Just heard a stat this morning..top 4 teams in utilizing a 2 tight and 2 back set in 2023-
KC, BALT, GB, SF

Just as a reminder, the 4 teams in the conference title games? KC, BALT, GB, SF...

Raiders with Mayer/Bowers makes a lot more sense now!

Raiders with Mayer/Bowers makes a lot more sense now!

Copycat league, offensively and defensively.

Cover 2 shell stops the big plays and the Madden-esque numbers, lowers scoring league widefor 2 straight years... offenses will adjust.

Oh, heavier sets, condensed formations, worked and got teams wins? Guess we'd better try that too.

Only thing that would screw this up is the league doing another anti-defense rule change where all 11 defensive members must line up within 10 or 15 yards of LOS, essentially eliminating the shell, and we're back to Greatest show on turf, Brady/Manning 50+ TD days- which honestly, I could totally buy they might do. If MLB essentially eliminates defense, why couldn't the NFL?

Welp life sucks. All since the beginning of May. Our AC went out and had to be replaced. My sister-in-law who was living in our basement, tells me the toilet is leaking and the bathroom carpet is soaked. Why someone puts a carpet in a bathroom I don't know. We were planning on replacing the toilet and carpet down there when she moved out, so I just turned the toilet off the last few days she was here. The bathroom never dried out so I went looking around at the pipes and found the hot water heater was leaking. It had to be replaced. After the SIL had moved out I went down there and started the removal. Even though I didn't plan on doing it until I have a week off next month the carpet had a moldy smell to it. After taking the cabinet and toilet out, I started pulling the carpet. I hit the toilet turn off valve and the brittle pipe broke inside the wall. Time to call a plumber ( who was an arrogant ass) to fix the plumbing. Since we got the moldy smell out we noticed we had a slight sewage smell down there. My wife asked me to get it done as soon as I can. Yesterday I put the new floor down. Today the wife and me went to the store and bought a new toilet. Only to get home and find our 13 year old Aussie / German Shepherd mix had a tumor break in her stomach and had to be put down. Life Sucks.

Damn, sorry to hear about all you're dealing with @obxyankeefan

One day at a time, little by little things will get better

I am so sorry, bro. Last week took my beloved cat Sox in for a dental procedure. She wasn't eating well, and we thought it was because of a broken tooth. Turns out she has throat cancer and I'm giving her steroids so she will eat. It's the only alternative at this point.

So sorry for your loss.

We have 3 other dogs and have dealt with this numerous times. It doesn't get easier, but time does help. Just need to vent every now and again.

Man that is a tough streak. Hang in there pal.

 

[Scapegoat]

Good to see you around, scape!

Wil and Sam good to see some of the originals still hanging around. Makes it feel good to drop in once in a while.

Speaking of Najee Harris...

In dynasty, was offered Harris, Hubbard and a 2nd for Pacheco. I dont necessarily like 2 for 1 and i declined (since i have a pretty deep RB room) and have nowhere to stash Hubbard.

But truth be told i am not a fan of Pacheco, his usage, or his running style. Think he will have a very short career.

Was considering sending an offer for Harris and a 1st for Pacheco. Too little? (I have Henry, Stevenson, Singeltary, and Spears.)

Worth a try, which side do you think is too little?

Like the idea of taking the perceived step back at RB to gain a future 1st in your position, when Harris could easily put up similar stats as Pacheco

I actually like the Harris, Hubbard and a 2nd for Pacheco.

But I'm crazy like that.

If Hubbard had a shot at cracking his lineup while Brooks gets back to to speed, I'd like that move, but I just don't see it with his options.

Could be wrong on Hubbard, but I think Brooks pushes his back into his clear cut backup role vs being a meaningful split at some point this season

 

[averagejoe]

which side do you think is too little?

His side - Harris & a 1st. (He did originally offer Harris, Hubbard and a 2nd.)

To be honest, didnt think i'd see feedback in favor of it? Saw Harold gave a "like" too. Glad i asked the board.

 

[Barilko]

Having the Jam of not storing the extra player is a killer

thus if he bites on Harris + 1st then you have done well

i like the value of the other offer except for the lack of space as well

Ps where we should be "IN" as well

I'd rather have a future 1st than Hubbard and a 2nd. I think it's a stretch, but at best Hubbard would be valued as a 2nd round pick, so two 2nds vs a 1st...give me the 1st every time when the position of the picks is unknown.

(I wouldn't trade 2.02 and 2.03 for 1.12, but at this stage I assume we are putting mid-round value on the future picks)

Actually, he has 2 firsts for 2025 and both he and the other guy (acquiring his other 1st) had top 6 picks this year.

Give me a 1st + Harris from a non-playoff team for Pacheco over that Harris + Hubbard + 2nd offer all day.

By no means do I think Pacheco will have a bad season or career, but you expressed doubts and I think you're getting real good value for him in that scenario if you're looking to move him

Thing is, that 1st plus Harris wasn't offered, but proposed by Joe, correct? I think Najee has the stars aligned for him this year.

I'm still kinda diggin' that second offer. Hubbard at least proved he's on a Singletary level and Brooks is not a sure thing.

I get the space thing, but those two plus a second for Pacheco is not a bad offer.
