  1. DC of a hot NFC team, first time head coach... pretty similar. Jets fans are banging their heads against the wall.
  2. I dont think Saleh would demand it, per se. But he (or someone else) may have questioned the stability of the organization and the constant turmoil of having your HC and GM hires offset. It's why Ross is giving Grier one more year in Miami, so he can fire Grier and McDaniel at the same time next year.
  3. Hopefully this type of chaos keeps Joe Brady away
  4. The league is doing well to incentivize giving these guys opportunities, while not incentivizing hiring lesser qualified coaches. Rewarding the team that helped get their foot in the door and developed them. Not rewarding teams just for checking a box. Good way to do it, and fair to everyone.
  5. Very slight, almost no delay, to the stadium scoreboards. Pretty much real time.
  6. Not sure the Jets get one for hiring. But the Lions will definitely get one for having their guy hired.
  7. Rodgers probably stopped reading when he saw "Aaron" and just assumed they named Rodgers HC as well.
  8. Whatever path we needed to get Jerry Hughes on the team
  9. Josh was just happy it wasnt another Al Qaeda reference.
  10. But we had a GM at the time McD was hired. If both spots are open at the same time, usually the GM position would be filled first. Unless they are looking for a "CEO" type coach (Parcells, Belichick, etc). But not sure Glenn is that.
  11. ha, my first thought on that "article" as well. There are a few lines we could quote from there that make zero sense. Keon Coleman drawing a flag for blocking a guy all the way into his bench? I'm fine with it.
  12. Just watched the whole episode. Lots of good stuff. My favorite brief moment was when they showed the Ravens walking to the bus after the loss and Justin Tucker is carrying a box of La Nova with him. He knows whats up!
  13. Ehh, I'm fine with it. Someone needs to set that tone and bring the juice. Love seeing our guys be more fired up and physical than the Ravens. That is saying something (good job, McD). We'll need it for the next 2 games. Especially against Philly.
  14. Yeah, it was almost like he tried injuring himself more than Hollins was. You can see Mack pop up after the play and put his hands up like "I wasnt trying to do THAT, and this dude needs medical attention now" Not surprised Humphrey isnt the sharpest tool in the shed.
  15. So Mack's block on Humphrey wasnt really about the Josh hit. A few plays prior to the block, Hollins caught a pass in the middle of the field and headed toward the sidelines. He took a "big" hit from Humphrey as he went out of bounds. One of those hits that happen in the snow/frozen field with bad footing. Probably a little late too. He popped right up, ready to fight, and luckily McD and others were there to pull him away. Then Mack got his revenge a few plays later
  16. Not to defend them at all, but I can add that it's no different this time of year on sports radio anywhere. Even in Atlanta with far more pro teams to discuss, and college football and basketball being huge here. The afternoon show on 92.9 down here spent over an hour debating which one of the 3 hosts is the "most cultured". But first they had to spend an hour debating what "being cultured" actually meant. It's a slow sports time of year, and only gets worse in a couple weeks post-Super Bowl.
  17. I tune into the post game to hear the player/coach interviews. Once they start taking calls, right after a game, it's time to turn it off and do something else. The morning show on my commute to work is still good.
  18. No, he got injured in the garbage game against the Pats. A small sacrifice for keeping our starting CBs healthy.
  19. We all know what happens when you let your Woody make decisions. Nothing good. Jets need to move on to post nut clarity before they'll ever be good. Funny enough, the best thing to ever happen to the Jets was Trump assigning Woody to the UK. It allowed Chris Johnson to take over, and he just let the football guys do their thing.
  20. Glenn to the Jets would be another great move for the Bills by a division rival. Nothing against the man, but I dont think its much of a groundbreaking hire. It will be same ol same ol in New Jersey. And will be that way as long as you have a Woody making decisions. I still worry about Brady to New Orleans. Seems like a well connected no-brainer. Hoping the Saints dont want to wait 3 weeks to make a hire. McCarthy would be a good land for them.
  21. I'd be giving the signature McD claps too. Clappin for that mfer like 2 cheeks at Magic City during the NBA All Star Weekend! "Look at my little Champion! *clap clap clap* Oh, he's got 12 men on the field to defend a FG! *clap clap clap* Silly McD, give him another $5M!"
  22. I dont think McCarthy is great, but he was given another 9 years after his SB win. So yeah, I think he got the looooong leash from his SB win I mentioned earlier. Green Bay also had to deal with Rodgers and thats a big reason why they moved on from Mike. Once McD wins one I'm fine if Terry wants to hand him a lifetime contract and a blank check.
  23. It is an odd question. In response to an odd statement "McD would get hired in a second". Sure, of course he would. But what does that really say? Does the fact that teams like the Panthers, Raiders, Jets, Browns, and any other perennial basement dweller hold any relevancy to the debate on whether McD can/will get us a Championship? We are at a totally different level than a lot of other teams in the league. Therefore our coaching discussion is at a different level too. The fact he would (rightfully) get hired by SOME team doesnt really tell me anything I dont already know/believe. The McD Riders throw this statement around like it should end all debate, since we arent allowed to have those higher level discussions around here without being labeled a "hater". But it isnt really relevant to what we're talking about. So any playoff teams you could think of?
