So why is what you take out of it valid, and what I take out of it not?We were discussing it because you can take things out of a single game, like as BB suggested, do the guys improve when you correct them. The fact that they improved after one series and a correction on the sidelines says great things about their ability to adjust and adapt. You chose to ignore anything like that, instead harping on 4 plays that you didn't like.
You focussed on adjustments made by backups.
I focussed on the high amount of very bad plays (plus the first drive as well).
Which is a more telling dynamic? If guys who will be on the bench adjust during a game or if a more aggressive defense gets ripped through very frequently?
I didn't call them excuses. I said that I wasn't discussing how they adjusted, I was discussing how well they played. You used 'we were happy with adjustments' to say BB disagrees with my opinion the run d wasn't good. Thats not accurate.I was ready to drop it but when BB talked about it specifically in his EEI interview I thought it was worthy of mention. But instead you play semantics "Bill never said he was happy with the overall run D". No but he specifically mentioned how important it was how quickly they adjusted and didn't make the same mistakes, which is what you are looking for from backups in pre-season game number 1 after no off-season. But again, those are 'excuses' to you.
I'm not upset, I just don't get why people need to toss personal insults at someone because they disagree. (You made a bunch of other personal comments as well) Silly I think was refering to your point, not to you.And are you really going to get upset at 'tool'? Please, it's like saying you're being a goof. You called me silly earlier, should my panties have become bunched at that?
Just something that sticks out to me, insulting the person doesnt have any value in discussing their opinion.
What huge pronouncement? I said the run d wasn't good that day. How is that a huge pronoiuncement?You try to make huge pronouncements based on next to zero evidence and then get upset when people call you out on it.
That is just untrue.You've been insisting since day 1 of camp that BB would never even consider moving away from a 3-4 2-gap even as evidence to the contrary piles up and you finally halfheartedly admit that they played a little under.
First I have said I would be surprised if BB changes his long held philosophy. (I still will be if he starts the season that way) I never insisted he wouldn't do it.
How is going back and looking at the game again and stating what I saw, "halfheartedly admitting" something? And I didn't say they played a little under. I said the definitely lined up in 43 under and from the TV view it appeared they one gapped on the weak side and 2gapped on the strong side.
Why do you insist on changing my comments when you refer to them?
I said that they were lined up in 43 under alignment which is shaded, and even described it. How can me saying the exact same thing as BB make me wrong?BB talked in his Monday presser how they weren't lining up straight up on the OL, but shading them instead. In short you were wrong about that to.
Thats on you. I have never said anything like I am right and noone else can be. I give my opinion. If its what I believe I am not going to change it because someone else has a different viewpoint. You can be right or wrong about facts. You cant really be right or wrong on opinion. I am confident that my opinions are well supported or else I don't post them. You seem to have that confused with arrogance.I wouldn't even care but you make many of your posts with this air of 'I'm Right' finality that can be obnoxious.
Not sure what you mean. I'm calm as can be. If someone disagrees with my opinion, I am going to discuss and/or defend it. I can't help the level people want to take it to. I will likely respond and continue to explain my point, there is nothing to lighten up about. You sound like its a fight, competition, or something to get angry about. I just dont see it that way.And believe it or not, I like you Andy. I've been around in various forms since the dark days when that scumbag who started Jets Insider was here making trolling an art form and defended you against him on more than one occasion.
But seriously dude, you need to lighten up.
