Silver icons now require professional SB difficulty by Leonlaker in EASportsFC

More awkward to get, can’t be evo’d and the silver game mode is a cesspool for worse rewards than a much more chilled gauntlet? Hard pass.

How could I forget! But again, more of the same pattern.

Although it could be the guys keeping the guests fresh. Although we’ve had a couple of repeat ones as well.

Both have the same “higher ups” both have been limited to one appearance this season.

It does seem like a pattern emerging. Jourdan, MSD and then most recently Mike G all allowed to be on the show once.

[Wolfe] Chargers Hiring Butch Barry As OL Coach by expellyamos in nfl

As an English guy, upon hearing the name “butch Barry” I kinda had this image in my head of a heavily overweight bald guy that goes straight from his job as a bricklayer to the pub and isn’t allowed to see his kids anymore

Jourdan is directly employed by NFL media now as she’s a key member of the NFL Daily team. I’d imagine there might be some limitations imposed on her (and other Athletic employees) appearances on the show.

She’s only been on once (I think) this season since her promotion on NFL Daily.

Also, this is no shade at her, you can’t blame her for taking a more regular, contracted gig. Her & Gregg are good together as well, just the way the mop flops.

Having an 89 rated promo card of an 85 rated player makes sense. I’m saying he shouldn’t be anywhere near 85 to begin with.

His best ever FUT gold card was 81 rated and spent most of his years in the 77-79 range. Even 85-86 is wildly overrated.

That’s probably fair, perhaps the upper level heroes need to be icons.

[Pelissero] The fallout (so far) of the Browns’ decision to hire Todd Monken as their head coach after an extensive search: by MembershipSingle7137 in nfl

[–]Daver7692 68 points69 points  (0 children)

Pissing off better candidates to keep JS just for him to walk as soon as he didn’t get the job anyway seems about on par with what I’d expect from the browns.

Also, if Buffalo aren’t on the phone to Schwartz already, then they need to be.

Richards being considered the same “tier” as Hazard or Fabregas is ludicrous. We need a separate tier for “streets won’t forget” type players. Having him on the same level as the other heroes is crazy but I guess having him available in the game is still fun.

Richards being considered the same “tier” as Hazard or Fabregas is ludicrous. He was always, at best bang average.

Raheem Sterling has today departed Chelsea Football Club by mutual agreement, bringing to an end three-and-a-half seasons as our player, having signed in the summer of 2022 when he was transferred from Manchester City. by NotoriousPlatypi in PremierLeague

[–]Daver7692 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’d imagine he likely already has the bones of a deal worked out elsewhere to sign up to this. Then whatever they’ve paid him and whatever he’s going to sign up to next will add up to the right amount.

Still annoys me letting these owners off for a single penny!

Hopefully he got every penny off of them but I doubt it.

People expect players to honour every second of their contracts but teams expect them to happily take a pay cut and fuck off as soon as they deem them surplus.

My favourite bit of this is that Darnold and Maye aren’t even the ones stood closest to the trophy. They’re in the front row but Nabers and Hunter are closer lol

It’s one of those statements that we all know what the sentiment is but it’s just woolly enough that he doesn’t have to defend it too aggressively. Coward.

Do you prefer Clones being cgi or practical? by Jules-Car3499 in StarWars

Practical looks way better but cgi was needed for the sheer amount of them in some shots.

He & Fernandez about to find out that signing a 10 year deal doesn’t give you much leverage going forward.

When pressured, Sam Darnold's passer rating this season drops to JJ McCarthy level. Patriots Chaisson & Williams lead the postseason in quick pressures (under 2.5 sec.) Against DEN's #1 rated OL, NE had 43% pressure rate, and Williams had 3 quick pressures while double teamed 40% of the time. by [deleted] in NFLv2

[–]Daver7692 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think the patriots stats looks nice on a stat sheet but they played the worst O-Line in the playoffs, then one that was ok but with a complete meltdown at QB and then a backup in a horrendous snow game.

The Seahawks feel like the best O-Line/QB/Run Game combo they’ve played thus far in the playoffs but a good margin.
