  1. Wish there was a scenario generator out there that could do the math. But I think if the US wins their 2 remaining home games, they likely won't need a result at Mexico and Costa Rica. Right now: 1. Canada whatever 2. USA 18, +6 3. Mexico 18, +5 4. Panama 17 +2 5. Costa Rica 13 +0 Lets say USA loses the road matches and wins the home matches. That puts US at 24 points. To match that: Mexico needs 6 points from: @ Panama, vs. US, @ Honduras, vs. El Salvador. Probably pretty likely to get 6 points from those games. Panama needs 7 points from: @ Mexico, vs. Honduras, vs. Canada (again assuming the USMNT beats Panama at home) Costa Rica needs 11 points from: @Jamaica, vs. Canada, @ El Salvador, vs. USMNT Getting 6 points from the home matches is easier said than done but IF we can accomplish that, both Panama and Costa Rica need results in all their remaining matches to pass the US. None of this is groundbreaking and is why we are still at 89% chance to advance, but it feels better typing it all out. Now if the USA doesn't get 3 points in Wednesday, we have the right to fully panic.
  2. Lot of subtweeting Nagy here lol
  3. Weird that he'd stress that Poles didn't decide on this alone. Maybe trying to refute the reports that Polian wasn't happy with the choice.
  4. If he's speaking, that seems really good sign for how the organization views him. Not that I was too concerned that they were down on him but its good to hear.
  5. HE FOUND THE WHYS!!!! Nagy must be so jealous
  6. I cant listen, what have either of them said about Fields if anything?
  7. Not sure if people find these interesting but here are the charts after matchday 10. US odds of qualifying drop to 89%
  8. Billy Williams and Ron Santo cancelled?
  9. I’m not thrilled with being 1 point out of the playoff with 4 matches left including our hardest window. Still 5 points ahead of the disaster line though
  10. Still in good shape but anything less than 3 points against Honduras would be a complete disaster and make that final window even more daunting.
  11. 1 goal in 2 matches this window is shitty. Even if they make the WC I’d be in favor of replacing Gregg
  12. Interested to find out how much of the Packers offense was LaFleur, Hackett and getsy (plus Rodgers lol)
  13. I would say Gretzky had the best career of any athlete in team sports. But Brady's is the most impressive considering football is the most team driven of the team sports and he proved last year that he's the biggest needle mover in the game's history. to be fair, you could have placed just about any of the names you think of as all time great QBs into that situation and they could have pulled it off. it's still impressive as hell that it actually happened, though. Kind of an exclamation point on his career. At age 43 though? Pretty much every all time great QB was retired at age 43. Dude threw for 4600 yards and 40 TD and win a Super Bowl at an age virtually all QB are a shell of their peak selves.
  14. So now several reports saying he's not retiring and/or has not made up his mind for next year now. Shefty is going to get torched
  15. Thank you Carolina for the Bears not being the NFC team with the worst point differential against Brady
  16. This is definitely a bottom 5 defense as currently constructed. Not getting help for 2 months. They have to make some sort of move for defensive help otherwise the next 8 weeks is going to be rough
  17. yeah its ridiculous that they are ahead of our super big soccer nation
  18. Except when he worked for us lol. I guess he turned Orton into a servicable QB
  19. Here are the updated charts after yesterdays games. Needless to say, things are looking pretty pretty good.
  20. 2 of the 3 scenarios I mentioned earlier no longer apply. After tonight, I think this path is correct but keep me honest 1. USA wins at Canada and vs. Honduras 2. Panama loses vs Jamaica and @ Mexico 3. Costa Rica loses to Jamaica Think Costa Rica could still tie us in the final window but they'd have to make up an 8 GD.
  21. Re: Pulisic I wonder how much not playing at Chelsea affects him when he comes over
  22. Mexico about to win, Canada winning. Can we get some help from Costa Rica please?
