Actually, we did run into Jason, but fortunately the Carrot Creature from “Lost in Space” was with us so Jason ran off crying like a wee girl…
What draws me to the left is my dislike of inequality, exclusion, etc.
I reject the pervasive idea that the rich are deserving of their wealth just as the poor are deserving of their lack of wealth, as if the factors that contribute to wealth or poverty are inherent in the person and not a product of an exclusionary system of institutionalized oppression, inequality, bigotry, etc.
Ultimately I want to see a government and an economic system that serves everyone equally. How that happens doesn’t matter to me, whether it’s through some form of socialism or an attenuated capitalist system with strong social protections.
Although it’s not exclusively a leftist principle, protecting the environment is another priority. I want to reverse climate change and protect the remaining wild areas of the planet. I want the creation of government agencies that are tasked with developing clean renewable energy sources and improved agriculture/crop technologies. I’d also like to see legislation and policies based on evidence and scientific principles instead of ideology.
Ok, so now this has moved from why I’m a leftist to a wish list (what’s a commie without a manifesto?) so I’ll end this here.
But Goff is completing a lower % of passes, his bad throw % is up, and his WRs have already dropped as many passes (13) as they did last year.
I don’t know if this is true, but it seems like the Rams are running less play action this year, and/or less effective play action. It would make sense given how the production in the running game has dropped way off.
Less or ineffective play action means LBs aren’t getting sucked up towards the LOS and DBs aren’t as hesitant off the snap. This means tighter windows to have to throw into. This could by itself could explain the decline in pass comp %, although it’s probably not the sole reason. Again, if it’s true.
