  1. Sucks for tonight, but Darrisaw is way too important to rush back from injury.
  2. Rodgers was a pain in our side for many many years. That’s not how I wanted his Jets’ tenure to go. Brutal.
  3. I also expected this to be a win. The next month is tough sledding and we’ll have to steal a win from the Chargers or Chiefs at home. It’s going to be a rocky start… Who knows what Kwesi pivots to if we end up 1-6 to start the year.
  4. If the NFL had a metric like WPA this specific play would have the largest negative number for Jay Ward. Just inexcusable to do that and give them a free first down.
  5. Definitely wasn’t good today. But I’m not pressing the panic button yet. Tampa was the #1 rush defense by a wide margin last year and brought everyone back.
  6. The lack of OL depth being put to the rest already with no Darrisaw and no Bradbury.
  7. Offense has worked off the rust now too. Idk why we forgot Justin Jefferson existed for a quarter.
  8. The defense is looking much better.
  9. I’m with you. 10 wins and a division title. Until proven wrong, the Lions will always find a way to shoot themselves in the foot.
  10. I am under that belief too. I would guess both Buxton and Correa’s contracts are uninsured.
  11. Last season, the Guardians hammered the final nail in our coffin during the early September series. Feels good to be returning the favor this year. Stay hot, Twins!
  12. I was very skeptical of Lewis in 2019 when he was a sub .700 OPS player in AA. He’s done much better than I expected, but I’m still not ready to crown him a star. The sample size is still too small.
  13. Keuchel is either brilliant or brutal. We got brutal Keuchel tonight.
  14. Couldn’t agree more. It’s really sad to see and read about this is a fan. It has to be torturous for Buxton personally. It is probably time to look into the more “career saving” procedures… Unless he is set to retire this offseason.
  15. Admittedly, 2023 has been the most difficult year of my life so far professionally. Any advice from the crowd who’s experienced the highest of highs and lowest of lows?
  16. Ah, you met my cousin! Yep, that’s him alright.
  17. But he’s paid so much money! The AAV told me so 🙄
  18. He’s worth a hell of a lot more than $5 million this year, no? And it’s pretty easy to get out of the inflated back half of the contract. I don’t know what you were hoping for. It was Hockenson’s turn for a new deal and other TEs younger than him will be due for higher contracts. It’s just like QBs. At one point in time, Jimmy G was the highest paid QB in football and he was not close to being the best.
  19. The championship or bust folks IMO really underestimate the following decade of bad play in this scenario. I have almost zero memory of 2012-2014 Twins teams because I stopped watching them. The only thing I recall is the Silver Linings Star Tribune article to pay attention to the minors because the MLB club is hopeless.
  20. Hockenson’s deal is actually quite team friendly. https://x.com/therealforno/status/1697364873791844637?s=46&t=YdnB8yC6KsAGCRK6WIUWqg
  21. We could have scored 40 runs the past 2 games and I’d still be interested in 2 effective relievers available for pennies on the dollar.
  22. Whelp. No one is coming from the outside to save the season. Gotta roll with the same guys and hope it’s enough to win a playoff game.
  23. So basically, do we want to be Royals fans? Tough call. I would like to witness a sports championship in my lifetime. 1 year old me doesn’t exactly remember Jack Morris Game 7 in 1991. The following decade of 90+ losses would be enough for me to stop following the Twins all together.
  24. Some random hot takes I have about the upcoming season… The AFC is going to be a bloodbath. The East has 4 competitive teams, North and West has 3 for sure. I think the Bills are going to be a massive disappointment this year, missing the playoffs. Maybe even old friend Stefon Diggs forces a trade out of there. The Chargers and Browns show their true colors as a franchise, continuing to play below expectations. We will be talking about the Jaguars as a Super Bowl contender this year. Trevor Lawrence cements himself as the next QB discussed after Mahomes and Burrow.
  25. We will see what happens tomorrow. If i were the Marlins or Reds I’d pick up all of the pitching available.
