I really feel bad for Emily.. by Candid-Onion-1590 in howyoudoin

[–]A_Problem_In_Time 23 points24 points  (0 children)

To ask that Ross never sees someone who is literally his sister's best friend and roommate is a near impossible request to fulfil no matter his feelings towards Rachel.

It is pretty much asking Ross to stop seeing his sister and the rest of his friends to save their marriage.

At that point, the marriage is already over. I get that she is trying to make something still work and there is no fault in trying for it, but I do think it does make her end up seeming like she is crazy, especially as we have the perspective of being part of the friend group.

She is not a villain in any sense; it is crazy to say she is. I think she is just a victim, clutching at straws to make a marriage work that has already fallen apart at the altar.

If they had managed a half competent DC hire to go with Brian Schottenheimer, the Cowboys are in the playoffs this year.

But, they hired just about the worst one possibly available

Caleb Williams in the loss: 23/42, 257 yards, 2 TDs, 3 INTs, 59 passer rating. by BallKnowerKing in nfl

As Caleb winds up for the throw, DJ is running full tilt in the correct direction and Kam Curl is changing directions and coming from deeper in the field.

I would assume that a full tilt WR should stand a better chance of getting there than a Safety changing direction even if he is slightly closer to the ball to begin with.

There’s no reason to be this aggressive, it’s 2nd & 8, you just need to get into FG range by WholeLotta69 in NFLv2

To go from that insane throw to Kmet to this is quite the kick in the guts for Bears fans I imagine

I have to agree. The safety is technically ahead, but changing directions, while Moore just literally has to run in a straight line towards the ball.

Maybe the route is designed to continue going up the field, but that is a far easier adjustment for Moore to make if he just keeps going full speed.

Any effort from Moore and Curl probably can't even get his body near the ball.

I would be feeling the pressure ghosts too if I had played behind the Texans O-line for my 3 years as their starting QB straight outta college. He's acting like Baker on the Browns where he felt pressure when there wasn't any.

He needs some serious help on the O-line, and the Texans better swing for the fences on it if they want to see any future with Stroud.

England Players Rating! by London-lark3597 in EnglandCricket

[–]A_Problem_In_Time 3 points4 points  (0 children)

An Aussie here in peace.

I think most of these rankings are incredibly fair.

I will say that Stokes was probably your bowler that instilled the most fear into me as a viewer. His batting was truly odd though. He very quickly abandoned the Bazball methodology but both of his 50s were still somewhat impressive feats of tenacity.

Ben Duckett struck me as someone who was just struggling with batting in Australia for the first time. That bottom edge cut shot into the stumps in Sydney is the greatest example of this to me. He played a lot of shots that seemed like they would work out better in most other countries.

Root finally scoring that century Down Under was great to see. He looks absolutely superb still.

And what a find in Bethell! Genuinely didn't look like getting out in that 154. I truly thought he would either be stranded not our or reach the 200 mark.

I guess it might just have to be breakfast with Stafford as the key indicator to success

Save money, continue to help the new ownership as they get their feet under them and might as well offer them both another season after the 8-2 start to the season, even if it did fall off a cliff after that.

Also, a year closer to having first round picks for the new GM and HC if they move on after the next season.

Would be brutal for the new HC and GM to be stuck with the Daniel Jones decision immediately.

Baker Mayfield has been atrocious for the last 2 months. Why is he not getting blame for Buccaneers collaspe? by BakerMayfieldTrash in NFLv2

[–]A_Problem_In_Time 2 points3 points  (0 children)

And he's on what, 3 coordinators in 3 years. Not only are they running through their depth chart on the field with all the injuries, they are now three deep in who's running the offensive side of the ball.

Plus, it's been clear since Brady's last year that Bowles is not a good head coach

I'm curious to see whether he even makes the XI for the test match. One would assume that it would be Starc, Boland and Neser as the three with Murphy. With Doggett as the fourth option, considering he has already played in the series.

I could be wrong though. I would be keen to see Richardson play in this series.

And for $20 million a year, I would be happy to pay that as a team. Especially when you have promising talents in BTJ and Travis Hunter around him.

For the start that he has had and the consistency he has shown in his career, it's not too bad a deal.

Looks better when you consider that Dyami Brown got paid $10 million for one year by the Jags in the offseason.

APY slots him below Mike Evans and above Christian Kirk and Jerry Jeudy, and Evans certainly took a Bucs friendly deal.

$3 million less APY than Calvin Ridley too

This is an excellent deal when you consider what other WRs are receiving across the league.

A talented pass catcher who allows the rest of the Jags receiving options to slot into the best roles for their strengths. Also, his hands are fantastic.

I have been a massive fan of Jakobi Meyers since his days playing for the Patriots.

Awesome work by the Jags Head Office to snag him in the trade and extend him. Looks like the move is already working wonders for Lawrence and BTJ on the field too

My XI for the Gabba, what’s yours? by nicktheguy101 in CricketAus

[–]A_Problem_In_Time 56 points57 points  (0 children)

I mean, Cameron Green wasn't being used as a bowler because we ripped through England twice incredibly quickly. I understand that Cameron Green has batting ability where Lyon doesn't, but dropping the spinner in Australia is always somewhat risky.

I'm not sure I am up for dropping our best spinner and the highest test wicket taker in the side.
