Week 18: Last Ride Against the Gang(G)rene

[Harry Hooper]

He flipped it, not a spike.

 

[fiskful of dollars]

I like EE. I hope he comes back.

 

[mostman]

How close is close enough for Ryland to hit a FG in this weather?

 

[luckiestman]

What are the Ryland predictions? Can he miss from this close?

 

[BigSoxFan]

Pats are really taking care of the ball well today. Just an observation.

 

[E5 Yaz]

I like EE. I hope he comes back.

He doesn't

 

[luckiestman]

How close is close enough for Ryland to hit a FG in this weather?

oh wow, great minds

 

[Harry Hooper]

Nice snag by Harris on a poor throw.

 

[Ferm Sheller]

Pats are really taking care of the ball well today. Just an observation.

Except for the two near picks.

 

[GPO Man]

Why does it sound like Chris Myers is calling a Nascar race?

 

[BigSoxFan]

Except for the two near picks.

Sigh…

 

[jsinger121]

Huge drop

 

[The Mort Report]

LT jumped so bad

 

[MiracleOfO2704]

Gesicki doing his part.

 

[mostman]

I just went through all the emotions at once.

 

[fiskful of dollars]

NFL TE= TD

 

[JOBU]

Come the fuck on

 

[Mystic Merlin]

That ball hung up there forever

 

[Petagine in a Bottle]

More like Mike Gesucki am I right

 

[DeadlySplitter]

Clutch drop

 

[luckiestman]

Gesicki hands, not sticky

 

[Gash Prex]

Ryland tried pretty hard to miss

 

[GPO Man]

Gesicki wants Daniels

 

[Harry Hooper]

Huge drop

Did not use his large frame to shield off the ball at all.

 

[EddieYost]

He tried

 

[mostman]

Huh. He had possession when he landed.

 

[Brohamer of the Gods]

The DB had his arm in there, so nice play.

Also, if Zappe has a future as backup QB here it is nice to see if he can play in the snow.

 

[Pablo's TB Lover]

Would have missed from 32

 

[Ferm Sheller]

Imagine if we had had Ryland instead of Vinatieri in 2001...

 

[JOBU]

Ryland tried pretty hard to miss

Yeah that was ugly as shit. He’s no Vinatieri

 

[Zedia]

Love hearing the competent drum work of Don Brewer.

 

[Mystic Merlin]

Did not use his large frame to shield off the ball at all.

Ball was underthrown, Gesicki won on the route but the safety had time to recover. Coming back to the ball to box out the safety in that route concept/with the trajectory of the pass…eh?

 

[fiskful of dollars]

Yes, the DB did get his arm in there and make a nice play. Nevertheless, an NFL quality tight end has better ball skills and clamps that ball and controls it even with the DB’s arm in between his own.

 

[Harry Hooper]

Would have missed from 32

Yes

 

[MiracleOfO2704]

If Ryland’s back next year, he needs to spend the offseason with a coach. Yeah, he hit that one, and 30 with bad footing can be tough too, but yeesh, that would’ve been wide from 35.

 

[Reverend]

Imagine if we had had Ryland instead of Vinatieri in 2001...

No.

 

[mostman]

Woah - new tech! Hot! Too bad it draws over the players.

 

[BusRaker]

Rylands strategy is to just kick it as hard as possible so it goes through before it hooks. Not sure how kicking bird feels about that

 

[Brohamer of the Gods]

The superimposed numbers aren't really working

 

[Reverend]

I think I spoke too soon about the software and the lines. Did anyone else’s Marix just glitch out?

 

[Jim Ed Rice in HOF]

So they’re superimposing the yardage markers, huh?

 

[Brohamer of the Gods]

Not so much a sweep left as a shuffle left

 

[greek_gawd_of_walks]

The superimposed numbers aren't really working

It was disorienting the fuck out of me

 

[mostman]

I think I spoke too soon about the software and the lines. Did anyone else’s Mateix just glitch out?

It works like a green screen, keying off a color on the field. The snow destroys the algorithm.

 

[E5 Yaz]

It was disorienting the fuck out of me

I thought the Patriots offense would do that all by itself

 

[EddieYost]

Do superimposed lines usually go over players?

 

[Reverend]

It works like a green screen, keying off a color on the field. The snow destroys the algorithm.

Yup. I’m feelin’ it. Like!

 

[NortheasternPJ]

The superimposed numbers aren't really working

This is terrible. So distracting.

 

[Brohamer of the Gods]

It was disorienting the fuck out of me

We were somewhere around the 20 yard line when the drugs began to take hold.

 

[Tim Salmon]

It was disorienting the fuck out of me

It reminded me of Mario 3, when you duck on the white platform and drop behind the scenery.

 

[Mystic Merlin]

Do superimposed lines usually go over players?

And, after all, where we’re going we don’t need lines.
