I think the stage is great, I didn't think it got much that shit except for being a huge spike in difficulty (and conquest has about 3 or 4 of those spikes in the Japanese release).

I would have joined them in Peyton and company broke my heart yesterday.
But now.. Fuck the pats!!
Pats = Emperor Palpatine
Seahawks = Kylo Ren
Panthers = Rey
Cardinals = Finn
Broncos = Han Solo (old and busted version)

Hmmm since we're trying to tap that Panther ass this weekend, an apt assignment ;p
You going to the game on Sunday? I hope you're able to, great experience. Even good crowds get somehow much louder in the playoffs.

Nah, Panthers a much tougher opponent than the Pats. This NFC Championship match is the true SB.
End of the day though
Finn got friend zoned hard by Rey ;p at least that's how I saw it haha
I ended up going to the divisional game yesterday since that was a guaranteed playoff game and I managed to grab a ticket through Ticketmaster when they first went on sale for face value. Going to skip the NFCCG (7,000 tickets, all sold out in under 3 minutes) as I'd have also have to book a flight (live in NYC now) and secondary ticket prices are in the $250 range for nose bleeds.
Took a peek at Super Bowl tickets on the secondary market and a little part of me died inside :/ Knock on wood, but definitely going to dive into my savings if the Panthers make it.

Broncos are the Millennium Falcon. Might not look might much but they got it where it counts.
Lions are Jar Jar.
Kaep is not that different from Dennis Dixon, doe.
Definitely better than Justin Roper.
I'd agree, but any of the 4 can win it all. All flawed.

Yeah I'm gonna have to skip on going to the game.
Instead I'll be ruining my liver at a bar.
Either in euphoria or tears. Maybe both
I haven't quite figured out how I'm going to take this season if we lose Sunday (or in the Owl for that matter). On the one hand, this is borrowed time because this team certainly was not supposed to be this good this season and will almost certainly be better next year.
But on the other, to get so close again...

If this ends the pats dynasty Gata will just become a superfan of the next big thing. It can't ever end.
I don't think Bradford is his ideal either. But quick decision making and reliable accuracy is more important than running ability. I really think his ideal QB is Mariota, but after that, a sober Manziel

Why would I do that
Just last week I heard Chip was looking to trade for Kap no matter where he went. It's all a lot of smoke and mirrors until we see how the off season and more importantly the draft shake out.
does not compute

They don't have to leak anything, Squidward doesn't really fit in an NFL offense that requires the quarterback to actual read the defense and look for open receivers that aren't directly right in front of your face. There's no NFL defense that will allow you to take off for 45 yards after your first read isn't open, not anymore.
Vomit.
Did he buy his blazer from the same store McAdoo did?
Everyone likes to think they know but before this season no one would have guessed Bradford.
If for some reason Kaep is let go, Eagles better get him.

Dom Capers takes this as a challenge
I think Kap is salvageable and wouldn't be surprised to see him flourish in an offense that relies more on quick reads like Chip's. I don't know why Kap would be less of a fit for Chip's offense than Bradford? Kap actually presents a running threat on a zone read and he has a great arm for deep balls, both things Bradford doesn't possess.
I'd certainly take a chance on someone like Kap or RGIII, who have proven to have had NFL success, than a drunk deadbeat like Manziel.

Basically. All analysts like to say this or that QB is Chip's protege.
Pretty simple what has happened so far with him in the NFL. He inherited Vick and Foles. Vick made his offense run better than Foles but couldn't stay healthy.
Foles took over and went on a tear but Chip, and most fans, saw that he wasn't the answer. Season 2 proved it.
Foles had to go. But who really was available? Chip fucked up cause he could have traded the house for Mariota or signed someone like Tyrod Taylor. I bet if he had picked up Tylor they would have been in the playoffs.
Anyway he thought his only option or play to get a franchise QB without giving up too much was Bradford. Sort of kinda worked if you believe the 2nd half improvement showed the direction Bradford was heading towards.
I think ultimately he just wants a great QB with mobility as the ideal. Bradford isn't that but neither were Foles or Sanchez.
If he thinks Kaep can be salvaged then of course he will be ideal because his mobility will make the offense lethal.
Well its either spend decent money on Thurmond or guys like Weddle or Berry.
I'd take Berry, Weddle, and then Thurmond in that order.
I think we need a long term answer at S, opposite Jenkins, regardless of who is QB.
And even if the retain Bradford, they will have room to spend some money. Depends on what they deem priority.
He will never make it so it is all academic. He will never fit in any coaches' culture, especially Chip's. But he was a much different player than that Stephen White takedown made him out to be
If they are trading Kaep or signing Bradford, then it really is about the free agency period in March. But agree about the smoke and mirrors

Yes! Even if the Eagles take a QB at #13, I'd want to bring in someone like RG3 to compete for a starting job.

Dom overthinks himself into a pretzel sometimes, all you have to do is use man coverage and spy with the safeties, as long as the receivers aren't wide open and you contain him, Squidward will beat himself by panicking and run into the defense. Squidward is incapable of throwing receivers open and he sucks at the long bomb. He's like the anti-Nick Foles. There's mobility and there's run-first quarterbacks, Squidward is a run-first quarterback.

McCarron for Alex Mack, straight up trade. Win -win for both teams. Bengals center is weak link on o-line.
What I'm saying is that I don't think we'll have the money for Thurmond, let alone Weddle/Berry. If we make smart cuts/restructures, we're looking at roughly $35M in cap. Starting players going to FA include Curry, Thornton, Carroll, Thurmond, Bradford, and then depth/ST players (Biggers, Ajirotutu, etc). And we should lock up Cox now. Bradford, if signed, is probably gonna take half of that cap. We can probably let Carroll walk, but we have potentially Cox, Curry, and Thornton to sign before we look at safety. And even if we let one of Curry or Thornton go, it becomes tight. And this is before using FA to bring in any outside talent like better Guards or WR. I hope we can bring back Thurmond honestly but I just don't know how it'll all add up

Squidward's long delivery makes it incredibly hard for him to execute quick throws and timing throws, and Squidward is incapable of making quick reads of any kind, in addition to Squidward's lack of touch on the deep throws, he can't put air under his throws, everything is a laser. Manziel could at least throw a deep ball.
How many coaches have to give up on RG3 before the fans get that he is not an NFL passer? Same question, Kaepernick? These guys aren't like Tyrod where they never got a chance.
The notion that Chip's offense is some pre-school offense is a little off as well. Foles was out b/c he was too slow in reading the defense. The QB still has to eliminate the wrong guys to look at before and after the snap. Especially since it is an offense that doesn't use a lot of max protect, there are going to be free runners the QB has to account for

This angle shows how insane that catch Olsen made was

Dilfer might be an idiot but he's right in this case, Squidward is done, simply not fixable.
If Chip is planning to die by a thousand delay of game penalties, then he should keep Squidward around.

people will laugh, but based on last year (and last year alone!), gabbert makes his reads quicker. still, i'd prefer chip give kap a chance. ceiling would be much higher with kap in any offense! he just needs a coach who knows what he is doing and he didn't have that last year
