  1. Fuck I'm distracted as fuck today. Sorry for three replies. Here's the reason for the difference: FTN's stat is Air Yds/Attempt: Total receiving yards intended, including both complete and incomplete pass targets. What I was quoting were Air Yds/Completion. It doesn't make a shit of a difference, I guess, since the conclusion is the same.
  2. Here's a site with the same stats I had: https://www.pro-football-reference.com/years/2024/passing_advanced.htm
  3. I can’t get those numbers to come up for me on that site, but, sure, let’s go with that. I don’t think it changes the overall conclusion that the vast majority of passes completed are in the air for under 10 yards from LOS.
  4. That stat isn't currently tracked. Or maybe PFF+ tracks it, but I don't pay for PFF+. Tua had an average Air Yds/Comp of 4.1, so it's fair to say the vast majority were completions under 20 yards. Tua was the lowest in the league. For comparison, Anthony Richardson had the highest Air Yds/Comp at 8.2. League average was 5.6 Air Yds/Comp. That doesn't necessarily reflect the offensive passing scheme, but could also reflect check-down tendencies of league QBs. Since league average is 5.6, it's safe to say most teams are throwing completions under 10 yards. By the way, Tua threw it away only 6 times last year. Normally I'd say that's a check-down tendency, but Miami's offense is geared around quick completions in space. Their receivers run a lot of slants, hitches, and outside crossing routes, and they send both RB out into the flats a lot. That rail route that scored two TDs Ewers-to-Blue against tOSU? They run a variation of that route out of the majority of their split-back packages. It's a modified out-route or rail route depending on what the outside WR/TE does.
  5. Pressure washer will tear apart natural/knobby cedar or similar.
  6. Like knobby cedar or dimensional lumber? If dimensional lumber, pressure wash, wire brush, 60-grit sandpaper on an orbital sander. If knobby cedar or similar, wire brush. Man, what a shame about VY, but the writing was on the wall when he threw his shoulder pads into the stands. If not earlier.
  7. Honestly...I want one. Not sure what I would do with it. Probably stupid stuff.
  8. The "lawyer guy." Fucking L O fucking L. Who the fuck are you? I said "like" which is not the same as "someone here said that." I've said it before and I don't know why the fuck I'm saying it again, probably because I've had a shitty week so I'm doing the total loser thing and fighting with some narrative-pushing narcissist/manic depressive on the Internet who is entirely trolling because he just wants to fight without repercussions to channel his life frustrations at something/anything, but there are legitimately times when you have valuable insight and post meaningful things, and then there's the majority of times when you completely ignore important words that change the entire meaning of a post so you can push your bullshit narrative, while in the same thread page claim you didn't do something while turning around and doing that thing; case-in-point "FACT: Ewers was one of the worst offensive players on the team last season"--worse than Cole Lourd? Joe Tatum? Velton Gardner? Reid Watkins? All of the walk-ons? All of the third- and fourth-teamers? 2nd-team All-SEC QB was worse than them? It's bullshit like this that makes me skip past your posts without looking at the content. Did he live up to expectations? No. Does that mean maybe he wasn't as good as the hype and whatnot? Yes. How many of 'me and my people' on this thread have admitted that? All of them? And yet here you are accusing others of hyperbole and being overemotional when you take 9/10 of the posts out of context to push your objectively, obtusely asinine narrative that Ewers was "one of the worst." One of the worst. Not bottom half of the roster. Not bottom quarter of the roster. One of the worst. This is the kind of bullshit that compels otherwise sane, otherwise above-average-intelligence argue with you. No more for me. I'll take the pussy way out and put your dumbass on ignore, because you. Fucking. Suck.
  9. You did. By pointing out all the talent surrounding Ewers that Colt and VY didn't have.
  10. Just like your other responses to me, that's 100% not what I said. "10 best" doesn't equate to VY + Tebow. Major Applewhite is likely also one of the 10 best and he's nowhere close to VY or Tebow. Texas hasn't had a shitload of worldbeaters at QB unlike, say, BYU or even Washington or USC. And I haven't posted in this thread in, what, months? Yet you responded within minutes. Dude, fuck off into the sun.
  11. It won't matter. Even if Ewers took over this year and passed for 4k and 40, and Miami did no worse than the AFC CG...these dudes would still shit on Ewers. I don't like his politics or his choices, but he was easily one of the 10 best QBs in Longhorn history. Easily. But the talk on this thread is like he took a team full of AAs and went winless for his entire career.
  12. Yeah. Believe it or not, there are lawyers who refuse to defend someone who's guilty and will refer them to someone else. Then there are lawyers who also will defend the guilty, but for plea-minimizing purposes. Then there are lawyers who defend the guilty trying to get a not-guilty or innocent verdict, and don't care if they're guilty. The ones who won't defend guilty clients are usually ones with a high profile who don't want to risk it being tarnished. That doesn't mean their clients won't be found guilty. It's a risk no matter what.
  13. "This was treason. This was every word you can think of. They tried to steal the election. They tried to obfuscate the election. They did things that nobody's ever even imagined, even in other countries," Trump said in the Oval Office Tuesday.
  14. The amount of stupid in those replies makes me sad...but we live in a country where A&W's 1/3-pound burger failed because Americans are too stupid to understand fractions.
