NoSaint Posted February 10, 2023 Share Posted February 10, 2023 2 hours ago, Augie said: I just heard Josh Jacobs interviewed at the SB. Asked which locations he might enjoy outside of Vegas, he listed all the tax free states. That is a very real consideration. Plus, the Jags have a real QB which helps make a WR coach look better. Plus zay Jones 43 minutes ago, SectionC3 said: Didn’t Josh, after Beasley returned, say something to the effect that there were concepts we didn’t run this year because nobody besides Beasley (who is in the autumn of his career) could run them? Not a good look for Hall, and maybe for Beane. But it may explain part of the thinking in not renewing/extending Hall. I can’t say our guys behind diggs showed a ton of poise on the field. Not sure whether underprepared or they’ve overcomplicated the system. No one would confuse Davis, or McKenzie as being particularly quarterback friendly at the moment though. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I imagine the Bills want to get better YAC from their guys, and Tampa was one of a few teams that had two guys in the top 25 in YAC this year. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There should be some sort of cap adjustment for teams in states with higher taxes. I agree the playing field should be leveled somehow. I have no suggestions on the best way to accomplish this, other than eliminating state taxes from the cap accounting. I think they have to pay taxes in the states where they play/earn paychecks, but half your games are at home so that matters more than road games. When we moved from tax free FL (state taxes only of course) to GA my wife got a 6% raise to account for state taxes. Surely the NFL can come up with a way to level the competitive disadvantage. It can be done. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBrownBear Posted February 10, 2023 Share Posted February 10, 2023 (edited) He's a Southern boy married to a Southern gal. Maybe he just got tired of living in a Northern state and all of the differences (weather, geography, culture, politics, etc.) from where he spent most of his life. Also, Jax is a team on the rise and he gets to learn under an Andy Reid disciple as opposed to the relatively inexperienced Dorsey. Probably a lot more career stability working under Pederson than Dorsey at the moment. The move makes perfect sense for Hall when you think about it.

Let's hear your thoughtful analysis on how the Bills have overlooked something so obvious to your astute eye, something that would make McBean and Terry smack their forehead and say, Doh! Why didn't we fire this guy instead of that guy? For God's sake you don't know everything, quit being a petulant crybaby The bills have reasons far beyond what we can see for what they do, and they make plenty of sense with the extremely limited information we have unless you want to stamp around and make this place unreadable as it has been the last 2 weeks 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HappyDays Posted February 10, 2023 Share Posted February 10, 2023 I can't pretend that I care about positional coaches. Aaron Kromer was supposed to whip our OL into shape, and instead they turned in a miserable performance for most of the year. I don't blame Kromer, you can't magically turn bad players into good players. I can't imagine any WR coach is really that much better than any other, there are no secret techniques that Chad Hall taught. So, whatever. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrEpsYtown Posted February 10, 2023 Share Posted February 10, 2023 I mentioned him before, but Ricky Proehl is set to coach as an assistant in the XFL. I would think he gets a call. I hope they don't go here, but David Culley could get a re-dial. Cam Turner could be an interesting fit as a younger guy in the game. He worked under Dorsey and Proehl in Carolina and is Norv Turner's nephew. I'm good with this if he brought Deandre Hopkins with him from Arizona. As much as I don't like him I kind of wish they would think outside the box and bring somebody like Steve Smith in, somebody with some fire and passion.

PatsFanNH Posted February 10, 2023 Share Posted February 10, 2023 3 hours ago, arcane said: And what significant development took place in the WR room that tells you he wasn't part of the problem? Our WR play has been terrible the last few years outside of Diggs and Beasley, both of whom were who they are when they got here. Well you have 1 WR runs a great route but drops the ball a lot, not sure how a WR coach fixed that.. and then you have a bunch long shots like 98% of the league not called the Bengals.
