DTR was completely overwhelmed. 

Burrow should never have played from the start. Malpractice to have him out there vs Browns — and now I don’t know how you go about fixing it.

I haven't watched a ton of golf the last two years or so. I've probably seen the name but it didn't register as familiar this time around.

Only been a pro about 4 months. But he is widely regarded as the best amateur since Tiger. Most believe he has potential for multiple majors and the career grand slam.

How do Scheffler and Koepka lose that bad to Hovland and some guy I have never heard of? 

You haven’t heard of Aberg?

I never took my shoes off growing up. My wife hates shoes on, so now I do, and went and bought slippers. I need to have support. 

I dont ever tell someone to take their shoes off, though most do. 

NOTE: I didnt just wear shoes inside all day. But I wouldnt take them off right away before stepping inside (winter/cleats/etc notwithstanding). I would take them up to my room and take them off. Or if I was just running in for a few minutes then back out never took them off, etc.

Also pissed I missed out on the 140/1 Scheffler 0 points scored. 

I cannot believe I didnt jump on Europe like a year ago when they were +220. They are now the favorites. 

I will be watching, but only a bit. Probably catch a decent amount of singles. Its on way to fucking early. 1:30AM session 1 for me. I doubt I will be awake in time for a single shot. Ill watch as much as I can of session 2.

Unfortunately, there's not much out there for QB talent but Saleh's job must be really secure, going down with the ship with Wilson as the starter. Too much talent on that team to end up with a sub .500 record.

Wait what? I mean if they go 3-14, I agree too much talent. but 8-9? Thats about what I figured they would be anyway. Their Vegas win total was 9, right? Jets are better than GB was last year, but Rodgers wasnt the MVP Rodgers from 2 years ago. He wasnt taking that team to 14-3. 

Industry? No. 

Job within this industry? Every time.

Got too cute with the play calling. OSU got cute with theirs too with that stupid jet sweep on 4th and 1.

Side note: I flew to Dallas yesterday and Jim Knowles was on the flight, less than 12 hours from the end of the game.

I think I was the only one who recognized him.

Dude looked exhausted

Not even counting that. In the last 3 minutes, any of these don't happen, ND wins (or likely wins). 

1. Don't have the miscommunication on 1st down/sack/TFL - whatever you wanna call it (likely win)
2. Catch the screen/run the ball on 2nd down after ^^^^ play above (likely win)
3. OSU WR runs OB backwards -- clock incorrectly stopped (likely win)
4. ND LB drops the INT (win)
5. 4th and 7 (win)
6. 3rd and 19 (likely win)
7. Play 11 men on 4th and goal (likely win)

That was during FNIA on NBC. I think it was Chris Simms. 

I can confirm Indiana is trash.

I really like Fields, but I’ve been saying for years now there is a reason he slipped to 10. 

I have no idea how Notre Dame lost that game lol.

Hunt is washed, more than likely. But he knows the system, tough hard runner, and can block. One of the reasons I was fine with us potentially signing Zeke is for his pass-pro. Hunt isnt that good, but he is very solid.

So the logic is that the niners gave up 3 first rounders for a QB who sucks, so we made a good trade? There are other veterans who we could have had much cheaper. The Rams only gave up 2 first rounders for Stafford, who is much better than Watson. We greatly overpaid.

I wouldve rather traded 3 first for Watson, than 2 for Stafford. Again, revisionist history that isnt currently working out. But if Watson was still good (and still a little early), that money would be a joke compared to what guys will be in 5 years. And he is younger/in prime. It was a good trade for a team like the Browns, they just need Watson to still be elite/very good and thus far he has not been. Doesnt mean the process was wrong.

He basically missed 2 years. He played a handful of games in 2022. Almost everyone thought that it was insane to give up 3 first round picks. Where would you rank him in AFC QBs? If a franchise is going to give up 3 first round picks, you better be the best. He's not even in the top half. 

At the time we traded, he had only missed 1 season. And there was decent speculation that would be his punishment.

After missing basically 2 years, I think that it is fair to call him a project right now. He put up big numbers in a gimmick offense in a dome in a terrible division. They got exposed when they made the playoffs. If you are going to give up 3 first round picks, it better be for an all-time great, and even then it doesn't usually work out. We win easily last night with an average QB.

He had only missed 1 year, and it was mostly on his own accord to get out of Houston. And we overpaid, because he was going elsewhere if we didnt. This is all revisionist history, the move is not working out currently, but it was a swing a franchise like the Browns had to make, imo. How many more QBs did you want to draft and waste more time on? 

That second face mask was bad. The first one his finger got caught. It wasnt as aggressive as it looked, as he was trying to free his finger. Still not sure why he grabbed initially on it though lol.
