Cant speak for every one, but for me its not worth the head ache and hassle of needing to find a stream site, making sure its a good site and all that. Sure I have Hulu and Netflix for when I want to binge watch, But if I just want to sit down and watch the game, I like having the ability to watch it from what ever room I choose to sit in and if something isnt working, I get to play customer and call and bitch about it til its fixed. I did the Sports bar thing one year, and I figured it costs me about $50 a game with food and drinks. The Sunday Ticket costs me $240 for the season.

$50*16= 800

Do you have to install the dish on your house to get the ticket for $240? I tried the stream way but it said my house doesn't qualify.

I have had Directv for 14 years since I moved to Florida. I did shut it off for one year, but I was able to get around that by basically suspending it for a year (paid $120 for the year to keep the account active with no programming). So I get grandfathered into the original price of $240 when i call them each year. Usually I think its up to around $375 for the Sunday ticket. But yes, if you live in a house, they wont let you buy just the streaming package. You might be able to get around that by using some ones address that lives in an apartment complex or Condo where they are not allowed to have a dish. Once you have the code access for streaming through Directv, you can use it anywhere in the US, if you are over seas, you have to go through a VPN that makes you appear as if you are in the US.

Thanks for the info. The Skins are nationally televised 8 times this year in my area. So really I'm going to the sports bar for 8 games. Spend $10 per game on drinks so its only $80 bucks for me for the year. There is no voice but its on a 50 inch screen. The bar is only 10m in away from my house. So I do that route for now.

Can that streaming code be shared for multiple computers?

NO, the code is good for One login. IF you know some one that has the ticket, but watches most games at home, you could slip them an extra $50 and they could get the Ticket Max package which also gives you one login for streaming. Thats how i was able to let my son watch the games when he was in school 4 hours away. And How I was able to watch the games last year while I was in China.

I been thinking.. if there is a prime young LT there when we pick next year, would people freak if we took him and slid Trent inside to LG?? Well this assumes that Moses becomes more than JAG.

Friday presser

gruden

September 30, 2016


Head Coach Jay Gruden


On the injury report:

“Out will be [Bashaud] Breeland, ankle; [Josh] Doctson, Achilles; [Shawn] Lauvao, ankle; [Dashaun] Phillips hamstring. Questionable will be [Trent] Murphy, elbow, shoulder; [Kendall] Reyes, groin.”



On if G Arie Kouandjio will start at left guard:

“Yeah, I think he’s had a good week at practice, and I think that’ll probably be the starting point as of right this second.”



On the progress he saw in Kouandjio this summer:

“Well, he’s a big guy, number one. He’s strong and he’s physical. He’s played behind a couple of pretty good guards, you know, with [Shaun] Lauvao, [Spencer] Long, [Brandon] Scherff. He’s just been waiting his turn. Continued to get better working in practice and now he’s got an opportunity like a lot of guys get in the National Football League via injury or something else. This is a chance for him to show what he has and we feel comfortable with him in there. He’s been here, knows the system. Like I said, smart, big and physical.”



On if there is a level of excitement seeing players get new opportunities to play:

“There is, there is. You never want to see anybody hurt or play for injury-type reasons, but on the flip side of that, you are excited to see those guys play, really. Especially [Kendall] Fuller and Arie, those guys have worked extremely hard and they’ve shown some great prospects and they’ve shown the ability to be good players. So we’ll see how they do when the lights cut on, and I have total confidence in them. And that’s the important thing when you practice, and you have to make sure you understand that the guys who aren’t playing, they have to have themselves ready to play at all times. So, I think the good thing about our group is even the guys who haven’t got an opportunity yet, they’re continuing to work and when they’re opportunity comes, we’re hopeful they take advantage of it, like Fuller and Kouandjio and the rest of the gang.”



On if Spencer Long will start at center:

“Yes.”



On how Long has taken on the role at center:

“He’s done good. He’s done really well. He’s progressed nicely without a doubt. But, you know, he’s played a half a football center really. A little bit, I think he might’ve played a play last year. So, we’ll see how he does from a consistent standpoint, and that’s the big challenge for him – play-in and play-out with the snaps, the cadence, the calls. I have total faith that he can do it. It’ll be a challenge for him and I think he can do it and I know he’s confident in his ability to do it. So, just got to go out and execute.”



