Josh makes THEM the punk B word!

Mac Jones is a punk B word and learned this dirty move from the ultimate punk B word, Tom Brady. Know who isnt a punk B word? JOSH ***** ALLEN Josh runs over dudes, jumps over dudes, or stiff arms them into the ground. You will never see him pull a B word move like this.

Side note: Can you imagine what this season would look like if we had Tre and Hyde healthy through the entire thing?!? No way we don't end up 20-0, right?

Yeah, I deleted my post entirely, lol. He's still listed on PUP on the Bills site so I guess nothing has really changed yet.

McVay was young, but he never coached college. He was tied to Kyle Shanahan's offense (father, HC Mike Shanahan). And it should not be forgotten that Sean McVay's grandfather was Jack McVay, Head Coach of the Giants in the 70s, and GM for the 49ers through the 5 Super Bowl run in the 80s-90s. So yes, lots of nepotism. The issue being that nepotism rooted in a time when the league was only hiring white coaches. This is how systemic racism gains and keeps momentum. To many outside observers taking things at face-value today, you could certainly say "This is merely nepotism!". And that is mostly true. But like it or not, those strings of nepotism go all the way back to times of racist hiring. So still racism at the core of the problem.

The Peter Principle: People in a hierarchy tend to rise to "a level of respective incompetence": employees are promoted based on their success in previous jobs until they reach a level at which they are no longer competent.

And 5 of the 8 came from the Sean McVay "inner-circle" of frat boys. 🤣

I tend to agree more with LDD that this is the monster the NFL has created, but for different reasons. By being such media whores and wanting to dominate the air waves always being on TV or Radio, or social media. By being so shady in their league office practices. And by having seemingly zero accountability for poor officiating. I dont think they should try to restrict any and all player/ref contact. But they shouldnt be surprised if/when a "story" like this catches fire. I'm sure Roger appreciates the clicks and isnt losing sleep over it.

Sure, technically it is more a nepotism issue nowadays than someone in a 2022 NFL Front Office saying "No Blacks". However, for a loooong time the NFL avoided hiring black coaches. And now, we have a nepotism issue where teams favor hiring the sons/grandsons of coaches from when they DID say "No Blacks". So guess who isnt included in those nepotism hires? Outside races. So it is indirectly and inadvertently a race issue. Nuance.

This makes more sense. All I need to hear is that the ref went to A&M. THAT is already a bigger conflict of interest than asking for an autograph considering how tight that Aggie Alumni network stays. It makes absolute sense why those two would be talking and chumming it up. Much ado about nothing. edit: Some of my favorite comments: "He probably asking Evans to sign the petition to get Jimbo fired" "Tampa receivers already planning for the offseason" 🤣

That has way more to do with losing Davante Adams than losing Nate Hackett.

It's silly to think he had anything to do with that offense, and that it wasnt completely Rodgers and LaFleur. Exactly the type of thinking that puts an incompetent person into a high profile HC job.

You nailed it. He failed his way up based solely on who his daddy was. And his daddy was a crappy coach too!

Saying "the last place Patriots" is VERY satisfying.

He's no Breece Hall. All that matters.

Another year or two and they'll be ready to trade for Russell Wilson! I thought of that briefly as well. But I think Reich is best off going to Jacksonvile and being OC under Pederson again. Coach up Trevor Lawrence. I think I'd rather simply promote Joe Brady for OC at this point.

We havent seen Keenum run the real offense, with all the other starters, actually trying to score. Tough to make that assessment at this point.

Yes, everyone know we need OG help. But you cant just conjure what doesnt exist. And right now, there are WRs and RBs available for trade and no OGs. If you know of an OG who is available, feel free to mention them here or in the OG thread. Otherwise, we'll continue discussing what is actually available. And we are 1 hard hit over the middle away from losing Diggs or Davis. You can never have too many WRs. We saw it last year when we lost Bease and Davis at the end of the season.

Agreed that it's not a great look, but I dont see it as a big deal. Also, this isnt even their main, full-time job. Refs make decent money, but it is a secondary, part-time job for all of them. It's ridiculous that the NFL doesnt make it a full-time, primary job and get these guys in camps and workshops more.

14-0 from here and straight to the parade. LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Dont ever reference the GDT. What happens in the GDT, stays in the GDT thread and does not reflect reality. It's why many of us stay away from the board completely on Sundays. To the bold... well, ok man. You can disagree with what we've all seen with our own eyes. Even classic homers like myself.

I just went back through the first 8 pages of this thread. There were a lot of complaints and detractors. Not a single one suggested to cut McKenzie. One poster mentioned using him in a potential trade package, but that's the most extreme suggestion made. What the rest of us have said is that he should be moved back to #4 or #5 WR, and only used situationaly, like on jet sweeps. At least until he can prove himself again. That is literally how McD got such a great game out of him in New England; benching for mental mistakes that helped him find his focus. He had a good game last year. He has a long and diverse history of mental errors as well. Give Shakir a larger role, and let McKenzie earn his way back in. Is that unreasonable? Do we disagree that much?
