Cheering against your roommates team… Clearly you want blood. He doesn’t do the dishes and leaves his laundry in the washer all day

Question: why do they always talk about how hard it is for West Coast teams to fly all the way over to the East coast, but they rarely talk about East Coast teams going West. Yeah, I get the 1:00 games are now at 10:00 blah blah blah…. Are West Coast sunshine and warm weather teams just softer? They don’t want their delicate sleep patterns disturbed?
Bc it’s 3 hours earlier for all west coast teams… Imagine starting your job 3 hours earlier 1 day a week… To work at 6am instead of 9am? You’d probably be a touch slower. In today’s game, it doesn’t matter bc it’s a 430 game… But east coast games are usually 1pm

Playing CB is hard.

In general any task in which your competitor knows what the plan is and you do not is a challenging task. CB even more so on account of the extreme athleticism/talent, technique and strategy being deployed.

Hell yea miss those kicks
I know, and I still think Quinyon is awesome. It’s just, sometimes you’re gonna get beat by a guy who’s not as good as you. The game is hard.
That’s why those international games are so crazy…imagine playing football at 1 or 2 am your normal time zone time

The international games are all 9am Eastern times….

Sure shaping up to be a Saquan game. He may get 30 carries.
yes, like I said 10 am vs 1 pm. These guys are professional athletes. And it’s not like they do it every week. And it’s not like a surprise. They come out with the schedule 6 months in advance. If my boss told me at the beginning of the new year, ok, on these particular Mondays—say 5 weeks out of 18, we need you to be at work 3 hours early….I’m pretty sure I wouldn’t need people talking about how brutal it was.

Except they get to the stadium 3 hours early on top of that… So instead of showing up at 10am for a 1pm game, it’s 7am. I’d bet it’s harder on older guys than the 24 year olds… I know I don’t operate the same when my sleep schedule and location change
So very interesting data I recently stumbled across.
A human athletes peak performance is like 3-6pm in the time zone they are normalized in.
So teams that travel East and play in that window win 80% of the games because that means the players they are playing against are outside of that window.
And it was in a podcast so I have not looked up hard data.
But it would be interesting. So in essence SF is at a disadvantage most of this game due to the time it is played. And forget about going West.
So the late game means good chance LAC upset NE due to the playing time. Or 80% chance
Again the discussion was very broad so it could have been across all sports or it could have just been football. But regardless it was a super interesting discussion about the bodies peak performance
I don’t understand the Eagles. They have one of the best OLines and they have one of the beat RBs and one of the best WRs with another WR almost as good but they dont score. They get into these low score games.
If Josh Allen was the QB this team would be crazy

The line they are running out there this year and especially today isn’t one of the best
Also if I was not clear. Going West is death for teams.
My buddy and I have been tracking teams going to the Weat coast and it is stupid. As a matter of fact. The teams jumping 3 time zones loses so much it is crazy.
