  1. Disagree with what? Who said there was no place for analytics?
  2. They just watch the tape and record relevant data, like the stuff you were talking about, analyze and present the findings to the coaches. The important part is what data you decide is important and how it is used.
  3. Wow did he really say Drew Brews and Nate Peterman in the same sentence!
  4. Yeah, Will Wohlford left in FA to the Colts and John Fina took over and wasn't as good. I think Glenn Parker took over at guard at some point too.
  5. In the years 1988-93 the Bills played 112 games, this amounts to a whole extra season (7 years total).This has to be a record! Anybody? It is no wonder that Jim, Thurman, Andre and Bruce amongst others were spent by the 94 season. Just think of all the pounding Thurman took during those cold January playoff games. I remember the Denver playoff game in 1992 that was a 10-7 win, but just a brutal physical game. Our only TD was a defensive score. The Broncos safeties Dennis Smith and Steve Atwater were vicious hitters who brought the lumber every chance they got. Thurman was very banged from the game. Truly remarkable to think of how much those guys sacrificed during their time. I just wanted to share a point that is lost in all the year. We were very lucky as fans during that period!
  6. Look we made the playoffs and ended the drought. Psychologically this is great for the franchise and its fans. It made no sense to get rid of guys who were contributing at the time in hopes of maybe getting a low pick. The plan will be different going forward.
  7. I would probably be a lot of peoples favorite poster, but I don't have time to post much...because I'm in high level business meetings a lot!
  8. He just jumped ahead of Darnold and Rosen!
  9. Are you Dunkirk/Chadwicks son? This isn't insider info, this stuff makes no sense. No interest in guys they're interviewing? Kyle is done and proved it....no interest? Untapped potential? Time for another extremely high level meeting with my shop manager!
  10. Kirk Cousins for 5 yrs and 125 Million with 65 guaranteed. We then can use our draft capital to fill holes from a very strong draft!
  11. 2 THINGS: what do we do with guys who have big feet and small hands or vice versa...take the average? Secondly, didn't Manziel have like size 15 1/2 shoes.....unfortunately he had an IQ of 75!
  12. On the cap simulations I've done, Cousins takes a min of 25M and 5 years with 55% guaranteed. Many times it takes closer to 27.5...just sayin! He's not going for 22 M.
  13. "It also told me that the league office was not as pure as I might have thought," This is my favorite part. He must have decided right then and there he was going to be on the inside!
  14. New town, lots more action for him and Chrissy!
  15. Like in the movie The Sting, "what do you want me to do ,call him out for cheating better than me?"
  16. The Pats do this and plenty of other things that are not really in the spirit of the game. Many would call it gamesmanship or being smarter than everyone else. I'm positive they've got a department in the organization that focuses on this type of thing and techniques that will/won't be called depending on the circumstances. Having said that, I've liked how the games in the playoffs have been officiated for the most part. I'm a fan who doesn't want too much involvement of the officials. If it is blatant or unfair to one side or the other or a safety issue.... well that's what the officials are for. It must be the old hockey player in me wanting the players to decide games. The only call I didn't care for yesterday was the first PI call, by the letter of the law ...maybe, just too ticky-tack for me. I think it is too easy to throw the ball up and penalize defenders, make the offense earn it more.
  17. The short answer is no. This is what I've believed, because I thought he would leave and go to the Giants. With it now being reported they want to hire Shurmur...I don't know where he goes. Sit out a year maybe...doubt it. I'm starting to think he might be back.
  18. I was just thinking isn't the game great without all the penalties!
  19. A team of ALL-PROS that are not from the Cheats may not be able to beat them in Foxboro with the NFL offices doing their thing. Sad truth is they'd like to not see Jax in SB.
  20. If they sign Cousins for something like 5 yrs 25 M he will be more than a bridge. They can then use their draft picks to plug the numerous holes.
