re: If LSU plays MVB instead of a “hurt” Nuss how many games do we win?
Posted by tigerfan88 on 11/15/25 at 3:16 pm to 7Tiger7
lol we beat a 2-7 team by one at home with two turnovers and a goal line stop.
MVB was fine but nothing indicated we win any of our losses with him starting

It’s exactly how he’s acted with the LSU law professor firing, how he acted with Tate, how he acted with his Ten Commandments in school.
This is exactly how state institutions under his control have consistently acted in his tenure.
Love all the downvoters mad that Landry is getting called out for acting exactly like everyone knew he would and how he told you he would act if elected governor

Most likely. Who else would be making that decision for LSU? Landry has already outright said how involved he is.
It’s also just right out of his playbook

re: Brian Kelly Files Suit Against LSU

It’s not the original contract we’re saying reeks of Landry, but rather LSU’s actions and strategy in executing his firing and the firing of Scott Woodward, the hiring of the interim AD and president, and our handling of Kelly’s buyout.
We already know Landry was intimately involved in firing Kelly and Woodward. He made it clear that he was going to politicize the buyout and making sure it wasn’t paid by taxpayers.
Now we’re refusing to pay Kelly’s buyout and claiming he wasn’t ever actually fired and Woodward actually superseded his authority and wait there’s this cause notice provision….it reeks of Jeff Landry getting way too involved in the firing process and not knowing what he was doing and now trying to untangle the mess he made. He’s also an obstinate blowhard who wants to be Trump so it’s right out of his playbook to be ok with making this ugly and trying to fight Kelly in public.
Shocker it’s why governors don’t get directly involved in the coach hiring and firing process

Allen is maybe the most optimistic comp as far as a tall, big-armed, relatively athletic pocket passer who never really managed to produce in college at the level you would expect based on their talent and nfl draft hype.

The bigger issue for the falcons is the cousins/penix debacle. Penix is barely good enough to be a good pick if you factor in getting to take advantage of the first round qb contract.
They can’t do that because of cousins. Between that and Bryce young wild the saints may have the second best qb situation in the dicision

It helps that McVay is maybe the best coach in the league.
No different than QBs, some players are going to be stars or busts just based on their own abilities and mindsets, but there’s a bunch of guys in the middle who if they go to a good team with coaches who know how to use them and actually coach them up they’re going to be much better.

re: Shough with a worse stat line and QBR
Posted by tigerfan88 on 11/10/25 at 10:30 am to whatiknowsofar
It’s called complimentary football. It works both ways. We also scored ten points in our first two possessions to get the lead, how often did we do that with rattler?
Also you can say the saints won the two games they held the opposition under 20 points, but we’ve also won the only two times we’ve put up over 300 yards total offense with zero turnovers.
Separately if you can’t admit that just on pure eye test Shough is clearly better than Rattler then you’re too biased to be taken seriously. Does it mean shough is the long term answer? No we’re far from knowing that yet, but at least he might be. We know rattler isn’t

Carolina is not significantly worse on defense than the Bears/Patriots/Bucs where we a complete disaster on offense.
You’re ignoring how important consistently moving the ball and not having turnovers and three and outs helped the defense.
Yeah we only scored 17 points (would’ve been 24 if not for kneel downs) but we also had 400 total yards (our previous high was 330 versus the Giants), no turnovers, and only two three and outs. That helped out the defense immensely as far as TOP and field position.

Comparing fully realized AGI (as described by its proponents which could be bullshite to increase their stock price) to cameras and phones is like comparing nuclear bombs to machine guns and cruise missiles. No weapon ever developed by man could put the entire species at risk….until we developed one.
re: Is Bo Nix really that much better than Ratt/Shough??
Posted by tigerfan88 on 11/8/25 at 2:51 pm to Orndorf2
Nix has one of the best O-lines in football, two starting level RBs, 4-5 legitimate starting talent receiving threats, and a defense that gives him short fields and a ton possessions bc it’s the best in the league.
Point being it’s hard to say, it’s kind of similar to Sean going 6-0 with teddy bridgewater in 2019. Nix may not even be a starter level talent and it would be hard to tell because of how much support he has.
But he’s also the QB of an 8-2 team and has had some big moments and some good games.

It was impressive to hold off Gabi and get it on target for sure but he ended up having an open net. Raya took himself completely out of the play.
Watch it again the more you do it’s a pretty egregious error from Raya. There’s no power on the flick from the forward and it’s just a little bloop towards the middle of the goal.
Arteta will be livid with him.

Pretty bad mistake by Raya on the second goal. You’ve gotta get that if you come for it. That’s a nothing little flip right to him if he just stays in goal.

Damn we were due one of these games. Expected goals Arsenal 2.04 - Sunderland .44.
They outperformed their expected goals by 1.5. If you’re gonna have a game like that third game in a row on the road against an in form side isn’t a bad place to have it

The attacking injuries are wild. Down 6 of probably the top 8 players in the front four positions.
Thank goodness they didn’t sell Trossard like a lot of the fanbase wanted and picked up Eze with what seemed like a bit of a luxury signing. Best ability is availability.

Our back half of the schedule is much easier than the front. First 9 games had 7 games against playoff teams. Second 8 games have one playoff team, the Bucs.
Small sample size but if we go continue to go .500 against non-playoff teams we’ll end up with 4-5 wins which is where most had us.

We’ve been an incredibly mediocre program since 2012. Averaging 4-5 losses a year outside of 2019. So maybe not that crazy.
Outside of the ten year stretch of Saban and Les riding the Saban effect for 5-6 year this is who we’ve always been outside of a magically random 2019.

re: Since Joe Flacco taking over, the bengals are the highest scoring offense in the NFL
Posted by tigerfan88 on 11/5/25 at 11:13 am to UnluckyTiger
Let’s see if Flacco keeps this up all season. This is the same guy who had maybe the best four game post season run of all time in 2012 only to be almost unplayable a couple years later. Then comes out of nowhere to play at an MVP level with the browns a few years ago and then lose his job.
Flacco has some Nick Foles in him for sure, he gets hot but struggles to sustain it.

Conversely the jets had three young blue chip players and are just as bad as we are.
At least we aren’t wasting talented players by not surrounding them with a good supporting cast like the Jets or Bengals or cowboys. Small silver lining
