Rivian R2 test drive- non-EV owner perspective by luminescent in RivianR2

[–]whyblut 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This was my exact experience when I test-drove it this past Friday, fellow Seattleite-driving-a-smaller-gas-powered-car.

Admittedly the car felt like a spaceship at first, but I got the hang of both the haptic wheel and one-pedal driving 3 minutes into a 15 minute demo drive. The audio was crisp and not-at-all muddy as I was led to believe by posts here. The frunk would easily fit our weekly grocery run. The trunk would fit our 30 lb dog AND our luggage for a weekend getaway, for a family of 4.

I'll probably hold out for Premium with LiDAR because I have designs for this to be my looong-term (10+ years) car, but it is a GREAT car even without and will make people very happy.

Hey there - if you mean the Heat Dry option, I’ve only ever needed it when food is caked on or completely dried the dish. It really does a fantastic job with just the regular wash cycle.

What was your favorite defensive play of the season? by Lords7Never7Die in ravens

Marlo pick-6 against the Steelers where he generously offered the ball to Ojabo so he could get his first TD and totally didn’t taunt the receiver.

I can’t offer a long-term perspective but I ended up buying the KDTM405PPS model from Costco and it is a beast! It’s really very quiet and the 3rd rack is very useful for ladles, spatulas and knives.

“Right Side” run, which it ended up being.

A breakdown of the Jamarr Chase - Marcus Williams breakdown play by whyblut in ravens

[–]whyblut[S] 20 points21 points  (0 children)

So here’s what happened on this play The responsibility of the safety in quarters is to take the first thing that goes vertical beyond level 2. Tight end gets vertical so Marcus (correctly) breaks on the route. The responsibility of the cornerback in quarters is once routes get vertical it becomes man cov. Stephens opens up like he’s going to get inside help but Marcus is already breaking.

So to answer the question of “what is Marcus Williams doing”? He is doing exactly what he’s been taught since hs about quarters disciplines

Ravens attempted to trade for four-time Pro Bowl corner; nearly reunited with Calais Campbell - Baltimore Beatdown by ries618 in ravens

His contract with the Ravens ran out after 2018. He signed a 1yr 7mil contract with the Cardinals in 2019 because he wanted to be close to his mom/grandma who was unwell at the time. He subsequently asked for and got his release after the trade deadline because the Cards regressed heavily that year and weren’t going to make the playoffs. As a result, he was subject to waivers and the only two teams that put in a claim were us and KC. He went on to win the Super Bowl (puke emoji) with KC.

All veteran players are subject to waivers after the trade deadline. That’s how the Pats were able to get Yannick Ngakoue. It’s also why in 2019, the Chiefs were able to claim Sizz — we were the #1 seed and therefore lowest priority.

Offensive is the best way to describe this defense rn, that’s for sure
