  1. Not that he's way off base but jersey's posts in this thread make me want to jump off a bridge
  2. I’m so annoyed. I lost 2 hours of sleep staying up through the 17th inning before finally giving in and going to sleep only for it to end right after I turned it off plus the Dodgers won. Wish Will Smiths bomb in like the 13th or 14th had just gone out lol. Epic game anyways, reminds me of why I love baseball.
  3. Lmao
  4. I'm still not mad about not taking Maye. Don't listen to what people will tell you in hindsight. I'm convinced that 32/32 GMs would have taken Caleb 1.01. That said, the reports about him basically not doing any due diligence on any of the other QBs is concerning in general.
  5. horsefeathers I hate how familiar it feels going onto social media on a Monday and reading tons of "I watched the film and it's not as bad as I initially thought" takes. Even if true, I feel like we've been in this cycle for years.
  6. It really is bizarre how DJ is like an afterthought in the offense. Every time he catches a pass I'm like 'oh yeah, we still have him"
  7. I think talking about Bagent is a bit extreme, but it is fair to grade Caleb on an extremely tough scale. Elite QBs rarely ever make a read like he did on the interception especially with Monangai open over the middle. (PS checking down seems to be a major issue for Caleb the last few weeks). If he wants to be an elite QB he needs to not make that decision or throw the ball accurately where only Rome can get it. He is not accurate at all right now when he has time to throw. I don't know if it's footwork, trouble seeing over the linemen in the pocket (at lot of his clean pocket throws seem to sail) or he's just not an accurate QB, but he needs to fix it. I think even he would want to be graded on an elite QB scale.
  8. Clearly it had a huge effect as they were defending like it was Lamar out there when it was only Temu Lamar.
  9. This would be a good way to get him in the game and see him run the offense while making it look like Caleb sat because the game was out of reach
  10. 2 passing TDs and 3 INTs for Caleb the last 4 games.
  11. Whenever he has a clean pocket he makes his worst throws. It’s unbelievably perplexing. I’m questioning things
  12. Yeah but they only had 3 possessions. About to score for the 3rd time in 4 possessions. But your point stands we should have had the lead
  13. Huntley is destroying us. I’m not surprised that he’s doing well with our secondary today but didn’t expect 12/13 for 146 yards
  14. I’m just not liking what I’m seeing from Caleb. I’m disappointed.
  15. I called that before the 3rd down play. What a joke.
  16. Reminds me of this from Greg Olson as the Ravens start near their 40:
  17. Can’t remember ever seeing a QB who is significantly worse in a clean pocket. Seems like he sails a lot of throws when not under pressure. No idea why
  18. FWIW since I was starting the rumor train, Lamar apparently did practice today. Not sure if limited or full. I would think given their current position and a very winnable division they will do everything possible to get him on the field as soon as safely possible.
  19. Reports are suggesting that Lamar's status on Sunday is definitely in question. The Bears have actually never faced Lamar Jackson. The last time the teams played Tyler Huntley started and beat the Bears.
  20. this is wild:
  21. horsefeathers that sucks so bad for the Mariners. The thing that’s so tough about baseball playoff heartbreak is that regardless of what the Dodgers are doing right now the playoffs are a weighted crapshoot. To even get back to where they were today they had to have a lot of big hits, a lot of small things to go their way. There is no guarantee that they even make the playoffs next year much less survive the gauntlet and have another shot at finally making the World Series. I don’t mind the Jays winning it, it was an excellent series, but my heart was with the Mariners there.
  22. Lamar was expected to be back at practice following the bye. He did not practice today. Still very early in the week but interesting development
  23. On one hand yeah you can't ignore the first 2 weeks but it is at least somewhat interesting to see how teams have played the last 4 games, especially in the case of the Bears and Patriots who have young QBs and new coaching staffs.
  24. Enjoy the cards @CaliforniaRaisin. I won them last year (1988 Topps) and my kids and I had a blast opening up the packs and me telling them about all the guys from the 80s that I grew up watching. Edit: DONT eat the gum 😂 Congrats to all the winners!
  25. Honestly, I'll be happy if we have a close competitive game with them. Not saying the Bears can't win, but there are so many reasons Baltimore should win this game (assuming Lamar plays). It's much more about the Ravens being the Ravens than it is about being down on the Bears.
