  1. Love just needs to take care of the ball. It looks as though we will be able to run. It's too good of an opponent for any of the sloppy picks that have become routine.
  2. It's the 2nd quarter, 7-3. I think this will be a very good game.
  3. If Nixon ever turned around that isn't caught. I actually thought he was covering it well and felt like I was watching in slow motion waiting for him to make a play.
  4. We're such a dumb team sometimes
  5. Their pass protection isn't good
  6. Walker stinks. They are better up front with Wilson.
  7. I don't think it closed that fast. It was open in 2019 and 2020, they just didn't win. It was certainly open in 2022, and arguably 2023 without injuries. I think 2024, meaning last year, was the first time I thought it was clear they had no chance. So that's about a 5-year window. That loss to the Raptors in the ECF is really the one they let get away.
  8. The thing about the NBA is there is not real a difference between the dark years and being the 6th seed. You have absolutely no chance in either spot. It is the least random of the major 3 sports by a wide margin. But they're done. The wheels are off this bus. I hope Giannis is able to latch on somewhere and win again.
  9. Bigby, haha. He was such an item for like, a month. Then he was like the most hated guy on the team.
  10. Major difference though is that the Packers were not expected to win any of those 90s games. You can make a case for the 1995 NFFCG but even then the Packers were not favored by any stretch. '16 and '23 Cowboys were supposed to be on championship runs. In '14 they were pretty evenly matched, I'm sure the Packers were favored though. But all 3 games were a chance for the Cowboys to turn a real corner again and they couldn't. The Dez game still bugs me for all the people who act like the game was over if they rule his catch a catch...The Packers get the ball back, down 2, with like 3.5 minutes left. Or just stop the Packers and get the ball back, which they also failed to do.
  11. Yeah no. Lol. Come on. They played in the World Series 4 times since 2017. Truthfully the Brewers are an incredibly well-run organization, but I would kill to see them play in the World Series one single time.
  12. Multiple times honestly. 2014, 2016, 2023 were all crushing defeats for that franchise that robbed them of what could have been critical turning points.
  13. I was pulling for the Yankees but at least now those few posters around here will stop pretending the Dodgers have struggled in the postseason as much as the Brewers.
  14. The Cowboys are doomed until at least Jerry is gone. I'm indifferent about them, but they need a real GM and they won't have one as long as Jerry has to be directly responsible for winning their next championship. The Herschel Walker trade set him up to think he is a genius at management and he has never relinquished control since then.
  15. That's the world superstars live in though. Most of them would do the same things he did. Everything is about what's convenient for them at the present moment. It's their universe.
  16. I could not care less about chasing a 1 seed or a division title. They have done nothing but disappoint out of those top seeds for years. As of today, I think DET is the best in the NFC. I think the Packers have played one complete game, against Arizona, but I think their best football is ahead of them. If they keep taking the ball away and Jacobs continues being a beast, they will be well positioned for a run.
  17. I think this is closer than people might think. He is going to ask out of this.
  18. I agree 97%, but I doubt that nobody wants to coach the Bucks. It's an NBA gig with Giannis. Plenty of guys would take it. There aren't that many jobs.
  19. Ehhh. They wouldn't be any better with Holiday though. Dame was a risk they had to take. Holiday's limitations offensively are very real, and that is what the Bucks needed, a reliable second scorer. Those limitations are also masked in Boston because the roster is just better. That he isn't playing so great alongside Giannis wasn't predictable. They were definitely not going anywhere running it back again. So while it looks like the door is shut, I think it was a shakeup they had to try. Certainly not even close to trading Ray Allen away.
  20. Every year there is a hot start team that fades because they aren't really that good. I think it's them. Got lucky to play GB when they did with Love being rusty, win against SF doesn't look that impressive anymore. They did pound the Texans but the other two wins are the Jets and Giants. I believe they are a worse team than DET and GB, Chicago isn't out of the realm but I won't say that with certainty. So say they finish 3rd in the divison, it would just mean they finish behind the Eagles and any other team. There is so much left to go that nothing would surprise me, not even finishing under .500.
  21. I bet the Vikings miss the playoffs.
  22. I don't understand why the concept of raised expectations is seen as some negative awful thing. Purgatory doesn't mean sucking. The last two years of results have quite literally been the Kohl years, except way worse because the Bucks have one of the best players in the world and have been eliminated in the first round of the playoffs. They won more regular season games I guess, which frankly in the NBA is a big old yawn. It has nothing to do with forgetting. Injuries are only part of the excuse too, and not really something you can point to when the best players are old and oft-injured. I am as happy as anyone they brought a championship to Milwaukee but the feeling of stagnation around the Bucks is completely realistic and valid. I'm not even criticizing the team because the cap hell they're in was necessary to win and I would make the same deal 100/100 times. But it is just the reality of where they are now. They are in that bucket of teams that yes, will probably win 50 games, but everyone kinda knows they aren't going to be there in the end. If I were the Bucks I would seriously consider something drastic like sitting the star players every few games on a rotation or VERY light minute count. Anything possible to get the main 4 guys available in the playoffs.
  23. % isn't the only story here though. Look at 50 yard attempts. That's a huge factor in %. The % would be a lot more noticeable if they were still making the same choices on attempts, but they aren't.
  24. I think the Packers would still be using Anders if he had missed one PAT. His FGs weren't great but they were acceptable for a first-year kicker. But when you have 6 missed PATs, 7/13 from 40+, end the season on a playoff miss, then miss a gimmie in the preseason...you're not very good at anything. That's what did him in; he was a rollercoaster experience. If you are automatic from short and mid distance but weak in the leg, you can still get a job, or sacrifice some accuracy for power, but Anders wasn't giving you reliability in either way.
