Now that is sad. Kantou the Killer Snail, Strangeville Stan and JDWeirdOne
all now playing together in P-DUMB's sand-filled head. Being the most recent
of your cowardly nicks, how about you stop "top-posting" so that whomever it
is that you are attempting to communicate with will actually know that you
are attempting to do so. It's only fair that folks have the advanced
opportunity to ignore/killfile you like I give them for myself. Such Usenet
courtesy can work just as well for you as it has for me.
Much appreciated P-DUMBpUTZ

I admit that your statement holds water, ...well..., ...it does as long as
noone checks back to see that which you <snipped> from your prior post.
Hmmm... "RaveNsfan" - Mike...? RaveNsfan" - Mike...? For my money, and I'm
making an educated guess here, "Mike" seems a bit generic to me so I'm going
to have to go with the "RaveNsfan" guy over Mike, as the most likely Ravens
fan between these two posters.
So dude, are you "that new" to this Usenet "thingie" that you don't grasp
the concept of posting directly "to the author of the post" in a given
thread that you claim to be referencing? At least you managed to post to
me this time. Being the only Ravens fan in this newsgroup I'd wager I may
have stood out a tad.
59 posts in September thus far doesn't suggest that you are in any way a
"shy" fella and thus you can not be a "newbie" to Usenet. In fact the lack
of any postings associated with your nick, prior to this September, more
than suggests that at a minimum you are nym shifting for some reason. Every
poster has mannerisms that over time act as a sort of "LowJack", that can
aid in identifying anonymous, nym shifting cowards. To aid in your
"perception" please allow me to articulate here, as you visualize, ...that
in your particular case you are as revealing as that shirtless 300 pound
carpenter repairing your rear porch deck last weekend, when quite
unexpectedly he bent over to retrieve his dropped hammer while you were
seated in the deck recliner directly behind him. Yes that was me and yes
again, ...I did catch that familiar "look of approval" on your face you bad
boy.

Hardly... it doesn't take a Colombo nor an Eisnstein.

LMAO ...oh boy... did I leave that one a tad open for self promotional
interpretation or what? Gotta give you props for grabbing that brass ring
when it presented itself . Oh hell, ...go ahead and enjoy, sure as hell
someone will stop by soon enough to offer up their half-empty glass.
Good luck this week after which it will be T-minus 2 weeks ... and counting
; ).
That game is going to rock the house with near, if not equal, intensity as
was experienced at eMpTy Bank on opening day against the Steelers. From our
chronically despised divisional rivals, to our player respected, fan revered
former DC & assist HC. Definitely an emotional roller-coaster, albeit from
the other, more pleasant end of the spectrum.

I think you're mostly right, but I think the problems on D started
before some of these personnel issues. I think their good defenses
left with Romeo.
I agreed with you about fat albert until I saw him play Monday night.
Guy makes Wilfork look like Kenyon Coleman. I thought he was one of
the biggest stories of the night, even though the media isn't talking
about him. On the other side of the coin, Shaun Ellis looked
pedestrian every snap he was on the field.

Don't get NFL Network where I am but there are a number of clips at NFL.com at
One notable thing, at least in these clips: the guy never raises his voice.
In one he actually tells his players: "If you make a good play it is all right to feel a little emotion about it. Think how much work and preparation went into being able to make that play. It's OK to feel good, show a little positive feeling about it."
!!! :-)
Coaching is maybe the last profession where people have license to indulge themselves by screaming and cursing at others. After Lombardi, a lot of people took it as practically being a job requirement -- although Lombardi himself said "coaching is teaching" and that his own hot temper was a personality trait that he had to work to control and direct because it could get in the way.
Landry was the Iceman, Walsh was The Professor, they talked their teams to championships. From this it looks like Belichick is in their camp.
"Rah! Rah! Scream! Scream! Curse! Curse!", *not* the key trait in coaching champions.

