For twelve years, you have been asking: Who is John Galt? This is John Galt speaking. I am the man who loves his life. I am the man who does not sacrifice his love or his values. I am the man who has deprived you of victims and thus has destroyed your world, and if you wish to know why you are peris

Seeing Rams fans have any self esteem is... disconcerting.

That game could easily go either way. Right after the Eagles get exposed by a mediocre Seattle team is honestly the best situation they could hope for, and if they play well they can win. Definitely won't be easy though.

I didn't watch the Seattle-Eagles game on Sunday, but based on the Box Score I assume the difference-maker was Seattle was able to pressure Wentz and force an INT and 2 Fumbles to keep the Eagles from scoring. The Rams aren't quite on Seattles level defensively, but Ogletree is supposed to play and Aaron Donald is Aaron Donald so hopefully they can do some of the same stuff to keep it from being a complete shootout.

In the first half, Wentz fumbled on the 1 yd line going in. The ball went into and through the end zone for a touchback. Had the eagles scored, things would have been much different.

The first int didn't do much because I think seattle just have it right back. The second int was a desperation throw to the end zone late in the game which wouldn't have been necessary if not for the fumble.

Brainstorm idea for improving NFL ratings: before the game, starting team must participate in question and answer, evening wear, talent, and swimsuit competition. The winning team begins the game with seven points.

There was also this response from Neil Degrasse Tyson after Pete Carroll said he was waiting to hear from him regarding the lateral play.

I mean, it was already clear that he tried to lateral it. But he didn’t.

I'm still willing to ignore the half yard or so, because it was a cool lateral play

I like how the side shot makes it look like a lateral, while the overhead shows it clearly isn't. Perspectives!

Absolutely. I'm steeling myself for the letdown. At least the game isn't an early start anymore. So glad we don't have to face Campbell 2x per season anymore.

A win @Jax makes the game vs the Rams essentially a playoff for the division. Seattle ends with @Dal vs Ari, Rams with @Ten vs SF, which will probably be two wins for each.

Incidentally, as much as the Seattle O line being garbage has turned into a meme, their pass blocking has been better than league average since trading for Duane Brown. The Eagles have a terrifying D line and Russ moved the ball just fine. Could be a hopeful sign with two more brutal D lines in the next two weeks.

Yeah, QB pressures have gone down significantly since acquiring Brown.

Also, their cut blocks are actually working instead of being a joke.

I'm annoyed that Elliot finally took his L only so that he could come back for the Cowboys in time to play us, I'm desperately hoping they lose and eliminate themselves so they'll lose the motivation of fighting for a playoff spot

e: Man I still can't loving believe we lost to Washington, what a shameful loving game that was and if we miss the playoffs because of it I'm gonna be salty

Duane Brown is the best trade Seattle has made in several years. Acquiring him has given Wilson enough time to at least try and stand in the pocket for a second, instead of getting instantly plastered.

Yeah, it's kind of bonkers how much the entire offense has improved from adding Brown. Especially considering the offensive line still has a bunch of awful players.

They drafted pretty well this year and if they do it again and the coaching starts to stick and Garoppolo is our QB of the future and/or if we get Kirk Cousins or draft a great QB, and don't lose massive amounts of our defense to injury again, and if we keep Hyde and otherwise no other disasters happen, then yeah SF could totally be reasonably not terrible next year!

He definitely picked the wrong side in the Harbaugh/Baalke slapfight, but he's locked out of meddling for at least another two or three seasons, and he's surprisingly close to being an actual human being, for a trust fund tech bro. I'm okay with Jed for now.
