    Diggs to Texans

    Tape, I think the real issue is that Diggs is not going to be the #1 WR for the first time in forever. Collins remains the #1, and Dell will push Diggs for #2 receptions. When Diggs gets 3 targets, which is going to happen, watch out.

    Fangraphs says Jones' stuff is absolutely elite, and agrees with Bucfan that his stuff compares very favorably to Spencer Strider. Fangraphs article says Jones fastball best in baseball after 1 start

    Pirates 2024

    Pirates picked up Ryder Ryan off the minor league free agent scrap heap. Hunter Stratton was a very low round draft pick in 2017. He picked Jared Jones in the 2nd round, Skenes 1-1, Barco 2nd round, etc. Cherington knows where to find power arms though obviously he did not draft Stratton.

    Pirates 2024

    And forced Nats pitchers to throw 205 more pitches. That's now 991 in five games, an AVERAGE of 198/game. They simply burn through the opponent's pitching and make every game the Bucco's starter struggles a bullpen game. Advantage, Pirates. Or where the Pirates' starter is on, then advantage...

    Pirates 2024

    213 172 197 204 Those are the number of pitches thrown by Marlins pitchers in the four games. 786 pitches in 4 games or an average of 191 per game. You wanna see if a team has a deep pen? Make them throw 191 pitches per game.

    Pirates 2024

    4- game winning streak on the road against 4 L-handed starters. Also, Falter is not long for the rotation. He just isn't. The Pirates have not only Skenes but Priester in AAA. Priester went 5 2/3 today, giving up 1 H while fanning 9 and winning the game. The only run off him was due to the...

    Pirates 2024

    Know who Jones reminds me of? Spencer Strider. Strider is 6'0", 190 lbs., deals 98 mph+, filthy slider. Strider pitched 186 innings last season, fanned 281. Jones is 6'1", 190 lbs., deals 98 mph+, filthy slider. Jones also has a very good change that he threw just 6 times yesterday but dang...

    Steelers sign Cordarrelle Patterson

    That is explained by the fact the Falcons used the #8 pick on Bijan Robinson, a 3-down back. Robinson was the #1 RB, moving Allgeier to #2 and Patterson out of the mix.

    Steelers sign Cordarrelle Patterson

    Patterson was a really good RB as recently as 2022 - 695 yards, 4.8 YPA, 8 TD's. He was a lot of fun to watch running the ball for the Falcons. Dude runs HARD.

    Pirates 2024

    Yeah, for the first two years of the new contract but the simple fact is that long-term, expensive pitcher contracts to guys over age 30 are a massive negative. Take a look at some examples: Justin Verlander - 2019. More time on the DL than the mound. David Price - 2022. Yikes. Zack Greinke -...

    I got to ask: What has changed?

    Arthur Smith's Offense

    Nice video, tape, and shows why zone blocking is crucial to Smith's heavy play-action. Zone blocking allows line to block the same run-or-pass, while drive blocking or double-teaming is not going to work since the linemen are going to wind up more than a yard past the LOS too much. We'll see...

    I love every time the Steelers make Stain fans angry

    Just recently watched that movie and it has to be the dumbest representation of a draft strategy I have ever seen. "I love a guy I can get at 7 so I'm going to trade my next three #1's to move up to 1 to get him. Oh but I can count on some moronic guy to trade three #2's (the equivalent of a 2...

    I figured out what I was feeling about all this

    My thoughts as well. I watch grown men chase a ball for entertainment. These guys don't care if I live or die, don't go on message boards to wonder if I can improve my career, and at this stage of my life if watching them chase a ball is no longer enjoyable, I stop watching.