Don't get NFL Network where I am but there are a number of clips at NFL.com
at
One notable thing, at least in these clips: the guy never raises his voice.
In one he actually tells his players: "If you make a good play it is all
right to feel a little emotion about it. Think how much work and
preparation went into being able to make that play. It's OK to feel good,
show a little positive feeling about it."
!!! :-)
Coaching is maybe the last profession where people have license to indulge
themselves by screaming and cursing at others. After Lombardi, a lot of
people took it as practically being a job requirement -- although Lombardi
himself said "coaching is teaching" and that his own hot temper was a
personality trait that he had to work to control and direct because it could
get in the way.
Landry was the Iceman, Walsh was The Professor, they talked their teams to
championships. From this it looks like Belichick is in their camp.
"Rah! Rah! Scream! Scream! Curse! Curse!", *not* the key trait in coaching
champions.
___________________________________________________________________________________
Could not agree more. Young coaches get emotional...mainly because they
don't know enough and that is where they played the game or saw the game
from. As a coach matures and if they are serious and learn, and learn and
learn more, they shut up and teach. I always felt when you see a high
school team running wind sprints at the end of every practice it is a sing
of the fact the coach has nothing left to say or do. Time is valuable, and
can't be wasted on a practice field...yes, you have to keep them in shape,
but you can do that during the course of practice and during warm ups.
Every minute means something...use it...BB looks like that kind of coach, it
is very, very focused. I loved his comments about guys staying after to
work on skills together...that is a must. Good players learn something and
then want to reinforce it themselves before they leave that field and go
home.

Haynesworth got a 100mm contract at one point, so there has to be
somthng there, I would guess. If he plas as good as he has in the
past it has he potential of being the best fa move of the season

Mason should keep his freakin mouth shut. Do something..play football

You're not bursting anyone's bubble. It's irrelevant when it was first
posted. Really, who cares if it's from last January. It's still funny.

I must admit that I didn't bother looking at the date stamp. I must

This article says the QB holding the ball over three seconds determines the difference.
~~
... The median sack time has hovered between 2.7 and 2.8 seconds throughout the two years of the tracking...
Roethlisberger, Michael Vick, Colt McCoy and Joe Flacco join Cutler in picking up plenty of sacks that really shouldn't be blamed on the offensive line...
Over the past offseason we logged the time of pass for all Steelers pass attempts in 2010. Since Roethlisberger is considered to be prime example of a quarterback who creates big plays by holding the ball and escaping sacks, his statistics are useful.
In Roethlisberger's case, his sack percentage (the percentage of pass plays that results in sacks) doubled when he held the ball for longer than three seconds -- seven percent for passes of 2.1 to 3.0 seconds, 14 percent for passes that took between 3.1 and 4.0 seconds.
Interestingly, his quarterback rating, yards per attempt and first down percentage all dipped when he held the ball for more than three seconds, so it's difficult to say that holding the ball longer really pays off for Roethlisberger.
On the other end of the spectrum, when the Colts lost Peyton Manning to a neck injury, they not only lost one of the best quarterbacks in the league, but they also lost a quarterback who could make their offensive line's potential weaknesses seem to disappear.
Over the past two years, Manning has been sacked only 26 times. When you look at sacks that are created by a quarterback holding the ball too long, however, Manning is even more exceptional. No other quarterback can top Manning's four sacks of three-plus seconds in 1,250 pass attempts (0.32 percent of attempts).
[Table for all QBs for 2009 and 2010 -- Sanchez is near the exact middle of them all]
LONGEST SACK OF THE WEEK
There were four sacks which took six seconds or longer ...
Tony Romo's 6.0-second sack is the one that may be most remembered: it came on the play where he attempted to dive for the end zone from the Jets 3-yard line. He lost the ball before he landed, didn't make it to the end zone and gave the Jets a second chance...

This is way too simplistic..extremely so. We need to examine each play, the
steps in the drop, the development of the play. And a QB who is seeing
pressure almost immediately after the snap will not react the same way as
when the protection execution is in tact from the start. Essentially, the
guy needs to be able to get into his drop as designed. Cutler is the one
I'd say is a huge problem though...Vick tries too hard at times and keeps
trying to buy time. But, Vick's mechanics are excellent even when he is
avoiding things. I think a lot of these statistics are generated just to
generate a number...they don't really mean anything, each play needs to be
analyzed to see what is going on.
