2016 Opponents Set


Montsta

A week before the season started, just about every team we were scheduled to play this season was licking their chops at the chance to beat us and look how that turned out for them.  Trying to figure anything out right now is a waste of time.

And once again we play Seattle in Seattle. What the fug is the deal with that

Yeah 3 years ago they had to play here so now it reverses.   We just keep winning the division and so do they in between these 3 years.

The funny thing of note is that we play all 3 teams interested in moving to LA. I was in LA last week. I can count the nfl items I saw on one hand.  I've had more conversations about the panthers in one day in calgary today than I did the whole time I was in LA.  Pity the fanbase that moves there... but I wouldn't mind a roadtrip if we play them.

I think I'll go to the Denver game

Great stadium. Just do not sit in the high rows unless your in decent shape.   It really is a bit taxing walking up and down in thin air and will curb your beer intake.   If our current trend of drops continues into next year though.... you'll have nightmares of hearing IN COM PLEEEEETTE.

From Peter King's MMQB column regarding next year's Christmas schedule. Make your travel plans accordingly:

for those who have wondered what the NFL will do with Christmas landing on a Sunday next year, and it being the Sunday of Week 16, I’ll use history as my guide. The last three times Christmas has fallen on a Sunday—in 1994, 2005 and 2011—the NFL played 14, 13 and 13 games on Saturday that weekend. (In 2005, there were two on Sunday and one on Monday. In 2011, there was one on Sunday night and one on Monday.) And I’m told in all likelihood the NFL will keep the same plan for 2016, playing most of that weekend’s games on Christmas Eve, a Saturday.

    • He's not wrong though. You talk like a politician on here. Leaving yourself just enough wiggle room to say you never fully counted Bryce out if you need to....But we can all see it. Just say you think he is a bust outright and you will have to type a lot less. Obfuscating your opinion behind QB3 competitions etc....
    • Most EVs are in the 90+ e-MPG meaning some measurement house somewhere compares the EV to a similar ICE model and works out how much is costs to charge (on average) versus fill up as a point of comparison. Talking long term, in the hundreds of thousands of miles?  No clue.  Some early signs are that EV batteries maintain 80% charge over 400k miles.  So there's that.   The challenge and charm of an ICE vehicle is being able to park it under a tree, get your jack stands out and tinker with your engine.  There's just not that same level of complexity in an EV.  I saw someone estimate there are 200 or so moving parts in an EV, and 2000 in an ICE vehicle.  I'm not a part counter so I can't really speak to that. I think that the EV is more the future than any type of combustion engine.  Those will still be around in specific purposes, but for most people - an EV will be the superior option in terms of efficiency.  I say that as someone who loves stupid horsepower numbers out of turbo 4 bangers and inline 6s...  I am one of those tinkers when I can be. A bigger issue for EVs is going to be the ownership versus lease.  Right now, there are INSANE leases on EVs, which is great, but what do you have at the end of that lease?  Nada, maybe some equity if you're lucky.  Where as I'm almost done paying for my car, and plan to keep it until the wheels fall off (or my son wrecks it when he starts to drive).  Will EV makers do the smartphone thing and build in planned obsolesce?  Stop updating software?  I love the tech in EVs, and I think getting more cars and trucks off the road is a good thing.  But I am still just a little concerned.  Capitalism has gotten far too extractive.
