Be sure to see how Adam Thielen was also open by 15 yards on that second TD, top of the screen. 

0-4 now

Did a bit of data analysis on Diaz a couple of weeks back, and it seems like the big issue is that, like a lot of guys who throw hard sliders this year, he’s lost the ability to consistently command his slider (seemingly due to the new ball), which is leading to hanging sliders (which get crushed) and guys sitting on…

You’re right according to the official rules:

Wait, doesn’t the batter have to make a good faith effort to get out of the way of the pitch?

Near as I can tell, there was no error charged on the play, which is one reason why errors are a nearly useless stat.

The more one player makes the less the rest make. The league pays all the players vaguely the same amount every year. If one player makes more, that means less of that percentage of revenue for every one else. If more money guaranteed and a player gets hurt, that means less money for those actually playing the games.…

You don’t see why would the players union would object?

I mean, those “catches” should have both been overturned (bears fan here, so I didn’t mind toooo much lol) so I can’t blame him too much for the challenges. And in the end, it didnt really matter as the Packers were in charge for the rest of the game.

That’s the thing. For something like this, I don’t even have a price. Because unless you change the rules and lock me in that room, I’m never making it the 30 days. If there is an avenue of escape, I will take it. So it’s less like asking me to wear a shirt every day for a year, and more like asking me to swim the…

Treinen is close, but I would say it depends on your roster. This absolutely makes sense given the A’s starters (bad) and relievers (good). If you have a really good starter to throw out there it absolutely makes sense to have him get as many outs as he can. When you go to the bullpen depends on the situation and the…

Or the Colts figured they should put Jacoby Brissett in there for a low percentage play that requires chucking the ball 70 yards. Not because they don't trust Luck's shoulder, but because Brissett has a cannon and there is absolutely zero finesse required for the play.

I know it’s never called, but if there was ever a time for rule 5.05(b), a 48 mph lob is it.

From what I’ve read on this case, the SCOTUS ruling would allow the feds to outlaw betting on amateur sports, or pro sports, or semi-pro sports. The feds just can’t tell states that they can’t legalize these things.

It sucks all the time.

When a player and a team cannot agree on a salary figure, the team will ignore the player by covering their faces with trays from a fast food restaurant. This is known as Arby tray shun.

I’m pretty sure it’s just LaVar in a series of ridiculous disguises that don’t work.

Andy Reid is a terribly underrated coach because his flaws are so obvious and so seemingly fixable, but the man knows what he’s doing on the sideline. He’s been a head coach for 19 years and has 16 winning seasons, his teams are usually quite strong, he schemes well (he almost always gives Belichick fits in their…

A counter point — I spent some time looking at Week 2 and Week 1 results to try to see if these low-scoring games are bad offenses, or good defenses. I also watched the games live and saw some terrible offensive play.

Watching the video above, you have to cut Bortles some slack....
