  1. It's coming from the social climate right now. Media is soooo irresponsible.
  2. For a little while I thought TT had made some progress with this. He's definitely done this, but not consistently enough. And I'm a huge TT fan, but he simply refuses to throw the ball to a WR or anyone who isn't wide open. That's not how the NFL works. We have talented WR's. These guys can make plays on the ball. TT should have watched Benjamin's highlights and then just chucked it up and high to him and watch as he came down with the ball most times. TT had his shot. Too scared to throw picks. Sucks. Same thing happened to EJ.
  3. Most fans either just don't believe in the concept of developing your own franchise quarterback or don't have the patience. So many good young prospects are never given a real chance. And people don't understand that when one or more of the key parts of a franchise isn't working (ownership, gm, scouts, capologist, head coach and his staff, quarterback, roster as a whole) the others can be seriously affected. Everyone has to be on the same page to create an environment where a player can even develop at all. Some Raiders fans are already calling Carr a bust. But what's changed over there? What's wrong with their organization? It's not like Carr all of a sudden sucks. My point is that Tyrod is a huge reason why this team is moving in the right direction. Finally. And don't under play the fact that his teammates voted him captain. He's a leader. Now that we have what looks like homeostasis in this organization, I think the environment is ripe for Tyrod to take significant steps forward. And many other players too.
  4. A lot of successful big yardage qb's do this OFTEN. The only time Tyrod ever tried this he threw for like 130 and two td's to Sammy alone in that KC game first half. He had some awesome throws that half but one of those Sammy tds' he threw it up for grabs and let the superior athlete (Sammy) out maneuver the CB and actually make an easy catch for a td.
  5. Yeah. I would rather continue to both develop Tyrod into our franchise quarterback and continue to build a team and friggin win games, not play fantasy football with roster spots.
  6. Posts like the OP's are embarrassing. Epitome of gut reaction to an incredibly small sample size. People said the same about Luck, Newton, Bortles, Winston, Dalton, etc. no Super Bowls for those guys and many of their biggest supporters off the band wagon. OP should learn how to count to ten, take a deep breath, and not post ridiculous threads.
  7. I agree. It's modern day Gladiator fighting and these guys now know that if they continue to do this as a career they will almost definitely suffer severe issues shortly after they retire that will affect them the rest of their lives. We simply were not meant to repeatedly bash our heads for long periods.
  8. Haha exactly. I've found a way to watch every Bills game for almost twenty years now without living in Buffalo. So...I guess your peeps don't care that much Stephon. I'm pumped to see Holmes in action. Sammy, Zay, Holmes, Clay, and more passes to Shady should be awesome. A very nice core to build on in the coming years.
  9. I'm extremely excited about Tyrod and the prospect of having continuity at the QB position and at OC and HC for the next few years at least--hopefully for a decade or two.
  10. It's obvious you disagree, but maybe you're wrong. That's what he's saying--it's not likely something you'll even be able to acknowledge.
  11. I find it interesting that the Pats have more white players than any other team on a pretty regular basis and are one of the greatest dynasties of all time. Add to that how they use more white players at the skilled positions esp on offense than the other teams.
  12. Well once you're in prison for life with no chance of parole, or even with a chance--you're 70-80 years old--suicide has to become a more palatable option. I think once you're in that situation, it's not 'the easy way out' as it would be as a civilian, it's just a pragmatic option if you know you can't handle that life for the next 50+ years.
  13. Just a really terrible write up. Not much thought went into it, clearly.
  14. No offense, but stop with sh*t like this. We all get it--doing the right things at this time doesn't equal wins. But maybe try viewing these actions more in a vacuum than you currently are and appreciating them at this present moment.
  15. Don't you ever feel embarrassed that your contributions are on par with an elementary school kid when others, like the OP, put in great time and effort to present an excellent analysis using research and numbers to provide evidence for their conclusions?
  16. No, he just doesn't live in hyperboleville like you apparently do
  17. It's a combination of advanced social media technology and the hold it has over almost all of society, not just younger people. Everyone besides the few people who inherently either dislike the premise of social media and/or subconsciously recognized it's danger. I think social media filled a subconscious need most people have for attention/to be recognized/to feel important. The ones who actively post inaccurate information are the ones who most need this external reinforcement that they matter. People who don't have this need--at least one so powerful that they make up and spread false info--are comfortable with who they are and also have a passion/sense of purpose in their lives. Attention from others isn't a primary concern for them. Very frustrating, I agree.
