He wasn't the problem imo

I can’t believe the Texans fired Slowik. They really had a bizarre offseason

It's just overall a massive pain in the ass for something that may or may not happen. You see games rescheduled for hurricanes. You don't see games rescheduled for scattered thunderstorms. It's a lot better to maybe deal with the possibility of an hour or two delay than it is to move the entire operation due to the chance of scattered thunderstorms. It's just part of the deal playing outdoors in the early part of the season. We only have a couple more weeks with it being a major issue.

Yeah probably the latter.

I assume the big reason they would be hesitant to flex for weather is less about the teams being able to pull it off and the TV/broadcast/money stuff coming into play

It's not just the corporations. Look at all the resources that go into planning for the traffic, etc. To snap your fingers at the last minute and bump a major D1 football game up a few hours is simple to say but it's a logistical nightmare. And predicting scattered thunderstorms a week out? I mean, we all watch the weather. Weather predictions a week out is like planning your finances around scratch off lottery tickets.

Smart coach. Good attitude too. Im a little shocked Bowles was able to find him as an OC after losing his OC the year before. For a deffensive HC to keep finding decent to good OCs is a huge hurdle. Look down at the Texans. The best DCs to HCs don't figure out thr other side very often and they can make a mess of it like that more often than not. I think we got the wrong one honestly. That is a quality HC or at least a guy who has a good chance of turning into one.

Probably not. But im not gonna give the billion dollar corporations the benefit of the doubt here. fug em. They should be able to watch the weather over the course of a week and make an educated decision. I have to do it in my line of work for logistics.

Yeah, I think you should at least be able to flex pending it’s done 24 hours out to avoid the really big and obvious.

We just won a game 30-0 with a QB half the people on here call the biggest bust ever. how do you know we aren’t?

The logistics of that can't be simple. Putting on a high level D1 football game is a massive multifaceted operation. Pretty damn hard to just wake up in the morning and say "hey, let's bump this whole thing up a few hours".

How about fug them both? Baker came in with an attitude problem. It wasn't a secret in Cleveland either. Wilks had a QB playing a DE on the scout team and hasn't stuck anywhere long so whatever is going on there it seems to be a thing. Right now Wilks is coaching a bottom 3rd D, one that was a top 3rd 2 years ago, so it's not even spilt milk people are crying over...not sure what it is but it isn't very good. I say that while still appreciating the post Rhule effort. Fug them both and the fact this team still can't beat Baker in Tampa is the only thing in all of this worth being upset about IMO.

These rain delays are getting old. They need to do a better job of watching the weather and flexing. Game starts at 745 and the thunder storms start at 8 in columbia today. Meanwhile you could move it to 330 and finish before they start. Makes going and sitting there awful before you even have to watch that excuse for an offensive line play. Edit: As I say that it looks like the weather has cleared up some..thank Allah for that. Point remains though /endrant

Directly. You can indirectly help facilitate as many outside NIL deals as possible. The perks you're talking about are essentially what are now simply NIL deals not directly coming from the school and they're legal now.

Allowable is the operative word here. If you think Georgia, Penn State and similar programs are only spending $20M on players, Eric Dickerson's Trans Am would like a word with you.

I gotta say Ima fan of subbing out Wallace for Moehrig and bringing in Ransom. I just wish we had a little more talent to rotate out Scott and Roseboom. They know the defense so I get the why ... Offensively, I'm holding out judgement until I see this unit with Coker. I've been seeing improvement weekly BUT we gotta figure out the pass rush. What do we have like 1 sack?

I don’t know I like a lot of the early games, the Duke / Syracuse game should be good. ND and Arkansas, don’t count out the razorbacks, UCS and Illinois

There were a number of factors but I think one that is overlooked is I don't think Baker was in a good head space here. He had just been rejected by the Browns and we were in disarray ourselves with Rhule soon to be on the way out and Fitterer was still our GM. It just wasn't mean to be. But we've also seen brief glimpses of bad Baker. I mean he was god awful when we played them in Charlotte last year. Everyone is back to praising Darnold too. I don't think that's built to last.

Stop. I'll take this offensive roster with Cam at QB over the roster Cam carried to a SB. Straight up. Greg Olsen is the only one I'd be losing off the 2015 roster that would have me saying "damn, that's gonna be hard to replace". *I should add Ryan Kalil to that list too but overall, I honestly think our current OL is at least as good as that one. That one had an edge inside and this one has an edge at OT.

Tetairoa McMillan arguably did much more with less as a collegiate. Relative to the problems that they played for, and the players that they played with, there is an argument that T-Mac was the better college football player.

Well he learned it from McVay.

I seem to remember the Falcons owner piping in noise on game days and it was obvious too , i think the Falcons assistant said that before the game

We might have that sweater from Dollar General

Many nfl qbs can throw it from the 50 …then there are those who know how to throw in rhythm and layers …velocity is very important in the nfl due to the closing speed of NFL CBs It simply cannot hang in the air i have not seen Young have those qualities at the NFL level. i dont care what he did in college, nfl is a different beast i read that the rookie WR Horn has been activated…the only true speedster on the roster. Let’s see what Canales calls The patriots are great against the run, not so much the pass my true feeling is either Young or Canales will not be in Carolina for the 2027 season. Young is too limiting on the playbook. They will keep him in year 4 and then trade him this season tells the tale

I don't see how this is hard to understand. Folks are dunking over Stroud regressing to Bryce levels while seemingly failing to understand that it's a lot more about Stroud regressing, not Bryce improving and at least Stroud has shown that he can be a high level NFL QB. And there's still that inconvenience of the reality that a LOT of Bryce's stats production comes in garbage time against soft zone defense because our opponent is nursing a big lead. The level of cope for some is just comical.
