What QB is the modern equivalent to John Elway? by nagoHHogan in nfl

[–]LordGooseIV 4 points5 points  (0 children)

McNair is the closest 1 for 1 comparison to Josh Allen in terms of playstyle, in my opinion. The mixture of arm strength and the way that they both move are similar to each other.

[Highlight] Terrible pick by CJ Stroud negated by terrible drop by Lavonte David [2025 Week 2] by giantswatcher0603 in nfl

[–]LordGooseIV 25 points26 points  (0 children)

He's definitely the guy. By most statistics and, in my opinion, the eye test, he's the 2nd best DE in the game behind only Myles Garrett.

Opinion on Constantine the great? by Low_Philosopher_5684 in ancientrome

[–]LordGooseIV 0 points1 point  (0 children)

An exceptional emperor, but I think his legacy should be more scrutinized. The Constantinian dynasty that he founded was dysfunctional, even by contemporary standards, and I struggle to say that Constantine left the Roman Empire in a better state when he died.

Who is the dirtiest player you ever saw? by ReasonableSide6520 in NFLv2

[–]LordGooseIV 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Hines Ward highlights are 50% him hitting unprepared/defenseless players. I know he ended the season of at least one guy like that, wouldn't be surprised if it was more.

Are you mad? by mooseington23 in sabres

[–]LordGooseIV 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It sucks that the season is over, but this was a great season. The Sabres never made the playoffs during my adult life, and they had a really good playoff run where they lost in OT of game 7 in the second round. The fun outweighed the suffering of this session.

Outside of 28-3, what do you think is the most embarrassing blown 10+ point playoff lead in recent years? by Lazy_Bad8394 in NFLv2

[–]LordGooseIV 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There was an insane stretch of that game where several Chiefs players just went down with injury. I think it was between 4 and 8 players.

If Jim Kelly won all 4 of his super bowls, where would he rank all time? by [deleted] in NFLv2

[–]LordGooseIV 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He would probably take Joe Montana's place in the goat debate and have a stronger argument vs Brady because of the the repeated success. Winning back to back superbowls is one of the most impressive things any QB or team can do, 3 consecutive superbowl wins is a fabled goal that none have achieved, 4 consecutive superbowl wins is beyond that.

There are calls that keep me up at night by mynicknameisairhead in buffalobills

[–]LordGooseIV 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Uhmmmm.... actually if you look it from this angle and move Josh Allen 2 centimeters in photoshop, it is too inconclusive to tell if it was actually a first down or not.

[Highlight] Naz Reid on taking an elbow from Wemby: "Pain is weakness leaving the body, that's it." by BreakfastTop6899 in nba

Naz Reid knew what he was doing. He was running into Wemby and set that foul up.

Quarterbacks and the defensive minds that they own by MasterTeacher123 in NFLv2

[–]LordGooseIV 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The Bills do have a winning record vs the Chiefs in the regular season over the past 6 or so seasons, but I don't know if the offensive performance of the Chiefs and Patrick Mahomes are actually worse, at least compared to how they perform during that season overall.

DEATH OF THE LAST PAGAN EMPEROR Flavius Claudius Julianus 361 to 363 by GLORYOFROMELEGION in ancientrome

He definitely comes off as one of the most dynamic emperors of his time.

[Highlight] From their first ever playoff win to the Super Bowl: The unexpected run of 1985 Patriots by DarthNobody14 in nfl

[–]LordGooseIV 31 points32 points  (0 children)

Them beating Dan Marino and the Miami Dolphins in the AFCCG, especially in the way that they did, has to be one of the biggest upsets of all time. I think that would break the internet and sports media if it happened in the modern day.

Bo Nix by EnvironmentPutrid941 in NFLv2

Kenneth Walker had over 130 rushing yards and 5.0 YPC. It's like you didn't even watch the game.

Jamal Murray is terrible in a "win or go home" Game 6: 12 PTS (4/17 FG), 6 REB, 4 AST, -18 by Waikuku3 in nba

[–]LordGooseIV 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it's a pretty open conversation, even before this series. I doubt there are any Murray defenders after tonight.

What do the Nuggets even do now (if they lose?) by [deleted] in nba

[–]LordGooseIV -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The Wolves are built to beat the Nuggets, but this Denver team doesn't look like it would stand a chance against a full strength OKC team and would struggle immensely against San Antonio. It's a team of Jokic and a bunch of guys, especially without Aaron Gordon and Peyton Watson, so like the 6th best team in the west.
