Twice this year Tampa won the battle of the Bays. Neither time did I feel like Tom was responsible. Rather, Tampa's Defense was able to stymie A-rod like the rest of the league only wish they were able to. Tom was just along for the ride. Throwing lame ducks and getting lucky with terrible coverage that gifted them a TD before the half. 1 or 2 plays changed the game. But that's usually the story.
 
We in Packerland are now left cheering for Mahomes and the Chiefs, mostly because we are all sick and tired of the other guy.

People like Tom raise people’s level of playing just by his presence. It’s spark. It’s easy to see in baseball. One person gets a hit the rest follow. I’ve seen managers change a dominant pitcher just after one hit late in a game. And sometimes it works.

Andy, you nailed it. The Tampa D was bringing it all.

 

I don't however believe Tom had nothing to do with it. His personal performance was only average ( 56% completion average. 75.4 QB rating.), but in the half time interview with Bruce Arians he, Bruce, mentioned that 'Today I'm along for the ride. Tom is both play caller and coach today and I'm loving it". (paraphrased) Somebody is going to get the idea Brady would make a good head coach ?  

 

Brady, under his average and he tossed three interceptions. Two of which were off deflections not bad throws. Aaron connected at a 69% clip and one interception. Green Bay owned the time of possession. QB play was better, Had fewer turnovers, more first downs and more total yards. Still lost. Here's a stinger.

 

Rodgers QB rating for this game? 66.8%              Green Bay just got  'G.O.A.T. ed".

 

Ali in his last successful capture of the world title was not as sharp with his punches Didn't hit as hard. Couldn't dance like he did Buuuuuuuuuuuuut...a pure ring General that still got it done. the original G.O.A.T.

 

Can you truly be great if your only so when your flawless? 

 

Now I'm not sacrificing on the alter of Brady but the 'kid' better not take him for granted either. Especially now that he has two O linemen in a world of hurt at exactly the worst possible time. 

 

I'm really looking forward to this Super Bowl no matter who wins it. Just make it a GAME worth watching.

Like I said. I know it’s only halfway at this point. All I been hearing all week KC was going to dominate Brady. Not looking like it.

Well that was embarrassing. Eeeesh!!!

 

This was a lesson in the importance of your left tackle.

Get well and get back to work Eric Fisher.

It is a game. My wife doesn't like football. I understand that it isn't everybody's cup of tea.

Why so important to minimize and dismiss something another cares about you have no interest in?

Tell me Ryan, what do you care about?

What interest you?

Perhaps I can return the favor.

:crackup:

Aside from women, I'm still trying to figure out what my other interests are.  :P

34-28 OT nail bitter that could have gone either way. Chargers played well. In fact the game was fairly penalty free and quite clean. Hat's off to both teams. Sorry Bolt's

 

GO CHIEFS! 

:P

In my market we've had most of KC's games. How happy am I?

    • While waiting for parts I have been working on installing the AC compressor, new accumulator, and orifice tube. Also changed out the high side ball valve (original). The orifice tube that was in there wasn't too bad. Slightly dirty, a little bit of junk, but not blocked. Glad I changed it out.   The accumulator, which should have been a 5 minute job, may have just burned $50. Put some PAG in it, wrote the date and mileage on the side, fresh o-rings and gooey'd up the threads and rings with Nylog. Got everything connected and snugged and was going to vacuum down the system, and....   My manifold gauge won't fit on the port. It's not an R12 service port. It LOOKS like an R134 service port but the diameter is a hair too large. There's a sticker on the accumulator that says it's designed to be used with R12 and R134a systems only. So it's not R1234yf. Even if I reduced the diameter slightly with a file, the shoulder on the port is too large so the quick-connect valve won't lock on. I'm stumped. It's going back, and 50/50 on if they'll give me a refund.   Also, I did a fuel pressure test.... Key on, the gauge spikes to about 60psi and quickly bleeds off, like 2psi per second. The fuel isn't going into the plenum, no smell, starts fine, so I'm guessing there's a bad check valve in the pump and the fuel is just draining back into the tank. oh, hell. But, it shouldn't be a problem, pump primes just fine and the truck starts right up. It just means I can't really ever use fuel pressure to verify a leak at the injector or intake.
    • Got this yesterday out of nowhere. Truck is a 25',6.6 gasser with 8k miles.  Only semi anomaly is that the truck had been sitting, uncranked for 6 days. Elec Stability Control showed immediately upon cranking, not while driving. No drivability issues, just the message. Battery didn't seem to be weak when cranking over.  I drove it, killed it, let it sit a few hrs with no avail.  Truck is 100% stock. No damage. 
    • This can be done.  It is not cheap and requires an instrument cluster swap with custom programming, new steering wheel with the controls on it, and a special jumper harness.   The cluster upgrade - 12.3” Digital Cluster Upgrade – 2022.5–2026 Silverado / Sierra (T1 Refresh Pickup) - WAMS   The wheel upgrade - Steering Wheel Upgrade Kit – 2022.5–2026 Silverado / Sierra (T1 Refresh Pickup) - WAMS   The column harness upgrade - 2019 - 2026 Silverado / Sierra: Steering Wheel LIN Bus Harness - Harness Dr. - DIY Done Right     The problem with doing all of this?  You pretty much can't have any programming done to your truck that involves the cluster ever again.  The dealer won't be able to program the cluster as GM's system will only pull data for the cluster the truck came with.  So it would be advised also to turn off over the air updates.   TLDR;  Should have bought an LT double cab?  You'd have a power seat, the wheel controls, the cluster, all things that you've been seeking in your various posts so far about your new WT regular cab.  
    • I was unaware of that, thanks for updating me.
    • Yes.  The 2.7 Turbomax has Active Fuel Management.  It is NOT the same as the V8s.  Totally different system.     Here is an article from GM when the 2.7 came out explaining the cylinder deactivation and the valve lift system.  Starts at the section called "SCS Valvetrain":   New Turbocharged 2.7L 4-Cylinder Engine Powers Full-Size Trucks – TechLink         This is an internet myth going around.  It was alleged that some 5.3s had this mystical 8th digit of the VIN as an "E" which somehow meant it had a new one year only 5.3 that didn't have DFM.  The writer of said article and the person that made the claim conveniently can't count because they posted the VIN.  The 8th digit was a "D" which meant its still the 5.3 with DFM.  The 9th digit of the VIN was an "E" and the 9th digit isn't the engine code.  At all.
