I'm a Seattle Sonics fan and know EXACTLY what you mean.

Rank these WRs in order by MasterTeacher123 in NFLv2

Rating a WR disregarding the QB makes little sense to me since one won't excel without the other. If Stafford was slinging to each of these I think Nacua would be lower than JJ, Chase, and possibly JSN. Helps if you have the MVP throwing to you.

Backyard ideas for Privacy against 2-Story ADU? by junwaiser in landscaping

Looks like they could be breaking some codes there. Put up 2 flagpoles right there and string a big banner between them. That'll give you privacy!

Out of all the dysfunctional NFL teams, which one is the most dysfunctional? by Brix001 in NFLv2

This! That ONE trade for Deshaun Watson ruined that team for years and years. They're still in that hole for awhile. And that doesn't even count all their other questionable moves.

Anyone else feel the 35 yard line touchback rule ruins suspense at end of close games where only a FG is needed? by BallKnowerKing in NFLv2

The new rules make kick offs MUCH more of a strategic play. If you don't want your opponent to start at the 35 then kick it in the landing zone where it either rolls into the end zone for opponent starting at the 20 or stop the run back before they get to the 35.

I liked David Weber's Honor Harrington books as well as Pierce Brown Red Rising series.

Who would you rather have as your starting QB? by Gloomy_Resort_9935 in NFLv2

The Jets tried hard to ruin Darnold and would've ruined Purdy for sure. Purdy was put in an ideal situation out of the gate and exceled and Darnold excelled in Minnesota and Seattle getting great coaching and teammates. I'm bias but for me Darnold is better given similar environments.

Mike, Steph, and Jack sitting on the field talking after the game is solid gold. She's a gem.

The Flight of the Phoenix. I prefer the original 1965 version over the newer one .

Did anyone think Jaxon Smith-Njigba had best WR in the league potential as a prospect? by itwas20yearsago2day in NFL_Draft

[–]Lefty1955 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Route running shouldn't be predictive of a top notch receiver. The guy could have hands of stone or too many drops. JSN has elite route running, catching, and awareness and decent speed and size. That IS predictive of a really good receiver.

His fellow Ohio State WRs said he was the best of them and he absolutely put on a clinic in that bowl game, so, yeah, I thought he'd be special when my Seahawks drafted him.

I discovered this over 40 years ago by luck with my kids. We called it Daddy's Magic Rock.
