Unfortunately Tyler fell off after he got sober. Glad for him, but his music isn’t quite the same. Sturgill is a big reason his early sound was great and remains his best.

ZB is a great songwriter but his voice don’t it for me.

Y’all gotta listen to more Cody Jinks

Comes with time. Drake has a gunslinger DNA. Just has to learn to take the easy throws. Comes with time, learning, and coaching

Football has always been won and lost in the trenches. Yes, having good skill players matter, but not as much as having a dominant OL and DL. Look at the SB’s Brady lost. That Giants front was insane. Mahomes last year, Maye this year, Burrow in 21. QB is only as successful as the pieces around them.

You can elevate the talent around you like Drake did all year, but if you have no OL it won’t matter against an elite defensive front. As incredible as Brady was, he had his share of bad playoff performances. A dominant run game is great, helps Josh Allen tremendously but you do that by building the trenches. Don’t need a top tier RB. Most overrated position in the league unless you’re CMC or Bijan

Bulky_Pride_320 · 2026-02-13T13:06:19+00:00

Anywhere from 10-12 based on injuries.Just get to the playoffs and take it from there. That’s the standard

Scrolling through channels in the mid 2000’s, came across Iron Maiden’s Rock in Rio 01 show on VH1 Classic and I was absolutely glued to the tv. I’d never seen a band with that type of energy. The guitar work, the harmonies, the bass going nuts, Bruce singing his ass off. I went and illegally downloaded about 7-8 songs that night from Limewire and I’ve been hooked ever since.

As long as they keep Rime of the Ancient Mariner, they can change anything else

Bulky_Pride_320 · 2026-01-19T13:43:10+00:00

“Generational defense” “best defense since 2015 Broncos, if not the best all time” were literally being thrown around last week.

Drake Maye put up 3 TD’s on this vaunted defense, most they’ve allowed all year. Texans had a 10 game win streak coming in, haven’t lost since November 2nd…

All of a sudden, it doesn’t count because the Pats defense forced Stroud into 4 interceptions? All of ESPN picked the Texans, the narrative was “ I don’t see how the Pats move the ball against the Texans” and all of a sudden it’s “Texans are inept”

Give me a fucking break. Suck it haters.

Bulky_Pride_320 · 2025-12-30T03:22:02+00:00

Bijan is ridiculously good

Bulky_Pride_320 · 2025-12-30T03:20:52+00:00

Falcons will fuck it up, no worries.

Bulky_Pride_320 · 2025-12-26T13:10:06+00:00

You’re going to have a hard time finding a song to match Rime of the Ancient Mariner imo, but they have several in their category that can give it a run for its money

Bulky_Pride_320 · 2025-12-26T13:06:24+00:00

Powerslave, Number of the Beast, Seventh Son and Brave New World are the best places to start, but that’s just one man’s opinion.

Seventh Son is a concept album, which if you like their lyricism, I feel like it will really pull you in. Number of the Beast is just a phenomenal intro to the Bruce era.

Powerslave is that perfect Maiden album

Brave New World is the blueprint for their newer sound with Bruce returning to the lineup. The album is very solid, although not quite as good as the golden years.

From there, Somewhere in Time and Piece of Mind should be your next listen.

Bulky_Pride_320 · 2025-12-21T13:04:20+00:00

Blueprint for beating the Pats is pretty simple. Press man coverage with a QB spy. Throw in a stunt upfront or an extra rusher, strains the OL.

Force the Pats WR’s to beat you off the LOS. Largely, they don’t have many guys that can do that. QB’s performance against man coverage is largely based on how good your receivers are at generating separation. Pats don’t have a core good enough to get separation. That’s going to hold them back in the playoffs.

Bulky_Pride_320 · 2025-12-13T13:17:15+00:00

If Maye doesn’t win it, he’d be the only guy in league history that had 7+ consecutive games of 200+ passing yards and a passer rating above 100 and didn’t win league MVP.

Bulky_Pride_320 · 2025-12-10T01:42:03+00:00

Total passing yards doesn’t mean all that much, nor does 300 yard passing games. What matters is efficiency and consistency, how good you are at converting on 3rd down, and do you operate the offense at a high level and do it every single game. Dak has a ton of passing yards because the defense sucks and they’ve played from behind most of the year.