On if they have focused on Browns RB Isaiah Crowell and the Browns run game this week:

“No question, no question. That’s a power running game. They do a lot of good things in the running game, not just with Terrelle Pryor and the read option – that’s secondary – but the No. 1 guy is Crowell. He’s an excellent back. He’s averaging I think over six yards a clip. And, you know, you start worrying about all the stuff going on with the formations and then all of a sudden they bang you with Crowell right up the middle with a power play. It’s hard to stop. Like I said before, they’ve got an excellent scheme. They’re a field goal away from being 1-2, and then they had a 20-point lead against Baltimore, 2-1. And they played pretty well against Philly until the snap went over the quarterback’s head. So, they’ve been very competitive. They’ve got good skill, and they have a good power running game led by Crowell.”



On if Kouandjio will stay at left guard if he plays well against the Browns:

“Oh, we’ll see. I don’t like to really project. I’m just a one-game-at-a-time type guy. See how they do, we’ll grade them out. When [Shawn] Lauvao gets healthy – hopefully that’ll be next week – then we’ll make that determination later, but Lauvao was playing pretty darn good before he got injured.”



On if he is hopeful G Shawn Lauvao might be ready next week:

“Oh, absolutely. Lauvao and [Bashaud] Breeland and [Josh] Doctson and [Dashaun] Phillips. We’ll see.”

Offensive Coordinator Sean McVay


On what started clicking for the running game in the fourth quarter last week:

“I thought the offensive line did a great job coming off the ball, creating some ‘knock-off’ off the line of scrimmage and then our backs running hard. I thought Matt [Jones] was putting his shoulder pads down, finishing falling forward. A big back like him being able to get that body lean, we felt good about that. It was encouraging to see, especially on that last drive.”



On how RB Matt Jones has improved:

“I think a lot of it has to do with opportunities. I had to do a better job of being able to mix in the runs in those first couple weeks. We got a few more opportunities and when they presented themselves in that crunch-time situation I thought he ran his best. A bigger, physical back – I thought that he got better as the game progressed and that’s what you want to see from him.”



On if having T Trent Williams at guard created any limitations for him as a play caller:

“Yeah, fortunately. talking with Coach [Bill] Callahan during the game, I asked if there were any limitations, anything that we can’t do with Trent at left guard. He said, ‘No, he’s good to go.’ And it’s a credit to Trent and just what an aware and instinctual player he is to be able to adjust inside and Ty [Nsekhe] did a nice job at tackle. It was a credit to Trent and Coach Callahan having those guys ready to adjust and go.”



On how Williams performed at guard:

“I thought he looked excellent. He looked really comfortable in there. You can just see why he’s such a special player. He just has got a natural feel for the game and sliding to gap inside. It was very clear just what a great football player he is overall and he did an excellent job.”



On why WR Jamison Crowder is so effective on screens:

“I think it’s the same reason why he’s such a great punt returner. He’s got a great feel for tight windows and spaces and he can put his foot in the ground and get vertical and hit that top acceleration very quickly. You look at it, it takes all 11 on that specific play where he did go to the house, but I thought it was a great job by him. He’s always been a guy that’s so good at screens and I think it’s a very similar translation to what he does on punt returns.”



On getting TE Jordan Reed more involved in the red zone:

“I think you always want to be conscious of getting your best players the ball and Jordan is certainly one of them. In a lot of certain situations, you try to move him around and create some favorable matchups. Defenses are aware of how well he played at the end of last year, so he’s getting a little bit more attention. We’re not running away from the problems that we have had in the red zone. It’s something that we’re continuing to work on it and we’re looking forward to the challenge to respond to it and being better in that area this week.”

Worst part about tomorrows game

We win and the line will be, oh they just beat the Browns, everyone beats the Browns.

We lose and its back to Washington is a train wreck, Grudens on the hot seat and the Redskins should consider trading into the top pick to nab a QB.

i agree with those statements. If we did lose at home you would think some heads would roll. Sharkinva, let me ask you this if we somehow lost to the Giants Sunday would Barry have gotten fired?

Nope. SMGM is going to role with this coaching crew til the end of the season. Now if we are still giving up 25 points a game or more consistently at the end of the season, Barry is on the hot seat. But it would take a really really bad loss that is totally on the defensive coaching for Barry to get fired right now.

Right if he gives up 25 points to the Browns with Cody Kessler doesn't that warrant his firing?

IF 27 to Dak Prescott didnt get him fired, 25 to Kessler wont do it either.
