Haven't seen many Chargers games. Did know that's their m.o. this season.

Kind of. Theyre a local team, so Ive watched them a few times. So I knew that they tend to do that. But I didnt know that its actually how they game plan.

Some crazy game planning if you ask me.

It’s one thing to plan, but if you don’t adjust then you were planning to fail.

If it had been one time and they missed then yeah an argument could be made. But when you do it multiple times when you aren’t yet up by a td and the game goes to OT you deserve criticism. Coaches get paid to adjust, it wasn’t working. Kick only one fg and you win the game and your whole season looks much differently now. Good luck getting a great kicker.

It definitely goes against conventional wisdom. But then, conventional wisdom isnt always right.

Conventional wisdom tells me that Mahomes shouldnt have the success he does throwing the ball the way he does. Yet, hes one of the best in the game throwing it that way.

Mahomes is going to lose a lot of games if he keeps making throws like he was at times last night. I’ve never seen him make that many completely horrible throws.

Pretty sure it was only 4th and 2 against us in own territory. Yep....4th and 2 from own 24.
4th and 2, 4th and 7 and 4th and 8 all in our territory. Also, a 4th and 4 in his own territory.

The point is, it all depends on the game flow, position on the field, etc.

I remember in the Ravens game they were having trouble moving the ball early and he went for it deep in his own territory only down 2 scores, then again down 3 scores...giving Baltimore free points. He is all over the place with these calls. I love being aggressive but if you have a FG to take the lead and your offense isn't exactly playing great, take the points. On the 2 yard line, I don't have any problem with it

Okay someone shove a football in Gigi Meyer's mouth to shut her the fuck up.

"At war with evil'. Urban Meyer's daughter defends her father on instagram (from columbus dispatch)

Parts of the stupid article.

-in a post she compared her dad's firing to a declaration of war

Fell outta my chair laughing at this one.

"The enemy (aka the world) REALLY doesn't want to see good people win"

^^^^^^^

Meyer's not a good person. If he was he wouldn't have enabled that POS Z. Smith for years

And more total bullshit.

"Anyone who truly knows us knows how incredible he is as a person. & the world hates any platform we have, so he's going to create chaos to destroy it. Little does he know he's making it stronger it's not over. Keep watching."

Im not talking about the throws themselves, more about his mechanics. Most QBs have the same throwing motion on every pass, but Mahomes doesnt. He uses all kind of arm angles. It leads to some spectacular plays, but can also sometimes make a routine throw a little more difficult and cause some bad misses.

Lol they took him to Harbor UCLA, a hospital I know too well. Evidently they don't like this guy too much...:heh:

Glad he's recovering, though...

Great news he's recovering.

And speaking of hospitals did you know LeBron & Steph were born in the same hospital? Okay now back to regular programming.

It’s breaking that the NFL is looking at postponing multiple games

that's what I was replying to...only the one that was in own territory. The one way back was only 4th and 2. Risky but probably smart.
