Agreed. There was no way we could content in the post-season, as mediocre as we were in the trenches on offense, and as inconsistent as were in the trenches on defense without Von. It would have been one hell of a fluke. O-line personel need a shake up. Kromer needs a kick in the ass and Saffold needs to pay back the wages he stole and get the ***** out of town. Dline coaching needs to improve too, up to and including giving Washington his pink slip. We've got 21 UFA and the D needs new ideas and new schemes. Frazier has the perfect defense for carving up the field in the regular season, but come the playoffs we fall on our faces. We need a new DC who doesn't rely so heavily on disguising zone coverages, and can develop some creative blitzes. Beat people up, the post-season isn't officiated the same way as the regular season.

Daboll was more creative, more unpredictable, more pragmatic... and he could force Josh to play within the structure of the offense. Chuck n Duck Dorsey... jesus christ... does he even read the self-scouting reports from the Offensive Quality Control staff?

1. Fire Frazier. 2. Fortify the o line. 3. Repeat step 2. I'd be alright with us taking Brian Flores from Pittsburgh. At least we'll go down swinging.

I'm alright with Leslie Frazier getting canned.

Same. It's like a moment of Zen.

Russia's current tactics focus on using squads of Wagner mercenaries to constantly probe Ukrainian defenses. These guys are loaded down with as many shoulder fired rocket launchers as they can carry. They're recruited from Prisons and penal units, so Wagner views them as completely expendable. Usually they get massacred, but as they did around Soledar, they sometimes find a soft spot in Ukrainian defenses. Or live long enough to make one with all the RPGs, themobaric rockets, and god knows what else they're carrying. Then they're rapidly reinforced with additional "Cannon Meat", to use the Russian phrase. If they make real headway, they get mountains of artillery support, and then the real Wagner Operators show up to finish blasting a hole in the defense. That's how Soledar was taken if I'm piecing it together right. These tactics are incredibly "manpower intensive". Which is odd, because Russia is supposed to be sitting on tens of thousands of Soviet surplus tanks, apcs, and ifvs. And Russia's demographics are ***** horrible. They should be leveraging these massive stocks of Soviet vehicles to increase firepower, limit losses, and improve mobility. Which makes me think either the stocks dont exist. Or they do exist and Russia doesn't have the industry to bring them back online in quantity. Or they've switched to pelting the Ukrainians with "Cannon Meat" while they try and spin up their war industries and rebuild something like a modern, mechanized military. My guess is the last one.

It's when defender stays deep on a receiver to keep them from getting behind the secondary. Then another defender will cover man to man or follow the receiver's route.

Anyone else want to the Jags win just to watch the Chiefs Kingdom meltdown?

Well that sucks. I thought Anfield or the Etihad would be up for it. That and Liverpool/Manchester are much more friendly on the wallet than the city. I'd love to pay for a pint with a tenner and get bills back in change. Hope springs eternal.

Bart Scott- Ex Jet Rob Ninkovich- Ex Patriot Damien Woody- Ex Patriot Does the NFC not produce any pundits? Is the media only allowed to hire big market players or guys with ties to Bob "Happy Ending" Kraft?

One day, the NFL will play a game north of the Watford Gap. Maybe. Who knows. The north isn't really allowed to have nice things.

Folks have told me I'm argumentative and disagreeable. So I'm going on the record stating that was a good read.

They did the last play of the KC game. Rushed 3, then dropped 8 into a split field coverage resulting in a pick.

Why though!? Cincinnati is one of the few franchises left in the NFL that's won fewer honors than the Bills. They've got zero rings, we've got zero rings. We've won four conference titles to their three, 13 division titles to their 11, we've got two pre-merger titles to their zero. When your franchise is quantifiably less successful than the Bills, you shut your mouth until reality is on your side.

Daboll, and it's not even close. The beginning of the Sean McDermott coaching tree.

It's alright. Dorsey's already finished his game plan.

The first hands down blowout of the post season, and it's Brady and the Bucs. Maybe Tom was in a hurry to console the lovely Miss Veronica Radek, his new gf?

And it's not like Cincy won on a 99 yard fumble return off a backup Ravens QB.

There are times where I miss Greg Roman's designs for screens and runs. When he gets clicking its a sight to see.

Preach.

Yeahhhhh. Chuck-n-duck isn't a game plan.

I am. You'd think we lost. Miami plays us tough under McDaniel. So what. He's a .500 coach that limped into the 7 Seed. We're not going to revamp the roster to beat Miami. That said, this OL needs work in the off-season. Josh needs to be a bit more 2020 and a bit less 2019.
