He was good insurance who provided solid depth at all three interior line positions. Assuming Bates is the left guard going into camp, hopefully there is some else can take that role. Ike?

Every signing, done at the right price and at the right risk-reward level, can be a good signing. So, if that is case, bring him back.

If he truly is that impactful, I would go the 3rd.

GOOD! I hate the overseas games. Unless we are the away team, then its a good thing.

And yet with all that emphasis and extra roster spots for gunners and all, and we kick it through the end zone with 13 seconds left? .... Oh, never mind.

Honestly, that really would not worry me. Brady has to be behind an all-pro level line these days to stay effective, Miami does not have that.

I still think Watson will end up in New England. Bill B knows Jones is not going to get it done for him. He won’t sit on his hands hoping something good happens. Yes, D. Watson to NE could very well happen.

I have no strong opinion about the rotation, other than I would like to see Ed Oliver on the field more. But, one player that gets overlooked and his injury last year made a difference is Justin Zimmer. He has quietly become one of the most consistent interior d-line players. Having him back next year improves the line, even if no other changes are made. To me, he is the Ryan Bates of the Defense in that all he does when given the opportunities is play well. Maybe not flashy, but productive.

Is that like …. oh, never mind. 😛

What did I just read? And, why???

Is he now "retiredized" ?

If our line stays the same, it’s still a very good line (at least the iteration over the last four games and playoffs). Thus, given this choice, I go for the “premium” pass rusher. He moves the overall needle more.

Bates has already been targeted to replace Morse. The time is now. Sign C Williams, and cut Feliciano and Morse to make room under the cap and improve your line. Yes!

Yeah, it seems obvious. His name is always mentioned, but ne never gets to that "serious" consideration level. There are flaws, probably a combibation of all the things you mention. I don't know him, so this is not fair, but the original article of this thrread basically is saying he is just not a very nice or people-skills smart human being. All the other issues could be overcome if you have the personality and social (emotional) intelligence to handle them well. Apparently, he does not.

What was his take on the Bills and the Super Bowl? - link ?? Is that why I'm not suppose to like him?

Back to McDaniel: I like the guy. He brings a freshness to the role. Yes, he is a bit odd compared to the typical NFL Coach (compare him to McDermott--the contrast is comical). But, he is the new wave. He is unconventional. All things that keep it interesting. But all that matters is winning on the field. If he does that, he'll be a smash hit. If not, he'll be fired in a few years. I hope he continues Miami's patterns of the past few years: the dominance of the Patriots and utter disaster against the Bills.

On the other hand: Bieniemy has been the hot coordinator for the past 3 years. He has been the next guy who should be getting a head coaching job, right? But he has not. .... Why would Daboll be a better pick than him? Well, there might be some obvious reasons he's not been a serious candiate for a head coaching position. Interpersonal skills are important. Maybe, just maybe, that's why he's not a HC? .... If you go on merit, is there any other OC over the past few year ahead of him? Answer: No! So, why no HC opportunities???

Kind of like winning the AP poll before there was a college football playoff system.

America is tired of the Cowboys. Cross them off. Maybe the BIlls, but 49ers, or Green Bay, would also be interesting. And I would not count out the Patriots. However, trying to be unbiased here, I do think the Rams vs. Bills would have a strong national appeal.

We are now officially on to the 2022 season.

That is funny

Is it this weekend or next?

Unless you’re from the Boston media; then, yes, you’re utterly clueless.

While our guy was a Pro Bowl Alternate: It’s still a world filled with injustice. When will it end?

That’s a normal track work out for distance runners. They try to find the pace/time they need to have for their meet goals. Or, if you're a football player, you use it to get in shape.
