Men's American Football NFL 2021


Recommended Posts

Always....'interesting' to see this system in action every year. You play your godgiven talented ass off and are admired left and right as a fantastic talent, and your reward is being picked by the shittiest team in the league :p

 

At least it's pretty damn cool to see the Jaguars going not only for Lawrence but also the awesome Travis Etienne.

Yes, if Travis Etienne becomes the next Alvin Kamara like projected then Jax offense will look explosive. And they have the luxury of AFC South being a tire fire right now. Texans are a mess, Titans are limited to Derrick Henry carrying them on his back and God knows if Carson Wentz ever recovers to lift the Colts.

Not a huge fan of the Etienne pick.  They have a RB.  James Robinson was one of the better players on the team last year.  Sure, it's a nice story for Etienne and Lawrence to stick together, but the Jaguars had more pressing needs.  Although you're right, that division could be theirs for the taking sooner rather than later if Lawrence is the real deal.

Atlanta Falcons have traded WR Julio Jones to Tennessee Titans for picks.

 

Falcons are in rebuild mode and 32yo Jones will be a high-profile mercenary for a playoff contender. He is a Top 5 WR of the past decade but trending down due to age & injuries. He can still make a difference on the field even if he's not gonna post 1,000 rec yds anymore.

he's the perfect weapon to keep the defense honest and allow Henry to be even more devastating than he has been until now...

 

to me, now the Titans are legitimate SB contenders (if they can keep up with a healthy Mahomes on D)...

Four months later and it looks like Jax will suck major ass again. OL is terrible based on preseason action and Etienne is basically out for the year with a foot injury.

 

New England Patriots have cut QB Cam Newton today which means Mac Jones will be the starter.

    • Those are the national junior championships, national championships are in Steinkjer, starting tomorrow: FIS | Steinkjer (NOR) - Event Details - Cross-Country
    • Nice for them, but also kind of too bad they pick the exact same two as last time. Would have been nice to see Regina Martinez for example (although I'm not sure that would have been logistically possible, depending on how they're going to do the flag bearer thing in the first place).

    • One of my favorite songs from the early 2000s that I listened to on a cassette on my walkman      
    • For me 20 medals will be good. And if more there are? Super. However, I prefer not to get my hopes up too much, so as not to be disappointed later.
    • If you're still taking suggestions, I tought the following:   Team Madison format.   17 teams of 2 "riders", randomly drawn. Teams can be named for famous "endurance" track cyclists. 4 intermediate "sprints", one after a voting block, in which the top 8 teams will score according to this formula: (10, 8, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2 & 1). The order in which team score for a sprint are determined by the total number of "medals" won by both members of the team during the block. Ranking will be sorted according to the number of gold medals, then silver, then bronze. If there's two or more teams with same number of points, the medals of best individual performer of each team will be considered to break the tie. If the tie remains, then team's total points during the block will be used to break it. If the team fails to receive a single medal during each block, it will be considered to "lose lap" and 20 points will be substracted from their score. If the team fails to score at least 1 point during each block, it will be an automatic DNF for the team. If both members of the team get a medal from a single jury, it will be considered to "gain lap" and 20 points will be added to their score. A team can only win an additional lap per voting block. After the 4 intermediate, a "final" sprint will be recorded, in which points will be doubled (20, 16, 12, 10, 8, 6, 4 & 2). Ranking for the final sprint will take into account the total medals won during the event.   What do you think?
    • I don't medal pick, per se... I assign probabilities/expected-values and total them up. So I don't have a gold medal estimate... but if you want one, divide those numbers by three and you'll be pretty close!   I imagine Norway, Italy and Netherlands and maybe Canada will probably skew a bit higher on golds, and US, Germany, and Sweden will skew a little lower... so maybe: Norway - 14 US - 11 Germany - 11 Italy - 11 Canada - 10 Austria - 8 Netherlands - 8 Japan - 7 Sweden - 6 France.- 6   I was surprised seeing Italy come in that high, I was figuring 22-23, but I guess they've been do well on the World Cups. 
    • If you were to predict top- 10 for the number of gold medals, what would it look like?     For me, as an Italian, any result for Italy: +20 medals would be OK (if that will include 6-7 gold medals). The trauma of Turin 2006 is too great
    • Doesn't really help that two of the strongest countries in that particular sport are banned from the team event for well known reasons.
