  1. I know their defense hasn't only been bad this week but they did not have two of those guys tonight. Tonight they were down their best DL (done for the year), their best LB, their best CB and their best S. All of the former all pros. You can't just "next man up" your way out of that. (Plus their LT and their QB, two more 1st rounders and former all pros).
  2. It's totally irrational. I think I hated that Andy Reid team in the early 00s and almost of the players on it. It has stuck since then. Same way as I loved Drew Brees and so will always have a soft spot for the New Orleans Saints.
  3. That ownership is not stupid. This is on injuries.
  4. And also while normally I say you decide if your guy is the guy and if he is not you fire him, if he is you keep him - never make decisions based on who might be next..... I have a real struggle putting together a shortlist of 5 or 6 guys I wanna interview for a Head Coach job next January if I'm a struggling franchise. I think Stefanski can coach and keeping him means keeping an elite DC. The one black mark against him is he was the one pushing them to move on from Baker. That looks a really bad call in hindsight.
  5. Oh I think Howie is incredible. But I still hate him. He works for the f***ing Eagles!
  6. I hate the team. Everything about them. Hate them. Hate them. Hate them. I cheered for the Patriots in two Superbowls and the Chiefs in two others because I hate the Eagles that much.
  7. Miami won't fire McDonald. I'm sure of that much.
  8. I can't make myself care about the Broncos and I hate Philly.
  9. I'd be surprised. It is coming at some point. But I don't think that is this week.
  10. Im turning off redzone and going direct to that Miami game.
  11. Not quite ready to stay that, he could hang around as lower ceiling starter. But I think the idea he will develop into a true franchise guy is seeping away.
  12. I think the Bo Nix fascination has been and gone. Teams have worked him out now.
  13. Bryce Young trying to take time outs with none left lol.
  14. The Jets are hilarious. I think @Gugny called in 3 weeks ago. Glenn is out of his depth. Got 1 and done written all over him.
  15. We called sneaks.
  16. Two things I will say for sure: 1. He isn't as good as Sean McVay; but 2. If he had called the 4th down run McVay did on TNF we would have people here calling for his immediate firing.
  17. It was fractionally late and Keon did a nice job on that rep, no doubt. He had separation and room to make the catch. But it was also a great play by the rookie safety. Sometimes you just have to tip your cap and say the other guys get paid too.
  18. Maybe. Obviously OCs are dependent on talent at Quarterback, that's for sure. But as long as you give Brady a guy who can play he'd churn out results that are commensurate.
  19. Dorsey had success for about 20 games. Then it fell off a cliff very quickly. Brady is a better play designer and a better play caller for the NFL in 2025.
  20. I think Kyle knows that offense better than anyone. And it has developed somewhat from the Mike version. McVay is a derivative of the Kyle Shanahan offense. And his record of shutting the Rams down is pretty good.
  21. It has also long been the case that the person who best knows how to stop Sean McVay's offense is Kyle Shanahan. Which is because it isn't really McVay's offense. It's Shanahan's.
  22. I just don't think Davis has the vision that Cook has. I know not everyone on this board agrees but it is to me the #1 attribute for a running back in the NFL. James Cook has elite vision. Jonathan Taylor has elite vision. Saquon Barkley has elite vision. Derrick Henry a bit less so but he is something of a unicorn anyway. In a world where offensive linemen are generally lighter and more mobile than in the past you don't get as many pure roadgrading offensive lines that just blow people off the ball so running backs who see gaps as soon as they appear and can scamper through them before they close up again are increasingly valuable. I didn't love Davis's vision in college and I think he has missed too many gaps in the NFL too. Do I accept it is hard to get to the speed of how quickly you need to recognise gaps before they close if you are getting fewer than 5 touches a game? Sure. But I don't think it is a strength to start with.
