  1. His nuts were out on that one boys.
  2. Stop quoting Stassney. He has owned that he is trolling this thread already. That throw to Wingo was a fucking dart. Quinn has plenty of throws on the bad side of the ledger, but that was a truly great one.
  3. Just sort of fell apart as soon as we got to the edge of Burt's FG range. We've seen that movie before.
  4. Good set of throws so far. Quinn clearly has more confidence than I do.
  5. Tie game with 5 mins left and we're about to get the ball back with zero momentum. Wish I had some level of confidence, but I can't seem to find any. No matter the outcome, this drive will go a long way towards cementing the narrative of his career.
  6. Made a play when we needed it. Good work kid.
  7. Terrific dime to Golden in a have to have it situation.
  8. Another game, another atrocious third quarter. Sark needs to look in the fucking mirror on this one, as it's on his shoulders to fix.
  9. Why? Does me getting behind him change anything at all about how he's going to play? Positivity for positivity's sake is such a bad look. Just be direct about shit, good or bad.
  10. Outside of the first drive, the whole Offense has looked liked hammered shit. Quinn has played the same as he has all year long, though the pass he missed to a wide open Moore is not one that he typically misses. The performance only further validates that he's fine to good, but not the kind of player that elevates our offense. There were two over the top plays to be had in that half, and he made neither.
  11. I bought a GTS secondary and the guy offered me a CYPB for $400. That was an easy pass for me. But I mean, yeah. If others are willing to pay that much then it's a good play I suppose.

    There is some connective tissue with Inquisition, but it's basically a whole new cast of characters that you play with. I honestly don't even remember the fighting system used in Inquisition because of how long ago I played it. I'm sure it's been modified at a bare minimum.
  13. Total meltdown.
  14. Our inability to put these guys away looks like it's going to come back to bite us.
  15. No meat pulled at 110 has risen to 128 while “resting”. Carry over cooking doesn’t work that way. And yeah, let people cook their shit however they want. There is no universally correct way to cook anything.

    I've played through Veilguard twice now (to see what happens on the other side of major story decisions) and really enjoyed it. While it didn't quite break new ground, I thought it was very well done. Tons of side quests and really good character development across all of your companions. The combat gets repetitive after a certain point, but upping the difficulty on the 2nd play through definitely made things more interesting. It's for sure worth picking up for any RPG fan. You're looking at ~50 hours worth of story for each campaign.
  17. Except we had a team record 11 guys drafted last year. And we’ll have several more taken this year. Please stop acting like Quinn’s supporting cast isn’t a critical ingredient of the success we’ve had during his run as QB1. He’s benefited from a significant increase in our talent floor combined with a consistent coaching staff and offensive scheme. A guy like Ehlinger never had any of that. Quinn has plenty of skins on the wall, but he sure as shit didn’t hang them up all by himself.
  18. Except it’s actually not astonishing. Astonishing would be doing this somewhere like Tulsa or Tulane. What’s also astonishing is how badly we hired guys like Strong and Herman that were unable to build a winner with the level of resources available at Texas. I am not shitting on Sark, btw. He’s done very well and has gotten way more right than wrong. He’s also benefited from a sea change in the talent acquisition process (i.e., NIL + Transfer Portal) that has tilted the scales heavily in his favor. To his credit, he’s taken advantage of those changes far better than others (eg., Dabo). I have come to like Sark and I’m glad we have him. That said, Texas should be a very easy place to win at, even if others have inexplicably failed to do so.
  19. Why? There was zero smoke that he was breaking our way after his visit.
  20. Sounds like you already made a call here, but I will put in a plug for Flat Track coffee. Their single origin selection is always strong and they are very adept roasters.
  21. Weather conditions for this Everton match are fucking brutal.
  22. It’s a fair point and valid question. I don’t know the answer. As fans, we can only react to the outputs because we have zero visibility to the inputs. What is irrefutable is the 2nd half drop off in production. And there have been some seriously questionable play calls in high leverage situations that make me believe that another coach with serious play calling chops would do more good than bad.
  23. Maybe a 2nd voice in the headset to offer a different opinion sharpens the decision making? Crazy concept, I know.
  24. Again with the false narrative. It's a team sport, and the outcome of a game is rarely decided by the performance of a single player. It just so happens that QB is the most important position in the game, but it's not everything. It's entirely possible that Quinn could even play GREAT and we lose because our Defense falters, our ST lets us down, or the other team just plays even better. And if that happens, you can count on me to come own it and give Quinn his due. No different than I have multiple times in this same thread. Just like it's also possible he could continue to play fine and we could win out. I'd much prefer that scenario, for the record. You really want to hang me with the "Quinn hater" tag, but there is no evidence for that. I have been vocal that I think he is good, but generally not good enough to be a difference maker at the position. I think tonight was validation of just that.
