LaFell, tipped ball leading to a pick and key drops, despite good run blocking.

 

Bell, poor run blocking at 3rd and 4th and short and giving up sacks in the 3rd quarter.

 

White, poor coverage on Boldin. UDFA from Lousiana LaFayette should not be covering a Super Bowl winning WR. Norman or Thomas would have done better.

 

Honorable mention goes to Captain, but only because we used him incorrectly as a #1 or #2 corner, when, because of his height, he should only play the nickel.

 

 

Those are my thoughts on that game and this team moving forward. I think these are the weakest links on our team, and they need to be addressed. Now, I'm going to do my best to forget this game while still remembering what a good season this has been.

lol LaFell?? That was a terrible throw. Bell, along with the Oline overall played as well as they could considering the situations they were out in. And I think our whole secondary got exposed today. If anything I was really disappointed in our pass rush today, Hardy and Johnson were essentially non-existent

      Experience with Electric Vehicles?

      By d-dave · Posted

      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.
