I think FSU legitimately wants out. Clemson not so much. I think they are more about shifting the power of the ACC from the non-football schools, to the football schools.

A lot of that passion died over the last decade. Not only because we won less but because the style of play became "pitt-like". Red is doing a good job but it is going to take awhile for him to rebuild that passion.

No offense to the OP but have really fallen this far?

True dat. It's not alone however. Every city worth anything in the south is overflowing at this point. Mostly due to Yankee transplants.

All already fans of other universities. Rooting for UNCA is like rooting for SUNY Buffalo.

It's not. We're an outdoor town.

The majority of people who attend UNCA are not locals and they do not play at a high enough level to have a local T-shirt fan base. Not to mention that Asheville is like Charlotte, it's a transplant city.

His teammates know it too. "concern that Dak panics when 1st read not there"

I'm with you. I hate tough guy acting QBs who are protected by over the top riculous offensive rules acting like he does. The D has no idea if he's going to slide or try to run through them.

One Dak is down two scores the game is over. He needs a sports psychologist.

Did Peyton have a habit of not showing up in every big game every single season? This year alone SF, Buffalo, Miami and then GB the offense is a total no show. That's on Dak.

They had 80 something passing yards in the first half. That's not on the D. Every single big game this year the offense can't get going exposing the defense even more. This was the same. And those 2 picks should have been 4 but GB dropped them. And Rex is a clown.

They sucked in every big game this season. This was no surprise.

In the end the Parcels quote about you are, what you are perfectly describes Dak. He is, who is. A good enough player to get there but not good enough to win it. 2-5 post season record and every year ends with him playing absolutely atrocious and looking like he doesn't know how to read a...

Some of that vitriol is because the Bills lost twice to the triplets in the 90s. One of them being a worse beatdown than Dallas took today.

This exactly. Bills were terrible when I was a kid. They games were rarely on tv. The 4 teams you mentioned were on weekly. Early 80s brought the Niners as well.

only scored 14 points. He sucked. He plays like that in the playoffs and it will be an early out.

It was amazing that the doliphins found a way to lose when Allen was playing about as poorly as he can. He looked worse than Tua for most of that game. Bills D and special teams won that game.

Watch the video from the link. It is pretty clear that Detroit was trying to pull a Belichick and the only ones they fooled were the refs. Had they reported correctly and it been announced 68 would not have been left uncovered.

Jesus, the dolphins. A 50 burger? Wow. Ravens in back to back weeks killing the Niners and the Dolphins. They have to be the SB favorite.

Isn't the game stacked in favor of the offense enough already?

Guess they did that on the fantom trip to, eh?

That is a fair point. Even if Goff throws elsewhere they get a flag for ineligible downfield. The whole play design depending on deception i really just poor imo.

Cowboys got screwed by a non-existent tripping call the series before that made the come back even possible. The refs giveth, the refs taketh away.

Like I said earlier, it is every single game that the refs have a hand in it.

They have a video of 3 OL going to the ref and only 1 reporting in. Along with a loud speaker announcement of 70 being eligible and not 68. Goff admitted they heard it, yet Detroit did nothing. Hope you are just as outraged by the tripping call that was totally bogus on the previous series that...

And none of this would have even been possible had the Cowboys not been called for a tripping penalty after the interception, when there was no tripping by the TE. It was the Detroit player who tried to trip the RB. If they are first and 10 instead of first and 25, they either score a TD or use...

Its not a reviewable play. No way that it could ever be really. Again, the refs screw up every big game. Apparently this one is a big deal because one finally went for Dallas instead of against them.

The eligible players are announced over the loud speaker. Goff has admitted they only heard 70 be announced. Why would he or the coaching staff not call a time out? In the replays you can see the defense pointing to 70. If 68 had been announced odds are he is not wide open.

Just about every big game is decided by a call or no call. The league is well past the point of needing full time refs. Billion dollar business that basically has refs one step up from the ACC refs. It a joke.

Imo, the lions outsmarted themselves. They had 2 lineman walking towards the official, one of which had no intention of reporting. They then ran 70 on the field at the ref to report as well. They tried to hide 68 reporting and they did it so well they hid him from the ref too.

Ultimately the GM and his son are the ones responsible. Every single year Smith gets hurt and every single year they have backups that don't belong in the league. Big Mike did Dak no favors with his play calling either. That said, other than Philly, in the past 5 years, Dak doesn't beat...

28 years and counting. Jerry will double down and resign Dak for 60 million and then wonder why nothing ever changes.

They did not run the ball fine, imo. If you want to call it lack of commitment to the run instead of the RBs not doing well, sure. The two RBs carried 14 times. I looked at the play by play log on ESPN and they ran the ball just 9 times in the first half, on 4 drives. Of those 4 one of those...

If this is actually true, I am being a bit hard in my criticism. We will see one way or another next week in Miami.

He takes way to many sacks for a guy in year 8. But the offense is not entirely his fault. Dallas cannot run the ball either. Pollard looking exactly Felix Jones when he was finally made lead back. We need a truck like Derrick Henry for games like this. Take the pressure off of Dak and the...

He has shown that the moment he gets hit, he plays scared. This game is a carbon copy of the last 3 years of the SF games. 3 and out, over and over and over. He is a serviceable starter but he will never win in the post season.

They will get blown out next week in Miami as well.

Dallas showing once again who they really are. 29 years and counting. Going to be 1 and done again this post season.

I am not concerned about Buffalo as much as I am Miami. The weather looks mild and Buffalo has artificial turf so I expect them to play well, win or lose. Miami on the other hand with that grass could get ugly. Dallas has played like garbage the past few seasons on the road in on grass fields...

Seattle isn't taking heat for their performance.

That Seattle game was their third game in roughly 12 days. Them pulling out the win says more about them then them almost losing.

Same. Until they can win more than a wild card game I'm not a believer.

I never discount division games, the Giants could pull an upset, but the only real threat of another Philly loss is in Seattle this week. That team plays hard every week and that stadium noise is tough on visiting teams. So I fully expect Dallas to have the best WC team record, ever. Ridiculous...

If in the next two weeks he wins in Buffalo and Miami, the race is over. The shocking part is he would be the first ever Dallas QB to ever win it. Hard to believe Roger never did better than second place.

I have been there many times and never once heard someone self identify as a "New Englander" but I will take your word for it. Maybe it shows up in other ways.
