When Daniel Jones is doing practice throws I wonder if he scrambles because he’s being pressured

if we didn't sign max domi ryan reaves and john klingberg

just once can there be consistent defensemen on the team and actual depth scoring

#

this team isn't a top 10 defense. they somehow bs their way cuz marner and matthews carry this team on both ends

#

Hopefully the Rays can actually score a run in the playoffs.

#

But they're pretty much proving my concern that the team has no it-factor at bat when it matters in the playoffs.

celest zephyr

how ironic that the blue jays have the exact same issue

it isn't a jays game without at least 5 guys stranded on base

You'll get some games on ESPN+ But they have their own service.

cable getting too pricey

celest zephyr

beats paying for like 5 services

Because I know in Colombia they used to have many streaming services and multiple games at once and since the league was given to a single streaming service they’ve started scheduling games better

It’s an hour away on a weekday with dogshit traffic

And the rays have played plenty of postseason games as of late

terrible time for a game

rustic ore
rustic mountain
#

Tbh there's always like 1000 excuses

rustic ore
rustic mountain
#

Facts are Minnesota started only a bit later, though a different time zone

#

But doubled the attendance

#

I get the Trop is in a bad place

#

And all that

smoky fable
#

The time of the game was pretty bad

rustic mountain
#

But I just think that you got the playoffs going on. 19k people for a playoff game, no matter the time

#

Seems really. Really. Paltry

#

And who knows. Maybe it really is just the area the Rays are in. Maybe it is just the time

austere lava
#

it can be multiple things at once

rustic mountain
#

But it seemingly has been going on for years

rustic ore
rustic mountain
#

Maybe time to say that the area just doesn't care all that much about the Rays

#

We say it for the Rams a lot

#

And the Chargers

#

But I say that as someone who has never been to Florida, does not know the area, and knows little of what the sports life is like there

rustic ore
#

We’ve been saying that for years. The city doesn’t want to let the team go to Tampa, a place that would actually make sense to have a pro baseball field

rustic mountain
#

I know the Mariners here at times can struggle to not be pushed around by outside fans

rustic ore
#

Like FFS the Yankees spring training stadium is right across the street from Raymond James

austere lava
#

mariners get fine attendance

rustic mountain
#

I am not saying bad

#

I am saying that not as many Mariners fans as Id think would go

#

It definitely isn't a Seahawks game, but that is probably due to the popularity of American football

#

And the fact the Seahawks are a way of life in the entire state

austere lava
#

it will never be football

#

tbh its always weird that we get smothered in canadians during our series

#

we're not very far below in attendance

#

per espm mariners are 10th in avg attendance

rustic mountain
#

Vancouver is right above us friendo

austere lava
#

yeah i know

#

but still

rustic mountain
#

It is a bit odd

#

But

#

Eh

#

With Vancouver and other BC towns being literally like 2 hours or so away, it aint that weird to see so many Jays fans

I like the talents that they do have

Full on honesty from you guys

Because obviously so much I've heard is from Niners sphere

Top 10 QB this season so far

smoky fable
#

Good enough to win in Kyle Shanahan’s system

dim ledge
#

Good enough makes me happy to hear because like

#

Honestly man I just only know so much

smoky fable
#

The team around him is really damn good

dim ledge
#

So hearing it from unbiased knowledgeable folks is helpful

#

Which, ofc, bias aside, I always trust what Juba says

rustic ore
#

Will say this though, the people getting their boxers in a bunch over people saying he's an elite QB need to calm down a bit

dim ledge
#

Idk what even connotates elite

smoky fable
#

Mahomes

rustic ore
#

Like I would probably lean towards agreeing with that opinion for no other reason than we still just have such a small sample size with him, he's only played like 11-12 games as a pro

#

But if he can maintain the level he has played at since taking over as the starter last season all year then I think we can safely call him an elite QB

dim ledge
#

Does a franchise qb necessarily mean elite

weak gull
#

Seahawks to me are solid but Geno doesn’t do it for me and their pass rush is average contrary to last nights showing

smoky fable
#

They’re a wild card team and nothing more

Matt Ryan in ATL is a good example outside of his 1 MVP season

#

In premier league terms Seahawks remind me of like....Brentford, where they're decent and can get wins, but aren't that great and won't do anything. Just a game to like..."watch out for" on the schedule

smoky fable

What a fun offense and year

rustic ore
#

Philip Rivers with the Chargers are another

smoky fable
#

Eli manning

Franchise qb never elite

Joe Flacco

Yup

dim ledge

I love Shanahan

#

PLAYOFF FLACCO WAS DIFFERENT

smoky fable
#

One year

rustic ore
#

He got a car

smoky fable
#

2012

weak gull
#

Flacco was great in playoffs pretty much every year outside his rookie

rustic ore
#

I still think Jacoby Jones should've won SB MVP that year

weak gull
#

He was just mid until then

smoky fable
#

Last I remember him being good was 2014 with Justin Forsett and Steve smith Sr

smoky fable
#

Playoff loses to the Pats

weak gull
#

Flacco went 22/33 for 3 tugs and almost 300 yards

#

0 picks too

rustic ore
#

Jones was one of those TDs and had a 109 kick return TD as well

smoky fable
smoky fable
rustic ore
#

Yeah I was happy Boldin got to get a ring

smoky fable
#

But it’s biased to a Qb award anyways the Super Bowl MVP

weak gull
#

If we wanna go that route then look at the entire run

smoky fable
#

Mahomes had a low passing yardage and won last year in the Super Bowl

weak gull
#

Flacco was elite that whole playoffs

#

It’s still one of if not thee best playoff performance by a qb

rustic ore
#

Can I give a hot take?

