I did not say the 2nd highest rushing total, I said the 2nd highest rushing total by the RB's.

Who Qbed for the highest RB total?

Congrats. Passed it years ago. A non-trivial achievement understanding the body of knowledge.

Attention teams showing off your black uniforms via photoshoots. Having all black backgrounds doesn't do an ounce of good for those wanting to see what the uniform/helmet actually looks like.

@BigEFly the negligence question is interesting. Wagner being a pro football player could be held to a higher standard (like a ufc fighter engaging in a street fight). But again I think a jury would laugh at this clown 

Sont most life insurance policies void if you die committing a felony ?

Not saying the run game can't be effective with a QB like Minshew, just not as effective as it would be with a QB like Hurts. The bump in the passing game might outweigh that (and prior to this year, I'd say it would've), but that's a different question. The question was would our run game be as effective, not the overall offense. Solak also weighed recently in response to a segment on ESPN.

 

Who cares about anything but the overall offense?

I think the RPO is more of a triple option with Hurts being able to keep it vs. RPO with Foles where it's either a hand off or pass. 

You're asking the QB to make two reads simultaneously - the unblocked DE and the targeted LB (or safety). That's tough duty. It can be done but it's really hard. OTOH, if Hurts pulls it and because the DE crashes the LB does not commit, he may have a second pass option. Still tough duty because he has to get the ball out fast or commit to the run because the OL is run-blocking.

Luckily for us that not an issue with Hurts right now either.

American law may be different than Canadian in this regard. I’m talking specifically about civil law. I don’t have any experience with life insurance policies

The touchdown that was called back was a triple option.  Starts with ZR, then Hurts can shoot it out to the WR (Brown) if the corner crashes the run.  Great design.

So Jake’s ankle injury made the decision a no-brainer, but let’s say he was healthy and the weather was not a factor, what do you think about going for 2 to make it a three-score game instead of a two-score game?

I see the merits of both. I’d tend to settle for the XP to make it 16 so it’s pretty much impossible for you to lose in regulation and forces the other team to he perfect. But I see the benefits of going for 2 and all but ending the game. 

Depends. If we are assuming weather isn't a factor, are we assuming the Jags offense is still looking the same or better? If its the same, just take the XP. If it's the Patriots in SB52, go for 2.

I mean, I agree, but the context was about whether the running game would be more or less effective.

This game was in California (SF of all places).  Based on what I've seen recently, I wouldn't be surprised if this clown becomes a silent minority owner of the Rams after this incident.  I kid of course.  

Heard on one of the pods Maddox was still in a boot this week, so he's probably out.

OK. First option is to give to the RB. Who's is he reading - the CB or a DE? If the former, it's a straight RPO.

If Slay plays this week, let Maddox heal. 
Same with Mailata & Elliott.

The most important game of the first half is week 6: Cowboys @ Eagles.

This is how you get into a trap game.

If they are healthy, let them play. If they aren't, they don't. This team of all teams isn't going to rush someone out there who isn't physically ready.

He's reading the unblocked DE.  11:35 remaining in the 2nd.

Where's Ronnie Lott when you need him? That dude would have walked away with "something" all right. Not that Bobby Wagner is incapable

Good for him. Joe Thomas was awesome I don't disagree.  I think Peters was a much better run blocker and was a way above average pass blocker as well. We'll have to agree to disagree on this one.
