Not particularly all that. It’s better than some of the other gas station known brands like 7/11, QuickTrip/Kwiktrip, or Casey’s.

I’d say it’s on a similar level to Royal Farms. I prefer RoFo but Wawa has a little more diversity in their selection. They’ve got Hoagies, soup, sandwiches, sides, etc.

Granted considering it’s a gas station I’d say both would be somewhere around that Subway/KFC level for me- personally. I’d probably stop by a Wawa before I stopped at McDonald’s or Burger King. 🤷🏾‍♂️

RB Williams looks like hes about to start singing to my mans Justice Hill

 

*ahem*

Na na na na. Na na na na hey hey hey...

Goooooooodbye

Not surprising. Never felt Justice Hill had any quality RB vision. He was always just an athlete. Though his special teams prowess could still give him a leg up. Williams just has to close the ST gap some and the roster spot seems like it’ll be his to lose.

Justice was never a pass blocking back to become a 3rd down back as many predicted that draft. I believe we had 4 4th rounders and personally said if eve. 2/4 succeed, we crushed that round 

As I post this I was assured to check my math. I swore we had 4 picks, but it was only Ben powers, Iman Marshall & Justice Hill. Ben is still working as a good swing man & the other two unfortunately are becoming buried by injuries. Iman I had hopes for a good a lot corner for Tavon, but when opportunity arises. He becomes unavailable in the same nature as Young. Hill just can’t pass protect to become a 3rd down back. Sorry, I just haven’t seen that. As a special teams gunner, he might make the team as a 4th RB is we go light on interior D Line or ILB (Queen Harrison & Fort)

So I’m in NY & we don’t have wawa. My Company is a Pennsylvania-based corporate. We have never seen wawa come our way as “nice & easy or now circle K” have ran that industry of sandwiches & everything else along with gas. Yet I’ve bout a few gift cards down PA way for wawa For key employees as that is their go to.

If you wake up in the morning, look yourself in the mirror and say “Patrick Mekari is a viable option at backup tackle”...you need clinical help.

 

Wait what? I was dreaming. Come again Jeff

Our offense has had back to back redzone turnovers these past 2 games now. Harbaugh must be pissed. 

Also no Lamar or starters… the starters we especially lack at WR. I don’t mind keeping players fresh for real action vs any preseason. Keep Lamar out and give Huntley the last game.

 

almost loved Edwards as a late fantasy sleeper as well. Love Dobbins, but his price is high and if Edwards really gets a 30%+ share. He’s a steal as a 10th+
 

Continuing to average 4.5+even in preseason with not the best line due to health

He's our closer, a perfect system fit, and a North/South specialist who consistently breaks tackles. Also has enough wiggle and speed to be considered much more than a run of the mill power back. He's Gus Bus and he's a beast.

This is Varsity vs JV, could've been a tuddy too if Proche and Duve were better blockers.

Wawa does subs very well IMO for what it is.

During the summer they have “hoagiefest” and you can get a 10 inch sub for like $5.

Their hot and cold subs are a tier above a place like subway imo (which isn’t saying much), but they’re surprisingly good. Out here Wawa and sheetz are the 2 go to “food made to order” gas station places and Wawa is better.

And then you have Royal Farms chicken which slaps

Agree. Would definitely take Wawa above Sheetz, which is itself above many other gas station brands.

As I’m away from the East Coast, I don’t ever have a craving for Wawa hoagies, but I’ll legitimately have cravings for Royal Farms chicken.

If they had a potato bowl like KFC, it’d be game over. Throw some Old Bay in there and good luck.

1. Royal Farms
2. Wawa
3. Sheetz


 

7/11, Casey’s, Kwiktrip, etc.

The KFC bowl is a legitimate top 3 item in fast food and it deserves so much more respect.

Absolutely. Now you’ve got me thinking about what the top fast food meals would be. 🤔

In my opinion:

Double Quarter Pounder with cheese (McDonalds)

Spicy Chicken Sandwich (Chick Fil A)

KFC Famous Bowl (KFC)

5 Layer Burrito (Taco Bell)

Double Cheeseburger (Shake Shack)

Double Double with onions and animal style fries (In N Out)

Breakfast Baconator (Wendy’s)

Chicken Sandwich (Popeye’s)

Cookout Tray (Cookout)

Big Buford Burger with cheese (Checkers) 

[RavensfanRD]

Just came to say Taco Bell is dumpster. KFC is also dumpster and it didn't have to be. Their sticky BBQ wings from back in the day was god tier. Their bowls are OK I guess. Rofo and Wawa are the top two gas station chains. I frequent 7/11 though as its closer to me and they have great Body Armor sport drink deals. 

And... I'm still never about our offensive line.

Cookout Tray is god tier when the value is considered. Probably something like:

1. Cookout Tray
2. Spicy Chick-fil-A Sandwich w/Honey Roasted BBQ.
3a. Royal Farms Chicken
3b. KFC Bowl
5. Popeyes Spicy Chicken Sandwich

Those are all on my cravings tier. If I’m in a city with Cookout or Royal Farms it’s an automatic stop. And while everywhere has the other 3, even as a non-fast food type person I've got to splash on those items every few months.
