Can you show me that? Honest talk. I haven't seen anything of the such and am curios to make sure I have all the angles.

If he's there late, I don't see how a flier could hurt in order to have him, develop him and see if he turns into anything. Best case scenario we end up with two good QB's and trade one for a bounty. Worst case, we blow one of our 5th rounders. Although, If he shows out well at the Senior Bowl I doubt he's there past 4. People are going to, unfairly, compare him to Allen cause he's a monster with a monster arm. Allen's early success actually probably helps Jackson's draft stock quite a bit. If I had to guess, he enjoys making a butt ton of money essentially working the tax season. Plus, he gets to coach purely Quarterbacking. Working for a team would force him into helping coach offense and not just mechanics.

Isnt Gainese similar to Phillips? Good 1 tech, but lacking in the pass rush department?

I think it really depends on what “type” of WR they want. I really like Debo Samuel, but I want some size in there somewhere.

Good! Keep him working hard! i wouldn’t mind Jackson in the 5th-6th round if he’s there...

His WR rankings are interesting to me. Just looking positionally he has: Marquise Brown DK Metcalf Riley Ridley N’Keal Harry AJ Brown No Kelvin Harmon is a surprise. I also haven’t seen much love for Riley Ridley over guys like Butler, Harmon, and Arcega-Whiteside. The other day on his podcast he compared Ridley to Michael Thomas. That would be a good pick for us.

Im sure they could, but it would be ridiculous. His race is nowhere in any part of that tweet. He just has freakishly long arms!

I don’t disagree that NO could have won regardless of the no-call. But that argument misses something critical- the Championship game is literally two of the 4 best teams in football. It’s meant to be close. It’s meant to be a game in which each play matters. It was. This wasn’t us bills fans crying about a holding penalty on the patriots 4th scoring drive of the 1st quarter when we have 3 points. This literally was the play that decided the game. This game was so close that any mistake would have ended it. And it did. LA made a mistake and blew coverage. It was a touchdown, or at least a first down. The decision to take the penalty was probably smart by NRC since he was beat, but it doesn’t change the fact that this one play determined the game. The Saints got a second chance in OT and blew it, but they shouldn’t have needed it. They had won the game within the rules, and the rams went outside of the rules and were rewarded.

Not that it really matters, but the joke must be made that this guys tiny hands would cease to exist after attempting to catch an Allen fastball.

Also a hundred other calls: Replay is a Pandora's box already. We either have it, in which case this travesty is the perfect example of why everything should be reviewable, or we do away with it entirely and eliminate the mess.

Seems like the only way to make it fair is to make it a coaches decision. That way, if his team gets screwed it's his fault for not doing something about it. Have it be a separate challenge flag, or an additional challenge, or keep it the same number of challenges. Make it only applicable to pass interference, holding, roughing the passer. Have the ground crew send it to someone in NY whose not even aware of what the call was/wasn't. Coach has to specify his complaint: "#23 just raped my wide receiver and all of you dumb asses missed it. Challenge" There's two problems with not changing the current system: 1: Human error happens too often to not be held accountable. This isn't the replacement refs. This is a team of highly paid professionals that literally just stole a teams chance to play in the Superbowl because they were too busy wondering if the stripes make their ass look fat. 2: When the league decided that all reviews run through NY, they de facto stated that they have no confidence in the on field refs. If they don't trust them to make a correct call/correct their wrong calls, why should we be forced to trust them on purely subjective calls such as PI and holding?

Over/under on trades? My guess is over 3, under 6. Moving up and down.

That guy has a supremely punch-able looking face. I can't post because my computer is being slow, but Joy Berher and the other worthless ***** of the view admitted that the media is quick to jump on stories to slander trump because they want him out of office. I.e. political grandstanding before truth. At least they're being transparent in their bull####.

I'll drink to that. I want nothing more than for them to blow them out of the water.

Argument could be made that the chiefs did as well. I'm just saying, the weak spots that I see in the Rams (inexperience, getting rattled in tough spots, emotionally driven) are the exact weak spots the the Hood loves to put pressure on.

