    It would be helpful if you actually posted what you’re referring to.

     

    Edit:  saw it downthread.  Green is just parroting the “if you don’t win a title you’re nothing” b.s.  He likely has no knowledge of Allen’s playoff stats or prior heroics.

     

     


    It’s fun standard. There are, what, 4 of “the guy” in the league right now (I’m sure I’m missing a few)? He’s no Joe Flacco.

    What’s the difference between a dead skunk in the road and a dead lawyer in the road?

    I just assumed the answer was “nothing”

  3. I see kids riding these things on the road all the time with no regard for traffic laws. They’re a problem. It’s a little different but a couple months back I was at the gas station and some kids had taken their quad over there to grab some food. A cop happened to pull in for some gas of his own and then hilarity ensued. I wish I could have stuck around to see when the parents showed up.

    NFL could fix this.

    Instead of giving the team with the worst record the 1st pick, give the team with the most wins after they have been eliminated from playoff contention.

    Gives teams incentive to win, and teams incentive to beat them.


    So the team in the crappy division just gets screwed over. Even the worst teams in a division are still mathematically alive when the first place team is around or below 500. I’d love to see someone put together the draft order based on this system. I bet the results would be very erratic and nonsensical.

    First coach hire behind an all-time type coach like BB is doomed, and they knew it. 


    My thoughts exactly. He was hired to fail but then the approach screwed them over in the end. I love it.

    I mean, it really isn't that hard. Hope these folks don't struggle as much with driving. 

     

    You mean the people who when driving down a residential road will give a bigger buffer to the parked car on the curb than the do to the oncoming car in the opposite lane?  It's the same people, I'm sure.

    Where's the fabrication?

     

    " The report found that Richie Incognito, John Jerry and Mike Pouncey harassed Martin, another offensive lineman and a member of the training staff. It described "sexually explicit remarks" about members of his family and said that "at times [Martin was] ridiculed with racial insults and other offensive comments."

     

    "His teammates called him names and said racist things to his face. They made misogynistic comments. On the spectrum of behavior in football locker rooms, it was extreme, he said."

     

    "He said most people, especially those who didn't play the game, might think what happened to him was bullying. But men who sweat and grunt and bang heads for a living often act a certain way when they are around each other."

     

    "I should have stood up to it more," he said. "I should have been like, 'Look, this is wrong.'"

     

    All he's saying now is that he wished he had handled it differently.

     

    Incognito did these things.  The article doesn't exonerate him in any way.

     


    I honestly don’t care one way or the other about this. But we do need to remember that this Wells report was paid for by the same organization where the only thing that came out of investigating Dan Snyder for being Dan Snyder was the blackballing of a guy who coached a completely different team. Their reports say whatever the NFL wants them to say.

    Myself personally, the Guardian cap and current top helmet makers need to come together and build a more trimmed down version. I'm not sure the same amount of interior protection is needed when more is provided on the exterior of the helmet. (speculation)

     

    Make it look good and not add extra weight players will wear it IMO.

     

     


    oh great, you’re removing interior padding now. Fortunately we’ll never see just how bad of an idea that is.

  8. I really don’t think any change is needed, but it could look pretty cool if they just projected some light up from the goal post. That makes seeing it that much easier for the guys below the posts. 
     

    With this and hockey, I’m can see why they might not want to put any ringing in there that could potentially change how a ball/puck bounces off of it.

    On Spencer Shrader - He was a UDFA from Notre Dame. He was only 15 of 22 (68.2%) his final year there.

     

    For the Jets - Against Houston he made 3 of 3 XPs, no FG attempts. Against Arizona he made 2 of 2 FGs, from 25 yards and 45 yards.


    I can’t root against this kid.
