Downundermike left of his own accord. 

And then came back to troll the board several times under clone accounts AND spammed VA's youtube channel that he uses to fund his mother's treatments.

 

So in short, a POS loser.

Transitioning to Mitchell and DeJean both being the guys? at outside corner and slot corner?

Kinda figured they would.  I said yesterday Ringo and Rodgers might both be backups.  

Don't think they traded for DeJean to redshirt him.

Yeah.  RR gives people a punching bag.  At least he doesn't follow people around from thread to thread and harass them.

He’s actually one of the ones that I specifically do not like. Too much schtick. Apparently he just got arrested, by the way.

I figured he would one day.

I would say it is four in a row ... adding Davis and Smith to your list.  Some will argue against Davis, but I expect his impact will continue to increase year after year.

More would argue Smith at this point, unless you meant DeVonta.

Feels like DeJean is too far behind to be the starting nickel week 1. I'd be thrilled to be wrong and see Q and Slay on the outside with Cooper in the slot, but feels more like they will go with Slay and Q on the outside, and Q into the slot with Rodgers or Ringo coming in for nickel.

Multi-view is awesome. I'm happy that it didn't take long to implement it

We are passing on the ticket this year to cover a different expense, but agreed, Multi-view is awesome. We used it last year a lot but was such a PITA since you had to find the right combination that you wanted.  Will be so much nicer to be able to pick your games AND put them in an order you prefer (like having your #1 game top left and #4 bottom right)

YouTube lets you do anything. Watch on mobile, AirCast to TV, watch on a PS5 etc. You don't even need an app, just a YouTube account that you can use in any browser. I genuinely have no idea why anyone would purchase it through Apple. It's all the same besides paying an upcharge. 

No idea. My thought was that Sunday Ticket on YouTube was only for certain devices but it allows any device

So I agree. Doesn't make sense

Maybe an option for those who don't subscribe to YouTube TV?  That way you don't have to cancel Hulu or whatever your package of choice is.

That would be the exact approach the Colts used with Rodgers, despite his PFF scores. 

Hoping to see DeJean play on Saturday. He's on a pitch count this week so who knows. I also think it's too early for him to be starting Nickel. Feels like a change they would make after the bye.

I don't subscribe to YouTube TV but use the YouTube app for the ticket.

I don't subscribe to YouTube TV and I have Sunday Ticket. All you need is a free account. Doesn't go through any other streaming service or cable provider. 

Nakobe working in some with the 1's again. Ideally, he wins the job. Despite how disappointing he's looked until the past few weeks, I can't get how good he was at Georgia out of my head. He wasn't just productive, he was a star. A dominant player there. I know that guarantees nothing, but still. It's hard to just scoff at. If he can ever play that way at the NFL level, we have ourselves a legit LB here. And he seems to finally be flashing it. Far from out of the woods yet though.

I don't think that what you're talking about is precise.   I think that some older players will be cut.   It would be just as easy or easier to come up with a 53,  and identify a small handful of cut vets. 

You seem to think that players like Tristin Mccollum, Jobe and Ricks are somehow not on either list.  Which tends to make your set of 8 kind of something that you're trying to push for some reason.    both the top and bottom lists have at least one player that won't make the 53. 

there are more than 8 players that make the 53 in your 2 lists of 8. 

The core idea, that vets will be harder to grab, is a good one though, and there might be some of that.

Of course it isn't precise.  By definition, tradeoffs are not precise.  Their very either A or B nature means they can't be precise.  Sometimes A will be chosen and sometimes B.

I have come up with my personal 53, but if I had posted that then any discussion of the Bell Squad possibilities would be lost in the discussion of the 53 as an entirety.  Of course I could have presented the older player vs. younger player as a one to one comparison

WR Parris Campbell vs Johnny Wilson

or

C/G/T Brett Toth vs C/G Dylan McMahon

or

ILB Zach Baun vs. ILB Ben VanSumeren

But there isn't a one-to-one position match between the older player list and the younger player list, so the one-to-one comparisons become a bit difficult.

Regarding McCollum Jobe and Ricks, I don't see more than one of those three making the 53, and they all are young, so they fell into a different category..

I would argue against Nolan Smith and Jordan Davis being impact players. It only applies to Devonta, Carter and hopefully Mitchell.

It was actually a targeted traffic stop where they pulled him over for a window tint violation that he was already in the process of handling. And it escalated.

He really did that? What a tool. He and 4for4 seriously must have been a couple. Not sure why else he would defend that guy to his grave.

I went the Sunday Ticket route when it first came out but never got my money’s worth out of it.  I found that I would watch the Eagles locally (blocked on Sunday Ticket, as were the Ravens as I am in an overlap locale).  So the value was when the Eagles weren’t on.  Frequently that was the late game and the best of the late games was usually what was broadcast. Once Live Broadcast are over, Sunday Ticket is worthless.  So many weeks it offered practically no value and others might be good for a game.  Red Zone’s novelty wore off soon for me.  I purchased what is now NFL+ for the All22 but also discovered that I could watch more games than with Sunday Ticket, just not live, which is fine with me.  And I love the condensed games. 35 minutes, just the plays. The way it clips the announcers is awesome.  It’s a fraction of what Sunday Ticket costs. I get the bonus of preseason games and even preseason All22. 

 

 

See? Told you Johnny Wilson is a better athlete.

Like many it probably comes down to health.
