-17 passes against White in the NFC South rivals' two matchups this year. And the Buccaneers face the Saints this Sunday in the Divisional Round of the playoffs. White failed to improve much in coverage as the season went along. Following the second Saints contest, he allowed 39-of-44 passes to be caught against him, for 299 yards and a touchdown. https://www.bucsnation.com/2021/3/15/22329516/bucs-nfl-super-bowl-lv-getting-better-to-be-the-best-devin-white Here's the Bucs site talking about his struggles in coverage during the season. And yes, they do end it by saying his coverage ability improved in the playoffs. But to say Milano doesn't hold a candle to him based on 4 games doesn't seem strong. He has the benefit of a much better pass rush as well. So in 2019, we all knew that White had difficulties in coverage, but we all had the assumption that he would improve in this area before the 2020 season started. Well, without an off-season due to COVID-19, it was really tough for second year players to improve from the mistakes they made in year one. For White, this was also true..... White was not all that great in coverage prior to the bye week in 2020. According to SIS, he only had five incompletions when targeted in the first 12 games. However, he was able to overcome some of these early struggles, which can be seen statistically through the additional five incompletions that he tallied when targeted in only three games post-bye (he missed Week 17 due to COVID). From what I saw, the two biggest issues White had early on were his drop angle, and his tendency to fixate on the eyes of the quarterback and lose focus on the receivers in the area.... His improvement in pass coverage was incredibly apparent during the playoffs, and especially the Super Bowl where he got to end the Chiefs hopes with “one last indignity” after intercepting Mahomes in the end zone

In 2019, we had of the better teams in covering tight ends. If David had the same pass rush with the front 4 as Milano/Edmunds had last year, David is surely not “shutting down” Kelce. I think you’re really reaching with the “8-82, 3 ypc below is season average” as proof David covered him well. Well his 8 catches were above his season average. That’s cherry picking. Kelce was held to 3 catches twice in the season. Does than mean those linebackers were unbelievable in coverage that game? A great player isn’t going to dominate every game. In a 16 game season, they are going be above and below their season average for a myriad of reasons.

And that’s because of David? What about Tyreek Hill? Was he stopped too? He had 8 catches in the first game for 82 yards. If TB does get pressure with their front 4 all game long, David isn’t keeping up with Kelce. Kelce does what he did against us. Same with Hill.

Yes but its not like he was stopped or covered well.

As in this coming season Star will not be here?

Do you think there was a body in the trunk?

How do college and high school football QB’s do it then?

Kelce in 2 games against TB had 18 catches and 200 yards receiving....

Did he take the cannoli's?

LOL, I was I was addressing the points. You weren’t smart enough to understand the law you just read and posted it like it helped your stance 😂. You didn’t know how to interpret it and you’re telling us about the law 😂 And guess what? A few Dems votes for it too.

Dude, I gave you an example of a girl I personally know that has a cinder block through her windshield. Your reply was "cute story bro". You obviously wouldn't have cared if she got hurt, she doesn't matter. It's just a "cute story" GTFO. What would you have done if someone through a cinder block through your windshield? Yes, there is a law for it. If you feel you're endangered, you can take action to defend yourself. I didn't vote for Trump so that has nothing to do with it. This is just common sense. Driving a car into a crowd with the intent to just hurt is different than driving away from violent protesters who are trying to hurt you. Yes, the ones who drive into crowds should be punished to the full extent and deserves to get hurt. Someone running over someone because they're being attacked...the attackers deserve to get hurt. You're just rambling on without logically thinking. I mean you posted a law that you completely misinterpreted thinking it helped your argument lol.

Okay so if you are attacked while in your car. You're not allowed to drive if someone is in front of you. You just have to take the beating.

You have no idea what the draft board looks like so you cannot say these are just "need" picks. You're basically saying every single time you improve a weakness in the draft, it's a need pick and not BPA. Why would someone draft a position they don't need at all? Would it make sense for us or KC to draft a QB in the first round? Would it make sense for the Bucs to draft a MLB? Would it make sense for the Pats to draft a tight end? You always criticize Beane for drafting players to improve areas for whatever reason. The Jags and Jets both need QB's and they're both drafting QB's....need pick. We have no idea what Beane's draft board looks like. It's just childish for Ethan to call Beane an idiot and a liar.

Awesome thread!

Yes, that driver deserves the hardest punishment. But are you saying since Charlottesville happened, even if a driver is in immediate danger, they can’t drive off? If I’m in my truck and I have protesters breaking my windows and trying to get inside, I’m driving off. That’s just common sense.

WTF

But at the same time, drivers had to protect themselves as well. A friend of mine was driving a car last summer and was at a stop light. Next thing she knows, a cinder block was thrown at her windshield. Then these protesters were trying to open her car door but it was locked....she sped off. She didn't hit anyone but if the scene had gotten worse, I think she has every right to forcefully drive to her safety.

Pretty stupid tweet "King" James. I guess that girl who was about to get stabbed and probably murdered....her life didn't matter. Only the life of the black girl shot by the white cop. What if the cop didn't shoot Ma'Khia and she ended up killing the other girl? What would you have tweeted then Le'Bron?
