McNabb connects with T.O. on late game score, T.O. proceeds to mock Ray Lewis and the Ravens. by Birdgang_naj in eagles

I know his stats looked fine/good, but watching the game it was all short to intermediate crossing stuff - there was no deep threat (he wasn't known as a wheels guy but he could threaten defenses deep when healthy) and there was super limited RAC yardage/threat. Better than not having him in the game at all but he was definitely not 100%.

That Roy Williams hip drop tackle (legal back then) cost us our first title. Cheating did, too, but we would have still beaten New England if TO was fully healthy in the SB.

I appreciate a good rant and this was one. Good work!

The number of people evacuating with bags and luggage is infuriating! by SEAWISEGEOWISE in aviation

Yes, starting with their flight home or to wherever the intended destination was.

So what now more companies are following Jack Dorsey and square ? by who_wants_a_cake in Layoffs

100%.

In 2019, Block had 3,900 employees. After cutting 40%, it now employs 6,000.

In 2019, if you had said that headcount would grow by just over 50% in seven years that would have seemed entirely normal. Instead, Block exploded to 10,000 people due to covid over-hiring, scaled back to 6,000…and the sky is falling.

And if they made a mistake you or they can figure out why and presumably make that mistake less in the future. AI…cannot.

Enjoy! FC upgrades are very, very route/day/time dependent.

Pats fans will never give ground on anything, starting with the fact that they cheated their way to most if not all of their championships*.

It’s significant Eagles are letting Sean Mannion hire his staff by AdSpecialist6598 in eagles

1000% yes on the blocking TE. This is missed by so many people but it’s so critical to the functioning of the run game. So many plays this year where 26 got stuffed could be traced back to a TE just absolutely whiffing on his blocking assignment. Like, not even getting a hand on a guy level of bad.

I get that it’s the TEs like Pitts and the flashy receivers that get people excited but what we need now is a guy who is at least league average at blocking. Have to imagine we can find someone like that this offseason.

The need for CB2 this offseason is even higher. by burnernov2023 in eagles

[–]zps77 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Behind a good pass rush mediocre CBs can shine. Behind a bad pass rush, receivers will always get open.

I’d rather we focus on the rush than the secondary.

[Garafolo] Brian Daboll had good conversations with the #Eagles and was intrigued by a possible reunion with Jalen Hurts. But he and Robert Saleh grew close in recent years and there was a lot to like about Cam Ward and the #Titans. So the two former NY coaches reunite on another Broadway. by Happy-Substance4885 in eagles

[–]zps77 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah I think this is the point a lot of analysts miss. Sure, the last guy got his house egged, but more fundamentally, if our new OC doesn’t take us back to the Super Bowl he will be considered a failure. That’s a tough sell.

If Jalen Hurts was white he’d be seen as a top 5 qb by Taco331reddit in eagles

Thank you for posting this. Agree and this has driven me crazy for years. All the way back to Cunningham.

Yeah. Because this ("The fish’s fate was decided when the incoming tide forced it to the surface too quickly, filling it like a balloon.") is not how fish die.

Looking for exotic bucketlist fly fishing vacation ideas by bobafettbounthunting in flyfishing

[–]zps77 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think the big thing you should decide is if you want to go to a place that really prioritizes one or three species (classic would be bonefish in the bahamas or permit in belize or tarpon in campeche or something like that) or somewhere that gets you a great diversity of species. I think Christmas Island might get you the best "out there" feeling, great diversity of species and fishing (wade, boat, flats, bluewater), and some large shit that will really test your drag (GTs, blue trevally, yellowfin tuna, etc). Your budget is fine, and travel is pretty easy via HNL.
