My god, he would just go on and on and on, droning about nothing until the team falls asleep. That's my mistake for suggesting it....I need to take it back. It's a very bad idea.

She raced with Derek a few times. I recently got in to the Donut stuff. Lots of good content. Cletus McFarland is decent but I'm getting a bit tired of watching drifting and burnouts. Show me builds and such. Yup Vice grip is decent, Cleetus in small doses... LOL I watch a ton of Motortrend stuff Roadkill, Roadkill Garage, Engine Masters, Hot Rod Garage, the Hoopti Challenges etc... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wasn't a good decision. I just was describing what I noticed. If he had just followed Mailata full steam he likely gains at least 15 yards.

ManuManu Posted September 23, 2021 Share Posted September 23, 2021 So listening to a couple of podcasts while driving today… * Cosell mentioned no real flow to the offensive game plan vs SF. * They had a shot play to Reagor dialed up against cover 3. They had a deep dig/cross to try to draw in the single high safety so Reagor could win on the deep post vs the outside leverage of the CB. The safety didn’t bite unfortunately. * Avant thought a key reason why the Philly Special didn’t work with Hurts is because teams key on athletic QBs anyway. Foles wasn’t a threat, so it was more of a surprise. * Avant also noted that Reagor‘s route on the called back TD was a bad one. He needed to get vertical. He said you either move the corner where you want him or you go through him. You never run around. Mikel said Undlin used to have a red line painted near the sideline as a target for corners to direct the WRs to on go routes for that exact reason.

Alphagrand Posted September 23, 2021 Share Posted September 23, 2021 I think Goedert gets put on the franchise tag for 2022; they could have extended Mailata and Goedert and waited on Sweat, but the tag value for DE is currently much higher for DE than it is for TE -- about $17.7M for DE compared to only $10.6 for a TE. I'm still hopeful the direction is for Goedert to stay and Ertz to be gone but we'll see how it plays out. I think the Eagles are making a mistake having Ertz here this season, but that's JMO.

The lengths people go to, to defend the distinction but if we pick a good player it still beats picking a bust, even if the need wasn't glaring or do you not agree?

If it costs resources and doesn't actually improve the team... yeah, not sure how its a good pick. You don't draft a player to sit behind a Pro Bowler for his entire rookie deal, with your first pick in a draft, leaving yourself with the decision of paying top shelf money for a guy that you've never seen in the lead role. He's basically been a Trey Burton type player, but he's going to command big money... because "potential". I could change it to good player, bad decision if you prefer. Bad roster construction. Bad use of resources. Whichever you prefer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another reason I just want to do draft kings is because I already have money in there for the sportsbook. So I dont need to create another account somewhere else. All my money can be in one place. Im annoyed the drops always seem to happen at 3pm and thats right when I get very busy. Eventually Ill get some. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Ertz had been moved at some point in these 4 years and Goedert became the top guy, it makes sense. Lito Shepard and Sheldon Brown weren't needs when they were selected, but they were before the end of their rookie deals. Goedert remains second fiddle. Added to the fact that it isnt a premier position. #2 TEs are mid to late round picks and UDFAs, not 2nd round picks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think TSN in Canada did an all-female broadcast for the Raptors last season; I didn't watch as I'm not really an NBA fan. They've hired female color commentators for the NHL up here -- I'm obviously a chauvinist because I don't even listen closely enough to evaluate their analysis.
