  1. Equally laughable that Lebron could go play tight end. These sports have a Jack-Easterby-before-and-after level of difference.
  2. Let's be very clear about something: Parsons is 6-3" 250, runs a sub-4.4 and has a 35" vertical. Very few humans have existed who are on his level physically. If he stepped onto an NBA court against a team of 6-7"+ skilled defenders, he would get smothered without mercy. He would get a few buckets I think, but wouldn't get close to 20 once, much less on average. Stroud's side here is on point.
  3. In social media, there are very few winners. Most Twitter arguments I see are between two parties who are "losing" regardless of subject matter. Deion is losing big. Should quit while behind.
  4. In my opinion, nothing to dislike about this draft. The good teams are always picking random guys that the 'experts' disagree with, and then later people are like "how did the Patriots get Guy X' or whatever so unconcerned about noise in the blogosphere. I will say this - anyone criticizing the Lassiter pick needs to go check out his film & resume. This guy is a killer, and basically everything beside his 40 time is premium. Modern NFL is a game in need of good nickelback play, and you also need that guy to be able to provide run support.
  5. Bummer, liked them both.
  6. Like what the Texans did, slight improvement over our previous super-corporates but we're not going to wow anyone. Detroits blue helmet is the best new uni piece I've seen. Broncos I like as well, but agree they should just go throwback.
  7. Funny to me that people long for a franchise that defined disappointment and 'choke' with some sense of longing. Loved Earl & Moon, and the uniforms were great, but they choked hard and left town, and continue to define choking & disappointment in their new town. Our franchise value is higher than theirs (just to highlight folly of leaving for a smaller market bc the owner had poor business sense), we've won the division more than them, there are few metrics in which we are not the better team. Let it go. On to the draft.
  8. Yeah, me too. I like them. Good work Texans. Interested to see how they look live but this could've gone much worse 😂 Wish they would've added a white helmet instead but otherwise, all good.
  9. Looks like the ones top left in this pic with Stroud in red are black as opposed to navy blue...
  10. Better than the mocks I saw, still need to see them in full and on someone, I guess. The H-Town ones turned out much better than expected, disaster imminent on those after the leak.
  11. Forgive if it's already been covered but is this reveal going to be streamed or a tweetstorm or what TIA Im actually excited. All leaks had me less than enthusiastic but I think when we see full sets it'll be a lot different than leaked misinfo piecemeal bullshit etc
  12. Even if you were worried about Diggs being a head case or whatever all Buffalo fans are crying about now, check this shit out. If it goes bad, he’s on a 1 year deal with team renewal options. Trade value was right, price is right at $20M, gotta wonder wtf else there is to this story. I know Buffalo has bad cap situation but they just let him walk…
  13. Big year for Meyers is coming. Too many Jake haters in this group, fuck all that. Kid is gonna rake.
  14. Let’s fucking go boys!
  15. Undecided on unis, which I’ve concluded is not good. Usually you want to see and like them right away. I read that there will be 4 different uni sets - not 4 combinations, but 4 totally different looks each with their own combos - so I’ll wait until they reveal to care.
  16. Flacco to the Colts. He will do well for them, fucking sick of that old bitch! But him beating out AR15 for the 1-spot this summer will be good for the lulz.
  17. Titans crazy overpay on Ridley is exactly why you don’t panic just bc your team isn’t out signing people in free agency.
  18. I would be a fan of trading down but just too tempted to try to sign a game breaker at DT or EDGE and after 23 we may not get the chance. Give me Byron Murphy or Lata for 4 years…
  19. No surprise if we sign Hunter Renfrow to a 1 year deal, today.
