  1. https://www.google.com/search?q=lamps&rlz=1CAACAG_enUS598US598&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwiJprP7_L7WAhVDyFQKHQTvDUIQ_AUICygC&biw=1242&bih=573 Next man up...
  2. And play man on man. White was touted as being a great fit in McD's zone scheme. But what's been really noticeable thee games in is that he's scheme-agnostic and can play any way they need. That's a BIG positive for such a tough position...
  3. Especially impressive since many of his most important plays were with his feet...
  4. No push in the run game, lots of pressure given up on the pass rush. TT bailed him out a few times on what would have been sacks with a less mobile QB. Still a rookie. Still a work in progress...
  5. QB has to make better decisions in those circumstanstance. I'm happy he did not....
  6. Interceptions on thows that shouldn't have been made help, too...
  7. Playing in the SEC and Pac-10 is a bit higher level of competition than the American Athletic Conference. I'm sure Woods and Sammy were a lot more comfotrtable playing on a big NFL stage as rookies than Zay has appeard so far...
  8. Very gutty win. The most complete game they've played in a long time. The team is playing for each other, which is a big tip of the hat to coach McD and his "process." Still, I'm concerned about the OL's effectiveness. They may not face another defense as good as Denver's for a while, but are likely to see a lot of 7-8 man fronts until the passing game becomes more of a threat. Right now the run blocking and/or scheme (too much stretch, IMO) just isn't getting it done, which is a heavy load for TT to carry. He stepped up today, but can he do it week in and week out? Still an open question...
  9. He's had some attempts that would be difficult for seasoned vets. That ball that bounced off his hands in the EZ today was catchable, but tough nevertheless. Still, it bears watching. I thought his technique was weak on the ball he droped in the Carolina game--jumped unnecessarily and/or too soon, making the attempt that much harder than it needed to be.
  10. The NFL is a lot faster than the games at East Carolina State. The wheels in his head are tuning too slowly, but that shold change as the season progresses. A bit of diffence in level of competition: https://www.sports-reference.com/cfb/conferences/american/2016.html
  11. And tear yourself away from another 12-hour day posting a 100+ comments on a message board?? Fake news...
  12. Well, with 110 posts today since noon, your days must be really long.....
  13. Nah. Life's too important to sit in front of a keyboard all day. Tick tock...

  15. Green Bay's a liberal town?
  16. Wow. Didn't expect this (more to come, I suspect): http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000000849571/article/nfl-owners-ceos-respond-to-trump-comments
  17. Not much 'bend' in that trend... https://www.google.com/url?sa=i&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=images&cd=&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=0ahUKEwjM29_nnbzWAhWEPiYKHSUOCGgQjRwIBw&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.infomine.com%2Finvestment%2Fstock-markets%2Findexes%2Fgspc%2F5-year%2F&psig=AFQjCNGa07b_QXxHLaonyFvKphnaMOXp8A&ust=1506287868560077
  18. Peter King weighs in.... https://www.si.com/nfl/2017/09/23/trump-nfl-fire-players-who-protest-during-anthem
  19. Here's what he said: http://www.businessinsider.com/trump-nfl-national-anthem-protest-alabama-rally-2017-9 "...Trump went on to suggest that NFL ratings were down because of stricter penalties on hard tackles: "Because you know, today if you hit too hard — 15 yards! Throw him out of the game. They had that last week, I watched for a coupled of minutes. Two guys, just really, beautiful tackle. Boom! 15 yards. The referee goes on television, his wife's so proud of him. They're ruining the game! They're ruining the game."
  20. While the stoic tRump fans just shake their heads and keep on with what they were doing...

  22. Hey, no fair trying to take our min....min....minds off the...off the...off....
  23. Yeah, I doubt these are big sellers to the PPP croud: https://www.google.com/search?q=Aspen+Snowflake+Mirror&rlz=1CAACAG_enUS598US598&tbm=isch&tbo=u&source=univ&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjT--SY_rvWAhVDOCYKHXwACRcQsAQILQ&biw=1242&bih=573#imgrc=xQwRmekFXjtiqM:
  24. Apparently J Burton has a reading / thinking / understanding of the English language problem. I hope he gets help for that problem. But I'm not holding my breath...
