YOLOsubmarine posted:Jamarcus was also hosed up on lean all the time and had no support system at all once he got to the NFL. Maybe it comes out that Zack has a massive cocaine problem but a) he’s still had basically every advantage imaginable and b) cocaine makes players better, cf Michael Irvin, Lawrence Taylor His cocaine problem is that he doesn't do enough of it

He said he understood that, but also believed he could get in, make his money, and get out before it all collapsed. poo poo like this is why I hate it when people claim that only idiots fell for crypto. Pretty much all of American society is engineered to snare people in some scam or another, and that's been especially true since Covid hit and the economy tanked - lots of regular people get caught up in this kind of poo poo. I hope your dad didn't get too burned and that he's doing ok.

Cavauro posted:ok, who wins a game? the team with the most first downs. not the most plays. There's a statistical correlation between teams that hold the ball for 40 minutes or more and teams who win. Therefore, every play that gains more than 2.5 yards is an act of hubris, willingly handing the enemy precious seconds that could have been yours.

Pathetic.

mcmagic posted:The Jets have to see Wilson play and know it's not nearly good enough but they are also terrified of hurting his confidence at all so they are going fool themselves into thinking this kind of play is sustainable and that they can hide him for the rest of the season even though they can't and it's going to fall apart the same way it did last year. Alternately, we're going to get the supreme comedy of the defense dragging Wilson through a deep playoff run as they keep winning in dumber and dumber ways

torgeaux posted:Serious question for Jets' fans: Given the reputation of the turf there, why would an aging man recovering from an injury where bad footing makes it more likely he'll reinjure himself want to rush back? For one, the last few years of his career have been dedicated to proving that you don't need to be particularly smart to be a HOF quarterback. For two, going on about his supposed recovery keeps his name in the headlines and gives him the attention he needs to keep from collapsing into a quivering mess.

Pron on VHS posted:If you compare Davis to other WR2s on AFC contenders he is likely the worst. Zay Flowers, Jaylen Waddle, Rashee Rice, Calvin Ridley, Jerry Jeudy, Mike Williams, Nico Collins are all probably better. I mean, I get what McMagic's trying to say, which is that a lot of those guys don't really fit the bill of the traditional number two receiver who's perfectly serviceable but isn't The Guy. But that's just how it is anymore: If you don't have a second receiving option on par with your first, you don't have an NFL-caliber number two.

pasaluki posted:The Jets especially want to talk because they are completely encircled and captured by Aaron Rodgers. I seriously think the people who are 'talking' are Saleh and defensive players. Yeah, this. There's a really good chance that Saleh has no say over the offense at all, and some combination of Rodgers/Hackett/Douglas is calling all the shots while leaving Saleh to answer for their gently caress-ups. If nothing else, it would help explain all his bizarre non-answers about the QB situation.

Impossibly Perfect Sphere posted:It's hilarious that people can get enchanted like that by a single performance. Some of the worst QBs in the NFL have had small stretches where they played well. It's meaningless noise based on fortunate matchups and luck. That's just how it is when teams have been wandering the QB desert for a while. Give it a few years, and Pats fans will be talking themselves into believing the 2026 equivalent of Bailey Zappe is the future.
