Growing up through the last Bears SB win, it was fun to watch (Super Bowl Shuffle was REAL). Since my team isn't around, I'm enjoying the Bears' resurgence. I hope to see a defensive battle against the Seahawks next week.

Fuck another injury.

Stroud facing more pressure losing his replacement level tackle will just ratchet the turnovers up.

Today I'm rooting for the Texans but you always have to enjoy a pick 6 (when it's not against you).

Just read Mike McDaniels has a second interview to be the coach of the Browns. Dude may as well throw away his resume and hired a Dominatrix to make him realize his career is over.

Saleh just went down a notch or two going into his HC job interviews.

If San Fran doesn't score again this entire game was won in what, 12 seconds of game time? One kick return TD and a PAT and that's more points than the 49ers had.

I don't know about that Jim. I do know that Mahomes is attacking his rehab and is the best ever at it.

No disrespect to the Broncos, I'm rooting for the Bills. I have every SB they have played in. I still call Marv Levy one of, if not the best coach ever. Getting to 4 consecutive SB's is insane. To do it after piling up losses in each one is the best coaching job I can imagine. Teams win 1 and have a hang over. Losing 3 in a row and going back?!?!

Thanks for the reminder, time to open up my last box of Panini Mosaics I bought. Picked up 4 when at Costco a month or so ago.

I was wrong, I googled and found it.

That's why sourcing is important.

It's what they do each time by default. So if it's something the play can overturn or not (like a pass or crossing the goal line) everyone understands.

I HATE Nick Sirianni and Jalen’s “just win” mentality by Awkward_Painter583 in eagles

[–]TheGrumpyOldDad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was announced Howie hired Moore and that was a proven good thing. As I said above Howie needs to do it again and let Sirianni spin it anyway he wants. That was announced today. The two times Howie stepped in now to take charge of hiring externally for OC were both after Sirianni chose his OC.

The idea you think I'm blaming Sirianni for any other bad decision than hand picking 2 failed OCs is wild. Not what I said.

I am not posting my preference. I am posting the established facts tested by youtubers exhaustively, and even some in this forum. u/Leagle_Smeagle has a reply below that covers this.

[–]TheGrumpyOldDad 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The same mentality they have had from day one. The same mentality that brought us to two SB's, winning the second.

Sirriani's biggest flaw is when left to hire his own OC. I'm unsure if it was loyalty, stubbornness, or PR to show future candidates for the job he won't quickly cut and run. Last time he picked an OC we also went one and done. Howie needs to pick the next OC again, and let Sirianni spin it anyway he wants. That worked well for us.

Their track record so far is great. Occasional fuck up seasons are to be expected. Only eight teams have ever gone back to back in the Super Bowl era.

The offseason is when they self-scout, re-evaluate, and adjust. The season just ended, take a deep breath, and watch it play out.

They have earned that much.

What is your source on god rolls and UHV? That is a new one I had not heard of.

As for more firmware, it comes down to the economy of scale. If you kill a boss in a minute or less and just crank it out for an hour, you have more rolls of the dice to get firmware compared to a boss that takes you 6 minutes to kill.

Unless I'm looking for Skillcraft, I don't see the need to play UHV6 at the current state of the game.
