Your elected officials don't owe you an explanation and you don't owe your wife explanations either I suppose. Are you saying that you're not interested? It's obviously not broken our fandom, but how can we know that anything has been resolved if we don't know what happened or why? How can they learn from it or be better if no one knows?

I disagree Ned Flanders

I lost interest for a while in the NFL with the tuck rule. Didn’t help that we were only toes deep in the drought but for it to be so blatant and wrong was disconcerting. But it’s not just the NFL. Everybody got into it. The UFC in the 2000s when St.Pierre smothered the top of his head in petroleum jelly to pass guards. Baseball in the 90s when it was obviously juiced. Then, ironically, I was just getting back into MLB when the Astros cheated.

Let’s see. Something positive. Something positive. 🤔 Oh I got it. Wentz has the ability to make 2 amazing throws a game.

If we have to stew on this for a year, the very least we’re owed is an explanation. And McD robbed us of that by, best case scenario, trying to protect Frazier and our ST coach who was rumored on his way out anyway. I honestly feel for Frazier. Without 13, the blemishes on his record as DC were minor. A few blowouts over 3 seasons were easily overlooked. Not to mention the organization he played for was hiring and a reunion seemed a sure thing.

Fellas, fellas. Please. If we fight over foo, we will unwittingly have become

Send him to CHI with a low pick for Mack. Not a like replacement, but it gives them a young LB with “potential.” Gives us an LB who isn’t stood up by 5’6” RB3s on blitzes.

Murray would be much better off in a non-contact sport. Pitch counts, over a 4 hour game, with plenty of rest between games? Sounds like less overall injury risk for a game in which height doesn’t matter as much. Also MLB players make more money on average AND their contracts are guaranteed. Sounds like a no brainer.

If they won the Chiefs game and completely laid an egg in the AFCCG, Frazier still would have gotten a HC job. 13 seconds was the high school equivalent of farting in gym class and then running for class president. He was only going to get pity votes.

As long as the Owner, GM, and coach can’t agree on something as fundamental as QB, they’re not a threat.

The Saints HC job was the one that Flores actually didn’t want. That should tell you something.

It is genuinely sad to see that McDaniel's heritage is getting called "not enough" on Twitter by people who only judge based on skin color of a team photo.

Gotta love how the entire NFL's front offices stuck their heads in the sand after the lawsuit was announced and kicked the can along to all the other NFL teams with coaching vacancies saying "YOU hire a minority." The Raiders, Jacksonville, and soon to be Vikings and Texans saying "you didn't mean US." Like roommates walking past the full garbage can on the way out the door.

No reason to fix the Pro Bowl. It is not a competitive game because there is nothing to gain. Asking players to risk their livelihood for no real reward is hilarious. Unless there's specifically worded protection built into every NFL contract, it is a significant career risk for what amounts to a preseason game check. Might as well ask why Salvation Army bell ringers aren't commission based jobs. Makes about as much sense.

Hiring an unqualified former QB over established minority OC/HCs would be the ammo Flores and his lawsuit needs. Very Texans of them.

Show me the baby. Tired of hearing about being a FA destination. Unless Sanders comes back, he's not even proof.

If the Pats do this, the Jets trade for Jimmy G, and the Dolphins hire a cracker jack HC, the division will be guaranteed 6 wins for years to come.

I can relate. I mortgaged the house to eat at the Bacchanal Buffet in Vegas and thought it wasn't worth it.

We would need these rumors of suddenly being a FA destination to be true. Perhaps we can speak it into being.

Why is there no regard for other minorities? Women? Age, sexuality, disability, and veterans? Shouldn’t there be a quota for them as well?

Assuming the Flores lawsuit is correct and the NFL is knowingly allowing racist hiring practices, wouldn't the easiest solution be to have the Saints for example offer him a job? Just how much credit are we giving the NFL? They're just smart enough to set up a sham system of diabolical racism, but too stupid to think one step ahead? Hubris is one thing, but avoiding a drawn out investigation and bad press is another.

the Stat That Hail Murray one

Now I can watch the Super Bowl and not care who wins. There’s no fans of either team that I know so apart from gambling, no one will be taking the game serious. Going to be refreshing.

Daniel Jones has talent. We’ve seen flashes. About as many flashes as Jimmy G, and he was just in another conference championship game.

Live by the terrible checkdown, die by the ill timed checkdown.
