  1. Judge not another man's man-crush(es). 😂 Hopper just gives me too many Owen Burke vibes. So I'm waiting to see him play before I try to expect too much.
  2. December looks rough... We have a "home" game in Chicago but then the 49ers (can be break Shanahan's spell?), a short week to play the Dolphins, then another Thursday game at Detroit, and wrapping up at Seattle.
  3. There are more SBs won by 30+ year old QBs than 21-25 year old QBs... Most often the mental part of the game just isn't there for them and that takes time to develop. The Lions keeping Goff isn't a bad decision. I'd wager Goff will outplay most if not all the rookie QBs picked this year. But keeping him at that $$ is crazy. Maybe this is their "shot" at a SB by keeping the continuity of the team, but you hamstrung yourself pretty heavily for the future. But the premise that QBs on their rookie contract is the easiest way to win a SB is wrong. Few QBs on their rookie deal win a SB. Most that do are in their 4th or 5th year of the contract. I think Brady and Mahomes are pretty much the lone exceptions to that since 2000. And more 1st round QBs are busts than hits. The trick is knowing which QBs have gone past their peak (26-32) and really can't lead you to the SB anymore. It was at that point I switched from holding onto Rodgers to trading him. The Vikings were smart (or lucky?) to move on from Cousins. Cousins could win one with the right supporting staff, but that supporting staff isn't in MN right now. Goff reminds me of a younger Cousins a bit. Not the elite, but the very good. He will win you a few games and keep you in others, but isn't the Mahomes, Brady, Rodgers, etc... level.
  4. Lauer wasn't bad...until he lost his control. He just didn't have the stuff to lose pitches over the middle or give up walks. Gasser is very similar in those aspects.
  5. Oooo... 8 straight wins over the Cardinals.... NICE!
  6. White knuckling that one, but a win is a win!
  7. Are you trying to curry people's favor?
  8. In game threads normally get a bit more leash, but seriously... knock it off.
  9. Enough with the name calling and insults. Back to the game.
  10. People were saying the ABs up to the last 4 games that he looked good.
  11. Hanging curves typically don't break. It was right down the middle, but it broke to that location. Chourio must've been looking fastball and was fooled
  12. I'm sorry Chourio... we can't make the right decisions to develop you. We simply paid too much. Surely, he is going to get more opportunities than just about anyone else on the team, but that doesn't mean they can't have him get a bit more playing time at AAA this year if that is what he needs. Now, I've not seen many games this week to see how he looks, but Chourio is our long term success. We need to do what is best to get him there without sinking the ship this year.
  13. Chourio's salary shouldn't dictate what they do with him. If going to AAA to get some ABs and not drag the team offense down, then so be it. The MLB is in win mode.
  14. Everything you said is true for the long-term outlook. The question was why one was playing a lot now and the other not so much... What they are doing at the moment is what is meriting the playing time.
  15. Possibly because Chourio is hitting 221/265/345/610 this year and 206/250/309/559 over the last month? He probably does need to go down for a while to get back on track. Meanwhile, Bauers is hitting 108+ on the year and 260/327/540/867 over the last month. Not sure why people are so down on him? He minimized his leg kick and seems to be on fire since.
  16. More than Edey and far more coordinated. I don't think Edey could play above the FT line at all for defense and he would clog the lane on offense. 30 years ago, he'd probably be the top pick overall... not anymore. He reminds me of Cockburn a couple of years ago.
  17. I was thinking the same thing. Ironically, they both look very similar... short, skinny, and dark hair.
  18. I can't see Zach Edey being much of an NBA player. He just isn't all that coordinated or athletic.
  19. Then use it for "laughing"... I do.
  20. Brock did (after great confusion) agree to rename the "😂" icon for responding to a post "WHOA SOLVDD" as a tip of the hat to some of the classics BF forum threads!
  21. Personally, I doubt teams have it broken down as a "#1 to #999" type board. Probably for the top 10-15. Then I'd guess they group players into bunches. By the time you get to 91, I'd suspect there are groups of 20 players that are evenly rated. I don't have anything to base that on except the belief that you can't accurately differentiate (in reality) the difference between player #91 from #92. Deguara was a good example of this. We drafted him in the 3rd round when people felt he was more a 4th or 5th round pick. But in reality, he is more of a decent UFDA and nothing more.
