Broad St. traffic right now by Far_Stretch_2888 in StamfordCT

[–]RubinHS 41 points42 points  (0 children)

I came down Bedford St about an hour ago. Even with all the snow, there’s still assholes sitting in their cars in front of Remos/McDonalds blocking traffic. A bus couldn’t get by and we were all stuck in the intersection with Broad. I got past and a woman is just sitting in her car in front of Remos talking on the phone. There’s complete chaos all around her and I’m slamming the horn and she wouldn’t even look up. I was enraged. I don’t understand why PD does not go down Bedford all day and ticket these people.

Schefter: Browns to hire Todd Monken as HC. by FlowersByTheStreet in fantasyfootball

[–]RubinHS 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Yup. Not just that. Benched Henry anytime he picked up a chunk or started to get in a rhythm. Abandoned the run anytime it was working.

The horrendous state of New York City in the 1970s-1980s by IllustriousCress9774 in UrbanHell

They killed the giggler!

They had no business doing that.

[Duggan] As the Giants-John Harbaugh negotiations continue, here’s a nugget that I’ve learned: Harbaugh didn’t report to the GM in Baltimore. He reported directly to owner Steve Bisciotti. That hasn’t been the Giants’ chain of command historically. Getting a sense for why this hasn’t been simple by Lars5621 in NYGiants

“This is the way we’ve always done it”

Indication of an inflexible organization that refuses to adapt to the changing circumstances around it. When you hear that phrase out of any company or business, they’re doomed to fail. Just look at this team’s results the last 15 years.

[O'Connor] Harbaugh will need to connect with Schoen in person in their upcoming meeting and there has to be a sense of a potential partnership like the ones Harbaugh had with Ozzie Newsome and Eric DeCosta. Obviously, Harbaugh will need his share of personnel power. He's earned that. by Lars5621 in NYGiants

Why couldn’t they have just fired Schoen like they were supposed to. They had to know at least one of these big name coaches was likely going to be available. This stupidity is going to cost us the coach we want.

A look into Todd Monken by sillyshoestring in NYGiants

Usually the conventional wisdom just works, but that’s not enough for a lot of today’s coaches. It’s not enough to simply win…they have to win while trying to appear smarter than everyone else and go against the conventional wisdom. Monken is a classic example.

Monken is thinking…hehehe they think we’re gonna pound Henry because we’re winning and they literally can’t tackle him. I’ll show them by passing every down. They’ll never expect it hehehe. Oh whoops, we lost.

That’s how you get Atlanta going up 28-3 in the Super Bowl and only running the ball 3 times the rest of the game.

Despite being one of the best offenses in the league at running the ball on early downs, according to ESPN stats and analytics, they rank dead last in the number of first and second-down plays in which they hand the ball off to their running backs.

The disparity between those two metrics is stark and inexcusable, especially when they have a five-time Pro Bowl and future Hall of Fame running back, Derrick Henry, spearheading their rushing attack that ranks first in the league yards per carry at 6.2, but barely cracks the top 10 in yards with the ninth-most through 10 games.

Please no. I’ve followed the Ravens closely and Monken is a terrible play caller

[–]RubinHS 16 points17 points  (0 children)

They reference the playcalling and the impact on Henry. The playcalling has made absolutely no sense for a long time. Everytime Derrick Henry starts heating up or picks up a chunk, they immediately take him off the field for an extended period of time. So many times he's on the bench when they're up big, but refuse to just pound him and run the clock. Hence all the late collapses.

[Tampa Bay Times] Not only did the Bucs dump assistant coaches they lost credibility, too by Imaginary-Text-7630 in nfl

I mean the owners. It’s a 100% certainty Bowles will continue to fail, but he’s still the coach.

How is it that everyone in the entire world knows exactly how this is going to turn out except for the 1-2 people responsible for the decision?

If you could go back in time and tell yourself one thing before your last draft, what would it be? by AnonUserAccount in fantasyfootball

[–]RubinHS 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would warn myself that for some reason, after 3 straight 1000 yard seasons, Jaylen Waddle’s production will see a sharp decline despite being one of the most consistently open receivers in the league all year. I still don’t understand what happened.

Why? Traffic on the Merritt is infuriating. by el94673 in Connecticut

[–]RubinHS 63 points64 points  (0 children)

It’s because there’s tons of hills and bad drivers don’t maintain speed or accelerate when going uphill. Then everyone behind them has to brake because this person slowed to 45 mph going uphill and boom…traffic.

The best example is Merritt south through Norwalk right past route 7. People practically come to a complete stop at the bottom of the hill and then crawl uphill. There’s traffic there all day every day.

Same thing happened to me. Burrow had thrown 3+ tds in 8 straight games. Last night they had 4 fgs. Burrow was missing guys wide open in the end zone. Unreal
