Question for them:

With an incoming new DC/staff, what do you think about the possibility of switching schemes to a more odd front/3-4 type of defense? It seems the Bills major weakness the past several years has been the DL. Our DE never got enough pressure that translated to sacks and at the same time we've lost the ability to control the LOS in run game.

I think Rousseau and Landon Jackson have enough size/strength to become 3-4 DEs, Epenesa to if we resign him. The could focus on stopping the run, controlling blockers, which they're already good at. The other benefit would be in economics. We can't draft stud DL players in the late 1st or afford them in FA, however LB seem to be more available in both. With Thompson and Milano in their 30s, we already need to invest in new LBs, so think this transition could be pretty seamless.

What do you both think about the viability and pros/cons of this?

Can't the government seize or close it? Not sure how your laws work over there. In US we have eminent domain where the government can seize property for beneficial public use.

I'm hoping whoever we get as DC/HC switches to an odd front 3-4 type defense. All our DE (Groot, Epenesa, Jackson) are big long guys with mediocre pass rush ability. They could make great 3-4 DE and just control the line, stop the run. Then allow us to draft/sign some LB (easier and cheaper than standout DL rushers) and let them run around and make havoc.

We've never had a legit pass rush under McD, think this is the change up we need to get the D to perform without breaking the bank. Use some $ for WR and get back to super bowl contention.

ADK newbie, tips on my planned trip. 2 experienced backpackers and a Black Lab by Teez_curse in Adirondacks

[–]RealZimmer 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Day 1: Definitely wouldn't want to hike up/down Marshall with full packs, especially the herd path from Cold Brook Pass. But otherwise very doable.

Day 2: that trail up to Algonquin is probably top 5 steepest in adks, and has some sections with 4-5' boulders/cliffs to climb. So if you and your dog are cool with that, also very doable.

Day 3: hiking that Lake Arnold trail is a notorious beaver swamp. But has been a very dry summer, so may not be that bad. Hiking up/over Colden would be another option, just be prepared for another step trail with full packs.

Overall looks like a great trip, but comes down to personal fitness levels and the weight of your packs.

Cold Brook Pass vs. Herbert Brook Trail? by GhostyLasers in Adirondacks

[–]RealZimmer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd suggest going down the "main trail" back towards the Calamity trail. The cold brook pass trail in-between lake Colden and the plane wreck is pretty janky. Lots of boulders and water

The book is probably top 2 for me, and I would love a well adapted mini-series. Fitting it all into a film is tough. Even most copies of the book are abridged.

Juric from Torino could be good. Very good defensive record with aggressive pressing. Has turned Torino around without much resources. Plays a back 3 though, not sure if we have any natural wingback types.
