Play posted:Hard Knocks wasn't available last night on my Xfinity stream (couldn't find it at least) but I'm hoping it's there in HBO Go when I get home tonight. Anyone watch it like that or am I gonna have to break out the torrent machine? It was probably on hbogo as it was airing live. Sometimes HBO even gets it a couple of minutes early.

I can't believe the Bears still haven't signed Roquan Smith, I'm really starting to doubt this Bears team again which is probably a good ideaThe Dave posted:It was probably on hbogo as it was airing live.

zimbomonkey posted:I have no idea what this means or why it's funny quote:The Chicago Bears selected Benson as the fourth overall pick in the 2005 NFL Draft, making him the highest drafted Bears player since Dan Hampton in 1979. The Bears’ organization and Benson could not come to terms on a contract, causing him to miss the entire Bears' training camp. After a 36-day hold-out, Benson signed a five-year contract worth $35 million. The Bears wished to make Benson their feature running back, but his lengthy contract impasse had caused him to miss a significant portion of practice. Benson was a bust and was cut after three seasons. He went on to have an OK career with the Bengals.

Keep in mind the team hated him, liked thomas jones more, and so during practice the Defense was just tee'ing off on him, late hitting him, spitting on him in piles etc

It owns that his jersey was like the fifth or sixh most popular one I had anecdotally seen at Bills games. It owns that real people decided that the ugly oafish racist lineman was the guy they wanted to rep.

It was a really dumb assumption that people from Memphis wanted to host someone else's football team for a year and should be happy about it. It gets even worse after you realize that people from Nashville would try to push Memphis out of the state if they could. They hate Memphis. Also, it goes without saying on a yahoo article about the NFL, but you should 100% avoid the comments.

This year will have enough improvement and flashes to get people excited but finish last, next year they might sneak into 2nd in division , then return to earth as everything gets figured out Basically the bears are gonna be the early 00s browns

Like they have told him he wouldn't lose money, they didn't take Travathan's money last year, why not just put it in writing? So dumb.

I thought statistically it was basically moot? I mean, obviously if things go perfect you'd prefer to have the ball after half so you can do the "double up" move where you score right before halftime, get the ball back and score again right away, but if you're a lovely team that has a hard time scoring, it doesn't matter.

Diva Cupcake posted:I'm going to need some actual data here rather than Belichick Does It. I get that coaches may think having the possibility of two straight possessions is valuable from a momentum standpoint, but "momentum" may not actually exist. "Momentum" definitely exists but I don't think this has much to do with it, it's much more about explosive plays on offense and defense and how that can effect the game. As for whether receiving or kicking is better at the start of the game, I also doubt that it makes much difference unless it ends up with you getting extra possessions because of it. The announcers always slobber over deferring ("He trusts his defense  ) but does choosing to receive then mean that you trust your offense? It's really not about that at all.To me, if my team was really good at starting fast and getting points I'd receive. If, like most of the teams in the league, it usually takes them a while into the game to get going I would defer.

Its not "momentum," its the other team not getting the ball back. Thats loving huge. Being able to score, then getting possession right back without the other team involved is kind of a big deal

Being able to score, then getting possession right back without the other team involved is kind of a big deal I think it depends on the strengths of your team. A team like the 2011 Packers would be better off receiving every time whereas a 2003 Bucs team would be better off deferring.
