  1. Do any of the WRs play special teams? If we keep 7, teams play will probably be essential to the selection.
  2. We can't keep giving stuff like this an excuse. That type of behavior is wrong in any sports setting no matter how you slice it. If you keep making excuses for impulsive people, they stay impulsive for the rest of their lives.
  3. Didn't Dick Vermeil do this when he was a head coach? Hold dinners for each position group throughout the year? He even had his own vineyard.
  4. There will be a time when no one left alive remembers where pumping their brakes came from. Does it transcend from analogy to idiom after that point?
  5. It drives me nuts how many people confuse QBR (a proprietary stat created by ESPN) with Passer Rating. Like the OP. To your point though, I agree about passer rating. It's entirely arbitrary. In order to get a 158.3, you need to have at least 77.5% completion percentage and 12.5 yards per attempt. Why 77.5%? Why 12.5? Just because? It's very silly on its own, but it's still a useful "at a glance" stat.
  6. I loved when they just started going into the nitty gritty details about all their throwing nuances. It really puts the whole coaching emphasis on mechanics into perspective. Very insightful.
  7. Run now, quick! Save yourself!
  8. Different world of everything really. Most are completely disconnected from the reality that the rest of us face daily.
  9. Interesting. I wonder if the player agents get something out of it upfront if they manage to negotiate a slightly higher contract, even if it's not guaranteed.
  10. I haven't argued anything of the sort. It was just the first thing that popped into my head after reading that list...
  11. Peterman ahead of Anderson and Barkley? Idk about that ranking...
  12. His Wiki page needs a post-wrecks update. The last thing about him says he switched to 3-4 OLB.
  13. Who was the last above average RT the Bills had? Brad Butler?
  14. Wait. The last doctor I had would frequently get takeout lunches delivered by this guy in a suit and overcoat. I couldn't help but think "why is this well-dressed guy delivering lunch from Olive Garden? Must be a friend of the doc's or something." That SOB was probably a pharma rep!
  15. It's a shame that people with terminal illnesses can be strapped with such a financial burden in the richest country in the world.
  16. That's such a good scene.
  17. RIP Pancho. Viva Los Bills!
  18. Agree with other posters who say balance is key. The run-pass balance in the NFL is part of what makes it so much harder than other levels of football. Even the most pass-happy teams understand the value of running the football at the professional level. If you are equally good at running and passing, you make your offense much more difficult to defensively scheme against.
  19. I don't really have much else to say. It's just a feeling. You know how some players are especially entertaining to watch when they play? OJ is a textbook example. I just get the opposite feeling from the couple clips posted above of Sills. That's also the first and only time I've seen him, so maybe it's just in my head. But that was my first impression.
  20. Agreed.
  21. There's something about the way Sills moves that I just don't like.
  22. Who's the guy McDermott referred to that needed to be told where the A gap, B gap, and C gap are?
  23. I can see him filling a role for both the Pats and KC.
