1984Echoes

There will not be a "JARED GOFF" chant 2 seconds after Baker runs through with the Bucs. THAT will be a generic "Boo" the Bucs.

But the "Jared Goff" chants ramped up 20 decibels at the same time, or immediately after the Stafford boos. Like 2 seconds afterwards. No, this was all about Stafford & Goff. Not some generic opposition boos. "BOO" Stafford. "JARED GOFF, JARED GOFF, JARED GOFF!!!"

They showed the video of Stafford coming out of the tunnel... The boos ramped up 20 decibels as soon as they spotted him.

I am less concerned about credit and more about jinxing or something else going wrong... When we get the signature... a sigh of relief that it got done...

That was a: "What the ****?!?!" scream at the TV... And that was a WOO HOO just a couple minutes later (or, more like a "whew" wipe the sweat off my brow...).

That sounds like a smart idea...

From Buffalo to New Jersey? That's a long hike...

One rumor has Fields to the Falcons for their 2nd and a couple later round picks in 2025...

The question on Free Agents however... is who squeezes through the Franchise Tag process to become available...? According to contract/ cap issues... I believe Chris Jones and Danielle Hunter are freeing up in 2024. I'd take either one. Might be able to snag Kendall Fuller at CB... Or maybe Sneed with the Chiefs... That would devastate the Chiefs if they lost those two (Jones & Sneed)...

I forgot my /s.

The Bears will trade Fields to the Patriots for the #3 pick....

No comment until there's a signature on the dotted line... Only then, at that point, will I crow if he's still in that top10-top5 range...

I'm thinking exactly along these lines...

He is consistently being mocked in the early 20's, sometimes before then... So we'd have to trade up for him it appears.

It reminded me of the Netflix series Daredevil and Punisher. Gritty and street level and sometimes brutal. All good series. And yes, Andor for Star Wars was in the same vein... great series.

On a WAG... I think Aaron Glenn is going to lose out on a "one more year to prove yourself on the ability to develop a top-notch defense"; and that we're going to lose Ben Johnson, most likely to the Commanders IMO.

Satisfied with the final episode of Fargo... Especially with the last confrontation between Ula Munch and the Lyon family.

One of the more successful arranged marriage that I can ever remember...

I agree with that... There's a NOW need (FA) and a Develop Need (draft).

PS: I really like both Powers-Johnson & Braswell since I believe those two to be Dan Campbell types of players... Biters of Kneecaps and overflowing with Grit. But we could use another 2nd rounder for Hutch's bookend DE. Proposal: Commanders have two EARLY 2nd rounders... Trade our 2023 2nd and a 2024 1st for the two early 2nds? That hopefully guarantees Braswell AND one of Trice or Tuimoloau (who I am uncertain as to whether either are Holmes/ DC type of players...). Not certain how that trade balances out value-wise on the charts but we could throw in an extra later round pick if it was required.

Sorry... This is probably an inappropriate time but, I just couldn't help myself... This is my best draft so far using a simulator and a straight up draft rather than crazy trades or anything: NOTES: I really wanted TJ Tampa as the CB but he keeps getting drafted right before our 2nd rounder, in the mid-2nd. Both he and Khyree are bigger CB's that excel at tackling as well as being big, fast, rangy, INT-types of CB's. Sort of what the Lions were trying to get with Melifonwu, even if he ended up at Safety instead. They might be a liability against smaller, shiftier inside WR's... but I think they would prevent some of the "burns" we keep receiving on the outside. Also: Powers-Johnson becomes the top backup at Center and Guard. Covers for Glasgow and especially Ragnow with his bad toe/ injuries. Also, if we don't re-sign Jonah. And Foster and Sorsdal are both guys that can cover OT as well as OG. I got two edge rushers (Braswell at OLB and Tupuola-Fetui at situational-DE) and an interior rusher (Jenkins) but since I went for Powers-Johnson in the 1st I wasn't in position for Trice or Tuimoloau (an actual bookend-type DE to match with Hutch...) since they are falling into the early 2nd round area so... I went for the next best thing. And I got the best college kicker in the 7th.

Both of those... Work!

Vaporized is about right...

An extra syllable actually sounds good there... Try Motown Meteorite ... it sounds good rolling across the tongue... Besides, a meteor would be species destroying whilst a meteorite simply puts on a show...

? The last game of the regular season you mean?
