Couple more thoughts...

1. The look on Karli's face when John is shwacking her guy in the street. It seems like more than just "he killed my friend" and more like she is just now realizing the stakes of this thing she started.
2. Would have liked to have seen John give himself the dose of SSS. I mean I figured he was going to get it at some point...but to do so off screen just didn't play well for me.
It is one of the reasons I am iffy with Falcon ended up with the shield.
Dude is woefully underpowered to deal with people like this... even with the falcon wings. And his H2H skills are not the best,
I keep hoping he is going to take the SSS because he is also a "good man" and it wouldnt break his brain... just so he has a chance out there lol

IDK.. spoilers:end of spoilers
He held his own pretty well enough against the wakanda warriors, the best warriors on the planet, and pretty damn well in the super soldier fight, so he's a capable enough fighter, getting the shield along with the wings would also be a pretty decent upgrade. I remember reading his CA comic a few years ago where funny enough he had a fight against US Agent, and he was able to defeat him, not through brute strength and such but, by being crafty, evading and taking his shots. Maybe they'll lean into that, Sam doesn't have to be the strongest in the room just the most resourceful
I would be shocked if Falcon doesnt end up as Captain America or at least have the shield.
The show is being as ham fisted as possible to make that apparent.

Widow is a much better fighter than Falcon
And she still got WRECKED by Winter Soldier more than once. She avoided fighting any powered things.
Ditto for hawkeye... all his fighting is ranged. T'challa wrecked him too.
I mean we saw walker, one of the best soldiers the US has, with the shield, and dude kept getting wrecked lol.
MCU power levels still have pretty clear lines and enhanced dudes like cap (rip), tchalla (rip), bucky, new super solider peeps, ect are just a tier above normal dudes like falcon

If he had more actual powers like he did in the comics, maybe he'd be more formidable. I mean, he can fly, so he should already have an advantage over the bare-bones super soldiers
I guess so but I still kinda roll my eyes at BW and Hawkeye managing to defeat highly advanced aliens with medieval weapons

Simpsons skewered stupid 80s actions tropes almost 30 years ago. So why are they still around?
