    Check out these throws. Major anticipation.

    You guys see a struggling QB. I see ELITE QB play. This was consistent all game outside of the air mail.

    Only people in the league doing this consistently are Stafford, Burrow, at times Jordan Love and Patrick Mahomes.

    Insane throw.

    All of the top 10-15 guys are making those throws routinely. Those are throws NFL QBs are expected to make.

    The point isn’t if he can make routine throws, it’s can he routinely make those throws

    That’s all good and well but he’s still not on par with them nor the likes of Drake either

    I think the offense is finally beginning to gel. The OL, our rookie receivers, our rookie RB, and our rookie OC seem to finally be putting it all together. I believe this will positively impact CJ and that he is going to deliver over the remainder of this season.

    Except Galaga, I played most of those on the Atari or whatever came after that. I remember Joust being badass.

    Mid 90's, my local laundromat had a Galaga machine (and a taqueria around the corner). Once a week, my laundry was always fresh.

    Tempest was wack, if that's the one I'm thinking of.

    Defender went both to the left and right, right?

    Yes, Tempest was wack, that's what I was thinking of.

    But did Defender go just L->R? There was a very similar game that let you go both ways (NTTAWWT)

    Well it goes up and down as well and you have to shoot things, especially after they got your human from the ground. You had to shoot the ship and catch your guy before it hit the ground.

    Texans with Stroud post Wk 3 have been averaging 27ppg on offense.

    Team is being held down from early season struggles and Mills game, but we may be seeing an above average offense the rest of the way.

    Super bowl contender.

    Loved defender. I used to play at the UtoteM up the street where the old lady would give me quarters to push the beverages forward from inside the walk-in fridge. Of course, I slammed a few while I was doing my work. I was damn good at that game. However, at the arcade next to the gin mill lounge, where I used to like playing shuffleboard, I was dominant at asteroids, I could flip that b**** over all day long. Ms. Pac-Man, no thanks, I could also turn the OG over and over. Somehow, I don’t like gaming much at all. Seems a kids thing, dunno…
