We're just not quite at that level of team just yet.

Thank you for proving my point.  

In this conference, with this talent, with this year's schedule, this team should be to that level. 

If you're fine being 8-5 or 9-4 every year, thats cool.  That's just not what I expect from a team with this caliber of talent, in a subpar conference with an insanely favorable schedule.

You're being delusional. We were 2-9 and haven't had a losing season with Mack yet. We're 6-1 and recruiting well. If we lose 4 or 5 games then we can have a different conversation.

If you think this team has legit top 10 talent you're lying to yourself. A big part of Mack's success this go around is landing two legit NFL caliber QBs. We've largely been overachieving versus our overall talent level.

If we played in the SEC, I'd agree.  Minus Clemson (and maybe Duke) this season, we are 2 TDs better than everyone on our schedule.  The loss to UVA is unacceptable on so many levels, but mainly coaching and preparation. 

Let's re-assess in 5 weeks.  No point in pissing and moaning amongst ourselves until the season plays out.  If we go 12-1, win the ACC title and I get to go to Miami again I'll be fine with that.

The refs just cheated Kansas out of a turnover and Oklahoma scores a TD

Refs should not be hired by the conferences. There's just way too many financial incentives to get a team into the playoffs. There's just way too many extremely questionable flags benefitting playoff contenders in-conference every single year. Maybe going to 12 teams will help clean up some of that incentive.

But honestly, a lot of times it does feel like straight up game rigging for the teams with playoff aspirations.

      Week 6 PFF grades vs. DAL

      By CRA · Posted

      PFF feeds the beast.  So it’s largely popular for that IMO and is embraced by the NFL machine because it helps feed the beast.  Thats why you see the cute stats pop on the Monday Night football screen lol.  Hot takes? Fantasy football? Yeah, it’s good for the NFL machine for lots of reason.  I do think the league embraces them.  Not because they are actually good at doing what they claim. actual analytics folks are critical of PFF.  Because it’s not analytics.  It’s subjective goobly goo ratings by dudes that aren’t really qualified nor even have the info to do real grading.  you got legit NFL players who say they have literally put PFF grades by the coaches grades and they are worlds apart.  Players have laughed at them pretending they can grade certain plays without the underlining info.  NFL coaches have called out there bologna at pressers.   could it be a quick tool to find out some info that has nothing to with their subjective grades? Sure.  There is a lot of data on 32 teams for cheap. But I do not buy the narrative 32 NFL teams think their grades are worth a poo or remotely accurate or meaningful.

      Can we get to 9-8?

      By PootieNunu · Posted

      I think that win vs Dallas gave them a big boost of confidence.  Thats a team that blew us out the past 2 seasons. Even when Bryce was playing okay late last season they still beat us pretty bad.  Lets see if we slaughter the Jets or go back to playing sloppy uninspired football and go from there.
