@Nate_Tice As a Bears fan, it's like bizzaro world to see them mentioned. Love it.

I also noticed the better offenses - Bears, Rams - attempting to really flood areas to take advantage of how defenses match, carry, and key on traditional concepts.
so, I could see more concepts with three out breakers (i.e. Flood as opposed to Sail) or three inbreakers (Over-Over-Dig) to take advance of aggressive safeties.
Defensively, I have seen Mirror fronts get an uptick in recent years on late downs. And I don’t think that’s going away.

off the top of my head.
scheme-wise I’m looking to see if offenses evolve, adapt, or vary their protections up more to account for defenses currently being so advanced in knowing how to break traditional rules.
I think the league-wide ADOT for QBs starts to creep up slightly as offenses understand they need to push the ball more. Defenses are playing so top-down and also doing things like dropping 8 more frequently, so more traditional dropback stuff (5 and 7 step concepts), especially from under center, continue to make a comeback. Especially on early downs. Defenses might be getting faster and putting more DBs on the field, running is one way to beat it but also continuing to threaten over the top is the other way to create space.
I’m also curious to see if offenses find ways to weaponize underneath throws. Lead blockers on swings, glorified middle screens on deeper concepts.

@Nate_Tice what do you think could be the biggest evolution or shift in the meta next year?

@MailmanJack65 No doubt. Drove me nuts when I came back from an SDO and they were gone.

@LaonCamps I was positive he'd be gone, Camps. Bryant and Thieneman is a nice pairing.

@BrendanPorath Wish there was more of this on here, Brendan. Very deserving praise.

Took this picture this morning admiring the packing job by the taxi driver as we pushed off from St Andrews.
But wanted to use it to say a quick word about Cameron Hurdus and Matt Rouches here: it’s hard to do one of these trips like we just did in Scotland and not be in complete awe of them — their work ethic and how smart they are about golf. They are up before dawn working in the coldest conditions and doing the same at sunset. Not breaking in between, and setting an example for everyone and pushing us further. True students of golf course architecture, incredibly sharp golf minds, and then brilliant at shooting it all and making magic.
Add in that they want zero attention and are loath to it in a time in media when that’s all anyone wants. They’re probably mad I made this post and hate ever being the subject on the other side of the camera. But they deserve so much credit for Fried Egg being what it is, taking the culture and work ethic set by Andy and supercharging it.

it is imperative that we give MLB owners a salary cap. without it, they simply would not be able to continue selling their baseball teams for record-breaking billions in profit. please ignore the tweet below this

@garrett_TFE That was a great listen. The "PJ !" at the beginning was perfect.
English

PJ had to bring in Brian Scalabrine for this one. Hopefully played some okay D and hit a couple of threes.

Mr. @TheRealPJClark finds himself back in the Big Chair alongside @garrett_TFE as they recap an... interesting... last few days for LIV Golf. Is the PIF invested past 2026? Will Bryson re-sign after this year? Are new sponsors enough to keep LIV alive? youtu.be/l5xqgjlqhOY?si…

The NFL Draft is one week away! So #Bears fans who should the Chicago Bears select with the 25th pick?
Not gonna lie being from England my knowledge of college football is limited but I like the look of Safety Dillon Thieneman
What do you think the Bears do in the first round?
