  1. And the Pats beat the Bills.
  2. Seriously? A 55 yard FG in the cold weather is no gimmie. They wanted to think about whether to go for it on 4th down or go for the FG.
  3. In addition, Gary is one of the league leaders in % of times being chipped. At one point earlier in the season he was 3rd in the NFL. That's going to affect sacks, pressures, pass block win rate, etc. If you're 3rd in the NFL in % chipped, the league knows you are pretty darned good. Gary is also excellent in run defense and does a great job of setting the edge. Yes, the Pro Bowl is based a lot on reputation, but usually it's earned. 2/3rds of the vote comes from players and coaches, and they know who is good.
  4. Based on what?
  5. i don't think so. His head was up and it appeared that he hit him with his facemask. Targeting has to be the crown of the helmet.
  6. As much as I want ASU to show that they are a mirage and were propped up by their schedule, watching Texas choke this away is just as satisfying. If not more.
  7. According to Adam Schefter, a "source" told him that Alexander had knee surgery: https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/43250547/source-packers-cb-jaire-alexander-undergoes-knee-surgery
  8. Can they afford both Tom and Walker? If push comes to shove, easier to find a good RT than a good LT.
  9. Not really true. They think highly of Myers, especially Love, because of how good he is at making the line calls for blocking. There's a reason that they have consistently been at the top of the league in lowest sack percentage and Myers is a big part of it. That's something that we as fans can't really see. The Monk pick was certainly a hedge against Myers leaving in FA, but also a hedge for their backup centers. Jenkins is getting expensive for a guard, and Tom is a free agent in two years and will get really expensive. With both starting tackles coming up on free agency, they can't afford to pay a guard what they are paying Jenkins and Tom might leave in FA.
  10. MLF today said that knee swelling is the issue with Alexander. Cue the David Bakhtiari consternation. There is also the condition that a team can't cut a player who can't pass a physical due to football-related injury without paying him for the next season. Alexander is due ~$17.5M in cash next year including workout/roster bonuses, and it's unlikely that they'll bring him back at that salary.
  11. So we don't want a coach who is good to develop young talent when we have the youngest team in the league, and we expect him to win big games with the youngest team in the league. Got it.
  12. 21 of the 46 were in the 3rd quarter. But I get it, those teams are so good that they weren't able to put the Packers away...
  13. Because in the 2nd half of those games the Packers scored a combined 46 points. In their house.
  14. One of those was a crap game on a crap field, one of those Love was maybe 70%, one of those they were missing three defensive starters and lost a fourth during the game, two were on the road by a combined total of 5 points, and all but one of those was by less than a TD. All but one of those games had one or two things changed and they could have won them. And I don't think that anyone wants to see the Packers in the playoffs.
  15. Packers kick the FG, don't get called offsides on the missed FG by the Viqueens. That's the difference. If I'm the Packers, I feel good about this and that they can play with anyone, anywhere.
  16. And if they would have kicked the field goal they would be going for the lead here. This is why you take the points when you can get them.
  17. I thought that Minnesota wasn't supposed to be good.
  18. BYU hung 27 on Colorado yesterday before Colorado put their first points on the board. Final score 36-14. Colorado played two teams that were ranked at the time (only one still ranked), and lost both, one at home and the other 36-14. Yeah, it's a bowl game, but all of Colorado's top players (both of Sanders' kids and Hunter) played the whole game. I don't hate Colorado or Deion or Deion's kids. I've seen a number of interviews the last couple of months between Deion and a local sports reporter (who used to be a Denver Broncos cheerleader... she's easy on the eyes) and I can tell that he takes a perspective and tries to impart wisdom well beyond the football field. I respect him for that. What I hate is how for two seasons in a row the media has gone gaga over Colorado after they won four games only to find out in both season that they really weren't that good.
  19. I don't know about others, but I get this every year. It's called an annual performance review, where I get told everything I didn't do perfectly over the last year and why I only got the salary increase that I did.
  20. Much has been made of Devin Williams and Josh Hader faltering in the playoffs, but Burnes in 2023 should be right up there with them.
  21. Unfortunately I can't give an apples-to-apples comparison as I moved to Colorado, and Colorado has the 6th highest auto insurance rates in the nation: https://www.insurancebusinessmag.com/us/guides/the-top-10-most-expensive-states-for-car-insurance-486233.aspx My vehicle insurance went up from ~$600/6-months to $950/6-months. But according to that article, I'm well below average for Colorado. According to their research, a 40-year-old driving a 2022 Toyota Camry with an accident caused is paying $4000/year. I'm a 50-year-old with a 2019 Lincoln Nautilus with an accident and I'm at $2,000/year so I think the accident forgiveness from Progressive is true. The reason vehicle insurance in Colorado is expensive is due to three factors. First, it's a top 5 state for auto thefts because post-2020 Denver decriminalized auto thefts for some reason (what did they think would happen when they did that?). This year they busted two big auto theft rings and thefts are down 30% from last year, so that should help. Also, Colorado is a top-5 state for hail; I park in a garage but they for some reason don't take that into consideration. And third, there is some type of liability limit on vehicle insurance that they don't allow in Colorado, so people can sue and get much more than that from insurers.
  22. Hey, CFP teams can run bad goal line sequences, too.
  23. Top true FR CB Xavier Lucas apparently got poached by Miami for a big bag. Don't even have to be in the portal; NIL collectives are calling agents/family/friends and tampering behind the scenes. Would have been nice to know that before the other younger CBs transferred out looking for playing time.
  24. As expected, Mateer to Oklahoma. Salter to Colorado to play for Sanders. Mendoza hasn't decided yet. Edwards was likely the best available they could get who has any type of in-game experience.
  25. The teams that they're leaving will need to replace them.
