Yeah Herbstreit rarely says things that actively annoy me and has a pleasant demeanor. He's great for a bedtime game of no real relevance.

abelwingnut posted:what's wrong with herbstreit? i like him informing me about how x dude performed in college, and he seems to break down plays quickly and well. He's dull as poo poo and has no feel for the NFL game. I feel like whenever Al is about to say something interesting, herbstreit brings the energy of "this player red shirted as a sophomore at Utah state." Honestly he is like Al's Chaperone to make sure he doesn't get too poo poo faced or interesting. I'm a sicko enough that I'd like Al by himself being forced to call a lovely game.

Monday night was fun for no other reason than Peyton's disgust when both games were punting so they couldn't switch between them

Bellmaker posted:The Jets are still somehow in the playoff hunt right? Yep. They get in as a wildcard if this week: they beat the Dolphins, Lions beat Broncos, Cowboys beat Bills, Vikings beat Bengals, Titans beat Texans, Colts beat Steelers and Raiders beat Chargers Week 16: they beat Washington, Chargers maybe beat Bills (Bills can win either this or week 17 vs Pats, winning both eliminates Jets), Browns beat Texans and Chiefs beat Raiders Week 17: they beat Browns, Bills lose to Pats (if they beat Chargers week 16), Chargers beat Broncos and Chiefs beat Bengals Week 18: they beat Pats, Browns beat Bengals, Ravens beat Steelers, Dolphins beat Bills and Broncos beat Raiders https://www.nydailynews.com/2023/12/11/jets-delusional-playoff-dreams-require-a-near-impossible-path-to-come-true/ It's not the only way they can get in, but TL;DR they have at least 8 teams ahead of them in the race for one of the two spots, and they need a lot more than just themselves winning out to happen

The jets wildin out with Wilson and winning out but missing out on the playoffs is the best case scenario for them because someone will trade for Wilson at that point for next season.

It was pretty easy to get the jets in. I picked them to win out, then picked the games just as I saw them. After that I just had to flip one browns win to a loss and boom, they're in. https://www.espn.com/nfl/playoffs/m...2~2~401547653~2  Denver could also win out and very easily be the #1 seed in the AFC.

If you are the Steelers or the Bucs or whoever:
If i’m the Bucs I’m pretty okay sending a 2nd+3rd+late rounder.

The best case scenario for the rest of us is the Wilson wilding out and making the playoffs, Rodgers coming back and looking like poo poo and getting benched for Wilson.

I really enjoyed the Manning mini-Red Zone, but it did highlight the amount of effort going in to all the timely jumps between games Red Zone pulls off every week. Scott and his crew do such a good job giving us 7 hours of commercial free football.

If Goff is garbage in the cold, does that mean the opposite is true and Goff would have a perfect game in the Brazil summer?

If I'm reading it correctly the Mean daily maximum °C (°F) is the average warmest it feels every day. I'm trying to find resources online, but it appears somewhere around 90 degrees Farenheit approaches danger levels. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6365067/ I found this article about the treatment of heatstroke. It doesn't go into too much detail about what the threshold is, but146 football players have suffered heat related deaths. Also the games might work if the weather cooperates, but a heat wave would throw a wrench into the plans. https://apnews.com/article/brazil-heat-wave-climate-environment-wildfires-1e4714fb2c6566120c13cf4e2b657f7d Anderson Koopa fucked around with this message at 20:27 on Dec 13, 2023 |

It's 77 in Rio as I type, the average high in September is 78 (in Miami it's 89). Yes a 110 degree heat wave would be very bad but it'll probably be fine.
