    Question for the docs posting, and thanks for sharing your expertise it's much appreciated.  What should we conclude, if anything,  by Allen running off the field to the locker room?  I would have thought if he was still "loopy" they would have had a trainer escort him rather then let him go on his own.  Should we be more or less hopeful that this was a minor concussion?

     

     

    Hey, not a Doc, but have had several concussions myself. For one of them I got my bell rung running through 1st base. Was a little dazed, but felt good enough to go pitch the next 3 innings. Come the 4th inning, everything went blank and they had to basically carry me off the mound and the next 2 days were miserable.  

     

    So, while you could be right, in the fact that it could be minor and they were being precautionary by making him go to the locker room, but it is also entirely possible that 2 hours after the game the symptoms hit him like a ton of bricks. Fingers crossed it's the former and we will see 17 lead us to victory this week!

  2. Currently, I don't really think there are any out-of-division rivalries, however, I'd love to see a rivalry with Cleveland spark up over the next few years.

     

    Baker vs. Josh

    2.5 hour drive - Both teams have passionate fan bases that will make that trip easily

    Teams that have been down on their luck for the past decade that could now be on the upswing if everything pans out

    You really think he was worth 3.5 million in cap space when we have so little and so many needs. He was a good wr4-5 but not worth 3.5 Million when you have little cap to spend.

     

     

    Our WR options are now KB, Zay, and Andre Holmes. Being that he was our speed guy and was somewhat productive last year, yes I think he is worth 3.5. This team is sorely lacking in the receiving core. No matter who we bring in, they are going to cost money and cut into the cap. I would rather spend on a guy that I know can be productive, rather than hope the draft gives us a solid option. Also, considering we might sell a ton of picks to move up, our WR options could be limited to a late round selection.

    Huge hire IMO. I think he was unfairly fired this past year after the Texans D tanked. He is responsible for the development of AJ Bouye into the player he is now.

     

    Was rumored for our DC job before it went to Frazier. There is definitely a McD connection here though I can't remember what their link is. Pretty sure we tried to get him here last year and Texans blocked it.

     

    They played high school football together, Butler graduated in 91 and McD in 93

  5. Here is my theory even though it is most likely extremely off base...

     

    ESPN has yet to name Gruden's replacement because they have been tipped off that BB is done after this year, and would be interested in jumping to the booth to stay in football. 

     

    It would give ESPN more credibility and gives them a guy in the booth that would provide tremendous insight into the game.