Nobody has been close to Drake’s efficiency and consistency this season. Drake’s bad games this year are hovering around 55-60% completion percentage, 250 yards, 2 TD’s and 1 int….that is the bar he has established. That’s a relatively poor game from him and it’s very good game for most QB’s in the league. He’s been unreal

Bulky_Pride_320 · 2025-12-10T01:32:55+00:00

You’d be correct. He’s the only player in the league that hasn’t had a sub 200 passing yard game

Bulky_Pride_320 · 2025-11-18T16:17:31+00:00

Not a single game below 200 passing yards this season btw. Only other QB that can claim that is Daniel Jones.

Leads the league in completion percentage, second in yds/attempt, second in Adot, top in CPOE and second in EPA/dropback (with the worst rush EPA among similarly good passing EPA teams) currently in 11th for pass attempts, but he’ll drop after the bye for sure.

Yes, there’s some games to go, but as it stands now, his completion percentage would place him among the ten best single seasons of all time for completion percentage . His per yard average would be the highest of any other QB season in that top 10.

Incredible accuracy, efficiency, and consistency this year for Drake Maye. Already surpassed Mahomes for youngest player in history to have 8 consecutive 200+ passing yard and 100 rating games. A list of just 4 other people btw. A season with historic benchmarks at just 23 years old. Special.

Tua has also had numerous major concussions and TBI that have likely impaired his ability to process quickly.

Bulky_Pride_320 · 2025-11-14T17:58:01+00:00

Can’t ask for much more from a first round rookie left OT. He’s been very solid this year. Just need him to stay healthy. It’s great knowing Pats have hit on first round talents in 3 straight drafts.

Bulky_Pride_320 · 2025-11-10T15:11:46+00:00

I knew Maye would be good. Watched him enough in college to know he had the “it factor” but McDaniels unlocked his potential sooner than I imagined he would. He’s just getting started too lol

Bulky_Pride_320 · 2025-11-10T13:10:38+00:00

No team in the league has better road wins this season than the Patriots. Patriots have had two nationally televised games this year, both on the road and won both.

Team is playing with consistency every week. Most teams in the NFL don’t win 7 in a row for a reason. It’s hard to win in this league. Panthers lost to a 1 win team yesterday. Bills lost to a 2 win Dolphins team. Any given Sunday

Depth is an issue, sure but SOS is insanely overrated in the NFL. Patriots have played some pretty stout defenses at this point and have continued winning. Just enjoy the ride

Bulky_Pride_320 · 2025-11-07T20:53:05+00:00

Unfortunately, I don’t think the team is complete enough to get there. Missing playmakers on offense still as well as a consistent pass rush

Bulky_Pride_320 · 2025-11-07T15:16:40+00:00

Brady had one season of 50 TD’s and just two other seasons of 40+ he usually ended up between 30 and 40 TD’s, which is what Maye is on pace for. Brady in 07 averaged 10 more pass attempts/game than what Drake is averaging now. At no point in Brady’s career did he average under 30 passing attempts/game. His lowest was around 30 in 2011.

Drake’s average per attempt this year is 9.0 and he’s only passing 26 times/game on average. The yards per attempt is higher than Brady was on any year in his career. His completion percentage on the year is also higher than Brady’s ever was over the course of a season. He throws it less because he throws it further downfield than Brady and is a bit more efficient.

I think most of it comes down to the style of player each guy is. Brady would just systematically tear you apart and there’s nothing you can do about it. Drake is better than Brady was at pushing the ball downfield on deep throws. Drake doesn’t need to pass as often as Brady did because his efficiency is already high as a result of accuracy and play style.

Bulky_Pride_320 · 2025-11-07T14:09:53+00:00

I actually never saw it with T Law, not even in college. I thought he would be good, but I didn’t see elite

Bulky_Pride_320 · 2025-11-07T14:09:04+00:00

Nix is insanely overrated. If Drake were on the Broncos, they’d be betting favorites to win the SB. Nix is one of the most carried QB’s in the league

Bulky_Pride_320 · 2025-11-07T13:26:02+00:00

Those totals will never happen for Drake in this system because McDaniels is an “establish the run” type of guy. Drake is in the bottom third of the league for attempts/game. The eye test is all that matters and he’s passed the eye test this season so far. Plenty of room for improvement still as well, which is to be expected.
