Tua has millions(big) left on contract.  Can he get paid if he quits?

I’ve been watching this on and off but how the hell did Tua not get off a Hail Mary pass on the final play of the first half?

 

He can't throw it that far.

Lamar Jackson must be one of the greatest improvisational QB's of our lifetime.  I also love the way the Ravens D swarms the ball carrier.

The Skins won the division the year before, but Fisher put the 8-8 curse on the Skins after that game!   Skins ended up going 8-8 that year, finishing 3rd in their division.  A few weeks after that game, Norv Turner got fired in December and Robiscuit  was the interim head coach (he went 1-2). lol  Deion Sanders was also a CB on the Skins that year.  What a clusterfuck...

@charleytolar

To what do I owe this unexpected visit? Is this about my being right about all those horrible J-Rob trades-up...

I should probably start a separate topic for it but I kind of don't give a shit so ... here's a fun video on game theory and why offenses don't pass the ball 100% of the time and why defenses play a run defense even though stopping the run is less vital / advantageous (yards-wise) than stopping the pass.

 

In other words, it uses math to show how and why running does set up the pass ... just not necessarily in the way that people tend to discuss it. If you've ever really thought it through, you might already be aware of this but I certainly don't get the impression from reading this forum that most people have actually thought it through ... or are capable of independently thinking it through without assistance like this video.

 

And, yes, it's only 20 to 30 minutes long so it's only going to present a certain level of detail, especially because it's clearly tailored to having to educate people who know nothing about math or stats or ... anything. But it's a start and establishes the concept rather securely. Also, as is said in the video, not every play situation is the same and not every player is the same and not every team is the same and there's a million variables which render decisions far more complex than this surface-level assessment.

 

Blah blah blah, just shut up and watch the video.
