Knox does not have natural ability to catch the ball like Kincaid does. On the last TD drive Josh threw to Kincaid on the critical 4th down. Kincaid should be the first pass option over Knox moving forward.

Gabe is completely ineffective as WR 2.
Hopefully, this game was the start of Kincaid over Knox as an offensive target.

Is Von Miller still on this team? Can’t tell but watching multiple games.
I didn’t see him on the field today

Can someone wake up Davis…

Is Davis on the field in this game?

Kincaid should have been running that route instead of Knox

The Palestinians will never get a better deal than what was offered in 2000.

This circus demonstrates that the current Republican Party is unfit for a leadership role. They function best as a minority party that can throw stones from the sidelines, generate content for their social media and show their supporters that they are “fighters”. As a minority party, they don’t need to agree on anything, they don’t need to propose anything, and they don’t need to compromise on anything. They can just be the party of “No” which is what they love.
For years they have been stoking a culture where any compromise with Dems is evil and means you are a RINO who must be ejected from the party. Now the extreme fringe are piloting the ship and they don’t have a clue what direction to go.

If you don’t mind me asking but what compelled you to look into for yourself? I wish more people would.
For decades I’ve watched 30 second reports on the evening news about violence erupting in Israel. American news presents the Israel side of the conflict - understandable now after the horrific violence committed by Hamas. I’m a curious person who tries to understand the world. YouTube is my gateway to the world, to lands I will never be able to visit. It’s not hard to learn, if you want to.
Im no expert. I’m just an ignorant American trying to understand a problem no one has a solution for. We seem to be entering a new chapter in this conflict. The idea of peace seems to be gone for now due to the actions of Hamas. Hopefully it doesn’t become a wider regional war.

Michelle Goldberg is a liberal NY Times columnist. I generally don't agree with her columns. But this one is very solid and fair. It is not Twitter/X. You need to actually read a few paragraphs (a lost art around here) instead of an inflammatory 200 character characterization.
https://www.nytimes.com/2023/10/20/opinion/israel-war-gaza-hospital-danger.html
Of course, I’d read Israel’s insistence that an errant Islamic Jihad rocket had caused the explosion at the hospital, but I didn’t put much stock in it, because in the past when Israel accidentally killed civilians, it has blamed Palestinians for the deaths. In May of last year, the Palestinian American journalist Shireen Abu Akleh was shot and killed while covering an Israeli raid on the Jenin refugee camp. Israeli officials said she was shot either by a Palestinian or by an Israeli soldier aiming at a Palestinian gunman. A New York Times investigation, however, contradicted the official Israeli line. It found that the bullet that killed Abu Akleh was fired from the direction of an Israeli military convoy and that “there were no armed Palestinians near her when she was shot.”
A few months later, during another round of Israeli bombing of Gaza, five Palestinian boys were killed in a cemetery. Initially, Israeli officials blamed a misfired Islamic Jihad rocket for the deaths. But as the Israeli newspaper Haaretz reported, an army inquiry found they were actually killed by an Israeli airstrike. With the hospital explosion, it seemed history was repeating itself on a larger and more tragic scale.
Perhaps it was, just not in the way I thought. As I write this, it looks increasingly likely that Israel was correct about an Islamic Jihad rocket hitting Al-Ahli hospital. That, at least, is what both early American intelligence and a number of independent experts have found. If their analysis holds up, it means the best analogy for this world-convulsing event is not the killings of five boys in Gaza last year. It is the myth of a massacre at the Jenin refugee camp in 2002.
The first casualty of war is the truth.

Can you share the link please? I too have been trying to understand this better. I really don't even understand the terminology like settlers,open air prison, settlements, colonialism, occupation, etc. at this point. I've watched a few videos and read some but am still confused.
Here are a few I found enlightening.

