McCaffrey on his way to SB MVP if niners win

Not happening unfortunately (for the story value)
Word is they're going with Zimmer
Rex keeps missing out lately. Denver last year and Dallas this year.
-
he keeps interviewing and not getting hired (Denver just last year) so I doubt it happens.
It's weird to me, because for some guys like Rex the "interview" is a formality. You either want him or you don't, so why bother if you aren't going to hire him?
-
so which game will be exclusive to this new service next season?
We got off easy with Peacock, which cost next to nothing for 1 game. Not so much this time around.
-
if we had our way Tua would be a multi billionaire on a 20 year guaranteed deal and Tee Higgins would be offered $5 by the Bengals and become an UFA

McNabb had a career completion percentage under 60%. He only broke a 90 QB rating for a season 3 times.Bill Belichick is Walt Michaels without Tom Brady.
Plus, people are comparing the two coaches at different points in their careers.
Belichick had his superstar all-time QB early in his career, whereas Reid finally got his when he was 60+ years old.
I really hope Reid continues to coach until he's 71 or 72. Then let's compare Reid at 72 to Belichick at 72, where he is now.
IF Reid's still active until age 72 he will hold every single statistical advantage over Belichick except (maybe) SB rings. Plus he has a pretty successful coaching tree of guys who went on to win a lot of games and even Super Bowls (including hopefully McDermott!)
Belichick has Brady and a bunch of awful coaches, outside of Vrabel who did all right in Tennessee but nothing spectacular.

McNabb was a pretty good QB as well.
McNabb was decent but not spectacular.
For comparison, Kirk Cousins has better stats (more yards, more TDs) and is still active and will only pad his lead on McNabb.
Reid also won a lot of games with Alex Smith. Smith was so-so and largely considered a bust until he was paired with Reid and at least had some success.
Alex Smith once went an entire season in KC without throwing a TD to a WR, just for reference.

Just now, Logic said:
I posted an article from The Ringer on this forum not long ago that came to two very convincing conclusions, which it backed up with data and charts and everything:
1.) Generally speaking, the later it gets in a game, the worse Tua plays.2.) Generally speaking, the later it gets in the season, the worse Tua plays.
So me, personally? I'm fully on board with the Dolphins giving big money to Tua. He's a very good -- borderline elite -- September and October quarterback. Once Thanksgiving hits and onward, he folds.
He's just good enough to give you hope, and just bad enough to repeatedly break your heart.
Give him all the money. Sign him for all the years. I'm here for it.Word was that he was a little banged up by the end of the season, which makes sense. He's a smaller bodied QB, and running that offense relies on having his track star WRs also totally healthy.
Inevitably, one or both of those WRs will get dinged up, miss games or just be a little bit slower, and the entire system stops working.

Reid was pretty good without Mahomes.put another way, Reid was a borderline HOF coach before Mahomes ever played a down.
Reid will be seen as the true GOAT, IMO, IF (and this isn't guaranteed) he coaches until he's 71 or 72.
In other words, let's compare age 72 Andy Reid to age 72 Belichick and see about win totals, etc. It's very likely that he passes Belichick to have the most playoff wins of any HC in history (he's 6 behind now). It's also likely that if Belichick is done coaching and Reid coaches another 5-6 years he will break Shula's all-time record for HC wins. He probably won't get 6 rings though, so there will be a debate.
All-time HC playoff wins: Reid
All-time HC regular season wins: Reid
Coaching tree: Reid by a billion
Success without Mahomes/Brady: Reid was a top 10 in HC wins all-time without Mahomes, Belichick has done squat without Brady
SB Wins: Belichick
So it will be a real, robust debate, but I think the overall body of work, especially without each guy's superstar QB, is in favor of Reid.
This is all of course assuming he continues to coach until he is the age Belichick is now (he's 5 years younger).

well, if they're truly engaged it won't be a secret for long
Good for her and Josh if it's true. That means they're happy, and so we should be happy for them, especially for Josh since he's our QB!

Bernard
Benford
Shakir
Torrence
Kincaid
Oliver
Groot (sometimes)
Cook
Allen (of course)
Lots of young guys making plays all over the roster. Von Miller contract is killing us, because we could be in a spot to give a 100M contract to a free agent WR to go with Diggs, Kincaid, Cook, and Shakir to really put this team over the top.
This year we wended the season without our stud LB, his backup, or even his backup's backup.
Next year we'll have Milano AND Bernard on the field at the same time, with Bernard proving he is more than capable after being pressed into action.
-
You can't say we're being mean, because we're rooting for the man to become the highest paid QB in history, preferably with an iron clad fully guaranteed contract!

A ring for the king

It feels like fumbles used to happen a lot more in general than they do now. Guys almost never fumble now overall.
I know it does happen, and did happen Championship game weekend to the Ravens in particular, but I mean especially RBs. Even the great ones put the ball on the ground (not often) but a lot more than you see now.
Turnovers in general seemed higher. It's part of why a 14 point lead used to mean game over.

I don't get the love for Dan Quinn. At all.
Mediocre retread.
I was certain with all the HC openings that Florio would have been going ballistic in his annual demand that someone hire Eric Bienemy.

Cry like a blubbering baby
then, marvel at the fact that Tom Brady, the monster under my bed, the bump in the night and the shadow in the hallway of my football fan life, called the Bills first Super Bowl win and very likely would be all excited for us.
It's a confluence of Karma that is too strong to deny. Bills win the Super Bowl in New Orleans next season.
This is the way it had to be. The bane of Bills fans existence providing the commentary for our first SB win.

Saw this and thought it was cool:
Josh Allen, Bills fans, the team, and the city are well respected and loved throughout the league. We have something special here that not every team/fanbase has.

I went to the Commanders' board and there is a lot more to all of this. He told them this while the Commanders' owner and GM were on the plane en route to Detroit to interview him. This after last year essentially accepting the Panthers job and then deciding to stay in Detroit at the last second. This is not a good look for him. Albright is reporting that he is asking for $15 million per year. FWIW, I feel for those fans. It reads like a drought-ear coaching search thread around here.
He has to be careful not to overplay his hand.
Opportunity doesn't come along often.

it just hit me:
February of 2025, Tom Brady is going to be calling the Bills 1st Super Bowl victory!

Terry if McDermott loses in the playoffs yet again without making the Super Bowl: We have the right coach in place, we've been knocking on the door, just need to find that last pieces or pieces to get over the hump
Terry if the Bills miss the playoffs: McDermott has done a ton of winning here, changed the culture, deserves a chance to make up for 1 bad year
McDermott is as secure as any coach in the NFL.

I get what he's doing, and it makes some sense. But remember when Brian Schottenheimer was too good to even interview for the Bills HC gig because he was such a hot HC candidate and had so many options?
