Nassr has so much more squad depth thanks to summer window and theres a winter transfer window before the match 😭

Especially nowadays with tamales coming in here all the time

short flame
#

But I don’t like tamales

rustic mountain
#

Shit man tamales are dope

#

But I also love Mexican food and culture in general

short flame
#

Do Mexican tamales have a yellow paste in them?

rustic mountain
#

Yellow paste?

short flame
#

The yellow orange thing

rustic mountain
#

Not the ones I've had

Plus Mexican tamales look way different

They aren't wrapped in leaves

Yeah. Corn husks

#

Rather than banana leaf

And that thing tastes bad for me

rustic mountain
#

If you can try a Mexican tamale

Also there’s chicken with bones in it which I don’t particularly enjoy

rustic mountain
#

Though being in Canada Idk how readily available that is

Yeah they don't do that in Mexican tamales from what I know

the dough thing

Oh the masa

That’s the thing I don’t like

sweet tree

yeah the masa

#

I've had it with refried beans and it's alright. Chicken tamales is fine too but hate when there's a bone in it lol

short flame
#

I don’t like when there’s bones in food that I can’t see properly what part the bone is so with masa or sauces

#

Because I’m stupid and bite the bone and hurt my teeth

celest zephyr

Same

I don’t like fish as much anymore

Cuz sometimes the bones are tiny

True or False: The Eagles are this years Vikings

#

Do the Eagles have a terrible defense?

hasty mesa
#

No

dim kettle
#

Then nope.

hasty mesa
#

But they are 9-1 but don’t impress tbh

#

I don’t trust that team

#

Chiefs lost that game more than Eagles won

dim kettle
#

You know what. Good teams find ways to win games.

dim ledge
#

The Eagles are good

hasty mesa
#

Yeah like the 2022 Vikings

dim kettle
#

Trust them though? Eh

dim ledge
#

Hurts is fine

#

The two get conflated

#

They can have an inflated QB while being a good team

dim kettle
#

2022 Viks everyone knew what their flaw was.

#

Eagles just aren’t consistent rn

hasty mesa
#

I actually don’t trust Jalen that much in big moments

#

Say we get to playoffs and we get an Oline injury

#

You think Philly wins the SB?

dim kettle
#

Which, yeah. That’s a concern.

hasty mesa
#

No way I say

dim kettle
#

He doesn’t fumble early on, it might be a different game

dim ledge
#

That's what I'm saying Eman

#

It's less of an eagles question and more of a hurts question

hasty mesa

Yeah

#

Niners Ravens SB incoming?

dim ledge

I'd love that matchup

#

Obviously would prefer we win that

hasty mesa

It’d be fun

But just seems like a fun

Yeah

If there was ever a year for Lamar to make that run

It’s now or never tbh

You want a Kadri, Jackets.

celest zephyr

Might as well let him get going

#

The team is ass anyways

robust grotto
#

They bench him and Johnny lol like alright

celest zephyr
#

Why bother scratching one of your best guys

robust grotto
#

And they bench their best young players

celest zephyr
#

It’s a tanking move

#

The blue jackets are a fourth rate org at this point

#

I cant even call them third rate

#

Third rate orgs at least try to not shoot them selves into the foot

robust grotto
#

There’s no reason for them to tank like

#

They have a good crop of younger guys

#

Just play

dim kettle
#

They’re not trying to tank. They’re just so bad that they’re out-tanking a lot of teams

#

And it’s so telling that this season was gonna be a disaster when they were forced to fire their HC before the season started

He’s been released

Like if there were issues behind the scene just trade him

Interesting to see who claims him

#

Patriots I imagine will take a look

#

Them or the Cards

dim ledge

Green Bay tbh

rustic ore

I can’t see it, they’re already paying Campbell big money and Walker looks a lot better to me this season

@hasty mesa @robust grotto PFF awfully harsh on your boy

#

@weak gull You might like this too

weak gull
#

Not a huge pff guy, although I do think some of the gradings fair which is why I say stats about cb vs wideout can’t be trusted

Cause Diggs routed up banks too, but he had 4 uncontested drops that game too

#

Banks is still solid imo

rustic ore
#

I like his potential

#

He's definitely in a good defense to develop in

weak gull
#

Have they beaten a team with a winning record yet?

