  1. The complaint lost me from the first two paragraphs. What's the point of the BB text, and then invoking MLK Jr. and Harriett Tubman? One thing is certain: Brian Flores will never ever coach in the NFL again.
  2. I'm not going to pretend to know anything about OC candidates who may be floating around out there, but I want someone who knows the system and terminology, and, everything else being equal, I'd like it to be more of a "players coach" type of guy like Daboll who can serve as a friend/mentor and serve as a buffer between the players and the CEO-like McDermott.
  3. You realize these guys are human beings and take offseason vacations and stuff with their friends families, right? Even obsessive weirdos like Tom Brady did. If they didn't, they would burn out and be out of football in five years.
  4. That's where I'm at. I don't like Brady, but I grew to respect his accomplishments, and what he continued to do the past two years at his age is just unbelievable. He was smart to go out on top while he still had some ability left, instead of being shown the door as a shell of his former self. I will admit being a little sad since I could still pretend I was "young", so long as an old fart like Brady was out there tossing TDs and making the playoffs.
  5. What do the colors and the sizes of the circles represent? Hope it's not "package" size for Tannehill's sake.
  6. "Jim, with that back left pin position, Allen should be laying up with a 5 wood to the right side of the fairway, not playing hero ball trying to clear that fairway bunker with his driver."
  7. I agree and it wasn't like he went out of his way to mention his time at Michigan or his HS coaches either. He retired from playing as a TB Buc. He already did his spiel for Boston when they chose not to re-sign him a couple of years ago. Now, if he doesn't mention NE in his HOF speech, that's a whole other story...lol.
  8. And if Mahomes repeats his second half performance from Sunday ad infinitum, he'll go down as the worst SB winning quarterback in NFL history!
  9. They do. It's called The Open Championship. It's played every year in the UK and on at least one of the four days, the morning pairings play an entirely different course than the one the afternoon groups are faced with.
  10. It's clickbait. She's not a super model. She's a 40 year old IG influencer. Still, that's quite a catch for a 65 year old dude. Good on Zim after what he dealt with losing his wife at a young age.
  11. Yeah, that was a pretty glaring omission.
  12. Pro Bowl or Pebble? HMMMNNNN...Josh made the easy choice here. Also, I hope Josh picks up everything inside 5 feet, so Kurt Warner won't complain about Josh not taking the gimmes.
  13. True. In that case, I'd like prime Urlacher too. He'd look great in this defense.
  14. Okay, I'll play the game. Mortgage the future for Myles Garrett. Cleveland is going nowhere with Baker and will need to stockpile picks to go after their next franchise QB.
  15. Raiders are coming off the playoffs and would not trade their best defensive player. A guy who's only 24 and has two years left on his rookie contract.
  16. SNL sucks these days, but Kate McKinnon is legitimately funny. But yes, that's a terribly grating ad.
  17. Correct. And it gets their foot in the door. Even if they don't get hired, if they interview well, word will get around to other GMs around the league. Rooney Rule is a win/win for the league and it's minority coaches. Martin's only been there for one season. And Marquise Brown did just put up his best season as a pro by a fairly wide margin.
  18. Just hire Horsey already ya big dingus!
  19. You might end up being right, but that's a lot conjecture right there and doesn't align with McD's history. Frazier was a former head coach with a long track record as an above-average DC. Daboll had multiple stints as a playcalling OC. If anything, McDermott seems to lean on guys with a lot of experience, which may be why we let a promising young coach like Dorsey get away.
  20. John, he's referring to the week 5 game. And I agree with you, no desire to watch the playoff game again.
  21. They gave up 550 yards in the biggest game of the year! You don't often see those kinds of numbers outside of Alabama vs. Northwest Arkadelphia Tech during week 2 of the CFB season.
  22. Yeah, I texted that to my folks during the game. Multiple times where he completely turned his back to the defense while running backwards and often right into rushing lineman. His final play in regulation is maybe the worst I've ever seen from an experienced, HOF QB in his prime (though I'm sure Favre had a bunch that were similar...lol). It was so situationally braindead. I couldn't believe it.
  23. Dude this is such a histrionic, over the top, and factually incorrect take, I'm not sure how to respond. 13 seconds was a travesty, but beyond that everything you've written is gibberish.
  24. "If the defense held the offense to very few points early then it doesn't count because the game wasn't contested." That's not what I said at all. I said they played especially well when teams were made one-dimensional. And sure, they deserve credit for getting an early stop or two combined with the offense for putting teams in early holes. Complementary football is what McDermott is all about. I think the good DVOA numbers are reflective of the way that the Bills utterly dominated one-dimensional offenses and green QBs (See the Jets and Davis Mills game). And yes, I agree that the defense, McD/Frazier, deserve credit for devising schemes/plans to destroy those teams where some others failed (See Belichick against the same Davis Mills). But check the record against diversified/balanced offenses. Outside of the Pats games and first Chiefs game (when they were still scuffling), it was mostly a struggle - Bucs, Titans, Chiefs, Colts. We played a ton of TERRIBLE offenses this year.
