SectionC3

Just imagine what those numbers would look like if there were "somebodys" there. Which is probably McD's point.

You have to understand McDermott to get the anger. Ingram is a kid who scrapped, and worked, and who was respectful, and who came from nothing and never gave up. McD is sort of similar - high school wrestler, undersized, all hustle, hardworking, focused, etc. @GunnerBill is probably dead on with the Keon suggestion. Coleman is a non malevolent bonehead who is immature and plays too many video games and has no attention to detail. That goof sticking while Ingram walks out the door for nothing has got to infuriate McD. What most people also don't understand is that guys like Marino and Tim Graham hear stuff they can't report. So when you get these little nuggets from each of them . . . treat it as a little bit of subtly-identified smoke.

I wouldn't be so sure about that. No inside knowledge, but that guy is a good, experienced reporter. They often hear stuff they can't report. This type of thing is something that easily could be seen as (and something I view as) dropping a hint.

Graham posted something about how McDermott could best be described as "seething" following the loss of Ingram as a corollary to the non-appearance of Slay.

If things end badly, then I would not be shocked if Beane is let go. I read the Tim Graham post as the big hint of tension in that relationship.

What would your move be in this situation?

What of it’s a one game injury? Would you let Trunisky walk right now to play for the colts? I wouldn’t.

Barry Switzer adores you right now. I’m with you. That Tim Graham post about Ingram was telling. I have no doubt that McD is unhappy with Beane.

I was watching the ball, but I'll take your word for it on coverage. You'd think the 40 yard touchdown and third and 15 would have put them in zone. Completely agree.

Totally reasonable. All of it. My view was based on sitting (standing) there for three hours and being wet (snow melts on you after awhile) and a little cold. But your “math” is just as fair on this one.

I just finished the game on DVR. That was a painful game if you're an Eagles fan. That offense is mired in a lot of mud. QB is a mess.

One more collapse would be the Texans/Chargers. With the Chargers winning last night, it's the Texans at issue. Assuming the tiebreakers there inure to the Bengals' benefit. And what if Burrow gets hurt in advance of the last game of the season, with the division on the line? I'd rather have Flacco than Browning if I'm them.

It worked out for Taylor on that one. Or it least it should have, but for a Superman scramble by Allen. But I'm with the other guy. They had to go three and out, anyways. There's snow all over the place, the balls have been freezing for three hours, and the game was already crazy. I would have taken the shot at the onsides and sacrificed the 30 +/- yards if I didn't get it knowing that I was in three and out territory anyways.

I would. The colts are a mess and one other collapse could get the bengals a WC. No way I let him go if I’m them. Not to mention they might need him at some point the rest of the way.

And his arm was shot.

Favre. And, for someone upthread, when Marino blew out his Achilles I believe DeBerg played the majority of that year for the Dolphins at 44. EDIT - he might have been about 40 with the Dolphins, and back later with the Falcons at 44.

Today, I thought, was crazier in terms of swings in win percentage. The Ravens probably was more improbable. Both were great. Maybe it's recency bias. I was dumbfounded by the turn of events in the stadium today. The win against the Ravens was a bit more inevitable in terms of minutes and second in the stadium. This thing was a nail biter right up until Josh picked up the first down.

Steelers, and. yes, they pushed a lot of rubber pellets off of the field.

This one is on the list. Wow. I should have included broncos 1990 because that’s how improbable and fast today’s turnaround seemed.

Just went outside in OP very near the stadium. The weather is literally just like the Bengals playoff game here. Certain nonsense the night before also did not help. But yes, we were gassed and drained by that time.

Better than reading it and supporting the BS that you prefer.

It’s a little snowy now but I read every day. Give it a shot. Instead of thinking about your orifice of carnal desire.

Hoax. I actually agree with Charlie Kirk on this one. Feel some grass and read scripture. Give it a try.

You and your MAGA pals should start embracing the faith, piggy.

You and I disagree on politics, but we otherwise think alike. I love that S. Us against the world. F slay. I would have let him go until he ran his mouth. Now he can sit.
