The smoky gray helmet is cool, but the rest is meh. I would take dark mode over it easily.

Agree. It’s all a huge step back from our traditional look though.

There is now a love letter to Nico in the ff. . .

Ooooof.

That’s creepy. Please tell me the OP is a 15 yr old girl

For real?

Yes for real. Did we have some receivers get open, of course it was Kent State. But, we also had Nico having to hold onto the ball for a long time due to our receivers not being open.

OUs DBs are going to be better than anyone we’ve faced so far and so will their DL so he is going to have less time to throw this week. Hopefully, our WRs can get separation so we don’t get holding penalties or sacks in the back field.

Will be a good game to see what we truly have on the OL and at our WR positions. (For the record I am hoping we were just working out the kinks) I think we beat OU no matter what though.

From the resident alternate jersey party pooper… Dark mode is elite. All else is not worth the change.

Dark mode should pull up a chair and stay a while. . . unless they starter making changes too it like they did the grays.

It would be cool to see them do an away alt like the one earlier, but with the mountains from the gray helmets. Just make the helmets white, like they're snow covered.

I have been having trouble keeping up with tasks at work. I decided to try a dry erase board. It's a very remarkable invention.

Well looks like Philadelphia with that glorified RB at QB is going to win tonight, lost a little cash on this one.


I hate the Eagles and those ugliest puke green uniforms they wear.

I get anxious in a skyscraper, even if there are no windows visible. It's weird. I'm not really scared like I think something bad will happen. I just get really dizzy feeling and shaky legs, jittery hands, etc. It's weird because I'm not scared in my mind, but my body is. Hard to explain if it doesn't happen to you.

You wouldn’t like my office view then. Top floor, 380’ in the air, on a building design that’s not used anymore.

 

[engineerVOL]

Creative. I like it.

I'd be alright after being up there a while or going up there everyday. It's the sudden change in height that gets me.

Is the real estate commission in your building?

May not always be an option, but facing bright light (sun preferably) with eyes closed, while breathing. Magic.

I'll try it!

Whoa, Mr. Top Floor, we see! (Just kidding.) Nice digs.

To me, it’s Nico’s awareness and speed of reads. He missed a wide open Bru on the first or second drive. Tried to force a couple passes that woulda been picked off by better DB’s. Didn’t matter, but it could in a big game. His skill level is sky high, but he still hasn’t put it all together yet. He makes up for it by insane accuracy on long throws.

He's not Hendo ‘22 yet. It’s coming tho. When it does, we’re gonna be unstoppable.

He was very inaccurate overall Saturday.

From watching in the stadium, Nico had an open receiver on about every play. My opinion, but he telegraphed and didn’t work through his progressions. That’s not on the receivers. That’s just inexperience on his part. The game still has to slow down for him.

No, General Services, TDOT, TPAC, and one or two more. We’re about to move over to the Tn Tower, which is the white one on the right, pictured in my office view. Sadly, I’m going down in elevation by 2-3 floors.

Here’s a good thread. Would speak to why most qbs haven’t eclipsed 250yds in a game through 2 weeks

That was good information. I was thinking about and almost posted that it seemed like offenses were not popping yet this year. Has yielded some closer games. QBs have not been lighting it up.

Yeah that could possibly be it too. Maybe he was just doing that because of the opponent. Again, I’m excited for the game this week and I hope we are firing on all cylinders.

Does anyone know what the best mosquito zappers are and how they work? Or what is best?

If you want real solution and don't want chemicals get some of the cells like below. They work. I personally fog with proflex and that works well, but it isn't for everyone.

Yeah I’d like to find how often the under has hit this year so far too

 

[jave36]

How'd that ultra prevent defense work Philly? Safeties 40 yards down the field giving up 20 yards per play?

 

[Brillovol]

Yeah that could possibly be it too. Maybe he was just doing that because of the opponent. Again, I’m excited for the game this week and I hope we are firing on all cylinders.

I would like to see more checkdowns to RB’s and TE’s to keep the safeties and LB’s honest. Do that and more will open up. We seemed to be just a two-layered offense. I chalk that up to vanilla play calling and semi-lazy play.

I think this is it?