Over the years, decades, I haven’t really understood the complexities of the Palestinian- Israel conflict. I recently watched several YouTube documentaries on the history of the West Bank. My only reaction was shock and disbelief. The Israli government policy of supporting the settlements and regulating, through military force, every aspect of Palestinian lives there is crazy. The Jewish settlers see nothing wrong with expanding the settlements. If, like me, you were ignorant about this issue, educate yourself. Unfortunately, I don’t see how this conflict will ever be resolved.

Maybe little Jared can send some of the billions the Saudis gave him over to Israel to help the war against the terrorists.

I just saw this- are being trying to be serious?
My point was that anyone who has a gun needs to have a perfect, clear, rational mind at all times or tragedy can occur. Accidental shootings happen all the time due to careless gun owners who are not responsible, or make mental mistakes. People aren’t perfect and sadly innocent people suffer.
Baldwin should be guilty of involuntary manslaughter. He fired the gun. The gun didn’t fire by itself. He knew the real gun was on the movie grounds. He knew real ammunition was on the movie grounds. He was the director with the most knowledge and experience. He chose to hire a completely inexperienced armorer girl to be in charge of the firearms. He was irresponsible in his handling of the gun. A real gun with real ammo should never have been on the movie grounds in the first place.

From 2014-2020, UN agencies spent nearly $4.5 billion in Gaza, including $600 million in 2020 alone. More than 80% of that funding is channeled through the UN agency for Palestinian refugees, who make up three-fourths of Gaza’s population. Some 280,000 children in Gaza attend schools run by UNRWA, which also provides health services and food aid.
— Qatar has provided $1.3 billion in aid to Gaza since 2012 for construction, health services and agriculture. That includes $360 million pledged in January for 2021 and another $500 million pledged for reconstruction after the war in May. Qatar’s aid also goes to needy families and to help pay Hamas government salaries.
— The Palestinian Authority says it will spend $1.7 billion on Gaza this year, (2021) mainly on salaries for tens of thousands of civil servants who stopped working when Hamas took over in 2007.
https://www.timesofisrael.com/where-do-the-billions-of-dollars-in-foreign-aid-to-gaza-really-go/
So Hamas relies on funding from the good will of other countries to take care of their own people. Israel provides them with water and electricity. Then they literally attack the hand that feeds them. I would think the people in Gaza would support getting rid of Hamas based on their performance as a ruling party.

Stop all donations to them. Void all degrees of this guy is still teaching there.
Anyone professor who thinks terrorism is exhilarating needs to be relieved of their employment. You have the freedom of speech in this country. You don’t have the freedom of consequences when you act like a moron. He should move over to Gaza if he wants to support Hamas.

Serious question. What’s the schematic advantage to playing under center? What are all you guys looking to get out of that?
It forces the D to honor the possibility of a run with play action pass. Less predictable for pass rushers

If the Iron Beam works, it would be a game changer. It has a range of about 4 miles, could be mounted on drones or satellites, could rapidly fire at incoming misses at speed of light to take out multiple targets and costs only a few bucks per shot. It’s like something from a science fiction movie but could become a reality.

The media repeatedly reports that Gaza Strip is one of the most densely populated areas in the world. Population density there is about 8,000 people per square km. That doesn’t rank in the top 50 most densely populated cities which have densities ranging from 17,261 to 42,942 people per square km. So yes, obviously alot of people live there but there is nothing special about its population density compared to other cities.

Interesting that no other Arab nations are volunteering a peace plan or help for Palestinian refugees.

The inconsistency of the offense for this team is maddening. This loss is collectively on the offense. The D more than did their part given the dire circumstances they were dealt.
Teams like Philly, SanFran and KC don’t drop a game like this one. They just take care of business and move on. We will be second tier until we can avoid these types of losses. Dorsey and Allen better figure it out because the O is going to need to carry this team moving forward.

The season is a war of attrition for every team. Who can make it healthy in the end, in addition to the luck and talent factors into the equation of who can win it all.

I think Josh’s shoulder is hurt again. He had some unusual bad misses on throws today.
