  1. The good thing with Nate is that he is never wrong. He predicted Hillary had an 80% chance to win and fell back on well Trump still had a 20% chance. What's the point? It's never going to be 100%.
  2. Is Nate still on about Biden being old and needing to be visible on the campaign trail? Is he still quiet about Trump falling asleep in court?
  3. I don't get RB being low value. Gibbs touched the ball 234 times which was 3rd behind Montgomery who had 235 touches and Goff. Even if he doesn't sign a second contract, a lot of first round picks don't. I'll also argue TE is a good value position. Laporta had 86 catches and almost 900 yards. If he puts up that production as a WR, he gets paid double. Kelce puts up wide receiver numbers and gets paid half what a receiver would make.
  4. The Nates have really gone downhill. Silver probably should have just stuck with statistics instead of punditry.
  5. Wagner and Lang weren't great signings either, but if I had a position in my front office for someone just to evaluate college offensive lineman, I would add Quinn to that room.
  6. The defense carried that 2014 team. Stafford had a 85 QB rating that year. That was worse than any Goff year minus his rookie year. From 2012 through 2014 Stafford has QB ratings of 79, 84, and 85. Worse than Goff when Goff when he was ran out of town. After his first year with Jim Bob Cooter, his QB rating goes up to 97 and Stafford continued to get better without Johnson.
  7. Quinn was actually pretty good at drafting offensive linemen. 4/5 of the offensive line last year were Quinn picks.
  8. Biden doubling up Trump in Scranton.
  9. Republican will end up winning but these are some big shifts.
  10. I don't think an equal percentage of votes have been counted yet. According to CNN, 64% of Dem ballots have been counted and 48% of Rep ballots.
  11. This is in a Trump district.
  12. I mean, he's screenshotting the current results. Not sure what that has to do with a Filipowski tweet. Pennsylvania had a primary and a candidate who dropped out 6 weeks ago is getting a sizeable chunk of votes. I'm not buying a bunch of Democrats in Pennsylvania switched parties to vote for Haley. Mail in ballots did not go out in Pennsylvania until the end of March after Haley dropped out.
  13. If Goff was healthy enough to be on the active roster, he was healthy enough to start over Wolford. He got benched and the injury was cover for McVay.
  14. Biden is around 95% and Dean Phillips was on the ballot.
  15. Pennsylvania doesn't have early in person voting but you can turn in a mail in ballot early. I'm going to guess not a lot of people turned in ballots over 6 weeks ago when Haley was still in the race if mail in ballots were even available yet. Pennsylvania is a closed primary so these are registered Republicans. Even independents cannot vote in a primary. This is not a good result for Trump.
  16. It doesn't make sense. The injury was just cover for McVay to bench their expensive franchise QB. Do you think there would ever have been a situation where Stafford was healthy enough to be on the active roster and be the backup but not healthy enough to start over David Blough? An injured Goff is still better than Wolford.
  17. He literally came off the bench in the playoff game to take over for Wolford who got the start.
  18. I'll go with Allen Iverson, Tracy McGrady and Antonio McDyess. Almost put Stackhouse ahead of McDyess.
  19. Goff got worse the more McVay got involved. The Rams QB coach was Zac Taylor. After 2018, Taylor became the head coach for the Bengals. McVay became the DeFacto QB coach in 2019 and Goff got worse. There were reports that McVay would run the hurry up so he could see how the defense lined up and would be in Goff's ear up until the mic cut out. The Lions actually have given Goff more responsibility. They don't micromanage like McVay. They coached Goff how to make pre-snap reads instead of benching him for John Wolford.
  20. 2014 Stafford had Calvin Johnson, Golden Tate, Reggie Bush, Joique Bell, and Pettigrew who was a 1st round pick. Is that worse than what he had on the Rams? Johnson, Tate, prime Marvin Jones, Golladay, Hockenson, Pettigrew, **** even Ebron. Stafford rarely had good defenses on the Lions. 2014 was the exception. Most of the time they were in the late 20's. In 2020 the defense was historically bad.
  21. Has Stafford really been better on the Rams since he allegedly has more talent? The numbers really don't say so. The Rams defense in 2021 was ranked higher than any Lions defense except for 2014 and 2016. Last year the Rams were very Lions-esq, winning 10 games and getting the last Wild Card and losing on the road in the playoffs. I contend the Lions never had success was because the defense was always bottom of the league. The one year it was good the Lions won 11 games.
