Lock both these guys up and draft all Defense

Why doesnt the NFL bring in the Glenn Miller Orchestra so Mable and I can do the Charleston during halftime! Does it even count as music if there's no brass section?

For the sake of discussion. For the sake of having a better idea of who this team is when thinking about trends, averages, and predictability. Because we all know a 4-TO game is not the norm or anywhere near it for this team. It doesnt matter who we did it against. Because of this one game that padded the numbers, the stats do not provide an accurate representation of how the team plays. Have you been happy with the number of turnovers the Defense had created before last week? See. Same thing. For the sake of discussion. I absolutely agree. And I dont even count Josh's 2nd INT of the year when talking about Josh's performance since that one is on Andre Roberts. But I dont really expect any of the stats to change. They are what they are. Even though we know Josh doesnt have as big of an INT trend as the stats would say. Did I say we suck? I'm just trying to get a better idea of who this team is week over week. When you look at our performances, we are not a Defense that causes consistent turnovers. I dont care about the others teams. I'm talking about whether you can assume, based on stats vs actual play, that we will produce turnovers. I'm not petitioning the league to change the stats. This isnt that serious. Anyone who has Doug Forcett as their avatar, I got dibs on.

So if I'm reading this right, the Bills won the election?

You are correct. The "bar" has been set?

No offense to the Weeknd or any other SB halftime performer past, present or future... but the standard has been set, never to be broken, by the man, the myth, the legend... Prince Everyone needs to watch this 8min documentary. "Can you make it rain harder?"

What is this, Ozzfest?!?

The ONLY thing he is doing right now is making one last hail-mary grifting effort to scam money out of his idiotic (his words, because he despises them) base. None of the money he is asking for in his "legal fight" goes to the election recount. It gets split between the RNC and his pockets, so he can stuff them as he gets thrown out the door.

When I saw the title in the TBD preview, I thought this was going to be a Mrs Howell thread and thought "this may be a new low, even for OTW" although... I know for a fact some of us here have done worse...

From your Keyboard to McD's ears, I hope.

Absolutely. We are what our record and stats say we are. That's usually how I feel 99.999% of the time. But anomalies do get thrown out in stats and analytics for a reason. Just something to keep in mind. Now, if we string together a few more +4 TO games, then that will really be something.

We had 4 TOs against Seattle, right? 2 INTs and 2 Fumbles. Not to be a Debbie Downer, but that one feast game kinda skews our stats and standing. Without them, we'd be -1 in TO differential. Which is more indicative of our overall performance.

Yeah, it's kind of surprising. I knew we were doing better than last year, but that isnt saying much. I also need to look up where we rank in turnover differential. One of the biggest steps Josh has taken this year has been cutting out the turnovers. Even with those big numbers he put up last Sunday, the most impressive number was 0. No INTs, No Fumbles. Especially with getting sacked so many times.

LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!

Their work isnt much better. Just more words.

"The Two Bills" is a great 30 for 30 which has Parcells and Belichick sit down and reminisce through the old days. Couple of tough/ornery SOBs, that's for sure.

I was just busting your chops, man. It's all good.

I cant even get past your first short paragraph, so that's all I'm quoting. There are a TON of stats and studies available that prove the value of diversity and the advantage it gives companies. A quick google gives us a good starting point here, scroll down to the "Diversity Facts and Statistics" section. Companies that promote diversity typically see higher profits, make better decisions, and stay ahead of their industry better. This is not a business secret. Anyone who is in a leadership role or has taken a leadership course already knows this. To the bold: Wrong. Again, again, and once more... this is NOT about hiring HEAD COACHES. The Rooney Rule is about Head Coaches. This is about hiring assistant coaches. Two different rules covering two different things. And the Rooney Rule worked. The data is there. It was established in 2003. By 2006, the percentage of black coaches was up to 22%, from 6% prior to the Rooney Rule. You're looking to address this topic with a sledgehammer, but that's not how it works. Edit: I'm only cutting you off there because I'm trying to get us on the same terms. Right now we arent even in the same library, let alone same book, let alone on the same page. You are talking about "systemic racism and oppression" and that is not what is going on here. Same with what this new initiative is even meant to address. Luckily, we have Hapless around who is taking the time to show those differences in a much better way.

Haha, so you go from "I've never heard of them!" to "I dont want to hear them!" in 8min.

None of us here on the board are the target audience. We are already football fans who will be watching the Super Bowl. The halftime show is meant to draw non-football fans.

I believe it's been shown in other threads that they have had an incredibly easy schedule. They do look pretty good tho when all healthy.

A lot of wishful and selfish thinking in this thread. We'd all love for Josh to give the team a discount, but no way should he. Nor should he roll us over the coals. But there is no reason for a professional athlete playing in a multi-Billion dollar league, risking his body every week, should give his employer a discount. We can sign him to a fair deal and still have money to build the team around him.
