good post!
people forget that during the patriots dynasty, teams like the broncos, colts, and Steelers would sneak by the pats here and there.
A lot of times is wasn’t because those teams were better; often, some other team upset the pats, and paved the way for those teams to get to the SB.
would be nice if we had some luck like that, and someone else taking care of the chiefs for us.
Agreed. I don’t think this is an indictment on him as a coach. I actually was a doubter of EB, but I felt like he did some really good things in Washington, and I am coming around on him.
I am thinking of Benitez when he was that new raw guy who would come in in the 8th inning to set up John Franco.
he was such an exciting player then. But I agree that when he shifted to being a closer, it was too up and down.
also, how about some love for Dennis Cook?! Cookie was the ying to Wendell’s Yang. Loved those two guys!
As an aside, I used to be a die hard Mets fan, and was always a fan of Mahomes Sr.
I think I was always drawn to these middle relievers for some reason— loved guys like Turk Wendell, Dennis
Cook, and Armando Benitez from those late 90s Mets teams too!
Ugh, bad loss. Wake pretty much dominated in every way possible. Offense, defense, inside, outside, transition, rebounding, physicality, speed.
not sure I have seen as thorough a beat down as that.
it is an interesting idea to Shift Taron to safety and play with Williams, Bernard, and Milano on the field more— or at least use that package more often.
i do think though they are going to need to sign or draft more safeties regardless, and I really think we need a better backup to Taron as the nickel. When he is out, the entire defense Can’t function.
But aren’t these players potentially taking spots away from other college players who could really use the exposure?
if these college players don’t want to play in the game, then don’t accept the invitation, IMO.
If you are going to the senior bowl and all the practices, you shouldn’t be able to opt out of the game. It should be a requirement for the invitation.
They are 100% keeping jones and I suspect will pay him good money, with maybe an out after 2 years. He is a risk with age, but a risk worth taking.
Shaq and Phillips probably back on the same 1-year vet deals.
i think everyone else walks.
i wonder if this could mean, in part, that Josh was less accurate and/or the receivers’ routes weren’t as accurate— which could be a reflection of running new stuff?
What was pitiful too about those games was how there would be “fans” in the stadium wearing random jersey shirts from teams that weren’t even playing in the game!
9 turnovers is insane; how is that even possible?
I haven’t seen that game since it aired (for obvious reasons), but now am curious to go back and watch it.
(I do remember one of the SB’s against Dallas, we were up at halftime!).
