What teams would you consider on a short timer for success right now. e.g teams that have an ageing cast of vets that are going to cripple them when they leave in a couple of years as they go into a rebuilding phase

New England might not be, but I've always been under the impression that Belichick would retire when Brady does.

Louis Riddick on espn talking about Joe Mixon: "...I really want to get inside his mind and take me back to that incident and tell me exactly all the particulars to try to understand what his thought process was leading up to that event, immediately following that event because I tell you what, I have a hard time grasping that incident based off what the video shows."

TheChirurgeon posted:You could basically just go off QB age at this point: Also, here are my rankings for "how hosed is this team if its QB retires right now" (1 is 'most hosed'): 1. Giants 2. Chargers* 3. Saints ... a wide gulf 4. Steelers ... a second, wider gulf 5. Patriots that said, I would pay good money to watch the Giants try to play a season with Nassib under center *Note: The Giants have a more talented roster than the Chargers, but if the Chargers lost Rivers they'd just be rebuilding, which they're already kind of doing anyways. The Giants are still built around Eli and would have more work to do, in my opinion. Plus, struggling in Los Angeles where no one gives a gently caress is harder than struggling in New York.

The Chargers are pretty boned anyway because of their inability to evaluate o-line talent for like, a decade now.

warcrimes posted:He also led the league in completion percentage, I think. Or downfield completion percentage. Not a HoF stat by any means but I've been saying he's a good QB in poo poo circumstances for a couple of years now. Imagine if the Vikes get an o-line worth a poo poo and/or find a running game. You guys are gonna be so jelly over my Hong Kong Combat Orcas tat

Nope, that's Altuve covering first before the ball goes wide and into right field He may actually be the only player involved in that play who's still on the team

Should only be two (throw to first, throw home). The Three Stooges bit at the beginning didn't necessarily prevent any outs from occurring since it was a ground ball.

Sad we couldn't make a trade work, but this will ultimately be better for our cap situation if he's designated a June 1 cut. Godspeed, Tony https://twitter.com/jonmachota/status/839552309248069634

I was out getting lunch before and they had a TV on that showed that the Redskins GM and Cousins might leave? Man this would be so great if true. I've been so worried that guy would win them Superbowls and if him and Cousins leave?? Then they're back to the drawing board!! HA HA HA I just wish it happened before this year so we'd beat them at home and not have that which in my opinion is the worst loss in Ravens history.
