I would like to add myself to the chorus declaring this an all-time tweet.

@KeepSafeHelp Except if you get locked out. Then they’re no help. Find another app

[derek @derekdwald]

@KeepSafeHelp Don’t store anything in @keepsafe. They’re absolutely no help. And shall you get locked out… they tell you to kick rocks. Absolute joke of an app. They don’t need a customer support team, since they don’t support the customers at all.

FREAK ATHLETE

@Robby_NFL It’s crazy how much different the general public, and people who cover the sport talk about players compared to people who coach, and play the sport. Bo is good in a variety of ways that are important to the Broncos specifically, and that allows the to win games in 3 phases.

[SleeperBroncos @SleeperBroncos]

So disrespected but so good, too

[Zack Kelberman @KelbermanNFL]

Hey @Broncos, it couldn't hurt to ask

[Zack Kelberman @KelbermanNFL]

Bo Nix would be playing in the AFC Championship if @NFLOfficiating did their job correctly

[Matt St. Jean @mattstdream]

If anyone has a right to be mad about officiating, it's Denver.

Get this call right, and Bo Nix heads to the AFC Championship healthy.

[SleeperBroncos @SleeperBroncos]

I love how they are still talking about this specific one because they refuse to admit that it still would’ve been a 15-yard penalty anyway because Joey Bosa hit Bo Nix 30 minutes after the pass

They never want to acknowledge that there were two flags on this play 😂

[Chad Jensen @ChadNJensen]

If the Refs call this egregious hold on D.J. Jones in the end zone, it's results in a safety and per OT rules, the game would have been over. What hurts is that Bo Nix would still be the #Broncos QB. I don't wanna hear it, Buffalo.

[DJ Jones @djjones_44]

Whole game

[derek @derekdwald]

@BenjaminSolak Finally a reasonable Nix take. Bet those words hurt your thumbs to type? At some point you should give up on your incorrect pre-draft analysis. Otherwise, I mostly enjoy your stuff.

[derek @derekdwald]

@AllbrightNFL Oh god

[derek @derekdwald]

@SharpFootball If the penalties weren’t called, then that decides the game too. If you don’t call clear pass interference penalties then why wouldn’t White just tackle Mims like 4 yard before the ball got there. Just trip him. Fuck it. If White doesn’t interfere, Mims maybe scores for the win.

The Bills Got Absolutely Fucked Over And We Got Robbed Of A Classic Because The NFL Somehow Has No Idea What The Hell A Catch Is https://t.co/Evy2m0Uzou

[derek @derekdwald]

Your entire career, NFL and after, is a series of you missing the important details.

[Dan Orlovsky @danorlovsky7]

This in an NFL playoff game got ruled an interception and ended Buffalo’s season?!!?? This is a catch every time

[Gene Steratore @GeneSteratore]

At some point when reviewing plays, the league should consider adding a speed threshold for anything involving the element of time.

When you slow plays down to 1/100th the speed, it distorts what actually happened and makes it look like, in this case, Cooks possessed the ball for seconds prior to losing it. The game is not played in slow motion or frame by frame.

For a catch:

A) Secure control of the ball ✅
B) Two feet down in bounds ✅
C) After (a) and (b) have been fulfilled, clearly performs any act common to the game (e.g., extend the ball forward, take an additional step, tuck the ball away and turn upfield, or avoid or ward off an opponent), or he maintains control of the ball long enough to do so.

C is where there is a judgement needed since A and B are clearly met. Now consider this note to the rule:

If a player, who satisfied (a) and (b), but has not satisfied (c), contacts the ground and loses control of the ball, it is an incomplete pass if the ball hits the ground before he regains control, or if he regains control out of bounds.

Because Cooks did lose control of the ball when he contacted the ground and the ball never contacted the ground, it was ruled an interception by Denver.

More on this. During Covid wing prices skyrocketed. A 40 pound case went for around $80 to $240. So places HAD to raise their prices. So wings went from $8 a dozen to like $18 a dozen. They started offering 10 instead. And people paid.

After things settled down in say late 2021 prices returned to pre-covid levels, but places didn’t want to give up the revenue. So the switch to bigger wings started occurring. A bit more expensive sure, but still far more profitable. You are now being ripped off. I myself kept them around $12 a dozen, which is fair.

But what pisses me off is that bigger wings simply aren’t nearly as good. Too much meat. Not as crispy. The skin became secondary. Wings aren’t a meal, they’re an appetizer, something you eat with a few beers.

So now getting wings means you pay far too much for a product that’s simply not as good.

It ends now. MAKE WINGS GREAT AGAIN!

[SleeperNFL @SleeperNFL]

generally Super Bowl winning teams need to have:

- a great head coach
- an elite defense
- a QB that can deliver in the clutch

which team is that this year?
