Big Blue Huddle

Quote from: Stringer Bell on January 03, 2024, 06:40:00 PMSo in your book, Kimmel criticizing others for questionable behavior is the same as Kimmel being falsely accused of being a pedophile? Makes total sense.

That's not what I said so cut the xxxx.  The man has a history of sexist, racist and down right disgusting behavior.  Do we forget the man show?  He's not suddenly excused because oh well he's a comedian or oh well I agree with him politically so he can do no wrong. 

I'm not going to defend Rodgers but I agree with F Kimmel.  He has talked plenty of crap about others but then wants to play victim.

Down 5-1 in what has been a very poor effort.

Pretty much cleared up the question about that last week. 

Honestly, can we please stop with this?  Now I fully believe it's trolling.

Looks like we're currently at 5.

In short I believe the official screwed up and announced the wrong player as reporting.  The consequence must be that official is pulled from any postseason duties. 

Quote from: madbadger on December 30, 2023, 02:40:01 PMI don't know what to make of this trade but the part about acquiring CAA represented players, especially those represented by the team President's son is concerning, as it's rife for all sorts of abuse that benefit the Rose family at the expense of the Knicks.

I would have been fine trading Barrett straight up for him but throwing Quickley and draft considerations make this feel like the moves that drove the Knicks into the desert 20 years ago. IMHO Quickly is one of the better 6th man in the league. Time will tell. So far I'm not really impressed with Rose.

Pretty much my point.  Gave up a lot for one guy who frankly isn't turning the Knicks into that much better of a team if at all.  It also seems like more of a move to make space for next year.  More of the same wheels turning in mud. 

Quote from: BluesCruz on December 30, 2023, 12:37:29 PMOne play???? He blew the Bills game with the most bone headed audible in NFL history.  What was he thinking- he never explained his logic

This past game he throws to Waller in the middle of the field with practically no time left and no timeouts. 

What does this guy not understand about end of game situational football, and clock management

If your life depended upon it who would you choose- Tommy or Tyrod with no timeouts down 7 or 8 with 90 seconds to go?

By contrast when Tommy had to manage the end game against the Packers he put on a fantastic display.

The answer is clear to me...but most people on here likely would go with the veteran believing the two instances I cited were an aberition.  I have no logical response.

You hire these veterans so this kind of stuff does not happen.
Tyrod seems to be the exception

We've also seen what happens to Devito against better competition.  He added some fun to another bad season but the fifteen minutes are over. 

Unless there's something else in the works this is an awful trade. 

I feel the Knicks are improved but pretty much the same team as last year.  They need another piece or they're the same stagnant team.  They will make the playoffs and hopefully win a round which I feel is their ceiling.

Neither QB is the future of this team. 

Quote from: DaveBrown74 on December 26, 2023, 05:23:19 PMThe biggest joke was the non-call on the play where Robinson was clearly mugged. That was 100% textbook defensive PI, and I can't believe it wasn't called. I get swallowing the whistle late in the game on borderline stuff but that wasn't borderline at all. If they call that properly the Giants get multiple shots at the end zone against an Eagle D that was struggling a bit at that point.

Sadly, that's NFL officiating on a weekly basis. 

Quote from: Gmo11 on December 26, 2023, 12:09:00 AMIt's unreasonable to walk into that game expecting to win or really even have it be close. The fact that it was is a sign of excellent coaching.

Nonsense.  It happens all the time in sports.  What about all the no show efforts?  Is that a sign of awful coaching?

Quote from: T200 on December 25, 2023, 10:21:41 PMThen at least make an argument that has some legs. Calling out the coaching after a game like this is akin to blaming the Giants fans for not showing up to support the team.

If Daboll's voice was ignored by this team, they would have mailed it in. Instead, they fought their asses off and were close to pulling an upset. That's not a coaching issue.

And last week was a complete no show effort against New Orleans.
