  1. The episodes he directed of Twin Peaks were amazing. His best work and cemented his legacy. Ive teared up rewatching it recently. The episodes he didnt write or direct were directionless. They didnt know what to do with it after awhile. Networks. Im not into his movies asmuch. I hope to catch those in the theater so I can be immersed.
  2. The lazy route analysis seems relevant. As was the importance of a strong running game to take teams out the two safety look. Sadly, some of that reminded me of Sark’s struggles.
  3. If Jayden Daniels lasts beyond three years in Washington, he’ll be the first QB to do that there since Joe Theisman. He was born in 1949. Look at the Browns. The Texans best QB of all-time is a debate between Matt Schaub and Diddy Watson.
  4. I think Sark made the right decision at the time. But Ewers really needed a more lethal run game and better power game to complement his abilities. But, this offense was really average towards the end. A lot of that was the underperforming run game. Arch could have helped defenses be more honest with his deep ball and athleticism. Or, he could have been obliterated like we saw him vs Georgia and Ohio St in limited action. It kind of goes back to the Major/Simms debate. Mack leaned Simms because he could get it to our high powered receiving corps. But in 2001, we landed Cedric Benson. With Major, he could pick apart defenses that were keying in on the run game. Without a good run game, Major was more limited.
  5. Definitely underwhelmed by the WR unit as a whole after a promising start. As for tight end, we need to get one. While Helm and JT Sanders were big bodies and great receivers, they werent a plus in blocking. Can we get a real tight end please? Someone who can put people on their ass and catch the ball?
  6. Theres a non-zero chance Cowboys hire Deion and his son Shadeur holds out for two years and becomes a free agent and/or threatens to hold out to force a trade to the Cowboys.
  7. Dianes character was a beating. The show was great in its own way with Kirstie and Woody. The flaming viking was great.
  8. Theres a massive gap between Markie Post and Madelyn Smith over Bebe Neuwirth. Prime Kirstie Alley would be hard to overlook. https://ew.com/article/1993/05/14/cheers-farewell-sams-ladies/ Then you got Kirk Camerons wife Chelsea Noble. Thats just the named actresses. With that being said, Lilith kept it tight for decades. I understand your perspective.
  9. That 2nd down play was over before it started.
  10. In 2018, he set a record for 308 passes without an interception. His progression from 2017 where he derped to 2018 was impressive. In 2017, he was the leading rusher on the team. 2018 he was surrounded by serious talent, with Humphrey, Johnson, and a young Duvernay. He had 16 rushing TDs and was used as a battering ram. The leading rusher that year was a guy named Tre Watson. In 2019, he went toe to toe against Joe Burrow’s LSU squad. As that season progressed, the offense regressed, I think with Collin Johnson and maybe Ingram. injured. His #2 receiver was Brennan Fucking Eagles. Jake Smith didnt pan out. In 2020 covid year, he had 25 TDs to 5 ints. Bijan got 86 total carries. And his two leading receivers were Joshua Moore (who was ahead of his time with gun celebrations) and Brennan Fucking Eagles. I thought Sam got worn down, was a baller, worked with recruiting misses at receiver, and had to overcome bad defense, which was really bad in 2019.
  11. Counterpoint: Todd Orlando And how did those top recruiting classes pan out?
  12. She did what the role called for. While you may disagree with the choices, Penguin is absolutely a worthy series made better by strong performances - Colin Farrell went home with gold - cripple - yes - obese - yes, yet he was a ruthless mastermind. At the end when she stares death in the face, that sold it for me. The series had a start, had The Penguin escape impossible situations and then tied it up. If Milioti was not worthy, so was Farrell.
  13. That wasn’t the only problem. It was all over the place. Foster was great with what she had to work with. Whats her name from Penguin was robbed
  14. I think in addition to stats, championships and records, a look how QB is comped with their peers is important. It’s not perfect, but it mitigates the stat stuffers and game managers. Who were the great players at their position? Vince Young Colt McCoy Bobby Layne These three were the top QBs in college when they played. All three clearly were the best players on the team and a top tier QB among their peers. Were all americans, won awards and got Heisman votes. Then you get to good QBs. They’d lead good teams or good offenses and were one of the best at their position in conference. Major Ehlinger James Street- Probably your Mt Rushmore Stat Stuffers Chris Simms Quinn Ewers-Can get into top 4 status with two strong performances. Hes just too often a liability or injured. Also, surrounded by talent.
  15. When Bond was healthy and Golden #2 and Helm dominating in Michigan, I thought we had an upgrade over what we saw in 2023 (that would include a limited Whittington). We’re not scaring Ohio St with Golden #1 and a limited run game. Golden is solid and great at exploiting bad corners. But hes not a prime Bond We are seeing a healthish Ewers and you can see the difference, though for fuck sake he needs to throw Wingo and Bond open. ASU twice jumped the post route that was late and high.
  16. Yes, I concur you hold onto that one for another time. You get a 3 and out to start the game. Your objective should be to get the ball back. As a double digit favorite against what should have been a middling defense, im not sure you want to think punt block at all. And hell im playing conservative to avoid fakes after seeing the shit show in SEC game and assume ASU would pull out all the stops. A good time to have that block in is end of half with little time or when they are backed into the end zone or when its beyond 4th and 5. One scenario I worried about before the game was a massive deficit in TOP. I figured that was the only way Skataboo would get off and if they hung around, theyd wear our D out.
