Watching your teams vs the All Blacks all the time is about as good a preparation for watching the Patriots as one can get. Granted I stick to Union, so I don't know if it follows in both codes. The only conspiracy we need is how the NFL allows Kraft to pay Brady through TB12 and avoid the cap hit. It really frees up room for them to keep solid depth and take chances on other players.

I think people on this board speak negatively of Cam as though it somehow makes McD look better. That team is a mess offensively and he is the least of their problems is the injured Cam. I don't even like the guy, but this is getting as weird as when people praised McD for his work with Cam and they're not even on the same side of the ball.

I'm not overly optimistic that they get this done. A total OL overhaul is going to take at least 2 offseasons and enticing high caliber players in those other positions won't be easy. We might end up like the Jets with little progress and a ton of money left over. I really hope I'm wrong. Don't forget they signed the worst rated tackle and he didn't even last the season.

Mugging the WRs to try and force a challenge flag is risky. Especially if they win.

People are pushing for PI to be reviewable. Again, I'm not advocating for it, but that's what they want. It's unfortunate that the play happened, but that doesn't mean the staffing wasn't idiotic. Making a mistake that doesn't get caught doesn't really excuse the mistake.

The game replay rule already exists and I'm not advocating for it. I've just thought it was always off that people went after Goodell. New rules and change happens through the owners, not him. The only thing I would like is maybe a trial of the college overtime.

I agree that the lawsuits and politicians are stupid. I don't know why people don't petition the owners because that's where a rule change will happen.

And when the local favorite happens to be a big market? It's pretty clear that the league messed up. Probably one of the worst no calls I've ever seen. One ref waving off the other, clearly not tipped, and the helmet to helmet. It looked like NFL Blitz.

That sweet mid range target Allen needs. Works really well in the areas Allen is best at passing to.

Anybody who read all the texts can't be shocked by this. Richie wasn't the only one saying terrible things. Not making an excuse for that terrible locker room though.

10 yards less isn't really impressive considering the short fields most teams started with. The red zone defense was terrible and they struggled stopping the same runs over and over.

Usually experienced HCs develop other coaches, not guys who are still struggling to learn their jobs. That being said, if he can cut back on penalties and make sure they know their jobs then it's a big win.

My biggest hope is LT and then move Dawkins inside. They need at least 1 more guard on top of C and RT.

I assume it's would you rather have this current team or a new coach. I'm not sold on McD and this team is still at least 2 offseasons from being good. So I don't want this current team or coach. It's sad, but this team is still trying to get back to the Marrone teams level of skill.

Sass is all I have in life. Pray for me.

Don't let your bias get in the way.

As long as all his throws are over the middle but shorter than 20 yards is what he meant lol.

You should probably pick a side and stick to it. Either McD missed or Whaley missed. I personally think Mahomes, Darby, Edmunds > Allen, White, and Edmunds. Even better would be Glenn in there.

There needs to be major upgrades to the roads and other mass transit to support a downtown stadium. It would be really cool to have a waterfront stadium like Baltimore, but I'm not sure they can do it without ruining the other updates the city has made. Canal side and the outer harbor are really coming along and a stadium there would probably just take away from that. If they can figure it out and not try to bankrupt the city that would be awesome.

Doesn't matter who is on that team until they fix their line. Keeping the GM that created the mess was probably not the best option. I'm assuming they think the similarity to Mahomes would entice the new coach to start over.

I don't think he is any better than the other names listed, he just hasn't been traded or signed by another team yet. Retention was the biggest failure of the last 10 years and the last purge doesn't help that image.

Both are good to very good.

The cost alone would probably price people out. Buffalo is unique and you take that away without the tailgating. Some of you apparently want this above all else, but I know that a lot of people enjoy it. This team has been miserable for 20years and no comfy seat would keep the stadium full for that long.

The bills do. It's going to be much harder to fill a stadium without tailgating. For better or worse that is a huge draw.

I think it's pretty well documented at this point that nobody listened to Whaley when it came to coaches. Russ Brandon was running the show.
