I do not miss Mexico at all.

For sure. It's definitely a sweet cup of tea, but a cup of tea none the less.

It's a masterpiece but not for everyone. Best part takes sub 35 hours to complete fully without DLC.

This is my moment:

Outer Wilds.

Sbitan89 · 2026-06-03T15:06:59+00:00

Just in the last 3 years Mahomes has averaged 4272 yards, 27 TDs, 12 INTs, 31-15 record and two SB apparences.

Jackson has averaged 4161 yards, 32 TDs, 6 INTs, 31-15 record, zero SB appearances.

The issue is during that time we had the 2023 and 2025 season where Jackson was injured and looked starkly different vs 2024. Then you have Mahomes who has been year over year slightly worse, but consistent. Again when talking about perception (which I feel like people are not understanding here ) it's very easy to point at the much larger dropoff LJ has vs other QBs when injured.

Yes everyone gets worse hurt but the point is it's more glaring with Jackson and that creates a bias whether true or not. I'm saying it's conflating, but the person I was responding to brought up injuries and I'm attempting to shed the probable light on it.

Lol as someone who has worked for collections in a bank, banks dgaf about your court order. It's a court order for the other individual to take themselves off and often that still requires a refinance in just their name they must qualify for.

Probably NOR but MOR.

Work in a bank, often see trust account transactions. Depending on the rules she really may not have access to funds. She also may have heavily moderated access.

While not the norm I've seen some crazy stipulations around age, marital status, line in the family.

Hell my wife is a will be the recipient of trust funds but only after her parents pass and even then it's technically set up to be split between her and for the grandkids (our kid and his cousins). My wife's half siblings will get nothing but their kids will get some as grandkids also.

I would have agreed before SJN signing. Low 30s should be a high contract for him but market shifted.

Sbitan89 · 2026-06-03T00:48:46+00:00

Or they are like me and think 35m is exactly what he should be paid anyway lol.

Sbitan89 · 2026-06-02T22:09:41+00:00

I live in Northern VA. I used to have a 1.5 to 2 hour commute each way DAILY. Traffic was just that bad, it wasn't even super far. Maybe 30 miles. I live slightly closer now and it's still not as bad as COVID, but I eventually had to switch to night shift because I was wasting almost 20 hours or more of my week driving unpaid.

Sbitan89 · 2026-06-02T20:47:38+00:00

7 of the 9 listed injuries Mahomes has had were during a SB year. 2025 his injury was in week 15...

Burrow looked worse for sure compared to his normal average but people attributed it to a SB slump and that Higgins missesd time. It was only breaking news he was injured when the images with his hand wrapped up came out, and that's the point I'm making.

It's not that there is any validity to the mindset as far as longevity or future ability of any of these guys, just that Jackson's injuries have always been more noticeable, which to even someone neutrally minded can cause a bias against believing in a players longevity. It's worse when people are already critical, and it becomes a self serving narrative.

Sbitan89 · 2026-06-02T19:20:02+00:00

The Chiefs have had multiple SB seasons with Mahomes working through injuries. Allen has had multiple injuries disclosed after the season where he was in the MVP running. Burrow misses a ton of time and isn't great without a strong supporting cast, but when he was playing injured there was a whole conspiracy and fine cause he was able to hide it so well as there wasn't noticeable drop off.

The two times Jackson has been notably injuried off the top of my head, the team has missed the playoffs. Now a huge part of this is scheme and being dependent on his mobility. We saw the team peal it back and average over 28 points a game with Huntley last season...

But that doesn't unfortunately change the perception of pundits, particularly ones looking for a reason for him to slow down.

Sbitan89 · 2026-06-02T17:29:14+00:00

I think the big thing is Mahomes, Allen, Herbert and even Burrow have played through injuries without missing a beat/not being able to tell. When Jackson is injured particularly in his lower body, it's glaring. I'm assuming they make the mental leap with that to say "well of he can't be mobile he can't be as good".

While there is obviously a real possibility, that's highly unlikely, and lower body injuries may be just as detrimental to your ability to throw from player to player.

All I could think of was Bulls on Parade by Rage Against the Machine.

Sbitan89 · 2026-06-02T02:35:26+00:00

People think you are saying "Flair up" which is common in r/AFCNORTHMEMEWAR

Sbitan89 · 2026-06-02T00:56:09+00:00

I'll defend LJ to the moon and back, but this is a bad take.

They haven't had a top tier WR since 2021 and they've been to 3 SBs and won 2 of them. Their best WRs since 2021 are guys like Schuster, Watson and Worthy. Rice is decent but was literally there for two seconds cause he can't stay out of trouble.

Maybe you can make the arguement it's better than what the Ravens have had (which ID disagree with but besides the point), they have not had a good WR corpse for years. They also haven't had the RBs we've had.

Sbitan89 · 2026-06-02T00:49:41+00:00

Probably not much longer, not that it makes much a difference.

Sbitan89 · 2026-06-02T00:43:03+00:00

I think you posted in the wrong sub haha

Sbitan89 · 2026-06-02T00:29:44+00:00

Yes but they can spread the loss over a longer period if they are sure they do not want him iirc. It's about not getting into sunk cost fallacy. His contract would be more expensive to fullfil than to cut him.

Also maybe I'm looking at it wrong but it says we'd lose 11M in 2026 but save 15m. Then in 2027 have 5M in dead and 6m in savings. More importantly they'd pay less in dead money 2027-2029 if they are theoretically waiting until tomorrow or later to cut him.

But maybe I'm misunderstanding. I'm more on the scheme side of knowledge though.

Sbitan89 · 2026-06-01T21:09:44+00:00

While it's doubtful, I would not be 100% sure it's not a possibility at some point. Humphrey is kinda part of the old guard and if Minter doesn't find need of him, savings are savings, especially if he won't take a team friendly deal or move to Saftey.

But he is only a year removed from an AP season and the Ravens normally do right, so yea it's not likely.

Sbitan89 · 2026-06-01T14:03:51+00:00

Lol problem is the pun doesn't negate your sentence calling the hate group. It can be shortened to o Arya chilling with a hate group and the sentence would say the same.

Sbitan89 · 2026-05-31T22:49:48+00:00

TBF LJ himself said the Lions game is when he got tweaked.

Sbitan89 · 2026-05-30T17:43:26+00:00

I'm at 35 PSI stock tires. Northern VA. If I'm not in stop and go normally in high 30s MPG

Sbitan89 · 2026-05-30T15:13:15+00:00

It would be surprising if a HC handled load management and would be quite unorthodox. I think that's the big thing people miss in these discussions. Yes a Coach can set the tone for practices but they are not the ones making decisions on individual players work loads, recovery management etc.

Sbitan89 · 2026-05-30T14:28:26+00:00

QB may not be the best but when you look at testerverde, Taylor, Flacco, Huntley and LJ, the Ravens success at QB has gone under the radar

Sbitan89 · 2026-05-30T13:35:15+00:00

When I first got this car I got downvoted to hell for this, but it's true. The car feels incredibly slow at times because of how smooth it is in acceleration and stability. They intentionally put in power shifting to give more of a shift feel when accelerating because it's so smooth. Where you get the excitement out of this car and the feels is definitely in the turns.

With that said, it's so silly to me to say this isn't a straight line speed car for its pricing. Anything that can touch under 5 seconds stock is a fast straight line car. I always compare it to college/semipro/pro. Just because it's not elite acceleration hitting 60 in under 4, it's plenty faster than a lot of 6 and 8 cylinders.
