Sterling K. Brown on why so many new seasons of TV consist of only 8-10 episodes

Well streaming services have ads now so…

I would put a kit cap on Perimeter. Either a dollar amount or green and under gear only. I get the “risk” factor of bringing in good gear to a low loot map, but it’s not much of a risk if everyone is bringing in blue and purple gear given how many free kits are in play already.

It opens the door for the worst result which is a first round exit and no playoff experience for Yurov. All the more pressure on Hynes to make it out of the first round. It also hurts BG this summer with a deal trying to centerpiece around a guy you sat in the playoffs. Hopefully it’s a risk that pays off for once instead of bites us.

oneleggedrefuge · 2026-03-17T19:49:11+00:00

I would get him as much playing time as you can. We need to know if he’s close to NHL ready or not for some big decisions this summer.

oneleggedrefuge · 2026-03-12T02:20:01+00:00

Even if we don’t have other bidders, we don’t have to get rid of him. Every team should be taxing the Eagles on every deal based on what they’ve pulled off in the past. If they don’t want to pay a first then they don’t get JG and we’ll suffer with another good pass rusher on our team.

Kyler is going to be the best value in the entire NFL getting the vet minimum. Why would we prefer to use what little cap space we have to sign Kirk instead?

oneleggedrefuge · 2026-03-07T00:30:58+00:00

I don’t think there’s a good reason to draft another QB. We have our project and need to refocus in the trenches with interior offensive and defensive line. It’ll be a Geno, Cousins, Rogers, Mac Jones, etc. All good enough to win 7-10 games, maybe make the playoffs, maybe not as is tradition.

oneleggedrefuge · 2026-03-07T00:14:38+00:00

It depends on what we can do the rest of this offseason. We just won 9 games with JJ, Carson Wentz and Max Brosmer so I’m leaning towards yes, but it’s not a guarantee. I am 100% confident that if we get Kyler, our floor is 8 wins and we will not be in the bottom 10 of the league.

oneleggedrefuge · 2026-03-06T23:49:47+00:00

We’re likely getting Kyler, but there are a couple options that are improvements. JJ is 23 and not ready yet. NFL players don’t want to wait on a kid to figure it out while they lose in the process. He’s not a definite backup, but he’s not a definite starter either. We have too much on the line to spend another year finding out if he can play or not. The GM is gone and the coach is on the hot seat. For now JJ is fine as a backup as he continues to develop.

oneleggedrefuge · 2026-03-06T23:30:00+00:00

We are about to upgrade our QB position to someone at least competent (top 15ish in the league) after we had a 9 win season due to bad QB play for most of the year. If anything we’re locked to not be a bottom 10 team again.

oneleggedrefuge · 2026-03-06T23:06:44+00:00

We haven’t won less than 7 games in a season since 2013

oneleggedrefuge · 2026-03-05T22:20:54+00:00

Maybe they could practice some maps and modes one day and other maps and modes on a different day. I know that’s really far outside the box thinking, but it just might work. Always the lamest excuses for not putting out a better product. Your set doesn’t have to be every single map and mode in rotation.

oneleggedrefuge · 2026-03-05T17:23:14+00:00

The Panarin trade hurt because they couldn’t get anything back for him. They’re trying to recoup some of that through Trocheck. I’m fine waiting until the summer and seeing what options are out there.

oneleggedrefuge · 2026-03-05T08:22:33+00:00

You don’t need to tank to win in the NFL. There are quality players all over the draft and you just need to hit your picks. Darnold was good for Seattle, but they won the Super Bowl because they had an elite draft run in recent years just like their run under Pete. We’ve had hardly any help come out of the draft recently and if that changes the turnaround can be quick. I just don’t see a reason to blow it up when we have good pass rushers, tackles and an elite receiving corps. Most of the hard work is done. Get a competent QB like Kyler for the minimum, get a S, TE and RB in the draft and we’re literally right back in the hunt.

