Breaking Bad was gud.
May skip watching it for a few weeks so I can watch it back to back.

I CAME TO THIS THREAD TO FORGET THAT THANKS DICKNavi
Yes. Great show.
I hate waiting weekly for shows. Going to watch BB in mass on Netflix when it is done since there already coming out on it.
People see him on punt return highlights and think that automatically means he's also a good defensive player.
you're a lame

reminds me of last year on TNF when amendola got a long gain or a TD on him or something and mayock says "amendola just beat one of the best CB's in our game today" and i said what the FUCK?
patrick peterson isn't a top 5 CB in the NFC west, let alone the league

that's why i love netflix original shows (because all episodes are put online immediately, no wait). house of cards and orange is the new black were incredible. check both of those out if you haven't. arrested development season 4 is pretty awful. i'm 9 episodes through and i don't know if i care to go through anymore.... and i loved the series!
I pissed of f a bunch of people giving my opinion on Orange is the new Black. The GF watched it all already. I actually like Hemlock Grove despite hating most modern vampire type shows. I might ceck out house of cards as I like Netflix shows in that they are not afraid to step beyond what basic network telivision is willing to do. I am actually surprised.
Shouldn't that same excuse apply for the gata?
It's strange when the best DL on that day for NY was Cullen Jenkins, who was playing DE, and Shaun Rogers. Joseph was getting mauled and Kiwanuka took some awful angles to lead easy running room for LSH. I have little hope for a 100% Tuck, and JPP is probably ways to go from being ready.
The linebacking crew, ugh. I'm still unsure who is ready for the three spots,although I'm sure Fewell will be looking at 3-safety looks often once again. I'm seeing Dan Connor easily taking the MLB spot over Mark Herzlich, and Keith Rivers or Aaron Curry taking the SLB job. Jacquain Williams will be a nickel LB. The third S will be Mundy or Sash, whoever plays better in these next few games. Sash was really active vs. PIT and seemed to improve over last year. Safety coach Dave Merritt really likes Mundy, though.

My guess is the former. If the Steelers o-line blew them off the ball, competent zone run teams are going to slaughter them. Washington especially will eat them alive.
Mundy is an amazing physical specimen. It's his mental errors that kill him. Dude was a penalty machine at Pitt.

Giving no warning is funner though.
Canadia. Making everything worse since 1867.
My thanks.
I hope something really bad happens to you.
That's not safe for life.
Not safe for work should be titties or something funny.

Bullshit they don't know why he didn't more balls. He was a lazy player who drifts all over the field and can't find holes in zones. It's one of the reasons the Titans struggled so much with whether or not to tag him despite having no one else to really use it on. He is basically Viscante Shiancoe. He has a fair bit of talent but will never be able to sustain that because he seems to give no fucks. Like VS though, he could have a few solid years. Or maybe Jeff Fischer will be the guy to light that fire!......oh wait
Yeah it's a bit disingenuous. I really was not familiar with him (telling since I've seen most TEN games vs IND and HOU) when the Rams started pursuing him. I've never really read the effort stuff. It's been more that he doesn't play to his size. Doesn't catch contested balls and can't block.
It's preseason and I will hold out hope that a change of scenery is what he needed!

Sounds like bad effort to me.
Haven't gotten around to Orange is the New Black, but House of Cards was fucking awesome. I needs me some Season 2, like, now.
Can you survive long in the NFL on just talent alone?
Effort seems to win out over talent almost every time in my book. A no talent guy like Hines Ward was so much more productive than 99% of the receivers who came into the league at the same time who were faster and more athletic.

I know you're not gonna want to hear this, but this is the Pats up and down. low talent high effort guys who are perrennial playoff contenders.
Well, high effort and great schemes.
Y'all aren't ruing my positive vibes! I'm blaming the dysfunctional state of the titans organization.
This is kind of something to watch. Lots of people are seeing their camp and are surprised at how good they look. As much as we dog Arians he did get a lot out of a bad Colts team last year, easy schedule and all

So i'm rewatching Steelers Giants..
I don't know much about zone blocking, but aren't the linemen supposed to cut block on the backside? Not seeing it at all with the few outside zone plays they ran.

They generally do in the pro level - at least the way Alex Gibbs ran it. I know at the college level that some teams make the decision to not block the backside so they have an extra blocker, but presumably that's a bit of a risky calculus at this level.

Yep. Pretty funny.

Isn't this basically NFL-GAF?

Yeah, I mentioned that earlier in my thoughts on the game. Both games last year weren't so much about RGIII to me as they were about Alfred Morris and that offensive line dominating the game. Even still in that second game, the defense gave up a whole whopping 17 points. We lost that game on offense, IMO. More specifically an inability to execute in the red zone because we moved the ball up and down the field between the 20's all game long.
The more concerning thing to me in the preseason game was the inability to convert that punt block into a touchdown. We had some serious red zone issues last season that have to be worked out. There were so many games where we just allowed opponents to hang around. The second Cowboys game is a perfect example. Romo threw pick after pick in that game gifting us incredible field position and we came away with barely 20 points out of it. That game should have been a blowout.
Snap counts for the presason game by the way:

Marvin Austin, Brandon Mosely and Demontre Moore took a hefty amount of snaps.
:lol
What else is she going to say? Everyone feels better than ever every year before the season starts! Even when players show up with huge guts they spin it as saying that this is the first year they gave their body a break and they feel better than ever! And every qb is always on the same page as their new receivers.
What you should be worried about as a Pats fan is menopause. Tom's lady parts are a ticking time bomb. I guess they can get him some kind of hormone therapy, but I don't know how much it will help.
