  1. Yeah, that was rough. Most interesting part of the entire video was Josh and Bass talking about how it's difficult to tell the wind patterns in the stadium.
  2. This stinks of Oher wanting a Payday. The Tuohy is far wealthier than Oher ever was and ever will be. Why would a family that sold their company for the equivalent of $385 MILLION dollars, need to gain a few extra million from Oher? It is nonsensical. We are not talking about wealthy people. We are talking about uber rich people.
  3. Yep, that’s definitely some fences and dirt. Just kidding, thanks for posting.
  4. I know who you mean, but seeing “Allen” in this sentence still upsets me a little. 😂
  5. You're on to something here. We could arrange a three-team greyhound contract that ensure every team gets what they deserve. The players that Carolina, Buffalo and NY don't want... get sent right to South Beach.
  6. Even if it was one dollar… the fact is that I as a taxpayer am a stakeholder in the stadium. This is called an Appeal to Futility and it is very dangerous. Appeal to futility is a problematic rhetorical tactic that can stifle progress and innovation. By insisting that efforts are in vain and won't lead to any meaningful change, it dissuades people from taking action or exploring different perspectives. Historically, this fallacy has been employed to thwart vital social movements and significant personal decisions. By negating the power of collective or personal action, the appeal to futility restricts growth and undermines core democratic principles. It's a flawed and detrimental way to engage in discourse.
  7. And that’s the correct viewpoint to have considering that you are not paying for it. But for those of us who are paying for it, I believe we have the right to be critical of the fact that our dollars are not, in our opinion, being efficiently spent.
  8. I agree Indy is sterile. But you feel that Minnesota’s stadium (photo below) is sterile?
  9. In what ways do you feel that the new stadium will be significantly better for game-day experience? Here is what I have considered: - Wider concourses will nicer for fans to move through. - Newer bathrooms will be nice. - The overhang will be nice for those who are actually shielded by it (none of the lower bowl, it appears). - We currently have one of the best sight line stadiums in the NFL, and it blows away the sight lines of newer stadiums, so I don’t see that being much better. Nothing sterile about this: Bright, airy, temperature-controlled, loud, comfortable…
  10. That's what I was thinking as well. The entire lower bowl looks uncovered. And wouldn't this design make the upper bowl the more desired seats?
  11. Are these typically accurate? Meaning, the amount of seats shown without a roof over it is likely true?
  12. Yes! Between him and Singletary, we had very little playmaking ability to take advantage of defenses that collapsed on the tackle box.
  13. Kyle Allen is so bad that it makes me upset that we didn’t pursue a better backup option. Maybe there was literally no one else available? I haven’t checked. Absolutely anyone has to be better than what he has shown throughout camp and in this game. If Allen goes down for ANY amount of time - even one game - I find little optimism for a route for us to produce a win.
  14. I think that is a fair point. He is old-reliable … steady. And his pass blocking was top notch. But our offense really lacked playmakers, so i’m happy we upgraded in that department.
  15. No he didn’t. He went straight through the 4 hole. But even in an alternate universe where he bounced it out, the fact that he couldn’t make one edge contain miss is also a massive problem of his.
  16. Posted this in the game day thread as well, but Cook already has me excited for this season. His vision to bounce runs outside is something we have missed for many years when Singletary was the running back. I have no doubt that Singletary plows into the line rather than bouncing it outside for the TD on this play: Here is what Singletary frustratingly has done all too often:

  18. It is unbridled optimism based on nothing other than hope.
  19. Of course Minneapolis has culture. You see it in the art - bold and unpretentious. Museums like the Minneapolis Institute of Art, the Walker Art Center. Music, theater, dance. It's there in the streets, in the festivals, in the food. People live it. It's real, simple, and true. No frills, just the essence of the place. Why? That certainly removes Jacksonville from the list.
  20. You’re likely correct in that assertion, however I think they are making a mistake. I think it would be fun to have the game in all different atmospheres, cultures, etc.
  21. You just described Super Bowl XLVIII in New Jersey. It snowed half a foot the day after the game.
  22. Your exact words were: “If the bills squib kicked in that playoff game (the Chiefs are) falling on it and stopping the clock without a doubt” No mention of scenarios where they would or wouldn’t have downed it. “without a doubt”, they would have downed it. That’s what you said. But I don’t want my opinion on this to be seen as crusading, so i’m stopping here. Good night! .
  23. The discussion wasn’t where they would run it to or how many plays until field goal range. The discussion was wether they would have immediately downed the ball. The goals posts are swaying strong tonight.
  24. Chaos (perhaps inadvertently) started it. Until we win a Super Bowl, I doubt 13 seconds ever goes away.
  25. He said anything less than a squib caught at the 40, they were going to return. So… yeah, they were returning it. The 40 was their goal line. But sure, keep moving the goal posts in an attempt to save what’s left of your dignity after going off about forgetting more than i’ve ever known about football. I let you do it just long enough while holding the Chiefs own ST’s coach card in my pocket. So far we have: Bills coach disagrees with you. Former NFL players disagree with you. Chiefs coach disagrees with you. But you’ve coached high school football! How dare they? Thanks for the laughs. I’m going to bed. Goodnight
