If Vance is "weird", does that mean the Democrat is psychotic?

Right, that's fine. But isn't there a huge democrat platform about police reform because 10 black people (out of 14M), a year get killed by cops?

You didn't say that this issue isn't a big deal? You didn't say that the small number out of 8 million is miniscule and not worth worrying about?

That you're a hypocrite. Thanks for proving it. As long as your side is for it, that's all that matters. Got it.

States rights? Imagine that! Who'd a thunk it???

Now do 10 out 14M and why that DOES require a national movement?

Screw'em. They should see the lightning before we do!!

Then why were liberal mayors/governors complaining when conservative mayors/governors were sending them illegal immigrants?

If they can't afford a down payment and can't afford to pay interest... how are they going to afford the property tax?

14M black people in the country... 10 were killed by cops... Libs: We NeEd JuStIcE!!! Libs: SyStEmIc RaCiSm!!! Libs: DeFuNd the PoLiCe!!! I know, I know... it's (D)ifferent. focking sheep

Find someone who's in college and give them the $200, and have them sign up for the Sunday Ticket on YouTube. Every game, every week (except market games), for only $11+ a week. If you live in the Giants market, don't do this, obviously. Waste of money as the Giants games will be blacked out.

The whole CBA crap from 2011 caused this. Prior to that, starters played the first quarter of the first 2 games, the first half of the 3rd game, and none at all. Also before that, practices were harder on the players. The idea of the new CBA was to make it safer for the players. That all the contact broke down their bodies and they missed a lot of games. There have been no studies done since then, that proved they were right. There was one that proved it accomplished nothing.

To update my prior post, I think Irving clearly is the backup and Sean Tucker is a JAG and he and Edmonds will be getting scraps. I expect a similar workload from White and from Irving, I'd expect him to give White a spell here and there. If I had to put a number on it, I'd say that we should expect about 20 touches a game, similar to last year. I can see Irving getting about 6 and the rest of the backfield getting 1 or 2. I think the line will be slightly better and I think the play calling and game planning will be exceptionally better (Jonathan Brooks [dynasty] owners should be worried - Dave Canales issue, not a Brooks issue). To put a number on it... I'd say White has 275 carries at 4.1 ypc with 8 TD and 50 receptions for 450 yards and 2 TD's. I think his fantasy numbers should be similar to last year. In my money league last year, he finished with 269.9 points... I think he'll be around that this year. My projections total 267.75. Where that ranks... Last year, the Bucs ran a lot of plays where they're designed and encouraged to run up the middle. That won't happen this year. Last year, the blocking scheme was very vanilla where guys are told to push straight ahead. That won't happen this year. Dave Canales in his first year as an OC, was terrible. We'll have to see if he does better as an OC. I think the Bucs will be a 7-win team, hence, losing more often than last year. With that, comes more pass attempts. I think Mayfield throws the ball about 625 times, compared to 566 last year. Here's the thing. If by some chance I'm wrong about the 7 wins and they win like, 9 or more (I doubt it, because, well, we have Baker Mayfield), I think the projections stay the same, the numbers will just come in the earlier parts of the game and not garbage time. From a WR/passing game perspective... last year, Godwin and Evans were on the outsides and ran their routes from the side they lined up on, the vast majority of plays. That won't happen this year. Expect Evans and Jared McMillan to be on the wings with Godwin in the slot (on Evans side more often than not), the bulk of the time. That happened 32% of the time last year. Expect that number to be closer to 50 to 55% this year... possible way higher. In 2019, Godwin was WR2 and lined up in the slot 50% of the snaps. In 2020 and 2021 he lined up in the slot over 55% of the time. In 2020, he missed 4 games, but his fpg ranked as WR15... with Gronk and Brown on the team. In 2021, he was WR15 in total points (missed 3 games), he was WR8 at 17.9 fpg. I expect Jared McMillan to be quite involved, more involved than Palmer was as the WR3 last year. Palmer got 68 targets, only 39 receptions. I think McMillan gets closer to 80 targets and pulls in about 55. Palmer will probably be around 45 targets and 20 receptions and used primarily as the "go deep" guy.

Fair enough.

Cardiovascular disease is twice as likely to kill someone than cancer. If we're picking and choosing which to toss off the island, why not that one? I'm going to guess it's because that one didn't affect you, but cancer did.

Yup. I think I did total yards, then added receiving back in again. LOL Good catch.

By top heavy, I meant that top half (or better), of the draft. That's all. Fair enough. I just think that waiting for someone to get hurt is a significantly riskier move than a starting RB. Yeah, I'd expect those two to be there... they should be. One is coming off an ACL tear and the other is a backup who will only start (based on history), 4 games. Very high risk. I wouldn't take either of those two until like 11th or 12th rounds as my RB5 or something.

So yes, you want to pick and choose what "bad" we have. YOU want to be God or Jesus. Just because a certain bad thing exists, it's not definitive proof that God (or Jesus), doesn't exist or not exist. It just is. Apparently, you want the job.

Agreed.

So you just want to pick and choose what "bad" we have? Murder is fine... but not cancer?

You can't have good without bad. Even in science, that exists. If there were no bad, then what's the point of anything?

Last year, that would be RB19. That's a mid RB2 that you're getting right now at mid to high RB3.

That's fair, I don't see it that way. I see a bunch of JAG's that are going to get touches here and there and I think Elliott will get every chance to be productive. I think he'll be fine. I see him getting around 215 carries and I believe he can get 4 ypc. I can see 1000 total yards and 10 TD's and be in the mid-to late 20's as a decent RB3. Dowdle last year barely hit 4 ypc by 6 yards. It's not like he was around 4.5 ypc. Even in a crappy year with a crappy line and crappy team, Elliott was able to hit 3.5 ypc. Ok, you're a top heavy RB guy. That's fine. You're taking your 4th RB before people are taking their 3rd. I have no issue with that strategy. Most people apparently don't follow that because we're seeing, the majority of rosters are still drafting RB3's by the completion 9 (based on adp), where you're past that point 2 rounds earlier. You're also playing a more riskier game though. Benson, at best, is getting scraps until Connor gets hurt... which he probably will, he always does. On top of that, he's playing with a QB who absolutely will vulture TD's. I don't understand your inconsistency on this. You think that Benson could be a RB1/2 while playing with Murray who will run and will steal rushing TD's, but you think that Hurts will run less and steal less Murray TD's from Barkley, yet he won't be a RB1 playing the whole year as the lead back. Also, both Chubb and Brooks are coming off ACL's. That virtually never goes well... on top of that, this is Chubb's second ACL tear. You're looking to take guys like that in Round's 5 through 7? No issues with the guys in R's 12-14... they're always shot's in the dark. I wouldn't fault anyone from taking anybody in those rounds.

Free Will.

Jesus believes in Free Will. He doesn't control anything, hence, he would not need to "have done a better job". It's probably why most true Christians are Republican's. Democrats want to control people.