Closest they've come is against a Denver team that is only now .500 330

I would argue 3 of the 4 best teams are in the nfc

Is he Sauce or even Witherspoon? No, not yet if ever

I think the Niners have a slightly higher ceiling than Detroit , but it’s close

But one of those 5 I think will be the champion this year

Ravens eagles SB

I think Ravens will beat out the browns for the afc north

honest umbra

Or maybe a 2012 SB rematch

rustic mountain
#

I have KC again. Until Baltimore proves it can win in the playoffs

#

KC SF rematch

honest umbra

I can’t trust KC’s four WR4s

fleet orbit
#

The eagles look like the best team atm

honest umbra
#

Till they prove to me they can make a catch

#

Even last year, they had a semblance of a decent WR in juju after losing Tyreek

rustic mountain
#

I can't trust Lamar till he puts a 1 in that postseason W column

honest umbra
#

They have nothing like that this year

fleet orbit
honest umbra
#

Or a WR2

#

Barely a WR3 in rice

#

They thought getting hardman back was gonna change what?

fleet orbit
honest umbra
#

I do agree that it’s hard to tout Ravens till Lamar can win even playoff game though

#

He hasn’t shown up

fleet orbit
#

Only 1 playoff win

rustic ore

Lamar does have a playoff win though

#

A single one

honest umbra

Oh I don’t remember it

Who was it against

Sorry then I'll fix that

I think Chargers?

Oh right it was the Titans

Revenge for them stomping on their logo

Nah sab means win at least 2 playoff games

rustic mountain

No no

#

I am saying at least 2

#

Yeah

rustic ore
#

Yeah he needs to get a 2nd playoff win

#

Should happen this year

honest umbra
#

But yea Lamar’s record isn’t spectacular

rustic ore
#

No excuse not to

honest umbra
#

They should def beat out the browns though

#

Their defense is insane

fleet orbit
#

The Jags look good not great and I’m not buying the dolphins

honest umbra
#

But u can’t go far with DTR as ur QB

fleet orbit

The browns don’t have their qb or rb1

Jays looked good till they faced the test of the 49ers and got whooped

I’m not concerned about Lamar not showing up in the playoffs. I’m more concerned with John being outcoached

Man only reason Steelers didn’t win is because Pickett is a sorry excuse for a QB and Canada sucks

God Bless the PhanaticWAKAINU

That was the most mid game ever

#

And Steelers still had a chance to win

fleet orbit
#

The browns defense is really good but they aren’t historic

honest umbra
#

Browns don’t move

fleet orbit
#

Those type of defenses only come around so often . Last time we saw one was 2015 broncos

rustic mountain
#

Plus if the browns win a sb I swear to be done watching football

#

So Id rather they not

honest umbra
#

What about the lions sab?

rustic mountain
#

Lions are fine

#

Even if Vinny is unjustly mean to my team

dim kettle
#

No. Defense alone doesn’t win you titles in today’s NFL. Don’t even bring up the Bucs title a few years ago. The Bucs scored 31 points.

honest umbra
#

Browns being rewarded a SB in SPITE of what they gave deshaun would break the NFL

fleet orbit
#

The lions defense needs to tighten a bit but they are for real

rustic mountain
#

The last defensive winning team in a sb was what

honest umbra
#

2015

rustic mountain
#

The Pats in 18

fleet orbit
honest umbra
#

Oh pats too

rustic mountain
#

Held the big bad high flying rams to 3

honest umbra
#

But that was just outcoaching imo

dim kettle
#

2015 Broncos and 2018 Pats are the last

honest umbra

Like pats defense was good

#

But mcvay got outcoached so hard

And Goff was Goff

But that team it was

But yea I seriously think there’s only like a few true contenders this szn

And NFC has more of them this time around

fleet orbit

Brady annoyed me because he kept winning but gotta admit mans the goat qb

dim kettle

It’s the AFC’s SB to lose

49ers, Eagles. I’m not as sold on Lions but them as well

fleet orbit
fleet orbit
dim kettle
#

NFC still in need of young QB talent

honest umbra

even cowboys who are the “DA COWBOYS” can make noise

fleet orbit

I’m starting to feel like the eagles are gonna finish the job this time

dim kettle
#

Sorry, I’m not on the Niners bandwagon just yet

#

And the Eagles

honest umbra
#

Yea but I’d take 49ers, Eagles, Lions over Chiefs and ravens

dim kettle
#

Well… We’ll see

honest umbra
#

Bengals lost their wonder boy

#

Texans are too raw

fleet orbit
#

The Texans are not ready yet but gotta give credit the Texans are ahead of schedule

honest umbra

Nah they def deserve credit

#

But they ain’t there yet

dim kettle
#

There’s still nothing telling me Purdy if his team is down late that he can march down the field and win the game.

