  1. DTR looked fine today. Hard to have a good stat line when your receivers drop 9 passes and your offensive line repeatedly false starts you into third and long situations. Unfortunately for him, I think we see Flacco starting next week, even if DTR is not injured.
  2. Celebrating a first down during a two minute drill while you're down 11 points. kek.
  3. https://www.latimes.com/california/story/2023-11-26/a-usc-professor-called-for-hamas-to-be-killed-hes-now-banned-from-campus Everyone needs to oppose this. It doesn't matter what your views are. If you support it going against a group you don't like, eventually the censorship police will come for you.
  4. Posting charred remains of children is not proof that Hamas beheaded 40 babies, which is what the original claim was. Contrary to what you think, I'm not arguing that Hamas is not a bunch of child killers with no respect for life. I'm just pointing out that you, like our president Joe Biden, are regurgitating IDF propaganda.
  5. Since November of 2015, when they adopted the Fox News playbook, I think it's safe to say that the answer is all of them.
  6. Cal believes that 40 babies in a village heads were cut off by hamas in spite of no public evidence ever being shown of it. Remarkably, it's the one time he's taken something Biden has said at face value (even though the State Department walked back his comments later). He, and a few others here, equate my questioning of this narrative to support of Hamas, the endorsement of murder of Israeli children, and the denial of Hamas committing war crimes.
  7. De-escalation !!! 4-day ceasefire truce agreed upon by Hamas and Israel. 50 Israeli hostages held by Hamas to be exchanged for 150 Palestinian prisoners held by Israel
  8. You're surprised a billion dollar organization is trying to skirt the rules to get an edge over its competitors? It doesn't have to be a "grand" competitive advantage. All-22 won't have the signal callers in frame all the time. If Stallions was close enough to hear the coaches, then that adds a whole lot more information that you'd never get filming from the stands. Whatever competitive advantage they got from this was likely not nearly as impactful as say, Harbaugh's recruiting/coaching. But that really doesn't matter - there is some non-zero advantage that was gained by breaking rules. This is why Michigan and their vaunted legal team accepted the Big Ten's punishment and left the linebackers coach holding the bag. You can't be surprised that the coaches of every Big Ten school are jumping at the chance to take down their biggest threat in the conference. You know damn well that those same coaches are also reviewing their sign stealing protocols to not get caught the same way Michigan did. Your maize and blue tinted glasses are showing. The Big Ten's hands were absolutely tied. The punishment they gave Michigan was an attempt to appease all sides, including the NCAA, without jeopardizing Michigan's CFP berth. The Big Ten wants as many of their teams in the CFP as possible. They only punished the head coach and did not completely defang the Wolverines by punishing the coordinators too. Even the Browns won a playoff game with their head coach at home. The scary thing for everyone else in the Big Ten is that this has made it personal for every kid who is playing for Harbaugh. I personally think they're going to whoop the Buckeyes. This is my favorite soap opera on tv right now.
  9. You're comparing a hypothetical conflict on our border against a conflict on the other side of the planet. Not an American problem. Who cares? If Israel wants to level their neighbor, they are capable of doing it without any more help from us.
  10. Our Browns are now playing for that first round bye.
  11. lol at the guardian deleting the text after it goes viral. Streisand effect. Heaven forbid anyone try to gain a geopolitical understanding of why we were attacked in 2001 beyond "they hate our freedoms." Oh wait, the freedoms he was talking about are the same freedoms you guys voted against this month. I've said it before and I'll say it again. 9/11 was blowback from the US military allowing Israel to pin its ears back and bomb the hell out of Lebanon in the 80s. If you can't see how that parallels today's situation, then there is no helping you. Another 9/11 is going to happen because of our foreign policy on Israel/Palestine.
  12. The people crying loudest that Trump was a fascist are the same ones who are cheering on decade long jail sentences for the so-called insurrectionists. Absolutely ridiculous that these tapes weren't made public to begin with.
  13. Watching the offense in the 3rd quarter was infuriating, but I don't think you can put it all on Stefanski. There were plenty of 5 and 7 step drops that DTR took in the second half that were checked down to the flats. You don't drop that far back unless the first read is an intermediate/deep route. Stefanski had to keep the game plan simple for DTR just because of the heat that was expected from Watt and Highsmith. The damage was limited to 1 sack and 1 interception with how quick DTR was getting the ball out. I'll wait for the talking heads to break down the all-22 to see if that read was open. He also wasn't helped by the drops from Njoku and Moore. 43 pass attempts when Pittsburgh never had a lead is kind of nuts. I'm excited to see how DTR will do against a lesser defense. But looking at the rest of our schedule, I can see every game going down to the last possession.
  14. Man, that's crazy. Didn't we just barely squeak into the playoffs by beating Pit the last week?
  15. I thought they would've challenged the safety and not the TD. I guess this is why I'm not an NFL coach.
  16. Brandenburg vs Ohio is the precedent for that. I'd be shocked if an example of your case today would even make it to the Supreme Court. The lower courts would uphold that decision, IMO.
  17. I believe I'm on the record as saying everyone in hamas deserves a bullet but I do appreciate you explaining your mental gymnastics to get to the point where you think I support them. It's truly fascinating.
  18. No contradiction, chief. Just because you're more likely to get injured, doesn't mean you're more likely to get that specific injury. The rotator cuff is soft tissue and the glenoid is a bone. You can get a cuff tear from overuse, landing on it funny, getting hit while throwing, and a thousand other ways. The only way to get a glenoid fracture is with a shit ton of force. Why was the $230 million dollar QB allowed to play? Because good ol Jimmy didn't pay him $230 mil to ride the pine.
  19. You're at higher risk for injury if you are already injured. There's inflammation and your body compensates in ways that fuck with good mechanics to avoid pain. That said, fracturing the glenoid is incredibly rare and takes a tremendous amount of force where your shoulder is typically getting pushed toward the torso. I personally don't think they're related or that a smaller fracture was hidden from Vegas. Given how hard he was hit, I wouldn't be surprised if this would've caused a glenoid fracture if he was completely healthy. I think this is the hit that caused the injury. Matches the mechanism of injury for a glenoid fracture. Hopefully this doesn't end his throwing career. He's probably going to need it nailed in place. I don't even know of a single case of this happening to another QB. Here's some technical reading on case studies of elite rugby/soccer athletes with the injury. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6887832/ I can't find a single article about a pro/college quarterback or baseball player with this injury. That's how rare it is.
