re: Texans 14 @ Chiefs 23 Final - ESPN

I wasn't the original poster mentioning Spags adjustments in this particular game. Just responded to your comment on how obvious it was to call all out blitz.

Looking at the 3rd vs 4th quarter though, I'd say there were some adjustments because HOU moved the ball at will in the first 3 quarters and just couldn't capitalize on some drives.

He gets too much credit. Anyone can send all an out blitz on every 3rd down.


And yet most don't in that situation. That's where Spags comes into play with his adjustments and play calling.

They went out of their way to say how clean the hit was.
Any particular reason you are considering the Sapphire Preferred instead of the Reserve? The Sapphire Reserve is more targeted to folks looking at a card like the AMEX Platinum.

Max was ahead. Even the biased Sky announcers agree with it.

I've had Mint in Pittsburgh, Houston and all the small towns between Houston and Baton Rouge. Never had any issues with coverage. I'm not sure how rural some of these other responses are talking about but I've been very happy with Mint since I've had it.

Or L'Atelier Joel Robuchon. We are there last night. Definitely one of the best meals of my life.

We go out on a cruise here tomorrow and are staying at JW Marriott but that's because I have status with Marriott so it's just easy for me. I'm doing Uber to the cruise ship tomorrow.

I'd suggest looking into Ethiad and Emirates for flights. I've flown Emirates to Dubai and any of the middle eastern carriers will be significantly higher quality than what you're used to domestically.

What's the name of the cabins you're staying in? Looking at planning a trip sometime in 2023 and just started doing some research.
I would almost argue Gleason's blocked punt and TD against the Falcons after Katrina is pretty iconic for the Saints as well. Didn't win a Super Bowl obviously so that may knock it down a peg.
I'm curious about booking economy and upgrading with cash after being cheaper as well. That's been my experience with some flights on both United and Delta but I don't fly enough to know if that's the norm or if I was lucky.
Lost mine a week ago. Funeral was yesterday. I feel your pain. This has been tough!

They are fantastic so far. Had a few pairs for a 6 months or so and am replacing my Ex Officio with them.

George likely to win due to Ferrari miscues with LeClerc.

No way Merc let's Bottas make that call last year for example. The way Max finished that last stint though... It wouldn't have mattered. He was flying.
I stand corrected. Thanks for the update. That does sound like a pretty good deal for sure if you fly alot on SW.
They aren't offering a CP in that offer at all. Just highlighting that the 30k bonus makes it easier to get there in addition to the 2x points categories that I think are new. There are better SW card offers for CP as mentioned by other posters already.
I use Etrade and have never had problems getting approved for higher level options trading. I've never tried on Fidelity so I don't have experience there.
