  1. Aside from the weather, if he was going to keep playing, family, more notably Gisele, probably had something to do with that interest. Miami is quite common for travel options to/from South America. I’d imagine much easier for her Brazilian relatives coming in for a visit (or vice versa).
  2. Even when the team actually wins, It’s always a little surprising to me that anyone but the team would even want this stuff. Only season specific achievement shirt I’m buying would be for a super bowl win. Im not walking around with some division winner or AFC championship shirt or hat to serve as a reminder that we didn’t finish the job that season.
  3. I’m confused. Isn’t that article written by an Eagles fan? I get why he’s interested in a division opponent’s HC hire, but, other than that and sticking up for a former eagles reporter/radio guy, why is he taking up for the NYC media here? Just seems odd, but I’m sure I’m missing something.
  4. https://www.houstonchronicle.com/texas-sports-nation/texans/amp/Brian-Flores-gets-second-interview-with-Texans-16819548.php
  5. If it goes down, Flores shouldn’t need any other proof than this for his lawsuit. No way in the world you can tell me this guy with zero coaching credentials is the best guy for the job. The only problem is that the Texans have become a joke of a franchise and the strongest candidates don’t seem to be remotely interested, so he may actually be the best remaining guy for the job.
  6. 🤮🤮🤮. What a tool.
  7. I’m good with it. Wasn’t sure if McD would ultimately opt for experience calling plays over continuity. Argument to be made for either. At the end of the day, McD has earned the benefit of the doubt with me on this promotion, and if Josh likes it then I love it.
  8. Not surprised so much by the former since it is fairly common around the league, but really surprised by the latter. Like with Daboll, Josh will be a king maker for more and more people as time goes on. Usually, people are trying to hitch their wagon to something like that. Why anyone would even entertain leaving us should be pretty telling about how McD really feels about that person.
  9. Not surprised or torn up. Up until the last month of the season when they FINALLY played Bates, I was ready to move on from Johnson.
  10. Love the Williams pick. The past couple years it has been evident this team needs to infuse more speed into the team. He has that in spades. I love that he also has some size and essentially takes care of our returner woes. I also love Olave. Guy is as smooth as silk. Easily looks to be the best route runner. A little slight of frame, but the dude can fly. If someone takes Williams ahead of Olave and he’s there for us, I’m taking him no questions asked. London is an incredible catcher of the football. Great hands catcher, shielder, and high point guy. He can get down the field, but he looks to lack that top end speed and suddenness Williams and Olave offer. I wouldn’t hate the pick, but I would prioritize Williams or Olave over London simply because I think they have more of what this team needs - speed, speed, and more speed.
  11. No, I wouldn’t hire him or any other defensive coach to be my head coach. Regardless of how successful they are. That’s not to say I don’t think defensive coaches can be good head coaches. I do. And for the most part, total body of work, McD has done great here. That said, my personal preference is to lean toward hiring an offensive minded head coach so we aren’t constantly replacing OCs due to success.
  12. Not looking good for Leslie to get another shot at HC this cycle. Fair or not, those last 13 seconds undid all the good from this season to most decision makers.
  13. Aside from Payton (which ain’t happening), the rest of that list, to quote @Sherlock Holmes, is, ”🤮”.
  14. I agree. We are basically looking for a new head coach of the offense. He’s good and creative in the pass game. Former HC. Experienced play caller. I honestly don’t think McD is too torn up if Dorsey leaves. Not because he doesn’t appreciate him, but more because he’s never done it before.
  15. Criticism of Nagy in Chicago was that he had a ***** passing game. Pep is interesting. What about Doug Pederson? He has connects to McD from Philly, right?
  16. For feature back role? No. As a rotational piece? Absolutely. I’d like to see an upgrade in one or both of the size or speed department.
  17. You might want to consider a new screen name my friend.
  18. My comment was more tongue in cheek and a compliment to Josh. And slight to Jones. But…to call his own shots? Sure, why not. Same reason Daboll would even consider the Dolphins. AFC is loaded with young QBs that you aren’t avoiding no matter the division, with exception to AFC South. Depending on how you feel about Lawrence. Also, Raiders roster isn’t a tire fire. Carr is underwhelming to me, but you can do worse. Better than Jones. Who knows, they have connections to Easterby and Caserio. Maybe they go make a move for Watson. That roster with Watson is a contender with a few tweaks to the supporting cast.
  19. Anyone surprised? He’s witnessed Josh’s career arc and has to combat him with Meh Jones. Like bringing a knife to a gun fight. He’s getting the F outta dodge.
  20. Emotions still raw. I’m still gutted over this. How did that happen with 13 seconds? I see posts about firing everyone. That’s not happening, nor should it. But…I am getting a little sick of McD learning these tough lessons when it’s too late to do anything about it. That was a colossal coaching failure on the biggest stage. Have to imagine it’s tough for anyone associated with the defense to even look at Josh right now.
