Huh. I thought he added quite a bit of talent in a very short amount of time, especially considering the talent level of that team when he took over. I know theres more to building a football football team than just acquiring talent. But I’m still a bit surprised. I felt like Dorsey at least brought some respectability back to the Browns. I mean, people were talking about them going to a freaking super bowl ffs. ?

I’m hoping we don’t lose him. It seems like he’s been good for Josh Allen. He’s making progress and I’d prefer not to disturb that. It’s far from a guarantee that the next OC will be as good/better for Allen’s development. And ill be pissed if the friggin Browns steal another promising coordinator away from the Bills just to fire him 1-2 seasons from now (like with Pettine, who shouldn’t have been fired). Personally, I think they need a veteran coach. The Browns organization isn’t a very good place for on the job training. They don’t seem to provide their coaches with the resources to grow on the job, and I think the Haslam’s have shown that they’re not willing to live with the growing pains that come with rookie head coaches. I don’t think this is the right job for Daboll... But, reading that Haslam and Depodesta are (supposedly) leading the search, I fully expect them to do something totally unexpected.

Please, keep him forever NYJ! ?

? thread police ? ?

I don’t know why so many are rooting for Daboll to be hired away and for Josh Allen + the offense to have to start from scratch with a new playbook/system, instead of being able to hit the ground running in year 2/3 of Daboll’s system. Isn't Josh Allen’s growth the main priority right now? And don’t most of us agree that he’s trending in the right direction and took some nice steps forward in his development this season? Well, how many times has he credited Daboll with being a huge help to his development? I think Allen’s continued growth is what makes this offense better, not necessarily a new OC. It’s not like Daboll wasn’t getting guys open. He obviously has room to improve as a play caller, but I expect him to continue to grow into that role. He’s young still, he’s smart, he’s willing to adapt and is open to player input. He also has tons of knowledge of many positions on both sides of the ball (having coached so many positions) that seems to be helping Allen with reading defenses and other nuances of playing QB. Id much rather have continuity on offense entering next season. Daboll has almost an entire new starting offense this year. I’d like to see what they could do with a 2nd year. The grass isn’t always greener on the other side.

It had to happen, but I still feel for all these guys and their families (especially the kids). Lots of people’s entire lives will be uprooted today. I know it comes with the job and these guys are well compensated, but still...

Definitely seems like a subtle shot at Allen/Darnold/Palmer to me. Baker doesn’t seem humble enough to train with someone like Palmer anyway, and have him critiquing every throw. Plus, it would probably interfere with Baker’s TV commercial shoot schedule. I mean, how is he going to film 17 new commercials if he’s out in Cali training all summer...? ?

He’s sooo thin skinned.

I’m guessing that he’s going to get to pick his own GM, or possibly even have some personnel control. Im also assuming (from what Rivera said he was looking for in a new job) that he got some assurances from Danny boy that he will be given full reign to change the culture in that building. Personally, I think he’s nuts going to work for Dan Snyder. But he could be great for that organization if Snyder doesn’t get in the way... (doubtful)

I have a netgear nighthawk too and agree with everyone saying they love it. It’s just a single WiFi unit, not a mesh network. We have 2 phones, 4 tablets, Xbox, PlayStation, firestick, laptop, smart TV and a blue ray that streams on another TV, all connected to the WiFi. I get much better internet speeds vs. my previous WiFi. It also covers my house much better than my old linksys WiFi did, and I get consistently high WiFi speeds everywhere on my property. It’s located at the front of the house and I usually get 120mbps internet speeds on the 2nd floor at the back of the house, or even out in my garage.

I thought that once again, Buffalo was the better team. Boston just has more talent. That was the difference. The sabres controlled the play for large stretches of the game. They made a couple mistakes and it ends up in the back of our net. That’s the difference. Boston has the talent to capitalize on those mistakes. Buffalo almost has to play a perfect game against the top teams in the league (like Boston) to get the win. The wins might not be there at at the moment, but if they keep playing the way they’re playing now, the wins will eventually come. At least they are entertaining to watch though. That’s a huge improvement over years past (sadly...). People just watching the score board only see the losses and miss all of the areas that this team is improving under Krueger.

KC touchdown!

Jets likely win this game but I wouldn’t be feeling too good about it if I was a Jets fan. They’re barely eking out a win against our 2nd and 3rd string players, and against our backup QB who’s playing awful.

Chargers making things interesting. KC 24 - LA 21 with 3 minutes to go.

Barkley playing like a backup QB...

I actually think Daboll is doing a pretty good job and I hope the Bills don’t lose him. He has his bad play calls, like any other OC. But overall I think there’s been more good than bad. Allen is trending up and seems to be developing pretty nicely. Considering how raw a prospect he was, I think he’s taken a pretty nice step forward this season. Allen raves about the role Daboll has played in his development. Daboll is giving Allen freedom at the LOS too. Not every OC is willing to give a rookie QB that much freedom that quickly. Plus, Allen loves him and so do the guys on offense. Beasley listed Daboll as a big reason he signed here. The Bills have basically an entire new starting offense. I’d rather see continuity for Josh and everyone else on offense. Allen is just starting to get comfortable in this system. I’d much rather see them be able to hit the ground running next season vs starting over with a new playbook + system. I’d rather them Be able to add to the playbook and work on perfecting the system. Personally, I think keeping Daboll for next season is what’s best for Allen’s development.

Lol at the Jets defense celebrating like crazy. Congrats guys. Our 2nd string offense is about on par with your 1st string defense. and our 2nd string defense is doing a good job shutting down your #1 offense.

I think he would be perfect for the Browns. They desperately need a coach that can come in, command the room and truly change the culture there. I think RR could do it.

I know they lost but I really didn’t have an issue with the way the Sabres played. I thought that Buffalo looked like the better team for much of the game. Usually it’s boston swarming all over the Sabres, winning puck battles, stripping pucks etc. But I felt like the Sabres were the ones swarming Boston much of the night. They just couldn't buy a goal, as usual. And they’re not as talented as Boston is at forward. Halak made some great saves, but the Sabres have issues scoring goals. They have for years. They were creating chances though. But they couldn’t finish. I have no trouble supporting them when they play like they did on Friday. It’s the games where it looks like nobody cares that really piss me off. I can live with a loss when I see full effort from everyone.

It’s new. It happened on a hit as he was headed off on a line change. I don’t remember who initiated it, Skinner or the Boston player,but skinner dropped his shoulder into the guy then fell to the ice and when he got up it looked like he was in pain. I am pretty sure its a shoulder injury of some type.
