Marrone wanted complete control and Whaley out. Pegs said no. Marrone has a hissy fit and left thinking he was a lock for the Jets job. That's the actually history.

Kyle.

Mean it this time, please.

Like this site. And liked BBMB. Was on there for years without a single infraction. When you signed up for either they gave you rules. Follow the rules and you were fine there and fine here

Just terribly sad someone would go to such absurd lengths to garner attention.

The OP is clearly mentally ill. It's cruel for the mods to be supporting his illness.

Anyone of my age would say yes. If you had to live through the 70's you'll hate the Fish until football is no longer played.

$$$$. My source, which is me just being logical, says they will trade picks if they see a guy they label as a can't miss type. And if not that then Cousins. His personality and style fit with McD and they'll spend the $$. Probably Cousins.

True. It's just ridiculous at this point. Especially the James one. If he was a runner it's a TD but not if he's a receiver. And the Benjamin one there's no point even having refs make calls on the field if you reverse a guy standing right there making the call.

Every ref in the NFL knows the rule book backwards and forwards. This is about judgment calls, and there will always be human error associated with that. having guys be full time won't change that. Having rules that make sense would help. I mentioned above but it is beyond absurd that the ground cannot cause a fumble if you're carrying the ball, but it can cause a pass to be incomplete. I wish they'd do away with replay altogether. Accept that in a sport as fast as football some calls will be wrong. Back in the day before all the technocrap they calls tended to even out anyway.

The Colts should have beat them last week. And the Colts are way worse.

Don, take some much needed advice and consult with a health care professional. It is tragically sad that an adult would go to such lengths to get attention.

Rather than fire officials, make the rules simpler. If you have the ball in your hands, it's a catch. It's absurd that the ground cannot cause a fumble but it can cause a pass to be incomplete. You grab a guy, it's holding. And so on. And get rid of replays. Every sport has an element of human error associated with it when it comes to officiating, and it's past time to think you can get every call perfect.

You don't need that much help. All you need is for Cinci to Beat the ravens.

Bottom line is that no one has any idea if any of the guys coming out will make it in the league. The above poster says he wants Rudolph. About a month ago I read an article on the ESPN website where two scouts said Rudolph would be a day three pick, if he got drafted at all. So opinions are all over the map on any of these guys. Easy to say we need to find a really good QB. Much harder to actually find one.

It's all nonsense. We all know that. Sad that someone feels such a need to draw attention to himself.

I expect a win Sunday. Cutler will fold like a cheap suit once again, and guys like Suh aren't the types to put forth maximum effort in a meaningless game. If the Bengals come to play for their coach's last game, we have a shot.

If Beane and his upgraded personnel team think that one of these guys is a can't miss type, then they should use whatever picks required to move up and get the guy. But if they don't see a can't miss guy like that, then find the best FA QB you can and use the picks to build the lines. I think they'll maybe draft a guy with one of their first round picks. Maybe Allen or Mayfield. I don't think they'll see any one of these guys as a can't miss prospect. I think it's more likely they'll sign Cousins. In the recent si article on him, Cousins is all about process. I think his philosophy and McDermott's would be a perfect fit. That way they can use the picks to build their lines. To me, as much as the QB issues we've had for 17 years, the inability to be strong up front on both sides of the ball has led to the lack of a playoff spot.

I 'd take him over Kelso.

It is all nonsense. Come on folks.

This Dunkirk dude is a fraud folks. Anyone with an active imagination could post what he's posting.

It's blatantly obvious now. The league wants the Pats in the Super Bowl. Two refereee calls on the field with the play right in front of them, one yesterday and one against the Steelers. Both call touchdowns and despite needing incontrovertible evidence to overturn, they each get overturned and as a result the Pats get home field for the playoffs. And overturned only after an inordinate amount of replay time. Not only that but yesterday through the entire first half no penalties and the game is close. Too close because somehow in the second half we start getting penalties but the Patriots don't. The Pats are better than us, true. But the way they refs called the game just makes it obvious that there is inherent bias. The league should be ashamed and Terry needs to speak up. If fans start to realize en mass the games are rigged the league will suffer.

No penalties first half. And now because it's close all of a sudden they get every call.

Then don't watch them. I will continue to watch and root for them as I have for 57 years now.

One of the all time greats. A shame that he's gone.
