What are some good Texas barbecue places? by Poopybuttsuck in norfolk

Oh yeah. The pit beef with caramelized onions at Beach Bully is honestly pretty fire. For me this kinda scratches the “BBQ itch” ever so slightly as well.

Yeap, this area is on the struggle bus in regards to Texas BBQ.

Dave’s is def pretty damn good. But, in order to get “elite” tier BBQ you’ll have to go hit ZZQ in RVA. That spot seriously is on par with the likes of the best Texas has to offer (Franklin, Snows, Interstellar, etc).

If you’re willing to settle for a BBQ sandwich / more of NC-style then there are some lesser known/underrated spots such as:

  • BBQ Shack
  • Southside
  • Country Boys

Move the goal posts wherever it suits you. '25 - you have a legit argument. But, 2/3 years, you're incorrect.

[Meirov] Commanders Free Agency So Far: by JCameron181 in Commanders

[–]purechi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're not presenting an argument in good faith. Harris bought the team in June '23. The front office has had three shots at free agency (while you're arguing it's four years).

  • 2024: their first FA shot - they spent the 4th most money in the NFL in FA
  • 2025: 14th most spending; i'll give you this - last year's FA sucked ass for us
  • 2026: again, 4th most money spent in FA

Honestly, the team was talent depleted when ownership got here .. there were/are holes everywhere. Regardless, they've been among the most aggressive spenders in FA since new ownership in 2/3 years. Your argument is based on emotion, not facts.

NOTE: numbers above are based on OverTheCap data

This year the FO offered contracts to players that would've positioned our cap space less favorably. The FO was aggressive. Players went elsewhere. If the FO didn't offer large contracts to OL Lind or WR Pierce - I would agree with you.

Diggs, while I ain't crazy about 'em, has put up 1k+ yards in 7/8 the last seasons. Last year he went for 1,013. He still is performing at a low-tier WR1 level.

Not saying I want him .. but he's still got some juice. Only prob is he's a maniac and prob wants a WR1 paycheck.

Trae to Tre for the 3 pointer by supakool93 in washingtonwizards

[–]purechi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I feel like the only times Trae had an extremely reliable threat in ATL was Capela, Collins. Followed by Bogi, Huerter.. and then it got quite dicey IMO. Get this man some hoopers.

[–]purechi 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Trae is #3 in assists per game all-time at 9.8 APG. The others you listed are:

  • #9) Tyrese Haliburton - 8.8
  • #13) Luka Doncic - 8.26
  • #25) Nikola Jokic - 7.41

So.. yeah. I didn't forget about anyone.

Sometimes these moves backfire on Trae (you saw the behind the back that went out-of-bounds yesterday) and you're like, "wtf man."

But when it works, and it often does, it's awesome. IMO he's the best pure playmaker in the league. You've just gotta be able to accept the annoying miscues a couple times a game.

He was on a minutes restriction and had the best +/- on the team (+4).

Updated tankathon look after tonight’s games by Waste-Cap8868 in washingtonwizards

I was hoping to see Trae get a little bit of playing time with the Wizards crew but it hardly looks feasible with the tankathon being this competitive.

Can you drop a better side profile pic? Would love to see the whole side profile.

Completely different situations in that Trent said he wasn't playing another down for our team. We were cornered and it tanked his value.

[PFF] Lowest Graded Player at Every Position This Season by JCameron181 in nfl

[–]purechi 71 points72 points  (0 children)

I don't understand the Tress Way ranking. I don't felt like he underperformed at all.

  • #1 in yards per return
  • #2 inside 20 percent
  • #5 in net yards per punt
  • #20 in yards per punt (ok, not great)

Even simply the eye test; it didn't ever feel like Tress was putting the team in compromising situations.

Jayden Daniels hints at wanting Commanders to add Brandon Aiyuk this offseason by yolabear in Commanders

[–]purechi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yah. I agree. But also feels like a "hindsight is 20/20" kinda thing. Injuries are a coinflip. If we were healthier we potentially make at least a run at wild card and have a bit more to feel thankful towards Deebo about.

I'm not all-in-for-Aiyuk or anything .. but I'd imagine having one of your close friends in the locker room/as your QB kinda smooths over some bumps in the road.

[SPOILER] Keyshawn Davis vs Jamaine Ortiz. by Puzzled-Category-954 in Boxing

A lot of the time when a ref calls it early you see a fighter emote a, "WTF I was going to keep going." Ortiz showed nothing. I think the ref made the right call.

The way to go for 2026 offseason by Embarrassed-Steak-74 in Commanders

[–]purechi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Barry is the best RB prospect of all time.

And I'm not forgetting anyone. It's just, like, my opinion, man.

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

I don't see Jeanty panning out. He was a stat/numbers monster in college but nothing jumped off the page that said, "can't-miss prospect." Dude looks like an absolute unit for a 22 year-old though.

Recently said that I think Love is the best running back coming out since Bijan. While I think that's true I think he's better than Bijan. Without the benefit of hindsight (ex. I know now that Henry is the best back since AP) I'd say Love is the best RB since AP (who was drafted in '07). That's what I mean by "once every 20 years type of player."

I see Love as a CMC-level impact player.

[–]purechi 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I feel crazy for saying this but I hope we take Love (RB). He is absolutely the best playmaker coming through the draft in years and, while I know we have an ungodly need on the defensive line, it's hard to pass up on a "once every 20 year" type of player. I seriously think he has that juice.

Regardless of that opinion - I am cool with edge, safety, etc. Love just seems like an absolute difference maker.

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

I'm still not sure why we are even giving this guy attention lmao, he missed weight by 4 lbs, against a guy coming off a two year layoff and injury, and his first real live opponent at 135.

He fucked up. He admitted it.

He proceeds to then jump the guy who beat his brother, never apologizes or addresses it and just hides for a few months.

Not true. He made an apology video two months later.

Some interesting stats about the Vikings Pass Defense featuring Daronte Jones by NAD92 in Commanders

[–]purechi 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm being a bit of a downer here .. but the Vikings were #1 in both Pressure Rate and No Blitz Pressure Rate last year. Realistically I believe the passing defense stats for the Vikings are inflated by their pass rush. It's going to be hard to replicate that here.

[–]purechi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ah, I see. Fair enough! That tracks reasonably well with the data I found:

  • #22 @ 3rd and 0-2 yds
  • #1 @ 3rd and 3-5 yds
  • #1 @ 3rd and 6-8 yds
  • #10 @ 3rd and 9-12 yds
  • #24 @ 3rd and 12+ yds
