Can anyone tell what the crowd keeps chanting?

I definitely don’t want him fired or anything but they picked a really awkward time to do this after that total collapse last week.

I sorta loaded this picture in my brain like pictures used to load on slow internet - from the top down. So I saw the arms and the small face and thought it was one sloth looking through its back legs as it hung. So then I continued to load the rest of the picture and when I saw the big face, I tried to make that fit with my earlier interpretation so, for half a second, I thought that sloth had a face for an asshole

Personally I’ve never liked the idea of NSFL. It just doesn’t feel like it has the eighth connotation, it’s wording feels like it’s meant to be a joke when it’s content is rarely funny. I think just using “Gore” or “Death” would be absolutely better.

Matt Ryan I think is just too far past his prime. I’d actually bring in Wentz to at least try. But that’s assuming he’d take a smaller contract, his pride seems to be a problem.

I guess we’ll have to just agree to disagree. Ultimately I don’t think they have a great chance either way, but I think that chance is 0 with Wilson whereas a slightly more unknown quantity (as in, we haven’t seen them on this exact team) at least is something different. If it turns out to also be 0, you really didn’t lose all that much. It just seems 100% worth the risk to me with a team this good. Literally everything but the QB and the OL to a certain extent is excellent.

I couldn’t disagree more. I’m a UCF fan, I’m very aware of Bortles abilities. He is absolutely not as good as Brissett, there’s a reason he retired while still relatively young for a QB. There’s a reason he was behind Trevor Siemian on the QB depth chart in Denver.

The only part about Wilson that was better than Allen in that game was he threw less turnovers. Allen’s stats were better in pretty much every other way (and that’s with him throwing the ball nearly twice as much because they couldn’t run the ball against the Jets D). And two of the INTs were unforced but one wasn’t, and there’s also the fact that Allen felt the need to play hero ball for a reason, they couldn’t get anything going on the ground and they weren’t moving the ball much in short plays either. To the point that Diggs was getting visibly frustrated (which partially led to one of the unforced turnovers because Allen tried to force him the ball). But I agree, the Jets were kind of gifted that win, but that’s also with the Bills stacking the box because the didn’t fear Wilson in the air (and he didn’t prove them wrong).

I think you’re thinking about this wrong. I don’t think if you run the same plays with a different QB that you’d get better results. I’m saying if you have someone that can be a game manager and set the protections correctly and get 4 to 5 yard passes when you need to, defenses can’t just key in on the run and then Breece Hall and Dalvin Cook will be able to get some runs without being contacted in the back field every play. But Wilson can’t do that, he overthrows screens and he makes terrible decisions that put the ball in danger for now reason. It’s like having Jameis Winston without the occasional explosive play.

I can’t in a million years see Travis doing something like this for marketing. Especially since neither of them need the extra publicity.

What I can see is he made a joke on his podcast and the rumor mill got a little carried away and they decided together to roll with it for kicks.

They should be able to get pretty much any backup with a trade. They’ll get fleeced but trading a couple 4ths or a 2nd isn’t going to kill the team long term and they could legitimately make the Super Bowl with a below average QB (as opposed to dogshit) and some luck.

Jacoby Brissett didn’t do too bad last year with a significantly worse Browns roster. The Jets beat the Bills (a Super Bowl contender) with Zach Wilson. It’s absolutely possible they’d win a Super Bowl with a Jacoby level QB. I’m not saying they’d be a guarantee but no one is. The Jags almost made the Super Bowl with Blake Bortles.

I’m finding out from this that it’s owned by the same company but Hinge has a better formula for that kind of thing. You comment on an aspect of their profile (a picture, their response to a prompt, etc) and that gets sent to them. Then they can reply (which triggers a “match”) or not. You can also send likes without a comment but obviously that won’t be as effective.

Yeah sounds like a Purple Cow, I’d be all over that

Seems trading Lance is on the table, but I’m not sure he’d fetch much, and definitely nothing close to what the 49ers gave up for him.

I started playing again recently and I have a special research to add new friends. I’d also like to be able to exchange gifts with someone from a different biome for the Vivillon patterns.

Anyone want to share friend codes?

 

I’ve been having issues with my account for over a week. I made a post here a week ago detailing some of the issues (I made it on the wrong account and I can’t even see it on this account now). Essentially, every community I visit that’s not on Lemm.ee will be missing posts and I can’t see any of my own posts. I’ve tried through Memmy and the website with the same results. I also tried making a post on a community from a different instance and it posted to a completely different community on a completely different instance. And then when I tried to go back to it to delete it, I couldn’t find it because I can’t see my posts, eventually someone commented on it and I could get to it through my inbox.

This is already my second account so I could get off lemmy.world and I’d like to not have to create another one so I’d love any insight on steps I can try to resolve this. Or worst case, delete this account so I can try remaking it with the same username. I like this instance so I’d like to be able to use my account here if possible.

 

Many people said before the draft that Richardson would need to sit for a year or two to learn more before becoming starter, but consensus has slowly shifted towards it being more important for him to get in-game reps.

Should be interesting to see how he performs.

This is the second year in a row the Bengals have had a fight at a joint practice, but it seems like a Packers player started this. One player does say this would never happen in a game but practice is a little different because there’s no consequences. I think this is a good example that there probably should’ve been consequences for Aaron Donald last year, that was definitely over the top and that would make players think twice about it.

I recently tried out Top - 6 Hours for my default sort instead of Hot and liked it but felt I didn’t use the app enough and was missing things. Because of this, I decided to try out Top - Day. However, when setting it as the default sort or setting it manually on the feed page, it says there’s no posts. The same thing happens for Top - 12 Hours. Unless I’m misunderstanding, it doesn’t make sense for posts to appear in the 6 hour version but not the 12 hour or day version. I also tried a couple other Top timeframes and they seemed to work fine. Am I doing something wrong or is this a bug? I didn’t see anything in the list of issues.

He had a pretty good year with the Ravens last year. He should be able to still produce some since Brian Burns will probably be taking most of the heat.
