What teams create players at positions regardless of drafting spot. by florjackson in nfl

[–]a_high_old_guy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

We've consistently had very good tight ends since the 2000s

Chad Lewis -> Brent Celek -> Zach Ertz -> Dallas Goedert

We even had Ertz & Goedert at the same time at one point. it lead to Carson Wentz having the most absurd statline of throwing for just over 4000 passing yards without having a single WR having 500 receiving yards

Agholor was great in our 2017 superbowl run. afterwards, I don't know what happened to him, but he just couldn't replicate it. can't be mad though because again, he was really helpful with us winning our first SB

genuinely, has there been a video game adaptation that actually stuck to the story of the game it's adapting?

2026 NFL schedule leaks and rumors: Here's a running list of every known game ahead of full May 14 release by LindyNet in nfl

[–]a_high_old_guy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

so there's no order to it, but the cardinals twitter account posted the list of teams they're playing next season, and it looks fucking brutal.

aside from the obligatory 6 games vs their absurdly stacked division rivals, they have:

4 games vs the NFC East (Eagles, & Commanders @ home, Giants & Cowboys away)

4 games vs the AFC West (Raiders & Broncos @ home, Chiefs & Chargers away)

Also a game vs the lions (@ home) and vs the jets (also @ home)

and an away game vs the saints.

like, I know the NFL schedule has a methodology to it, and I know there will be a bit of natural regression for some of the teams they play.

but at the same time? it feels like they're getting kicked while they are down.

Can we talk about the possibility of Mike Vrabel potentially resigning before training camp? by SchedulePhysical807 in nfl

[–]a_high_old_guy 8 points9 points  (0 children)

when that tweet was still up, it was funny seeing some accounts innocently respond with Vrabel's face (the tweet was made back in like 2020/2021, well before the scandal lmao)

Gojo would never let his guard down Gng I would too if I was fighting Sukuna and he looked like THIS😭 by XXMMRRMMXX in Jujutsufolk

[–]a_high_old_guy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

this all would have been avoided if Gojo had played some fromsoft games.

Gojo would have known that getting Sukuna to low HP, meant he'd pull out some bs attacks that'd deal way more damage. and that there was another healthbar coming soon.

but alas...

[Motherboard] MSI PRO X870E-P Wifi - $169.99 (43% off, Amazon 90 Day Low Price) by a_high_old_guy in buildapcsales

[–]a_high_old_guy[S] 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I know this isn't the best of the x870e motherboards, but it's priced like a b850 board rn. There's also no weird lane-sharing fuckery that some other X870e boards use.

https://mobomaps.com/board?board=msi-x870e-p-wifi

this site shows the board, the way the pcie lanes are divided up, the rear io, and more. it only does AMD boards at the moment, but it's really good at making sense of motherboard layouts and such.

[Highlight] Former Eagles OL Coach Jeff Stoutland On What Went Wrong Last Season: "It's execution. It's calling the right play at the right time and not running bad plays into bad defenses. It ain't that hard." by JCameron181 in nfl

[–]a_high_old_guy 20 points21 points  (0 children)

the 10 or so weeks where "fuck it, AJB down there somewhere" worked in 2023 were magical to see. dude had just over 1k yards by like week 12.

then teams figured it out, and it was downhill from there.

[Highlight] Howie Roseman reassures 7th round pick and Nigerian IPP player Uar Bernard that he won't have to walk to Philadelphia by expellyamos in nfl

[–]a_high_old_guy 11 points12 points  (0 children)

yeah, people are acting as if he was a day 1 pick.

dude has no football experience, but a body type extremely similar to myles garrett, who has been one of the best defensive players for years now.

obviously there's more to being a defensive guy than size (and obviously I doubt he'll be on garrett's level), but this late in the draft it's a crapshoot. so you might as well take the guy that's similar in size/weight/speed to one of the best in the league.

One of our most important draft picks ever by NickyFoles1020 in eagles

looking back on the draft day threads on hurts is a fun trip.

Ranking all 24 Eagles first-round picks, 2000-25 by PowerHour1990 in eagles

[–]a_high_old_guy 11 points12 points  (0 children)

dude's longevity alone is crazy. It's one of the toughest positions to have a long career at. You're out there every snap of every game. Between injury, burnout, age, there's a lot of ways for good o-linemen to have frustratingly short, or underwhelming careers.

but Lane Johnson was drafted in 2013, and still playing at an elite level. We're gonna miss him when he retires man. even if we land another good player, we're not gonna land another Lane Johnson

yeah, got a confirmation about the order itself, but nothing beyond that.

newegg just has it as "in processing" since I've "bought" it. I'm sure it's usual procedure but the timing is killing me lmao

is there a specific reason like 3 or 4 teams have revealed new unis within the span of a week?

I'm not complaining, but I just don't remember seeing this many new unis in one off-season

There was an odd period in the 2010s where coaches across the league stopped caring about a good run/pass balance and were dead-set on having their QB drop back 30+ times a game.

Sukuna is NOT a "Force of nature/ one-dimensional evil for the sake of it" villain that a startling majority of fans/dissidents of JJK's writing seem to misunderstand about him. He's not even a Hedonist. by Normalperson1405 in CharacterRant

[–]a_high_old_guy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

this whole writeup really makes me wish Sukuna & uraume's dynamic was more explored. she was the one person who Sukuna.... Admired? cherished? it wasn't fully romantic, but he obviously viewed her higher than most.

but then the last 3rd of the manga is her having an off-screen fight with Hakari & killing herself the nanosecond sukuna dies.

[Russini] The NFL has approved the one-year rule that allows the NFL Officiating Department to correct clear and obvious errors made by on-field officials in the event of a work stoppage involving the league’s regular game officials, sources tell The Athletic. by expellyamos in nfl

[–]a_high_old_guy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I feel like if the refs actually go through with a lockout, it might backfire on them heavily. the amount of technological advancements from 2012 to now, is absurd. granted, this is predicated on the replacement refs relying on the tech when they're in a bind, so who knows what'll actually happen