You know better than that Yolo. Individual players mean nothing when it's the Patriots. I don't think the Rams have no chance, but I have less confidence than I would like. I didn't really think the Eagles had much chance last year either, so hopefully I will be surprised. Also, The Rams Defense scares me in that they're a bunch of emotion based knuckleheads who seem out of control sometimes. Late pushes by Suh and Donald will get called against Brady. NRC mugging every receiver he's lined up against will get called. Marcus Peters forgetting he's playing football and being horribly out of position will get exploited. Aquib Talib running his mouth and being chippy will get him in trouble. Obviously that's all worst case and I hope I'm wrong. But the fears are based on too much reality.

Goff worries me. He had a good game against the Saints, but the couple of times I've seen him rattled (Chicago and Philly come to mind) he has looked like steaming hot garbage. And if there's one thing the Sith Lord knows how to do, it's rattle QB's.

By taken to the whipping post I mean losing to an inferior team. That's what I mean by wasting talent. Also, on that note, the most offensive thing that Andy Reid did the other night is stand and watch in overtime as (there was even a moment where CBS focused on his face and he was standing there dead-eyed) his defense got carved up and worn out, all the while holding three timeouts and not using them. If I'm the owner of that team, and I watch my coach rush subs onto the field to play a first and goal and the one while the guys already out there can barely breath, and the scoreboard shows three timeouts, I would be beyond pissed. That's a great question, and I have no answer to that. I am not saying that he will assuredly be fired, my initial post was that his seat was warm. If he can't produce next year, or worse, if he has a team fit to win it all and his coaching is what holds them back again, then I think they ought to look elsewhere because that's literally been his entire career. Honestly, I have always liked Reid, but he has never done anything to show the ability to win when the chips are down. At some point teams are going to have to ask what they are looking for in a coach. Reid's protege went to the Superbowl and won it in his second season with the Eagles (beating the very team that Reid just lost to). There needs to be discussion about whether or not winning regular season games is enough to make someone a good coach. Mike Tomlin is the winningest coach in Steelers history (I believe) but for the past 5 years he has had incredible talent and hasn't won when it matters the most. At what point do teams get tired of coaches who have been good enough to stay, but not good enough to take the next step? Would you rather be a fan of a team that has all the talent needed to dominate but comes short every year and they keep their coach, or be a fan of a team that throws caution to the wind and brings in a new guy because the old guy plateaued. do you even have to do detailed film research to know that they're going to throw it to one of the two white guys? Come on. The lack of adjustment was ridiculous.

Woah. I had no idea... Shows how little I paid attention during that god-forsaken tenure. My mistake. I revoke my guarantee.

I don't agree. I think he showed that he's good enough to not be good enough. Success is a subjective thing. It isn't success to reach the championship game and then get taken to the whipping post when you have a MVP quarterback, the best offensive player in the NFL, an all pro TE, a good offensive line, and a Defense that does the two most important things right (sacks and takeaways). The problem is that Reid has been out-coached in every big game he's ever been in. That's a fire-able offense. I admit that it's unlikely they make a move, but honestly they need to at least be considering it before they turn into the Steelers. If I'm a GM, wasting talent is more offensive to me than losing without talent. This is a team that made the playoffs with Alex Smith playing good football. When you take that team and add a historic season by the QB, it really does become Superbowl or bust.

I don't know if anyone has a way to document guarantees to be revisited later on this board, but here's one: If Rex is hired, Ronald Darby will sign with the Chiefs in the off-season if he hits the open market.

He'll probably move up the board like Anthony Miller did last year. Hopefully the abundance of big body receivers will keep him lower and we can snag him in the third.

Ryan wold actually make some amount of sense there. Not sure about the personalities though. You gotta figure that Andy's overly large butt is getting a bit warmer after coming short with that stacked team (and it wasn't just the defense that failed). His playoff reputation is garbage, and he needs to do something - hiring Rex in a season where you need to show you can make the next step is definitely a ballsy move.

NOOOO! I wanted him to fly under the radar and we pick him in the fourth.

Bodine is the one non-Teller/Dawkins starter that I wouldn't absolutely hate having back as a starter. I would love to replace him, but I know getting three new starters on the line can be hard to do.
