The Random Thought Thread

Don’t think I’ve seen any mention yet but Mosley could get cleared to play soon. That would bode exceptionally well for our chances at a 3rd round comp because he only needs to play 2 more games right? That means he would miss the next game against the Raiders this weekend, and probably the Bengals (although I guess there’s a slight chance he could play against them especially since they suck) and would likely play against the Dolphins then us. If he could return for the Bengals and Dolphins that would be great since it would mean he’d get two easier games before playing us

yeah last night I posted it in other nfl teams forum. Surprised no one had commented on it yet.

What do you think? Think he comes back for Bengals or Dolphins or not at all? I’m thinking he comes back for Dolphins then plays us. I hate to say this but I could definitely see him get hurt against us going against Lamar on a short week. That’s a dangerous game for him. I could also see them push his return until after our game due to the long break between games and use that time to get him healthy. Seems pointless though since their season is already lost. It sucks because we have a lot riding on this stupid comp.

Are the jets due for any comp picks that mosley may have overridden?

Good question but I don’t think so because if they were you’d think they would’ve shut down Mosley already with how dysfunctional they are top to bottom.

I think another reason for our success is that we are always up.. i really dont recall us being down other than the kc and browns again.. we seen everything from lamar other than a game winning drive this year. We have had comfortable leads in almost every game.

Lamar did have a go-ahead TD pass in the first Chiefs game last season only for our defense to.........

He may just be back to practice next week and to play vs. the Dolphins. I do think he will come back and yes that will push our comp pick back to the 3rd round, which will most likely mean Mosley's comp pick will cancel out due to the Earl Thomas signing and we would end up getting the 3rd round comp pick for ZDS.
 
I don't believe Rudolph said what Garrett claims he did, but this is pretty funny.

I went back through my "ratings given" page and I've given out a whole bunch of random ratings. That's really embarrassing and I have no idea how that keeps happening. Maybe I'm swiping too fast on my phone and my finger accidentally hits the button?

I admit this reluctantly... but I like Colin cowherd. I didn’t at first, but I’ve grown to really like his outlandish methods of being an analyst. He recently put out a segment where he compared the ravens to golden state, and it’s pretty brilliant. His points were...

  • Colleges are all spread, o-lines are weak, QBs are coming up in 7-on-7 camps and dual threats are becoming premiere QBs all the way from youth days
  • Coaches have pushed back against the dual threat qb for too long, the ravens decided to go with it and be frontrunners
  • Golden state did the same, 3 pointers were seen as risky and unreliable, but golden state said screw it, we have a deadly 3 point shooter, let’s go get more of them and shoot so many damn 3 pointers that they can’t keep up
  • The nba is now playing catch up and trying to play the game golden state innovated
  • The ravens innovated and spearheaded what is going to become a new era in football but for now the league will be playing catch up as the ravens dominate the league

I've learned to be able to deal with him better than over a decade ago. I actually had stopped listening to him for that span of time until last season. He is definitely different now than what he used to be. He's not as outlandish anymore. It definitely helps when he has admitted being wrong about Lamar Jackson. Getting him to admit he was wrong was huge.

He was maybe the first to admit it honestly. He was dead against all things Lamar, and he seemed to almost immediately change his stance when he saw him play, at least calling him must see tv and being excited to see him, and he fully changed his stance basically in week one and has been fully on his train.

But really I just like his perspective, it’s very weird with the comparisons to other sports and non sports comparisons and the offbeat tangents he goes on, but I just enjoy it...

Joy Taylor too, yeah I can deal with her lol
