He may have already been posted (I haven't read all 5 pages of the thread yet), but I am very high on Lou Anarumo. He is great motivator (like McD), a tough bastard (like Belichick), and has shown (numerous times) that he can stymie the Chiefs offense in the playoffs. Including absolutely blanking Mahomes in the second half of last years AFCCG, in one of the best defensive efforts i've ever seen. Hiring Anarumo: 1) Helps the Bills. 2) Hurts the Bengals. 3) Hurts the Chiefs. It's a win/win/win. It's not as sexy of a pick as hiring an offensive mind, but we let our offensive mind go to the Giants, so... Anarumom would be my pick. PS, as much as I am down about McD's chances to win a championship, I would shake his hand and thank him for all he has done for the franchise. He is a large part of the reason that we are no longer a joke around the NFL. He established a culture in Buffalo and brought credibility back to this franchise. He deserves serious praise for what he has accomplished. When we win a ring with another coach, I believe McD should get a ring as well, because without him setting the groundwork and building the foundation, the eventual ring would never have happened.

There is a good chance that the Eagles would still be Super Bowl less if they had kept Andy Reid. Reid has 2 Super Bowl's now because of Patrick Mahomes. One of the best QB's to ever play the game. Billy Bob Thornton could win a Super Bowl with Patrick Mahomes.

A stadium opening is actually the perfect time to fire an old coach and hire a new one. New coaches (new hope) boost ticket sales.

Daboll is so good. Watching those game highlights again and seeing the variety of plays and the pacing and spacing… night and day.

Great point.

He left Dallas with an even worse taste. He was fuming that Dallas wouldn’t pay him.

That’s just a bonus 😀

It’s commentary, not debate.

This is true. What many people view as “smart” is context-dependent. You see it in this thread - posters speaking of the people they know that excel in their specific fields of expertise. They don’t consider the core of what intelligence truly is. The ability to reason logically, the ability to analyze and synthesize information, their processing speed, quantitative ability, emotional regulation, problem-solving, the ability to tap into (and ignore) collective intelligence and group think, the ability to innovate, memory, etc. Whereas domain-specific intelligence is in actuality the ability to simply learn and recall specific subject material and implement it in their daily work. It’s not always the same. It is for this reason why there is no shortage of stupid PhD’s.

Florio is fantastic if you understand what he is. He isn't in the business of delivering news. He is in the business of giving hypotheticals and explaining all possibilities - including possibilities that may never happen. Florio is the best in the business at breaking down contracts, analyzing legal matters, etc.

Nickname.

Your post may be a movie/social reference I don't understand since I am a bit autistic, but on the chance that it is not, i'd like to advocate for donating to a childhood hunger cause as well. Whenever donations are mentioned, feeding America and similar (better) organizations are rarely mentioned. But there is hardly a better cause than making sure children do no go hungry.

To each their own but I find it pretty funny lol. They don't know the difference between a w2 and a cap gains sheet. I have my popcorn out.

I'm honestly fond of Simon, and that comes from someone who has more than 1 warning from him. He is fair, which is all I ask of a mod.

I provided evidence. You ignored it.

There is no “yeah, but”. It’s like 2+2=10. Its just wrong. Reid accomplished farrrr more than McD. And with a worse QB.

Wow, I didn’t know Beck is a former terrible mod. Still, I think Chandler has the title for worst moderator. Never seen so many complaints about one mod than I did for Chandler.

The Reid comparison doesn’t work. Reid already been to a Super Bowl and multiple Championship games by the same point in his career that McD is. And with a QB who wasn’t as good as Allen.

then you missed a fun few pages yesterday

I don’t tell strangers my IQ. PS, here is my IQ.

I love how obsessed you are with me. This is your 8th post about me in the last 72 hours 😂

Already a member.

I chuckled.

That timeline makes sense. The info about Daboll wanting to leave McDermott (even in a lateral move) was shared on Jan 11. Schoen didnt even have his 1st interview with the Giants until AFTER that. @Doc's theory is that the Giants had already decided they wanted to hire Schoen (before ever interviewing him), and Schoen gave them information that he wanted Daboll (before ever interviewing him) and therefore decided to conduct a sham interview with Flores, and part of their scheme to conduct this sham interview with Flores, they pretended that Daboll (who they already decided to hire before ever interviewing him based on their decision to already hire Schoen who they also hadn't ever interviewed yet) would be open to making a lateral move that he wasn't actually willing to make. Quite the mental gymnastics to get around the fact that Daboll wanted away from McD.