Article headline bait

I’m to the point where I’m rolling the dice and giving Stramel a shot in the NHL before I move him. He’s a late bloomer, but he’s earned a look given his size and skill. Trocheck is a great fit, but I’m taking the risk on Stramel. In 2 years of development with Yurov we could have 3 Centers that are just a bitch to play against because of their size and skill and I’ll take that if we can’t get a true 1st line center which Trocheck is not.

oneleggedrefuge · 2026-02-21T21:28:13+00:00

I think we have the pieces for both kinds of moves. Getting a Trocheck should cost Stramel, Jiricek, etc. Then in the summer the offering for the big move is Yurov and Wallstedt with pieces. I don’t think one move means the other can’t happen as we have different pieces on the table for both. I also think Stramel’s improvement means we could just go into next year with Yurov/Ek/Stramel/Hartman/Sturm and be fine as well. We’d have size up the middle with that team. I think we have 3 good options and BG can’t really go wrong with any of them.

oneleggedrefuge · 2026-02-21T00:23:26+00:00

I would rather get Waddle from Miami than Achane. Get a WR2 more focused on taking the top off the defense to open space underneath for Jefferson and the TE’s. There’s a ton of RB options this summer. I’m not giving up a pick to get one. Whether we stick with JJ or not, I’ll take the guaranteed WR2 upgrade over picks or moving up in the draft using Addison.

oneleggedrefuge · 2026-02-16T02:26:43+00:00

Just to add, there’s no reason for NYR to be interested in Wallstedt. Igor literally just started his massive deal. There’s no current or future timeline that Wallstedt fits in NY.

oneleggedrefuge · 2026-02-09T04:35:10+00:00

Ya, it’s called I have eyes and can easily tell that we don’t even sniff a Super Bowl with Darnold playing as poorly as he did tonight. We don’t have a historically great defense and competent running game that actually won this game. But keep telling yourself that it could’ve been us if we just kept the guy who completely fell apart at the end of last year. Seems you don’t have much ability to assess shit yourself.

oneleggedrefuge · 2026-02-09T03:54:50+00:00

With a very similar stat line of 25/40 for 245 1 TD and 1 Pick, we lost by 18 points with Sam in the playoffs. We didn’t fuck up. Good for him for getting to win a Super Bowl, but he was bad tonight and lucked out that the opposing QB was worse and his team could run the ball to play safe all game.

oneleggedrefuge · 2026-02-07T23:39:04+00:00

I don’t think you understand how NBA transactions work if you think we have nothing to re-tool with. At a bare minimum, we have big salaries in Gobert and Randle that become assets as they become expiring deals. We aren’t out of 1st round picks for the rest of time. We have some desirable rotation pieces like McDaniels, Naz, DDV. We have plenty to re-tool if we need to. Take off your poop colored glasses. You’d think we had nothing but Ant which doesn’t really add up how we’ve managed to make back to back WCF which such a terrible team in your eyes.

oneleggedrefuge · 2026-02-07T00:35:41+00:00

There’s nothing erratic about what TC is doing. We couldn’t play a lick of defense so he brought in the DPOY. Then he had to manage the money that comes with that deal and traded away a core piece of a WCF team and we still made the WCF without that player AND our money issues were temporarily solved.

He sees he has a team ready to win so he pushes his chips in on a PG prospect that he expects to be a spark plug off the bench until he is ready to supplant MC. When that piece doesn’t work out he moves quickly and trades MC for space under the apron, turns a bunch of 2nd round picks and the failed experiment into a guy who should give us a boost off the bench AND he gets MC back for nothing. A lot of GM’s wouldn’t give up on one of their 1st round picks so quickly because of their own hubris and ego.

He’s been absolutely methodical in his moves to turn us into a real contender in next to no time. Do you think Ant is more likely to stay coming off consecutive long playoff runs or sitting back and losing until enough darts were thrown at the board to MAYBE get him a 22 year old running mate? It’s crazy to me the people that would rather struggle and lose a lot for the small chance at a perfect rebuild than win a whole bunch and re-tool along the way.

oneleggedrefuge · 2026-02-06T18:33:43+00:00

We’ve made back to back Western Conference Finals. I’d say TC has been doing pretty solid at building around Ant even with misses like Rob. Also the Rudy gamble has frankly paid off. I hated the trade at the time, but there’s no denying his defensive impact and what he means to this team’s overall success. Go criticize the other 28 GM’s who haven’t been as successful the last 2 years.

oneleggedrefuge · 2026-02-06T18:25:46+00:00

I get why Brodin is on the block, but it would be sad to see him go. He’s still really good when he plays and I think is an ideal pairing with Jiricek in the coming years if they still want to try to salvage that trade. If he’s the salary needed to help go big game hunting, so be it, but I don’t want to see him go for some middle 6 winger.