smoky fable
#

Sure

weak gull
#

I suppose

rustic ore
#

I think instead of an SB MVP it should be a playoffs MVP instead

#

Similar to what the NBA does

smoky fable
#

I’m surprised they don’t do that

smoky fable
#

NFC playoff performer. AFC playoff performer

#

I'm really surprised at how NFL offsetting pens work

smoky fable
#

In what way

rustic ore
#

It gets wonky

weak gull
#

Only thing I hate about nfl penalties is the spot foul for PI

dim ledge
weak gull
#

But it should be a spot foul anyways

smoky fable
#

Ah

weak gull
#

Also the hold occurs before the dpi in most cases

smoky fable
weak gull
#

So I think it’s fair to offset those tbh

smoky fable
#

Which is how Flacco kind of benefitted from

dim ledge
#

Like, yeah there's a dpi, but you don't make that throw without the hold

rustic ore
weak gull
#

100%. It’s odd but I find offsetting penalties to usually be fair

dim ledge
#

Yeah, from that angle I get it

smoky fable
weak gull
#

What I don’t like is the dpi spot foul and ineligible man downfield giving a redo of the down

#

I think you should lose the down in all cases on offense seeing as the defense will reset your downs if they commit a penalty in 99% of situations

dim ledge
#

That's reasonable

rustic ore
#

I really do hope the NFL adopts CFB's DPI rule

weak gull
#

Desperately needs to

rustic ore
#

No spot foul, just automatic 10 yards and a 1st

weak gull
#

It’s actually comical seeing the large gains on some dpi’s

rustic ore
#

Ridiculous you can get 30, 40, 50+ yards because they want to punish a DB trying to do his job

#

I get it, people like live action Madden football, but come on now

#

Rules are far too slanted in the offense's favor

weak gull
#

And mind you, it happens up the sideline mostly

Because the db only has so much room to play the ball in trailing position

rustic ore
#

Really sucks

weak gull
#

100%

rustic ore
#

On a side note just read a fun fact

#

This Sunday's match up between Pittsburgh and Baltimore will be the 34th H2H between Harbaugh and Tomlin, that's 2nd most all time behind George Halas and Curly Lambeau

weak gull
#

Damn

smoky fable
#

But a banged up Pickett won’t do much though

rustic ore
#

Bruh, Halas and Lambeau went at it 49 times

#

OG NFL was different different

#

Papa Bear ain't mess around

#

Too bad the McCaskey’s have tarnished the reputation of the franchise

rustic ore
smoky fable
#

I remember Carr benefitted from this a lot

#

Couldn’t do it against your bucaneers since his bum shoulder, but it was a raiders staple from him

rustic ore
#

And we appreciate the Saints for putting their big money, injured QB out there needlessly

#

Cause Jameis got put in for all of 1 play and proceeded to throw a duck INT

#

Some things never change

smoky fable
rustic ore
#

I mean they can't move Carr until after next season so I don't know if they'd bother

#

Besides the point their O-line is garbage

#

Amazed at how badly they've regressed despite having some guys who previously were studs in McCoy and Ramcyzk

#

Oh wait were you talking about Tampa?

Cause I really, really would enjoy taking a QB R1 next year

#

On an unrelated note I didn't realize that that Rice kid from USC was Jerry's son

#

Wow

smoky fable
#

Yeah he is

#

Not quite a day 1 or day 2 pick as a prospect

rustic ore
#

Not a bad start to his senior season though

smoky fable
#

rustic ore
#

Damn right

#

On a side note, kinda rough he's only 21 when Jerry is already 60

#

My grandma had my mom really late in life so I can partially relate

So does it really work?

And they’ll never lose their job bc of that. The union has to train them to handle things better. They’ll only lose their job is there’s something criminal that they do

Any other job and you can lose it for sucking

short flame
# robust grotto That’s not how it works when there’s a union involved

At least put in on record. You fail to to the basics of your job, you shouldn’t be there. It’s clearly not for them. You gotta get rid of people who fail to do their job. If it was only a mistake I’d take it, but this was more than that, it shows they’re unable to communicate, that’s their job. Send them on communication seminars at least

robust grotto

They do, they grade each performance after each game

And then they do those seminars before each season

The season only started

I think as of rn there are 7 teams that you can see going to the SB: The AFC is the Chiefs, Bills, Dolphins. (The Ravens and Titans? What about them?) NFC is clear rn to me: It's the Eagles, the Niners, the Cowboys, and the Lions.

celest zephyr
#

The lions going to the sb? Idk about that this season

#

Too early to say for me

#

Chiefs and bills have proven they can win games in the playoffs

Same with the eagles and niners

Cowboys are good but man betting on the cowboys LOL

robust grotto

Better ranking idea; bottom 5

I think its likely gonna come down to the Niners or Cowboys in the NFC, Yeah, I said Cowboys. That defense is elite.

The Bills have potential sure

But outside one run at an afc title game, they've been wildly disappointing imo

dim kettle
#

Bengals are also 9th in total yards allowed. The Vikings defense gives up less yards than the Bengals rn. Think about that.

rustic mountain
#

And we all have our biases, I just think that saying the Bills are proven is odd because they have the same track record as other flashes in the pan

dim kettle
#

Defense for the Bills is always gonna be my concern and look at that, once again, hiring HCs that are defensive minded but the defense is the worst part of their team.
