  1. Yeah I totally missed that. But glad they got him...too bad he'll get out with nothing
  2. did they? must have missed it in passing I guess.
  3. I can't tell if this is sarcasm or not, but I'm here for it either way.
  4. I vividly remember the Halloween party I was at this night...the hosts almost turned the game off...I was several beers deep and, well...SURLY about it. Till this play...I knew it was destiny. Also it's amazing what plays we'll always remember...not just from the USC game. But 4th and forever vs Kansas. This play here. I remember vince's first game and a long TD pass while not starting and Chance Mock was.
  5. You want to go back and read what I was actually responding to chief? He was claiming people are acting like Caldwell is the 2nd coming of Vince Young. There are 2 extremes and most of us aren't on either side there...even the ones who think Arch has been mostly mediocre to bad for the most part outside of a few instances and want to just see another QB who can make passes. If it doesn't work fine, at least we'd know. The arch we saw in the 4th is the one we want to see most of the time. Not when they're down 14 to OSU and Florida or down 17 to Miss St. That's all.
  6. I love how not only has Riker himself become a meme, but he, in general, is seen as a bad ass...and Frakes himself leans into it. Some would shy away from all this.
  7. how they didn't resolve this still bothers me. I didn't realize how long it was, being HBO i though 10, maybe 12. I luckily hadn't started watching till after it all aired recently and was so glad I did. Was able to binge it all in a week. So glad there's another season coming. Can't wait.
  8. This is where I'm at. Some guys think if you say "hey arch is struggling bad, maybe bench him for a quarter or the rest of this game and let's see what happens" turns into Arch hate. When no...I just want to win. And yes Arch is much more talented. That doesn't mean he's seeing the field proper or making the right throws. Maybe someone else can for the rest of that game. That's all.
  9. Here's what you continue to not only miss, but also misconstrue. No one, except a few idiots, has come even close to saying anthing this stupid. You completely missing the point that some make about "hey someone might be able to hit those simple fucking passes a little easier than Arch" is absolutely mind boggling. I don't think anyone has realistically said Caldwell IS better than Arch, or thinks Arch is some bum who should never see the field again. We ALL know the game plan sucks, and the OL sucks. HOWEVER what you continue to fail to acknowledge, is that Arch, unti lthe 4th quarter, absolutely was missing easy completions that almost any college level QB could make. Yes even with the OL issues, and yes even with the guy who fucked your Mom Sark calling plays. Does that mean the team will absolutely be better with Caldwell? No, of course not. But can we maybe see a guy who's maybe not going to throw balls in the fucking dirt, or behind/over/in front off a receiver way more often than he doesn't? With you ANYONE who says "hey let's see what caldwell can do" when Arch is playing very poorly, means we think he's better or that it's ALL Arch's fault. That's not the case. WHEN Arch plays poorly it's the ONE thing that can be switched out easily enough just to see. Can't fire the coach or force a change in play caller right now...and it's not like they can put 5 different OL in there either.
  10. I don't want them to rush him back...give him time. If they can't win this game without them, it's not likely they win with a bit of a banged up, if not at least very careful, version of Arch protecting himself as he should.
  11. I'll be honest it was a slow burn all the way till the end and this it was pretty great.
  12. THESE are the ones I really meant. I feel like hitting those at a more reasonable clip will help a ton. Thanks,
  13. I'm not saying Caldwell is anywhere near better than Arch...but I don't think Arch not playing means they lose either.
  14. I agree. All I ever asked was that they at least "THINK" about it, and force some changes.
  15. I've seen quite a few say it's probably a top 3-ish job behind OSU and Texas. Also Georgia in that debate as well. I think it's all fluid and no real concrete answer. if someone said all those jobs are Top 10 can you really argue it that hard?
  16. What a reasonable and non inflammatory post. How dare you.
  17. Then it worked...bring back the Queso!
  18. God I hope not...this board will tear itself apart. Awesome thanks for the write up. But can you answer this simple question...can he hit a wide open player either standing, or in stride, when he has time and isn't pressured? K'thanks I'll hang up and listen.
  19. I'm feeling better about not running Sark nor or after this season each day. With LSU, Florida, Penn St, UCLA, Arkansas, OK St all needing coaches, and potentially OU and Ole Miss(if Kiffin leaves) there's simply not enough quality coaches to fill them. Even Texas would have trouble finding out which is the best candidate. Have we ever seen this many big time openings? Florida/LSU/Penn St at all top 10 jobs, Florida is a Top 5 job, LSU a Top 3 one just behind OSU and Texas...if OU opens up that'll be at least 4 Top 10 jobs open.
  20. Love when companies listen to the complaints and fix shit.
  21. I didn't see the Prevent defense some claim, but I did notice less pressure in the 4th. It may have been they were unable to send the same pressure due to the use of more spread concepts, but they definitely were NOT selling out on blitzing like they were the first 3 quarters. Let's not pretend it was the same exact defensive gameplan from them in the 4th.
  22. Yeah if Dak is healthy and those WR's are playing, they're going to win 7 games at worst. Probably more like 8 or even 9(would take some upsets) and miss the playoffs. Before this past weekend I'd have even entertained trading our own pick if the GB pick wasn't good enough for a proven guy with a long term contract. like if we're piking 17th it's not that big a deal if the GB pick is still like 28-30.
  23. Fucking Riker man... Oh and Worf for a bit too.
