  1. I sort of agree with this, but there’s a lot of risk in considering that. I’m sure RB would’ve retired Checo every time he made the slightest contact with Lewis in 2021 if the outcome was taken into account.
  2. This. It’s insane to me how many people keep throwing out FPI and ESPN efficiency stats as if they mean anything. Especially when metrics like FEI and S&P+ exist.
  3. You’re talking about the same Cincinnati team that lost to Miami of Ohio and starts a QB who can’t throw, right?
  4. Saying this months after 4 TEs went in the first 42 picks is certainly a take that belongs in this thread.
  5. I like you as a poster, but this is such a horrible take. Kansas isn’t all that good, and they’re definitely worse than Oklahoma. Oklahoma is top 10 in basically any team efficiency metric you look at. Kansas isn’t even top 50. And we’re a 19 point favorite over Kansas this week and the money line has us at over -1,000. That should put our implied win probability above 90%. This is not going to be the toughest matchup we have all year.
  6. I love this defense. They’re so fast and physical, and we finally have a pass rush this year. PK and co. have done an incredible job teaching and developing.
  7. Hahahaha Tech spent all offseason talking about Texas, and now they won’t even be bowl eligible by the time they play us. Get fucked, losers!
  8. Checo struggled to out-qualify and outperform Stroll when they were on the same team. He’s fine as a midfield driver who can make his tires last, but he really has no business in a top car.
  9. Look, you can deny that you propositioned EJ in an Applebees on that fateful night all you want, but Surly will always know what really happened.
  10. I agree with this sentiment, but I also don’t blame Aranda one bit for that choice. Baylor pays their coaches stupid amounts of money. I promise you he’s making a good bit more than Sark per year. Not a bad way to find out you can’t cut it as a HC.
  11. So you’re saying it’s a tight battle for who should start this week?
  12. Trying to reduce the number of possessions when you’re the more talented team in every game left on your schedule is a very stupid strategy.
  13. I agree with all this, but I think Lance Stroll will have at least two more years of runway, unless he decides to quit before then. AM is still a small team with bad facilities right now. They won’t see the effects of a lot of their investment and the Honda deal until 2026 when the new regs hit. If Lance is still struggling by the End of the 25 season, I think that’s where his dad will have to make a tough decision.
  14. All as it should be. Mick is quick, but binning cars gets expensive. I don’t think Mick is even quick. He looked good compared to Mazepin, but he was consistently beat by KMag who’s now consistently getting beaten by Hulk. Mick would be bottom 5 in pace even if he didn’t have the crashing issues.
  15. I laughed so hard at Russell going off. I have no idea how he managed that on relatively new mediums at that turn. I think he freaked out because he knew Lewis was faster behind him. George has always struggled in close racing, but this was next level.
  16. Well, the Renault engine might be slow, but it sure does break a lot!
  17. I bet Baylor wishes they had played Prairie View instead of Texas State.
  18. We actually have depth on defense this year and have been rotating guys a ton during the game, so our defense is looking way fresher late in the game.
  19. Our front 7 has played well today and they’ve been great all season. We have our third string D in in this drive.
