    I think Ross is done as an owner. He messed with the wrong dude.
  2. BuffaloRebound
    Texans or Saints would be smart to hire Flores. I think most players would run through a brick wall for him, especially after taking on the NFL.
  3. BuffaloRebound
    Isn’t that what standing is about? You have to show harm to yourself to file a complaint like this.
  4. BuffaloRebound
    Root causes seems like an exercise of chasing your own tail. It’d be a lot easier to ask owners like Jerry Jones why he’s hired 8 head coaches in 30 years and none of them have been a minority? These owners gotta be made to feel uncomfortable and look in the mirror. They’re the ones with final say in these hiring decisions.
  5. BuffaloRebound
    Giants. Jones needs some competition. Not buying all the fluff Schoen and Daboll are saying about Jones. They’re not handing him the job, but doubt they draft a 1st round QB. Trubisky would make sense there.
  6. BuffaloRebound
    And Rooney was probably the only owner who would’ve taken a chance on Tomlin at the time. The NFL hoped putting minority candidates in front of owners was gonna change their behavior. It hasn’t.
  7. BuffaloRebound
    It’s almost statistically impossible to end up with 1 black head coach out of 32 without their being some form of discrimination when teams are forced to interview 2 minority candidates for every opening. Nobody’s saying these owners are KKK members, but I don’t see how anybody can say there’s not a problem.

    Roger Goodell and NFL owners right now figuring out which team is gonna hire Flores to make this go away.
  9. BuffaloRebound
    Yes. And now they’re gonna hire a white former player with zero coaching experience. Bad look.
  10. BuffaloRebound
    It’s not cut and dry, but how likely is it that 31 head coaching jobs (minus Belichik because he was pre-rooney rule) have had to interview a black candidate and only 1 of those 31 jobs currently have a black head coach. The Rooney Rule is a joke. And the NFL is gonna have to fork over a ton of money.
  11. BuffaloRebound
    How? You can’t force the owners to hire a black head coach. Only thing you can do is what Flores is doing. Hurt em in their bank account when you feel you ain’t getting a fair shake.
  12. BuffaloRebound
    Nope. Rich old white guys gonna rich old white guy until it hurts them in the pocket book. Which is exactly what Flores is trying to do. Never particularly liked the guy, but good for Flores.
  13. BuffaloRebound
    It’s proving to be just that. Clearly a tool for owners to hide behind when there’s 1 black head coach. Well we’re giving them interviews at least.
  14. BuffaloRebound
    I think it means the Rooney Rule does more harm than good at this point. I don’t really like Flores, but good for him for calling out the BS and going after these billionaire owners who think they can do whatever they want.
  15. BuffaloRebound
    Belichik ain’t congratulating Daboll unless he got the job. That’s a pretty damning text in regards to a sham interview.
  16. BuffaloRebound
    I don’t particularly care for Flores, but show me the black example of Josh McCown. Culley actually had them playing well at end of season and got canned after 1 year. The Rooney Rule just makes things worse. I’d love to know the hiring rate of black vs white interviewees.
  17. BuffaloRebound
    Ross would. Flores still would’ve been fired probably a year earlier.
  18. BuffaloRebound
    Unfortunately, the Rooney Rule can’t force owners to have an open mind like the Rule’s namesake.
  19. BuffaloRebound
    It’s a joke that there’s only 1 black head coach in the NFL. The Rooney Rule clearly ain’t working and is just creating more problems with the appearance of sham interviews. NFL has a race problem when it comes to hiring coaches but Rooney Rule seems to be making it worse.
  20. BuffaloRebound
    Flores will never coach again in NFL. He’s basically lighting himself on fire. Ross can now sit back and tell everybody ‘I told you so.’
  21. BuffaloRebound
    Get more aggressive!
  22. BuffaloRebound
    Gronk, Patterson, 1st round WR on offense. Chandler Jones, Calais Campbell, Donte Johnson, 2nd round LB to replace Edmunds. Jones is only big ticket guy.
  23. BuffaloRebound
    I ain’t that high on Edmunds, but I do think he has more trade value than Saquan. I wouldn’t do that trade. It looks like there’s 6-7 ILB’s in this draft who could go in 1st 2 rounds. I’d prefer to flip Edmunds for one of those guys. I’d rather pay Fournette $5-6m than trade for Saquan.
  24. BuffaloRebound
    I assume they’d sign him to a long term deal. He can be their Star Lotulelei.
  25. BuffaloRebound
    Those guys are all free agents among many others. And Brady retirement triggers a dead cap charge. They went all in to run it back. It was worth it, but unless Green Bay let’s Rodgers walk and he plays for free, Bucs are in rebuild mode.
