Frank Gore signing with Jets
Kirby Jackson replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I kind of do actually. It feels like Gore is one of those guys that will play until he doesn’t have a job. He doesn’t really care where. He’s kind of an “exception” guy. Gore is already in the HOF in my opinion but racking up more yards won’t hurt him. -
Frank Gore signing with Jets
Kirby Jackson replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
That’s probably a decent place for him. That locker room lacks some heart. Gore can’t play anymore but he’s an ideal veteran option for a team that’s lost otherwise. I didn’t think I’d say that signing Frank Gore was a good signing for someone but think that it is for the Jets.- 90 replies

25 Best of all Time in the NFL !!
Kirby Jackson replied to T master's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I didn’t say what they did was right. The whole point is that they still have 9 Super Bowl appearances and 6 titles in that span. The cheating helped them but they still crushed teams. The Deflategate game was 45-7. If it was 31-28 people would be irate. It was a massacre. The rules that they broke certainly helped them but they were historically good either way. -
way way way too early 2021 nfl draft SWAGS
Kirby Jackson replied to maryland-bills-fan's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I’m irrationally biased towards guys that destroyed Ohio State. He was unreal that night. That kid will be a special pro imo. He’s as exciting with the ball in his hands as just about anyone. -

Kirby Jackson replied to T master's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
It’s not like what the Houston Astros did. A semi-deflated football isn’t the reason that they beat the Colts 45-7 in that game. I’d call pretending that was the reason for winning “mental gymnastics.” The Astros still have a championship too and what they did was infinitely worse. I can’t believe that I’m defending the Patriots here. I’d cheer for North Korea against them. With that being said this alternate universe that some try to create to discredit them is absurd. It doesn’t make us look better; it makes us look worse. When you get beat for 20 years it sucks. Pretending it didn’t happen makes you look like a child. Take your beating, as we have, and hope that one day you switch roles from the nail to the hammer. I suspect that day has arrived and am excited about it. -
Talk of no alcohol at NFL games this season.

I’ll probably sneak in alcohol too!! -

If those mental gymnastics help you sleep at night go for it. I’m not going to attempt to rewrite history to meet what I wish would have happened. They’ve certainly pushed the boundaries of what’s acceptable. They’ve certainly played in 9 Super Bowls and won 6 with BB as their HC. Both of those things are true. -

25 Best of all Time in the NFL !!
Kirby Jackson replied to T master's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Fair enough but there were 7 or 8 teams in the AAFC. That doesn’t carry the same weight as a 32 team league IMO. -

It’s both!! That’s the point. It was both for all of those guys. The salary cap era is way more difficult to win consistently. They had to make decisions along the way that other franchises didn’t. They lost Seymour, Law, Milloy, etc... Brown, Walsh, Shula, etc.. never had to do that. They could keep their best talent together. They all won with great QBs. We can’t pick and choose when it’s the QB and when it’s the coach. Belichick just won more and with more difficult situation. -

Yep and Brown/Graham won 3, Walsh/Montana 3, Shula/Marino 0 and Belichick/Brady 6. So basically those other tandems would have had to produce the same output over the next 10 years (ie 30% of the Super Bowls) to keep pace. BB did that while turning over the roster and coaching staff. I’m sorry, but there really isn’t much of a debate at this point. I hate Belichick. I find him to be smug and condescending. With that being said, I’m over trying to discredit his incredible career. Tip my cap and move on. Hopefully he hangs up the whistle soon. -

Brown had Otto Graham, Walsh had Montana and Shula had Dan Marino. All of those QBs also made the NFL 100 QB list. It’s not like those guys won with bad QBs. We all hate BB but let’s not pretend that he’s anything other than the best ever. He has had more roadblocks than anyone else (just the nature of a hard salary cap). The system is designed to level the playing field. He has won more big games than anyone else despite playing in that system. -

When teams had no turnover it was WAY easier. It’s the Red Auerbach argument. He, like Paul Brown, deserves credit but it’s much easier to win when your team is always better. BB doesn’t have that luxury in the salary cap era. In fact, he has it harder than other contemporaries. Team’s that win consistently end up with players who are overpaid to leave. Guys like Nate Solder and Jamie Collins come to mind. He has also turned over parts of his coaching staff a few different times. The Patriots are constantly tweaking things to remain at the top. -

Belichick is still 1. I hate him but he has been to 9 Super Bowls and won 6. He’s won 31 playoff games. He did this in the free agency era. It’s BB and everyone else. -

Belichick has to be number 1 -
On order of when they should go up (only guys that I’ve seen): - Bennett (WAY overdue...the 4th best player on the Super Bowl teams in my opinion) - Brown (overrated or not he played in 8 straight pro bowls and was a 4 time All-pro as a member of the Bills. If Richter is up there Brown DEFINITELY is) - Moulds (3 pro bowls, 2 all-pros and dominant stretches) - Kyle (heart and soul of the team, 6x pro bowl) - Schobel (better than Hansen, 78 sacks, 2 Pro Bowls) - Fred (Leader of the team and consistently good player) - Moorman (2 pro bowl, 2 all-pro and best community guy in franchise history) - Takeo Spikes (short stretch of dominance)
-
Can I throw Rueben Brown out there? His career was far superior to guys like Richter who are up there.

So I fired today at Oaklawn. I got killed...

I’m literally the exact opposite at this point. The Peterman nightmare aside, they went a little bit against the grain. They targeted the high upside, low floor prospect. As of right now, Allen looks like the guy to me. He wasn’t the one that I would have taken. I wanted Rosen or Baker. I think that Josh is better than both. Fromm has a chance to be a quality backup or asset. My feelings on the likelihood of that are documented but he was good value there at a position of need.

Bleacher report predicts Bills record 11-5
Kirby Jackson replied to BruceVilanch's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
This is where I’m at. In fact, I’m more confident in the division title than the 10 wins. I’m having a really difficult time finding a path for anyone else to win the division. -
This play was one of the first to pop into my head. The juke and behind the back at the same time was pretty incredible. Barry Sanders against the Bears is probably 1. Barry probably has 1/2 of the top 10.
