2022 NFL Gameday Thread: C’mon Damar (Part 1)

Oh, yeah, that’s definitely true.

Not sure whether to laugh or cry when the Dolphins lose at home to the Kenny Pickett led Steelers. After getting spotted 13 pts.

Collinsworth doesn’t realize that making it a two score game is part of the analytics.

Also when you just got stuffed and your RB is Chase Edmunds.

Really glad Tomlin didn’t go for it there. They were probably 80% to convert. Dolphins are so trash.

that’s a COWARDLY punt there tomlin

Like third OPI I have seen today.

Man these models really do love a good go for it on fourth down lol

tua just led with his head

good lord he’s gonna die

eventually we’ll get some coach who played a seasons worth of games every single day on madden who will go for it all the time and give all of sports radio listeners heart attacks
latter far bigger victory

We kind of had that with Staley last year.

The problem is with the first bad run of not converting - the media just descends on the coach, which causes the fans to also turn on him. It seems to have broken Staley into being too conservative this year.

Of course the sports punditry machine ignore the games SD won early in the year going for it in places no other coach would. Those were just lucky gambling. The bad run was his recklessness come home to roost.

oh sure Bill went for it by far correctly on SNF vs peyton like 15 years ago in his own territory and it didn’t work out and he got eviscerated for it and basically never did it again

And if he’d made it none of us would remember that play and no one would ever talk about it. Media creates their own reality.

He also did it in the first half and took a shot to the Head

I’d remember it, but yes nobody would’ve ever talked about it again

Few coaches in that era or before did that sort of thing

WP GO: 83.20000%
WP Kick: 83.20001%

Sports morons: “The data says that kicking is slightly better.”

Play by play guy: “You mean analytics?”

Sigh.

Dolphins running plays with a speed like they’re trailing when they’re up. This should work out well.
