  1. Not with the way the referees call penalties. A few games aside I haven’t really paid attention to Parsons while he was in Dallas. I’ve seen four GB games this year and it seems like the refs haven’t been calling blatant/flagrant holding on him or Gary since week one — not arm bar stuff, but legit headlock from behind holding. Honestly feels like Oline penalties have been selective all year for most teams though. Holding, false starts, illegal cut blocks, etc seem to be more subjective than normal this year.
  2. I understand that it’s a passing league, but I will never understand only playing small faster LBers without dominant DTs that can keep them free to flow…. or at least a solid run stuffing 1T.
  3. If Wade Phillips had JA17 instead of Flutie/Johnson he’d likely had several SB visits and at least one win.
  4. He’s a rookie and he came into the season with a back injury which at his size could be aggravated with too much of a workload too quickly.
  5. He absolutely has more upside. The concerns are improving technique, increasing lower body strength, and staying healthy with his back condition. Kid certainly has the talent to be a top DT
  6. Two aspects you’re missing with how Coleman fits into everybody eats and separation are 1. Everybody eats includes the running backs, WR screens, and relies on YAC. Having WRs that can effectively block downfield adds to that. 2. Larger WRs that can high-point the ball is a form of separation, especially in the red zone where speed is mitigated. It’s certainly debatable if those particular skill fits were worth a trade down and high 2nd round pick when you could get that from a Mack Hollins. That said, neither Kincaid nor any of the other WRs on this roster were proven commodities with those traits. That aside, I wasn’t particularly fond of Worthy or Coleman pre draft.
  7. Maybe waiting by the back entrance for an escort to be dropped off?
  8. Easy now with Waze and car navigation, but back in the day…. “How the hell did I end up in Jersey?” 😆
  9. It’s that bad because of what the refs got away with after that Saints PI no call…. All of the coach challenges that were denied even though everyone with eyes could see what happened. Couple that with the league capitulating to the ref union after that Packers/Seahawks replacement ref game and…. Unchecked egos from the officials and support of the owners.
  10. OMG! THE 2ND ROUND WR ISN’T JAMAR CHASE!!!! BURN BEANE AT THE STAKE!!!!
  11. All I can come up with is Arizona Iced Tea. That’ll probably change when the owner dies or retires though.
  12. That’s a fact. I was at a traffic light in Clermont, FL where two guys were raging and arguing. One got out and put about five rounds in the other’s car. Crazy and stupid. Most likely. Knives are more dangerous than many think. Two decades ago I was outside a bar smoking with some random chick. A dude grabbed her purse and took off, I chased him and grabbed it, and he turned around and stabbed me in the gut. MD at the ER told me that if I didn’t have mesh in my abdomen from a previous surgery the stab wound probably would have been fatal.
  13. Ternary outhouse races for sure. https://visitescanaba.com/blog/trenary-outhouse-races#:~:text=The Trenary Outhouse Races are a quirky,annually on the last Saturday in February.
  14. Rather pay a run stuffing 1T with a bit of pass rushing upside than pay for a starting 3T. Substantial price difference between the two.
  15. That whole coaching tree — Shanny, McVay, LeFleur, O’Connell, etc — plays each other closely in most games. The only exception is McDaniels who seems to crap the bed against all of them.
  16. As the “4th” I can confirm this. I can also confirm that it can be a legal nightmare ate times, especially when the birth certificate uses Roman numerals. My personal favorite was getting popped for driving without insurance because the insurance agent applied my payment to my father’s account. 🤦‍♂️
  17. This… generally those 3rd round or later guys who turn into great players overcome some legitimate concern — character issues, injuries, lack of development, athletic/size deficiencies — to become excellent starters. It usually takes them some time coupled with solid coaching and top effort to break through. The occasional revelation — Elvis Dumervil — aside it’s a rarity for these guys to pop year one.
  18. Josh decided “F it” it’s time to Josh.
  19. As do I, but the drawbacks to that methodology are showing.
  20. That’s on Babich and the defensive assistants. Honestly, it might be time for McD to go outside the organization and get some fresh concepts in here.
  21. You can add Midwest and southern/Texan Germans to that equation. That post church Sunday meal is Weiner schnitzel, Kartoffelsalat, etc followed by brandy, schnapps, beer and football.
  22. IDK. It would have been fun to see him pull in the int and rumble down the field.
  23. It’s more likely that they do a restructure that gives him guaranteed cash to keep him happy. It’s cash in hand, and Beane uses that tactic frequently to keep players content while manipulating the salary cap.
  24. He’s been scraping across the formation and covering for Bosas aggressiveness by containing both sides of the LOS. It’s weird, and I hope a reporter asks about that.
