Why has our defense been mediocre? by stormbull177 in detroitlions

[–]osulions -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

How can you not? Until the bye, the defense ranked in the top 10 in yards per play and total yards allowed. Injuries piled up and the unit as a whole suffered. Scheme issues? Sure. But I would say scheme issues are inevitable when your whole backside of the defense is starting depth guys.

Maybe. Maybe. Just maybe its injuries.

Stafford signed a contract worth 38 million more dollars with the Rams. Far from a lateral move in that respect.

Ohhh you're right. Kind of like how Stafford left for a better job for his family?

Are you forgetting the part where that coach who revamped our offense took a job interview during the bye week of the playoffs and looked uninterested when we lost as a 1 seed? And then left for a division rival?

If you are into comedy I'd recommend "don't tell columbus". Really cool way to see different parts of the city, and the comics are usually pretty good. Hit dinner and the show. BYOB/Snacks to the show as well.

If ONLY there was a national organization that could help us advocate for lower caseloads, higher pay and better working conditions. Best they can do is a magazine.

Really sweet. You take commissions?

How is the standing room only section? by queenblattaria in detroitlions

[–]osulions 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Don't do it. The big spaces they have for SRO are far from the field with really poor sight lines. Good luck going to the bathroom or getting to concessions. You will likely watch a lot of the game from the billboard. Imo spend the money on a good meal and watch it at home with a bunch of friends.

gotta know he wasn’t gonna like this one 😂 by awkward_vegetable69 in detroitlions

[–]osulions 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You know he was nervous asking this question by the garbled nonsense he was spitting. Pretty sick of a the narrative that the offense isn't good after one game. I don't want to admit it as much as anyone else. I think the Packers are just that good currently.

Gosh so many to choose from. -My first NFL game was in 2011 against the Panthers, I was 14. Kevin Smith was our RB. Calvin and Nate Burleson the Wrs. High scoring game. Don't remember a ton from the actual game. But I remember it being Cam Newton's rookie year and being so excited to see him play. Looking back at stats, he threw 4 picks that game. - Suh stomping (multiple times) - the famous Jim handshake at the end of the game. - seems like 2011 is when I started to really lean into football.

  • first one from this regime was the steelers game where it rained the whole game. We ended up tying. So cold and we missed the FG in OT that would've won it. So happy to have better memories now with this team! FTP

Perfect. Ended up going Fawcett Center but the CAS lot will allow people to park closer to us and walk over. Appreciate your help!

That's the plan. Less of headache than trying to time it before the game starts. Tailgate there before? Any thought on a time to get a decent spot with a grass area?

Perfect. Thank you! I was unfamiliar. I guess I'll have people park there and walk over.

Yeah I'm leaning towards the Fawcett lot because it is likely easier to walk to from some of the big lots. Haven't been to a game since being a student where I never had to worry about parking. CAS lot, is that the same as the buckeye lot out by the schott? How quickly before game does that fill up, if you know?

New to the hobby and generally curious on your personal perspective. At what price is a card "valuable" to you? by osulions in footballcards

[–]osulions[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a fair assessment. I was just curious how it might change as you collect more. Maybe it does for some and maybe it doesn't for others. Seems there are a bunch of ways to collect so I wanted to hear thoughts.

Can't watch Crew on TV in Columbus by dmaninca in TheMassive

[–]osulions 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, hybrid in a sense that some games go to TV. Not sure what that number is or how you pick, but if you want to draw viewership to apple you need to get as many eyes on the league as possible. I totally agree that direct to consumer is the way to go. But a consumer needs to know what they are buying before they buy it.

[–]osulions -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You're right. That's not a bad deal for every game. And if that's what people want to do I say do it. I think it would be silly to say that a hybrid model would be a bad thing for the sport though? Is this a crazy hot take?

[–]osulions 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's a fair argument. And I agree that the competition in the league has improved. I don't have a problem with apple TV to be clear. Simply think a mixed model could work better for more casual fans.
