Start Kyle Orton

Tyson Bagent is Joe Montana out there throwing to future Footlocker employees every preseason, if your dude was so much better than the competition it would show

The Shedeur cope is insane. "He's being sabotaged they got him w fourth stringers!" Yeah playing against fourth stringers bc he is in fact the fourth stringer

We must put him into the laboratory for three years and when he emerges he may be......David Garrard

Damn right. Desipio Message Boards shaped the internet's best deviants

I have a suggestion

I get why my film bros still think there's hope. I get why my analytical nerds are like lol. Lmao. I'm more the latter, but man you just don't see a guy show "it" as often as he does and still suck.

Usually when they say a guy "flashes" they just mean "had moments where his fuck ass process still got results" like the Trubisky 6 TD game. But Richardson legitimately flashes moments of anticipation and pocket presence and processing that are so good and then buries them in miles of shit.

Like I have devoted way too much of my time to the analytics of football to believe that a guy can have what is quite easily the least accurate passing season since the merger and just be fine the next year. But I don't know the guys who are truly bad just don't seem to have those moments either

I don't know that I've ever been more maddeningly frustrated by a QBs tape than Anthony Richardson. It is all there, everything you want, but it's so infrequent and so fucking ugly when it's not I really can't make myself believe he can cross that gap but I can't give up on him fully either

I think it's probably a better Supermam movie than it is just a movie I'm sure there's plot and pacing issues normal people care about that I just don't because I took my boys to see a Superman movie and they thought it was awesome and recognized it was actually fuckin Superman

Also I'm glad we've finally broken the "superman only knows what to do when Jor Els hologram ghost tells him" thing. As far as I'm concerned Jor El only ever needs to put the baby on a rocket and die.

This is great because Superman has such a vast background to draw from it's been frustrating seeing the movies get stuck playing mostly within the parameters of the Donnerverse

Superman 2025 feels like the first one to use the comics and even stuff like Smallville and the Bruce Timm animated stuff as it's primary source, there's tons of All Star and Birthright especially in there.

II-IV are direct sequels, Returns is a weird masturbatory sequel/homage to an unreleased directors cut of Superman II. Almost everything in Man of Steel is something that happens in Superman I or II, just aggressively repackaged and desaturated to show This Ain't Ur Dad's Superman

Even though it openly borrows some of the iconography and the theme I enjoyed that Superman was the first Superman movie since Superman 1978 that didn't feel like it was just a sequel or a remake of it.

Also I don't even know if they're on here but I laughed incredibly hard at Alyssa managing to make a Superman review that was mostly just "Go Birds" extremely on brand there

I saw your review on letterboxd and agreed but I gave it an extra star on account of being an unapologetic DC nerd who had a great time watching Superman with his kids.

And there was a moment where things looked Grim and I heard Augie mutter to himself "it's okay..he's coming" and then superman fucking supermanned

What matters to me is I took both boys and there was a moment where Superman was flying and they were both absolutely locked on the screen, mouths ajaw, believing a man could fly.

Yeah this is why i am a dark knight rises defender. It's a total mess that absolutely nails the heart and the characters and that's all I really care about comics are rarely about Tight Logical Plots.

It's probably an objective 3 stars but it so nails what I want from my big blue boy scout that it's an easy 4.5 for me

Text me when you get around to it.

Hey nerds I really liked the superman movie.

Fuck you

60% of the time he works every time.

I get thinking you can hide guys w scheme or you can coach guys up but Ingram not being able to play in KOCs system should be about as damning as it gets.

It just wasn't the comp people wanted to hear when everyone was saying Lamar Jackson or whatever but it's not a good/bad binary it's just about play styles and the respective plusses and minuses to each

Likewise one of the better case scenarios I gave for Jayden Daniels was "very fast Alex Smith" and I'd argue when you look at where and how he succeeded passing last year it was very similar and also Alex Smith with the ability to run for 1000 yards is...pretty good!

Yeah I feel like there's a lot of revisionism where folks try to dunk on folks who were low on Nix as a prospect but almost nobody said he couldn't be an NFL starter given his accuracy and experience. It was all based on ceiling. Feels like the post 2021 crowing about Mac Jones that aged poorly

When I see Bears fans actively rooting for Rodgers to Minnesota like the ecosystem that won 14 games w Darnold couldn't resurrect that guy:
