  1. I gave an example up thread. When it gets to calling a deep throw that plainly went through the receivers hands and was catchable by Lawrence an "overthrow", while effusively praising Mahomes starting to scramble up the middle and then dirting the ball as "a fantastic effort", that goes beyond recognizing the skill of a superior play, and into "inability to see the game with objectivity or impartiality" eg, Bias. tying threads together
  2. He can be a tad biased, but at least he tries to be aware of it and counter it and move himself towards neutral Collinsworth has completely "jumped the shark" to me.
  3. Yeah, Lil Dirty did a risk evaluation there. "If I wrestle the alligator I might die, If I play chess I get my life back in 3 days" Winner. Drop 🎤
  4. There's an old farmer with an apple orchard at the back of his property, surrounding a pond. One late summer day he has a yen for an apple pie, so his wife tells him, "here, see if you can find enough early ripeners to fill this bucket and I'll bake one for you" As the farmer approaches the pond, he hears giggling and splashing. When the pond comes into sight, he sees piles of clothes on the bank, and four comely young women splashing in the pond. When they see him, they shriek and go deeper into the water. One of them calls out "Please! Don't make us get out of the water!" The farmer holds up the bucket and drawls "Oh, I'm not here to make you get out of the pond. I'm just here to feed the alligators!"
  5. That seemed to be Josh Allen's reaction, for sure. I think it's more he likes to play chess. He talked about it on Kyle's basement. Evidently plays remotely with his brother. I'm not surprised, I think of football as a giant chess game played IRL and I think to an extent, QB reading the football field pre- and post- snap to project what's going to happen and reading the chess board to see what the opponent's strategy is going to be require similar mental skills.
  6. That was my sense of humor, poking fun at the imagined sex life that leads you to come up with a comparison like that. Guess yours doesn't encompass being laughed at. And that's OK, just like your kink
  7. I am in awe Never could I have conceptualized putting Yoko Ono and "Black Dog" into the same musical performance. Did this actually occur, or is this an amazeballs flight of creative fancy? It wasn't the KC "knob slobbering" that got me it was the bizarre play evaluations, as when Lawrence placed a beautiful catchable deep ball that actually went through his WR hands and Collinsworth repeatedly insisted that he overthrew him; or, when Mahomes stumbled and threw a ball into the dirt and he started praising it as a fantastic play by Mahomes. That was "what are you ON?" time for me.
  8. This is total Ballocks. When you listen to either of them, you realize Daboll and Allen have a deep affection for each other. Josh is a "product" #1 of his own native talent and #2 of working with a number of people, including that biomechanics guy, his running coach (I haven't figured out who that was but Josh calls him "Flarebear" (Flahrbear?), Daboll (responsible for Josh's revelation that he could beat guys with his mind), and Ken Dorsey "my career changed when he walked into the building". Daniel Jones has improved immeasurably given a sensible offensive system and permission to run. The question Daboll and Schoen have to answer is "what's his ceiling?" I thought he kind of melted down yesterday, and overall, the Giants offense just looked slow to me.
  9. OMG that's perfect, I have to change. I've been saying he looks like a horse. Afghan Hound! He only threw 1 pick against the Chiffs though.
  10. Shaq Lawson wants the alligator: “I ain’t playin no 400 games…I don’t even know how to play 1 game” Josh Allen wants the chess. “I play it every day, anyway” Nyheim Hines and Lil’ Dirty also take the Chess. Everyone else seems to say “Bring on the Alligator”
  11. Wouldn’t expect one. He has a game status of “questionable” after Fri, he had an additional day to heal on Sat. Eli Apple practiced all week and has no game status - good to go. Trey Flowers is listed as “doubtful”
  12. Diggs, Davis, McKenzie, and Shakir are all capable of going deep. McKenzie and Shakir can scoot. If they really want a guy to run a clearing route, they could have Hines run a wheel from the backfield or the slot, he can scoot too.
  13. Wait and see who is actually on the gameday active roster tomorrow. Sometimes at the end of the season/playoffs they elevate a guy who has been a “good soldier” all season. It’s like a $28k bonus. I thought Rousseau, Epenesa, Basham and Lawson have been doing their jobs.
  14. Well as a game, that sucked - unless you’re an Eagles fan I guess
  15. Damn! Daniel Receivers are not helping him out At All
  16. Well, this is a total rout. Can’t blame the refs, can’t blame it all on Daniel Jones ‘cuz his receivers aren’t helping him out any, just total Giants meltdown on both sides of the ball Jones looks defeated already
  17. Unpopular view, probably, but Kelce didn’t destroy the Jags. He had 98 yds on 14 catches - he’s good, and he’s hard to stop, but other teams (cough) have given up >100 yds to Kelce and Smith-Schuster - and won (ahem) What killed the Jags were 2 turnovers, dropped catches, a couple of horrible penalties, and some crap tackling. And while the penalties were horrid, the Jags could likely have overcome them.
