    Bevell is reading this forum!

    This touches on the key to success. Last year we were incredibly efficient on 3rd down - this was due in part to commitment to running on 1st and 2nd down. 3rd and manageable is much better then 3rd and 10. At the game last week I kept saying to my friend that it was amazing we were converting...

    O-Line Woes

    Great discussion! One last point I'd add is I find it extremely frustrating that each guy (maybe except for Britt who we should expect to struggle and grow throughout the year) as shown brilliance at one point in time... the key attributes that seem to be missing are: a) consistency b) unity...

    O-Line Woes

    What is a pirate's favorite place to eat dinner?? Arrrrrrrrby's of course. So I get your point, and as individuals I see the potential, albeit some rose colored glasses help me reach that conclusion. The presnap penalties and holds. Lack of line calls for blitz support, and generally terrible...

    O-Line Woes

    Yes, I agree with that last post HuskerHawk. The tendency to bail out is something the other team can count on, which means he's spending less time in the pocket, less time going through progressions, and so on. He made a great comment on where he expects to be - which closely mirrored Tom...

    O-Line Woes

    It's a luxury 31 other teams would love to have... win a Superb Owl then proceed to go 3-1 in the first quarter of your following season... but with that, I think there are plenty of things to focus on that are gaping holes in our team - for this post, I want to pick on the O-Line a bit. It...

    Arbitrary penalty calls

    I like the premise of the OP. It's really hard to equate intention with stat - but I definitely get the point. He could easily be rewarding Rivers for his great effort - but I hope that there is no bias when making a call like that. A hold is a hold, especially when the hold contributes in the...

    I'm telling you, heat was a factor.

    Wait wait wait... Roland gets credit for the actual air temperature. That is correct it probably was not triple digits. However, the field was in the sun all day, which adds the radiant heat - I bet if you took the temperature on their dark uniforms or skin it would be a hell of a lot hotter...

    I'm telling you, heat was a factor.

    Almost the worst thing that could have happened was to have those quick strike scores in the first half. It really meant that our D could not get the rest they needed. You know it's bad with both Earl and Kam need to come out for IV's. Those are two of the most elite athletes in the NFL and they...

    Morelli's crew working Seahawks game

    Through all the bonehead penalties, inability to get off the field on 3rd down, and being dominated on TOP - we had the ball with a chance to win at the end. On the road, that's all you can ask for - I would say the referees poor performance had little if any effect on the game today.

    Report: AP has been indicted on negligent injury to a child

    The whole leaves in the mouth thing is additionally degrading which is also mentally abusive. What a sorry excuse for a human. I admit to losing my cool in front of my kid, but this stuff with AP is all premeditated bull crap and deserves a punishment through the legal system. The boy doesn't...

    Report: AP has been indicted on negligent injury to a child

    Key word is reasonable - and that is for interpretation. I would say without a doubt - if you injure your kid (or someone else's) it should be considered beyond reasonable. No black eyes, no bruises from clinched fist, no draw blood or scratches, no broken bones, no sprained ligaments... If...

    Report: AP has been indicted on negligent injury to a child

    I will say that I find it extremely odd that it is labeled an indictment - this indicates some pretty serious accusations. I'm definitely not an expert in any way - but I think if it's ordinary parental discipline that may result in the need for an investigation it would first be done by Social...

    Report: AP has been indicted on negligent injury to a child

    If that is the case, then this sounds bad for AP. I'm pretty sure he will get that mandatory 6 game suspension minimum.

    Report: AP has been indicted on negligent injury to a child

    Umm - WTH is going on in the NFL?? AP has had a crazy family history since his entrance into this league. Is this going to be another test for Roger Goodell? Would AP be subject to the domestic violence policy? Source: http://www.myfoxhouston.com/story/26520 ... njury-case Source...

    My money is where my mouth is...

    I don't bet anymore either. Just not worth the stress for the money. But yes, we'd do our own analysis, look for weaknesses and send those picks out with a 1 to 5 star system. A bettor would decide their unit (say $20) - if it was a 5 star, they'd bet ATS to net 5 X $20 (typically -110 for a...

    My money is where my mouth is...

    When I ran my handicapping service I never recommended these bets... a lot has to go right over a long period to win them. That being said, when the emotions are in it, and it's most definitely a top 3 team in this league, that's pretty good scratch coming back. On the flip side, there are...

    This is funny on many levels. Because if you say the Packers are primed for #2 - that's just gross. :)
