  1. I've watched a few of their games. It seems like they've forgotten how to run the ball. They only ran Hunt 4 times in the first half.

     

    According to Dungy and Harrison, they've reverted Smith back to a game manager AND have gotten away from the run. They just do a lot of short passes and gadget plays. 

  2. 10-team, small roster dynasty (15 spots), standard scoring QB, WR, WR, RB, RB, TE, WR/TE, WR/TE/RB, K, DEF

     

    QB - Mariota

    WR - A. Brown, M. Evans, OBJ, K. Allen, D. Parker, C. Davis

    RB - J. Ajayi, L. Fournette, K. Hunt, T. Rawls, E. Lacy

    TE - G. Olsen

    K - M. Crosby

    DEF - Hou

     

    It's a weird league. Small rosters irritate me, but we can never get enough votes to expand. This is my 5th year in the league. I inherited a terrible team. Through some good drafting and fortuitous trades I've managed to hoard most of the WR talent.

    I like big play defense, INT's fumbles, TD's etc.

     

    I find dominating defense a little boring though, If they just keep forcing the other team to punt, i might fall asleep on the couch.

     

     

    I came here to say something similar. I generally prefer watching a big play offense, but a big play defense full of sacks, fumbles  and INTs is similarly exciting.

     

    The grinding, dominant style defenses can make games seem incredibly long.

    None of the rest of us want you dressing like that and doing that for a living. :)

     

    Before my daughter was born I enjoyed looking at cheerleaders, since she's been born I always think.... "I wonder what their father thinks of that?"

    Cheerleaders don't do it for a living. They do it for fun. Cheerleader pay is very low.

     

    I had a professor at Purdue a few years ago that was a Colts' cheerleader. Obviously being a Ph.D. level professor and researcher doesn't typically require a side job. She enjoyed it.

  5. You know what's funny, after listening to Myles Garret talk (the 1st pick in this draft), I bet he would have been thrilled to have an orangutan announce him...or maybe someone dressed as a dinosaur.

     

    I think the gripe against Mayock is that he didn't take the opportunity to voice his mind against a Walking Dead commercial, an advertisement for Vegas, an advertisement for a golf course, or a ex-player turning the entire announcement into an opportunity to troll another team, but rather voiced it against an organization dedicated to conservation and learning. If I understand correctly, the zoo was asked to do this. He should have bashed the overall idea of spectacle...not the orangutan/zoo. He might have a point that the focus needs to be more on the players, but he made his point in an unprofessional way.

    No,  if he did Pittsburgh would have been given the ball

    I'm pretty sure he announced over the microphone, before the review, "Clear Pittsburgh recovery." That's why the announcers are so confused.

     

    And for clarity, I'm pretty sure I heard it too. I was on a separate tab so I wasn't watching, but I'm pretty positive I heard it.
