Mr.TaterSalad

You got that right!

Most fans probably. He's played 3 full games in 2 years.

Caleb Williams looks terrible out there. Whatever was wrong last season, Ben Johnson hasn't fixed yet.

I wondered the same thing haha. Unless we added a player I didn't know about and Brian Branch changed his number.

Fumble, Branch knocks it away and creates the turnover.

Don't worry, we were told Davenport would be suffice.

Whatever nice things I just said about the offense, I won't be saying about the defense lol.

Loved that opening drive by the Lions offense. They controlled the line of scrimmage and ran the ball really well there.

First play and it's a big time play by Goff and St. Brown.

Communication and talent are two different things obviously, with two very different solutions. If it is simply communication issues they were having last week, those are problems that can be cleaned up in practice. Communications issues get correct as they learn Morton's playbook more, understand the blocking schemes needed for his play designs, etc. If it is a talent problem, those cannot be quickly corrected in practice and may need to be corrected outside the organization. When I say a talent problem I'm specifically talking about Graham Glasgow's play from last week and parts of last season. I'm talking about him being washed and just not that good anymore; a guy who is 33 year years old and is on the downside of his NFL career. Does he now lack the speed, power, foot quickness, and more that he had at the beginning of his career? If so, I don't see how an offensive line is successful if the guy tasked with getting your QB both a clean snap and a clean block up the middle is washed and can't hold protection for Goff. I have some worry about Christian Mahogany not being as good overall as we thought he might be coming out of last season and going into the offseason. I'm certainly willing to give Mahogany more time to display his talent, gel with his linemates, learn the playbook, and so forth. I'm not really that worried about him just yet. I'm also not as worried about a rookie in Tate Ratledge, because I think the talent was on display as a college player in the very best conference in SEC. But if Glasglow is truly a problem all season long and can't correct the issues he had last week, I think that will have a downward effect on the rest of this line. It will effect our running game most of all, which effects our ability, Goff's ability, to be successful elsewhere, since we are such a run focused offense, that includes tons of play action and motion-based disguises.

Did Biffe call plays today because the playcalling was great and the offense fired on all cylinders. Their downfall passing attack looked really good and Underwood looked like a #1 recruit.

Code word, we can't do anything or run government departments because DOGE fired too many people. Oooopppsss!

Well, Underwood tried throwing a pick on his very first throw of the game. Luckily CMU dropped a gifted INT and we ended up scoring on the drive.

I hope the interior of the offensive line isn't permanently broken and a longterm problem for this team. If they don't get their offensive line issues fixed then we're in fire a long season.

Nancy Mace's sliding scale of justice for people . . .

Nancy Mace is a terrible ****ing human being. Here is what she said and retweeted the other day when she thought the shooter was a trans person. She retweeted this Daily Caller post FYI. Now here is Nancy Mace's tweet today after finding out the shooter is straight, white, male, and possibly Christian.

I actually, generally, agree with much of what you said above. I've been one of those negative Lions fans in the past, but have not panicked this week after the loss. I was disappointed by the lack of a run game, the lack of a pass rush, and concerned about how the interior of this offensive line looked. The lion of scrimmage on both sides of the ball, in particular on the interior offensive line, has to look better this week. I'd also like to see the playbook open up more often and I think it will this week. I want different play designs on the run, I want TeSlaa more involved, and I want to stretch the field more. But I don't think the sky is falling on this team . . . yet! The one thing I disagree with is the point about going 0-2. Statistically speaking, our season is over if we go 0-2. Since 1990, there is an 11.3% chance of making the playoffs if you go 0-2 to start a season. I know this team has significantly more talent than most teams in NFL history that have started 0-2. But I would genuinely start to feel bad about this season if we lost to a Bears team that managed to blow it at home, against a rookie QB playing on the road. Starting 0-2 from a statistical perspective is very high hill to climb and obstacle to overcome.

I have no clue if there are multiple Tyler Robinsons in St. George Utah. I have no clue if there is another member of his family named Tyler Robinson. But there was a Tyler Robinson, from St. George, UT who donated over $200 to Trump's Make America Great Again pack in 2020. https://www.fec.gov/data/receipts/individual-contributions/?contributor_name=Tyler+Robinson&contributor_city=st+george EDIT: I am reading from some on reddit and social media that this Tyler Robinson might be a different person from the shooter named Tyler Robinson. If I am wrong in posting this information then I would like to admit so and acknowledge my error. If indeed I am incorrect.

No, sorry. My post was supposed to have quoted Sloth's post saying Raymond + Kasper + multiple firsts for Kaprizov. The quote didn't come through for some reason. I was saying if we're giving up all those assets in a trade then I want McDavid or Draisitl in return. Without the quote carrying over it looks like I was responding to you, but it was intended for Sloth's post.

I want to try the interactive, mock press conference booth. Then I would tell the world to bury me upside down so my critics can kiss my ass.

If you spew racism, bigotry, hatred, transphobia, homophobia, xenophobia, Islamophobia, or antisemitism, but you do it at a college campus or on a YouTube podcast, that's doing it the right way. Forget that spewing all that **** is wrong, if you say it all politely, do it with a smile or do it without a white hood on then you're doing it the right way.

If you're giving up all those assets you better be getting McDavid or Draisaitl back in return. To answer my own question, do I want him? Of course. Would I give up what I think it takes to get him? It depends on wat the Wild are asking. I would guess they'd want a top young player + a pair of prospects + a pick. I don't know that it would have to be both of Raymond and Kasper though.

A real hell hole. Can't even go to college and be safe there. I agree, time for the National Guard to go in. SARCASM!!!!!!!

So the alleged shooter is not transgendered? Not a lesbian? Not a person of color? Not Muslim? Not an immigrant? You mean to tell me that Donald Trump, Nancy Mace, and a bunch of Republicans irresponsibly rushed to make a judgement on this?

Charlie Kirk fundamentally believed (and the right still believes this) that a society that has more guns will be safer. That a good guy with a gun will keep you protected from a bad guy with a gun. That theory was tragically tested in a real life scenario, not in a laboratory or a college research paper, and didn't work out for Charlie Kirk. A bad guy with a gun shot and killed him and no good guy with a gun would have been able to save him. That's because bad guys with guns don't announce what they're going to do. There is no heads up or forewarning that they're going to commit a crime or a violent action. There are solutions that could solve this problem and things that could have saved Charlie Kirk's life. Solutions like background checks and mental health screenings on all individuals purchasing a gun, to ensure that person is capable and qualified to own a gun. Even more than that, we could have done, at any point in time after one of the thousands of mass shootings this country has experienced, a gun buyback program as Australia did. In the wake of Australia's worst mass shooting event ever, the Port Arthur massacre of 1996, the Australian government instituted a gun buyback program to reduce the number of guns in society and prevent future mass shootings. Here in America, we have more guns than people in society. We have an estimated 120.5 guns per every 100 Americans. We have one of the highest gun death rates in the developed world. In 2023 we had 13.7 gun deaths per 100,000 citizens. In Australia the number of gun deaths per person is .103 for every 100,000 persons. Why is that number so low? One reason, among many, is because they simply have less guns in society. Therefore, angry, bad, mentally ill, and/or vengeful people would simply have less access to a gun and less ability to carry out their violent acts. A gun buyback policy, implemented at anytime over the last 30 years in this country could have saved the lives of countless Americans, including our children and Charlie Kirk himself. Gun buyback programs work!
