I agree, but it looks bad for the league imo. The guy has two DUI’s already, a road rage charge, and a drug charge for possessing a bunch of painkillers. The history is there, but he was allowed to be hired for nepotism sake. This dude already injured a motorcyclist years ago. An assistant NFL coach is like an administrative position in the real world. I don’t think too many companies would want to take a chance on that guy. I agree, this could happen with anyone regardless of workplace, but the NFL continues to allow drug addicts, and domestic violence offenders to keep being part of the league. You can’t stop everything from happening, but when you employ so many people with historic issues, more problems will occur.

These are the type of things that make it so hard to root for the NFL. If Buffalo didn’t have a team, I couldn’t do it. It seems like women and children are constant collateral damage to the lifestyle of NFL players and coaches. Maybe the NFL should be like a normal employer, and not allow hires with extensive criminal backgrounds on a coaching staff.

Should I interpret that last sentence as merely a factual statement? or a statement that he’s worthy of such a title ? 😆

This is what always happens in any type of fight. The guy who throws a weak half hearted punch gets knocked down by a good one from the other guy, then everyone blames the guy who delivered the better punch.

My favorite part of that video is how Feliciano got dominated after the whistle in scrums just as much as he did trying to block.

I don’t care much about Gronk either, I’m just making the point that some fans are rooting against KC because of dirty plays. Brady is a cheat and Gronk committed one of the dirtiest plays I’ve ever seen, so I didn’t understand how some Bills fans are all about the Bucs suddenly. To each their own, I just find some of the Brady love around here kind of gross.

I understand that perspective, but I don’t think KC losing the Super Bowl would make me feel better about the loss, although I can see how some people would see it that way. What I find confusing is rooting against KC because the way acted during the game. I’m good with not rooting for either team, but if you’re mad at KC for being classless, how do you root for the team with Gronk ? The same Gronk who jumped on Tre White’s neck in a far more egregious play than anything KC did.

I agree, fans are entitled to feel however they want about KC, but Bills fans who are using it as a reason to root for the Bucs confuse me. We’re mad the Chiefs played a classless game, so let’s root for Brady and Gronk. Seems to make a ton of sense 😂

No, the front office couldn’t draft, and ownership wasn’t going to pay free agents or assistant coaches.

My mistake, meant to say LV. I can’t keep track of where the Raiders are.

I’ve always felt there’s also something “off”about Carr as a leader and teammate.

I hope Watson goes to LV. It might help us by giving Mahomes a tougher path to the first round bye every season.

I really hope the NFL QB position doesn’t turn into an NBA situation where these guys are always looking for a better situation.

Mahomes definitely benefits from the talent around him. You can’t be an elite QB with no talent around you, but some of you need to watch what Alex Smith did with Hill and Kelce. It wasn’t bad, but you’ll fully appreciate that Mahomes is great.

Feliciano is insanely overrated around here. He has the former Raider steak of nastiness and fighting post whistle that fans love. It doesn’t take away the fact he gets beaten on a regular basis.

I agree, but God forbid an article is written that questions the “Patriot Way”.

How true. I just find it hilarious how fans and the media worship Belichick and the Pats franchise, but players are actually choosing not to go there.

Do we think this is because he doesn’t like the Pats roster, and doesn’t trust them to bring in talent ? or doesn’t he want to deal with Belichick ?

Agree, I look at this from a very simplistic view. If my team signed Goff as their QB, would I be inspired by the signing ? Absolutely not. That tells me all I need to know about my take on Goff as a good QB. Those good years in LA with a healthy Todd Gurley wouldn’t mean a thing to me.

The narrative is the most interesting part of this trade imo. We will all get to find out what’s true when we see Goff in Detroit. Goff just doesn’t pass the eye test for me. McVay did a lot of interesting things with that offense such as the helmet radio communication stuff with Goff. You’re not necessarily wrong, I’m just curious to see what happens with this. QB’s put up big numbers in 2020, numbers that once made a guy elite mean less in the modern NFL. Very average QB’s can put up big numbers these days.

I preface this by saying I’m not a big Stafford fan. I’m not convinced that he’s top level elite, or capable of winning titles. I do believe that Stafford is capable of bringing a well coached team with a decent roster to the playoffs. That’s exactly why the Rams traded for him. The Lions game plan is a little more confusing to me. Most people view Goff as a stop gap QB in Detroit who will struggle without McVay in his ear. This means the Lions don’t have a QB. Those two first rounders aren’t to be at the top of the first round, and they still need to find a QB. Stafford might have never taken the Lions far, but I’d prefer to build around him for the last few years of his career, and hope for the best. Get what you can out of Stafford, then go for the tank when he retires to draft a QB. A couple of draft picks in the 20-30 range don’t do much for a team without a QB. The Lions still need to chase their QB of the future. I view Stafford as a serviceable second tier QB, who could have taken the Lions to the playoffs. I don’t think they have that with Goff. If the Rams don’t win a title, I think both teams are losers in this trade.

The D would still be the biggest factor in what separates us from other AFC rivals because imo Allen/Diggs > Stafford/Golladay seven days a week.

If I’m a QB looking for a new home, I’d only want to be traded to the NFC. It’s your best chance at a Super Bowl if you’re a guy like Watson.

Definitely a short term plan being prioritized in LA. I completely understand it though. The NFC is a weak conference, but you don’t know how long it will remain so. McVay is betting on himself and his team to take advantage of that now. There aren’t any elite teams in the NFC imo, and the Rams see themselves as being close. I’ve never been much of a Stafford fan, but there’s no reason to believe he can’t lead them to a Super Bowl if Goff can. Brady will be 44 next season, and wasn’t truly spectacular this year, Rodgers always has some type of drama, The Seahawks can’t play D, and Brees is either retired or washed up. That’s definitely what the Rams are seeing, otherwise this is a very bad plan.

You’re not wrong, I was actually quite disappointed in how classless Reid’s team played. That being said, Brady played on the ultimate classless franchise beating us twice a year for how long ? His good buddy Gronk assaulted Tre White, so there’s that. I think it’s fair to dislike KC, but I’m not going to run off to root for Brady.
