Imagine treating a bowl game like a real game in the year of our lord 2025.

Phenomenal movie. Extremely uncut gems. Chalamet was fantastic, the true successor to “a-hole Leo” from Wolf of Wall Street and Blood Diamond.

Glad Raya committed his once in every five games mega frickup while we were up 4-0 in stoppage time.

Feels like it really all comes down to having Gabi and Saliba fit. When they’re the two CBs we look like by far the best team in Europe. If we lose one we just look like one of the best teams.

Expected goals finally reverted to the norm for both teams.

Man City has been riding it too, albeit not as much as Villa. It’ll come for them too.

If the dolphins don’t run back the two point try we would be in contention.

Shades of 2016 when we had a go ahead PAT blocked and returned for two in the last minute (against either broncos or panthers I believe) that cost us the game and we ended the season one spot out of contention going into the final week.

Hopefully history repeats itself and 2026 is like 2017.

Solak is one of the Ringer NFL nerd alums obsessed with QBs “potential” and athleticism and arm strength over the ability to play the position. Same group of guys that have said Herbert and Lamar are way better than Burrow over the last 5 years.

If they were around in 2011 they would’ve said Cam Newton and Matt Stafford were better than Brees.

Going Cam Ward over Shough is an incredibly on brand take for that crew

It really goes to show how many “easy throws” are as much a result of good qb play/good play calling as they are bad defense. Shough’s arm talent, but more importantly his decision making and processing, is head and shoulders above Rattler and that’s leading to a lot of easy looking throws.

Then there’s the added component of Moore having more and more faith (no pun intended) in his QB which is allowing for more confident and consistent playcalling, especially in the red zone.

Baker kind of sucks. Every offensive coordinator with a pulse knows how to beat his defenses. Just spam TE and running QB

re: I mean….do we really care about this loss?

Ehh I think we have a real reason to be concerned about Baker

Has Baker ever had a good game against a good team

It’s not quite to the point where all our eggs are in the Havertz basket, but the best the team has looked under Arteta, at least offensively, was calendar year 2024 with Havertz fully bedded in as the 9. Havertz basically didn’t play in 2025 but should be back for the second half of this season.

With the caveat that he may need time to bed back in after injury, I’m not going to panic on the attacking front until we see the attacking shape with him back in the mix

- it’s seven sacks.
-he missed five games.
-he has very good pressure rate stats (more important stat than sacks).
-No coincidence that six of Cam’s 8.5 sacks have come since Young started playing. Other D-linemen as well. Young is someone other teams have to account for which frees up other guys, and his pressures cause the QB to try to scramble leading to cleanup sacks.
-you have no idea how positional value works in the NFL. $17m for an above average d-end is an incredibly good contract. And Young has been borderline elite since he came back from
Injury.

I mean everyone on LIV except Bryson has become irrelevant. That’s the whole thing.

Also agree about Bryson and YouTube. It’s funny I’m sure he sells it to LIV as a positive, I.e look at how popular I am and I’m on your tour. But he’s on YouTube so much that no one needs to go watch him on LIV. All his fans just watch him on YouTube. It’s kind of a problem when your most popular player doesn’t draw any increased eyeballs to your product
