Extra rep for anyone who knows what that is reference to.

The book: “Who’s a Pest. A Homer story”?

Then at the end they squandered at least 30 seconds huddling and doing stupid clock management shit including a substitution at 12 seconds. They had several delay of games and could have had another 4-5 as the refs gave them some leeway.

In my 52 years of watching pro football, this was the WORSE by a mile. :mad:

I went to r/miamidolphins after the game to read the carnage. There was none. Fins fans were perfectly happy with the season and Mike McDaniel. The game being closer than expected wiped away accountability on McDaniel reading the Denny’s menu while the clock was going tick tick tick.

Wilson knows the audibles for two different teams! He just can’t remember which is which.

It’s certainly all relative, isn’t it?

Yep. Now, how did you know that?

Damn, that's sad.

The things we make look easy are actually really difficult. Once a play is over, there is down and distance, play selection, personnel groupings, play articulation, motion, and then snap.

I tried multiple approaches to solve the riddle:
First I tried to recall if anywhere in my past I had come across these words. While having a near eidetic memory, I must admit, this approach failed me.
Then I tried a self-hypnotic regression to see if I could possibly retrieve a blocked or regressed memory. This also produced no joy.
Feeling desperate, I tried to tap the Akashic plane and access all cosmic knowledge and data in the universe. However, I again could not solve the riddle.
Then, in a stroke of inspiration I realized I just Google "Beans, said Homer" and cut/paste the results into my response. This approach worked for me.
It's a fairly obscure reference, how did you come to know it by heart?

I understand different moments in the game that get away from the coaches or players but holy ****, it was EVERY PLAY and I'm not exaggerating.

It was a train wreck. :doh!:

I'm kind of amazed at how smoothly personnel changes happen in the NFL. You'll see players running on and off the field all the time, and there are seldom mistakes. It all happens really fast, too.

I would HATE to be in charge of that stuff. You've got to choose a good play within 1-2? seconds of the last one ending and then do literally everything else. Chiefs are amazing at it.

(If we aren't, though, it's clearly EB's fault.)

Not if you’re Mark McDaniel. Get it done with 12 seconds left and all good.

Agree with OP, our players seem to know the situation much better than other teams. But do they really deserve a medal for doing their job? Any player in the NFL has been playing football since they were about 7 years old and knowing what to do in specific situations is quite literally their job. A job they are paid very well to do. Their is absolutely no reason for any player on any team not to know what is going on.

With these guys it is THEIR JOB to know where you are supposed to line up, what blitzers to pick up, not to jump offsides on 3rd and 3, to get plays in in a timely manner, to know all the audibles, when to field or not to touch a punted ball, etc.

These guys will make bonehead mistakes as long as the owners don't hold players and coaches accountable. Did Dee Ford ever play another game for us after his horrible mental error? I don't think he did and rightly so.
