    I think as the Pats are currently constituted you are talking 5 years minimum and more like 7. Coaching in the NFL these days aged 76? Not sure I see that.

    I see it as long as he's healthy. He reminds me of the kind of guy that works his whole life and passes away 3 months after retiring. Just nothing else left. As long as he can, I believe he will

    Interesting fact: there have been 511 head coaches in the NFL, all time.

     

    THREE (3) of them have coached into their 70s.

     

    1) George Hallas

    2) Marv Levy

    3) Pete Carroll

     

    Pete has only done it for one year, as he turned 70 this season.

     

    Hallas and Levy are the only 2 guys IN NFL HISTORY to coach for multiple years into their 70s.

     

    Bill Belichick is 69 and turns 70 in April.

     

    The data suggests that the grind of being an NFL head coach catches up to you in your late 60s and these guys just can't do it much past that.

     

    What do you think?

     

    He's 38 wins away from topping Shula as the all time winningest coach. He's HUGE on the history of the NFL. Even if it would seem he wouldn't care less I believe he stays until he breaks that mark.

     

    EDIT: Corrected Number of wins needed. Had said around 50...turns out it's 38

    Texans Can Culley

    I actually thought this would happen from the get go. Culley seems like a good guy and a likeable person, was just a terrible situation. However, a year later and seeing a coach be 1 and done with that roster....gonna be difficult to get a good coach to come on board. 

     

    Though I will say I kinda liked Davis Mills the back half of the season. Kid is pretty decent.

    I can tell you that Muki had/has personal relationships with former and current Bills players. Shaq is one of them. If he’s telling you that Shaq wants to be back in Buffalo, it’s real talk. Maybe contract negotiations are holding up the move?

    I could have told you the same thing. Gee, wonder if a guy would rather sit at home or collect a paycheck with his old team in a locker room filled with a bunch of his friends and chase a possible Super Bowl.

     

    No disrespect intended to you or "Muki". However this is really nothing more than throwing stuff against ths wall and if it sticks it looks great for you. If it doesn't there's always "They just went another way".

    Fans should always have faith their team will win.  That said if we had Brady back there and had lost 3 of the last 4.. I’d still expect to crush any team we faced! That said we don’t have Brady, we have a rookie who is supposedly playing threw numerous injuries and still an unknown asset for the long term.  Meanwhile the Bills have an established QB who no matter whose list is too 7 in the league with a D that is pretty good. 
     

    In all honesty the Pats are like what Big Ben said of the Steelers. “ we suck and they are great so we just need go out there and have fun.” Aka all the pressure is on the Bills..

    Pats are paying with house money at this point, I agree. However, going out there and having fun kinda flies in the face of the "Patriot Way" a bit. 

     

    I think there is a LOT of pressure on the Pats...Bill Belichick is their coach. Everyone kisses the rings. Media has fawned over Jones all season. He's the "New Brady" according to some. And to some...these are the same 'ol Bills that will choke in the bright light despite what they have shown for the last few years. Being we have taken 3 of the last 4, pressure is on the Pats to step up. 

     

    Serious question: Has anyone never taken 3 out of 4 from a BB coached Pats team? Or 4 out of 5?

    So, Beane is grinding the tape and helping implement the game plan? Or, and hear me out...this is a BS Tweet that is kinda assuming that multiple people can't be working multiple things at OBD.

     

    This guy backed Massare with the "breaking news" and seems he is doubling down. These clowns have no real info.

    Raiders interim coach: keep or can?

    Depends on who they could get. If they were to hire a Leslie Frazier type (and nothing against Frazier here) then they may as well stay with RIch Bisaccia. Same steady influence that could bridge the team to the next phase.

     

    If they could get Harbaugh yo leave Michigan or some other guy that is a no brainer upgrade then you make the change. 

     

    I think in this case a well you take the time to ask the vets on the team what they would think about keeping Bisaccia and factor that in as well.

    Looking more and more that Massare floated this out after McD's presser yesterday as a "connect the dots" "reading tea leaves" kinda thing.

     

    No sources, he's "unpinned" the big scoop off his Twitter (but hasn't deleted). This way if Lawson does sign he can look credible. FWIW, I've heard he has done this in the past, but don't follow him so I don't know.

    Much deserved. 

     

    Now THIS may be a bit of and opportunity for Daboll. They have some weapons on offense. If healthy Kadarius Toney could be special. Daboll is used to having a garbage line. And not really insanely far from home. 

     

    Plus they may see enough in common between Allen from years 1 and 2 and Danny Dimes to think Daboll can make him better. I don't think so, but it's they Giants. They...aren't smart.

    Don’t like him. Glad he left. Knew he wasn’t worth that contract, nor the next contract and likely not this one. I-Me-Mine guy. jmo.

    IIRC when he left he made some rumblings about not being happy about the amount of snaps the saw on the rotation. So I get what you are saying.

     

    However perhaps him willingly coming back knowing how he may be used...maybe he's matured a bit. Failing a few spots and a few years older can work wonders to humble a fella IMO

    If true, love the signing. Was reportedly VERY popular in the locker room, brings a good energy and vibe. Talented at setting the edge and can even rush the passer from the inside as he did his last 2 years here.  Likely very low cost.

     

    If we play the Titans (and even the Pats this week) I want him out there ahead of AJE for sure.
