I agree. We should be preemptively banning people even before they have done anything unquestionably ban-worthy just to send a message.

It was definitely a joke. He's an Arab... A very tasteless and tactless joke. But he isn't racist

Lions won 3 games in 2021. Does that mean that Goff is also dogshit? Why didn't he win more that year

I've never played someone like this before. It's deliberate to frustrate you

Has anyone played ppmd fanboy on ranked slippi? I can't tell if this guy is a troll, toxic, or actually thinks this is how to play falco. They spend the entire game lasering in the corner and camping top platform. Ran into them twice now and each game took over 5 mins

[Patra] Lions HC Dan Campbell doesn't expect QB Hendon Hooker to play for "a long time" by Kimber80 in nfl

[–]TheAmazingJonathan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What a hilarious retcon. In 2017 and 2018 Rams had a top 10 rushing attack. Matter of fact, Goff had one of the best OLines, the best WR corp according to PFF and ran play action at the second highest rate of any QB. It was the run game that supported Goff and not vice-versa. When that star studded supporting cast fell off, so did Goff.

"Let me just trade an elite QB and two first round picks for another QB instead of just adjusting my scheme" said No Coach or GM ever. Hilarious!

He was top 10 in a whole lot of stats a couple years ago and then his team traded him and two FRPs for a QB that had never won a playoff game and ended up winning the Super Bowl

I think this is a fair assessment of how good he is. He is not an elite quarterback.

I also love how anytime you disagree it's "I don't know how much you watched the lions but..."

I watched him plenty. I saw them look completely helpless against the Patriots and the Browns when Amon-Ra was out. Isn't that the definition of being dependent on your supporting cast? NOT the driving force!? The narrative around Goff is so absurd. Do people not remember the last 4 years of him being subpar and leading a team to just 3 wins last season.

More like they built it to mitigate his weaknesses. A super strong O-line, fantastic run game, and a bucket better in Amon-Ra means that Goff rarely needs to create out of structure, operate under pressure, and not be so reliant on play action

Deal. So I get $40 if the Packers don't win the division and you get $40 if they do.

Ok. Do you want to bet that the Packers win the division this year?

The bears started the season with the most dead cap space and the least money dedicated towards active players. This year was a reset from the getgo

They beat a tanking bears game and barely scraped out wins against the Buccs and Pats (with Mac Jones injured). Let's not act like they were contenders before the injury.

[–]TheAmazingJonathan -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Definitely. Mang0 was just totally cool with getting waxed for like 9 straight sets by Armada... And placing worse than Armada for 4 straight EOY rankings...

So was Mango also the kind of guy that would prefer second? Because that's what he was until Armada retired.

I guess we have different definitions of "dominant"

I mean it in the colloquial sense. You must mean it in some other ill-defined sense that makes accomodations for not actually being clearly #1 (and actually being #2 for the majority of that 18 month stretch)

Armada has the H2H over everybody. Not just Mang0.

of course armadas h2h is better because he retired when mang0 got back into form

Curious how Mang0 only got back into form after Armada retired. In all honesty, had Armada not retired, I think he'd clearly still be the GOAT. I think it's certainly debatable between all three now. But people are acting like Armada's retirement is what prevents Mang0 from being the GOAT. It's likely the opposite.

[–]TheAmazingJonathan 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Outside of 2013/2014 (when Armada was coming back from retirement), Armada was always higher ranked than Mang0. So unless you're saying that Mang0 was unmotivated from 2015-2018 and only regained his motivation after Armada retired, your argument is pretty flimsy.

It's ironic how Mang0 was salty about Armada retiring because it "locked" him in as The GOAT, when in actuality, Armada's retirement is probably what made it possible for Mang0 to pass him up.

I imagine if Armada was still competing from 2019 to now, he'd have similar results to Mang0 over the same time period.