fleet orbit
#

The jags have the same problems as the Vikings

honest umbra
#

Which is what?

fleet orbit
#

Too sloppy with turnovers . Plus I can’t forget the Niners and chiefs games when I discuss the jaguars .

honest umbra
#

Yea that’s why I think jaguars are frauds

fleet orbit
#

The talent is there for the jags

honest umbra
#

They have some good wins

dim kettle
#

Jags offense just shuts down a lot

honest umbra
#

But some very bad losses

#

Didn’t Texans beat them too first meeting?

fleet orbit
#

Yes

dim kettle
#

And we thought that was the joke lose

honest umbra
#

This weeks games gonna be so good

#

I do think jags pull out this time

fleet orbit
#

I think the jaguars could get to the afc title game but I don’t feel like they’ll win

#

Jags win the division

dim kettle
#

They were close last year

fleet orbit
#

The roster is very good they just gotta clean some things up

#

But offense has been so lackluster this year . So many qb issues and o lines

dim kettle
#

It’s all about what happens in the playoffs

fleet orbit
#

I just don’t want chiefs eagles but my expectation is chiefs eagles again

#

But the chiefs don’t have a great reciever besides kelce

dim kettle
#

Chiefs are always gonna be a contender.

fleet orbit
#

Definitely

#

But that’s my one concern. The coaching and qb are the most proven combo in the nfl

#

I’m surprised people are concerned about the eagles . They are such a timely team, they lost because Mahomes is just that dude

The eagles have a great team

dim kettle
#

Eagles DC got outcoached in the second half

honest umbra
#

I mean they also won yesterday because MVS can’t catch in the open

#

It’s very flip flop

#

Eagles are 9-1 but a lot of their wins have very unconvincing

#

Not as fraudulent as Steelers that one year they started undefeated

dim kettle
#

Buy you know they can be much more than they are rn

honest umbra
#

But there’s kinks in there

fleet orbit
#

It’s not like they’re alone . The lions almost lost to the bears , the niners lost 3 straight , ravens blew a 14 point lead , etc.

#

The eagles are 9-1 and haven’t brought their best . Still a very promising team

I love Jalen hurts

dim kettle
#

That’s the difference between this year’s Eagles and the 2022 Vikings. Everyone knew that defense sucked despite the wins

fleet orbit
#

Besides the Valdez miss, the eagles defense played great in the second half

#

It says a lot about the eagles that I’m in agreement that they haven’t been the best they can be yet 9-1

#

I feel like they’re built to contend year in and year out

dim kettle
#

I’ll say it again. Good teams find ways to win games despite not playing their best.

fleet orbit
#

The eagles did exactly that last night

#

I can’t think of a position where the eagles are really weak

dim kettle
#

I can’t exactly say much better for the Eagles’ competition. I’m not pro-Niners. Great coached team and talent, but I’m not on the Purdy bandwagon. He still hasn’t shown he can be that guy in big spots and he won’t until proven otherwise.

I just love the eagles build. They are good on both sides of the trenches and not a lot of nfl teams are

dim kettle
#

I just love how Niner fans will automatically assume if Purdy is in the game last year in the NFCC that they’re winning that game. Okay. You may have a fighting chance. Anything is better than Josh Johnson. But assuming a whole a lot on that.

fleet orbit
#

I don’t think that’s what would’ve happened I think last year was the eagles year

#

I do feel we get Niners eagles again, I think Detroit is just a step below those 2 on defense

@torn gale for example, hitting a homer with a softball is significantly easier and that is a big element in any form of baseball

It wouldn’t be as easy for girls to do so with a hardball not that it’s impossible just that it’s not as easy

#

But this breakthrough MLB series that was created recently as like a tournament

rustic ore

I've found the throwing motion difference between baseball and softball to be jarring, obviously in baseball your arm is practically whipping forward like a sling so that puts a lot of pressure on your elbow but with softball that full rotation under throw kind scares me

so, irrelevant to us

#

the NBA needs to shorten the number of games in the regular season to like 60 games

#

so losing actually matters ( also some kind of punishment for resting healthy players)

Kawhi and PG have been riding the bench HARD just to lose first round of the playoffs

THAT creates rivalries

The in season tournament is whatever since it doesn't additional games

Lakers vs warriors being a banger as the first year of the play in was bad for the sport
