Jake Delhomme at his Best

YOu know it is funny, it is sad that it is true. LOL

sorry jaymad, i do not believe you can shoot down a single prop plane with an arrow

i do not believe you'd have the necessary force behind an arrow, traveling directly against gravity, to either penetrate the glass or metal to injure the pilot and induce a wreck or significantly damage the mechanical apparatus of the engine.

you are mistaken sir. sorry you suck at physics.

Jake must be a pretty good shot to take down an entire airplane with only six arrows. and a duck. and he hit that guy right through the heart with one shot, and killed a grizzly with just two.

damn fine shooting, let's hope he does the same thing against the falcons secondary.

...ass.

actually, one of the arrows could've pierced the right aileron cable and taken it down that way, but the rest would've caused only surface damage at best.

yes but that would have simply resulted in a loss of horespower in the engine, and any capable pilot would have been able to land that plane, especially since jake was apparently firing arrows from the elysian fields

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
