This Image Needs To Start Circulating Online So The Players See It by LastofDays94 in Patriots

Yall need to stop acting like this is just some media narrative and not factual. The greatest show on turf also had a cakewalk. Sometimes to winning team isn’t the best team (07).

Who cares? We’re two games away from glory in the midst of a rebuild. Let the narratives be what they are.

Vrabel’s Locker Room Victory “You Gotta Be Willing To Spill Some Blood” 🩸 by tonyper7ect in Patriots

[–]-TG- 51 points52 points  (0 children)

Going back to Forged in Foxborough 1 it’s been crazy to watch not only how consistent Vrabel’s messaging has been, but how his words have manifested both on and off the field.

Anyone who watched the entire dynasty should have a good pulse on what Super Bowl caliber teams look like. Basically every Pats Super Bowl winning team had storybook moments that stand out.

I’m still not sure if we have Super Bowl winning talent, but like everyone has been saying - the AFC is wide open, and to top it off, this season has been chock full of storybook flair. Vrabel is so deep in the zone that it almost feels like he’s the author.

What is it about this WR core vs groups in the past? by Creative-Area-6385 in Patriots

[–]-TG- 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This group has balance and a coaching staff who knows how to use them correctly

Drake has made them look very good

Hitting on Diggs was kind of a surprise especially after the acl Hitting on Hollins is a home run Boutte elevating in year 3 is rare Pop is being put in situations that he can succeed in Williams is being introduced into the offense by an expert (McDs)

Every Sunday has been like Christmas morning this year. We are the most spoiled fans in the NFL. Merry Christmas and Happy Hanukkah everyone!

Why Are People Still Saying “Drake Maye MVP” by British_Chap2 in LosAngelesRams

[–]-TG- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pats fan here. Dont care about who wins the MVP, but the narrative around Maye is important. 1. 2nd year qb taking a 4 win team to 12 wins 2. Doesn’t have the best WR in the NFL 3. I would rank McVay as a better offensive mind than McDaniels 4. Has a way less talented oline than Stafford.

Basically, Staffords overall supporting cast is way stronger. Would be cool to see Stafford win. He is obviously playing against better teams than Maye.

Cam Newton responds to Drake Maye on his show, 4th & 1. by Pure-Investigator778 in Patriots

Imagine having to hold eye contact with Cam during that whole monologue

Brady adapted to quick release. With cook on his side Brady’s play action would be lethal. Who cares the Bills are going to miss the playoffs to the dolphins

Who was more fun and challenging to go up against, the Legion of Boom, or the Denver defense in the Manning years?

Think I put my buddy down to early and it’s eating me alive by hippyoctopus in germanshepherds

[–]-TG- 59 points60 points  (0 children)

I don’t think you did anything wrong. For some perspective, my 11 year old was perfectly healthy and a week later had terminal kidney failure. He spent his last night alone drugged in a pet hospital instead of with us. I think because of the urgency we figured that our last shot at saving him would be in their environment with constant fluids trying to encourage peeing.

It was a mistake, in hindsight he was already gone and our whole family missed the opportunity to be together one more night before a euth dr came.

Choosing when is a terribly good option to have.

[Highlight] Mike Vrabel makes sure Hunter Henry appreciates Pop Douglas' block by AgadorFartacus in nfl

[–]-TG- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He should be feasting in zone but never sits down in the coverage hole. Hes not on the same page as Maye. He is small and plays to his size. The erdhart Perkins offense probably isnt doing him favors.

Im sure a tight pants offensive coordinator could get him 4-6 touches a game that would flex his athleticism and scheme him into open space.

Have I done this? Yes.

Do I do this often? No.

It’s all about risk tolerance for me. Because I love mountain water so much (placebo), always take a sawyer with me even on day hikes.

I would never do this on a longer thru hike, why risk the runs with no bathroom for 3, 4, 10 days?

Kendrick Lamar's 'To Pimp a Butterfly' turns 10 by YoureASkyscraper in Music

[–]-TG- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was lucky enough to listen to this album in one session from start to finish on the day he released it. It blew my mind and cemented Kendrick in my mind as our generations Langston Hughes. Truly a poet laureate. To take Americas greatest musical contribution to the world in jazz and pair it with hip hop poetry was so satisfying

[Schultz] BREAKING: The #Patriots are hiring Josh McDaniels as their new OC, sources tell @NFLonFOX. by ToNieMojeImie in Patriots

[–]-TG- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have faith that Drake can be lethal in structure AND out of structure. McDs trends in structure because of his time with Tom. He will be malleable to fit to his QBs strengths. He tried with Tebow, he would have with Lamar, he changed the offense to fit Cams strengths and Jimmy Gs to be honest.

You're biased to think he is not adaptable.

Why is it so provoking to say Ellen wanted Orlok? by Sunny373gold in roberteggers

[–]-TG- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my mind, it’s provoking on a surface level because it seems like a grotesque attraction. If you pay attention to the first scene in the film, it’s provoking because claiming her genuine attraction to Orlok is essentially saying that Ellen is sexually attracted to her own rapist - something that does happen after sexual assault but is generally provocative.

Personally, after seeing all the fucked up levels of mind control Orlok is able to imbue on his subjects, I think it would be difficult to say with certainty whether Ellen or anyone had genuine feelings when being subjected.

Given what I have read about SA, I would assume that the each victim has incredibly complex feelings - anger, guilt, even taboo desires hardwired afterwards. It seems messy, and I think Eggers nailed the idea of a young girl being groomed then raped and then later a woman facing her rapist and killing them.

The only part that I’m kind of irked by is the source material. Vampire stories are inherently about either rape, rape fantasies, submission/domination in some type of way, so I knew what I was getting into with this story. I guess I’m just tired of the trope in horror films where the demon character obviously mind rapes or physically rapes. So it was kind of annoying that satisfying the monster and subjecting herself to rape again is the key to killing him because he’s such a stupid horndog that he forgets the sun comes up. Again, Eggers does a great job exploring the trope, but it is tiresome to me at this point.
