Proudiddy's Observations

I think if today settled anything is that stupid argument between Williams and Stewart.

Stewart not any better than Williams. Any other excuses that our O-line just isn't cut up for runs up the middle? My only question is why do we KEEP running it up the middle?

Get Williams back in, screen plays.

But, once Cam threw for 300 some yards, I think the Packers understood we can throw, and we can throw it REALLY well... So, that's when you can get back to the run.

Except that by the time Cam threw for 300 yards, we were down two scores and had to come from behind, which is typically when you call more pass plays. That was not the time to keep calling up a broken run game.

Chud did try to run it. I could easily notice the difference after the first quarter. He was calling run plays, and it's what allowed GB to come back in the game. It just wasn't there. FIX THE O-LINE or CALL SCREENS TO WILLIAMS!

The roughing the passer call on Hardy was complete bullsh**

We got one of those too.

I'm with KK on this one... The difference was Hardy got to Rodgers within a tenth of a second after he released the ball and just hit through him. Bishop hit Cam after the ball was clearly out and gone and then picked him up and speared him into the ground.

Bishop's play was dirty, Hardy's was a football play, and that's not homer talk, it was obvious.

The screens would definitely be helpful if called more... And we saw how effective they were when we did run them.

As far as the "300" number I referenced as a good time to start running again... It was just a number, I didn't mean it literally... It could've been anytime late in the 3rd before the Nelson TD.

Once they started dropping 8 into coverage, we should've been running it right up the middle - dives, slams, iso, traps, whatever... It was there.

    • 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.
