I do believe Direckshun was the one who initially started the LNBS thread trend.

I guess the main thing I would want clarified here, is was Direckshun aware that this was a 3rd and 16 play, or was this simply a highlight play that was just cherry picked to break down without regard to or knowledge of the down and distance.

One answer can prove this to be a simple gaffe, an ill informed take due to not being aware of the down and distance and looking a bit silly and nothing more.

The other answer, that being yes,, he was aware this was a 3rd n 16 would prove this to be something else entirely. Trolling, stupidity, losing your fingertip grip on reality and descending into an abyss of irreversible lunacy, take your pick.

If he was aware that it's 3rd n 16, and still wants the Alex Smith trademark dumpoff over the highlight reel play and first down...well, fire away and it's all deserved.

My initial response (not a positive one) was based on knowledge that this was 3rd and 16 being possessed at the time of the breakdown.

Even if it's first down, I still want the shot to Hill over a dumpoff. However, at least there's some sort of sanity that can be found in just saying take the free easy yards if you do still have a down or two to go.

I disagree with it because I want the killer that we've seen the past 3 years. I don't want to see him devolve into a boring checkdown artist.

Yeah, and in fairness they usually at least pose a question or discussion point that is outside the box. It's football talk. Good for the board.

Welcome to most of this ****ing season. Ive made that point many times in many threads.

Yes

When everybody is around and we're swinging for long bombs away, how do we come around to know that man, this... this really is what it's for?

I want wins. Get them by any means necessary. Titles won are best. Doesn't matter how.

I had no issue with the throw. I don't feel like it put anyone in real danger. The throw not much later to Clyde in traffic for a known loss was much more likely to result in an injury than the throw to Hill.

Well then, BRC has been receiving my side eye in your place.
