They may not go sideways, so to speak. Maye is in year two, Henderson is in year one, the defense has a good mix and is solid, Vrabel is a good coach, and McDaniels is back to doing his thing. They are also expected to have $65M+ in FA next year. Things are truly looking up in NE and I think Diggs will be happy to be along for that ride.

Yeah, me too. But if the Steelers trade you before your rookie deal is up, when they could have paired you with Metcalf for old man Rodgers, then you know something ain't quite right.

Oh, well, true. I was just looking at it from the NFL standpoint.

This ain't gonna happen. No one is giving Brady a HC gig. Still, he needs to go , along with McDermott, and Daboll needs to return.

Given his age, and his type of injury, the fact Diggs came back so quickly to play at the level he is right now is pretty remarkable. He's been a full go since TC, and that was just 10 months removed his ACL tear. He is the leading receiver for NE and is on pace for another 1,000 yard season. Good for him. Yes, his time was done here. He had become as much a detriment to the locker room as he was prior to being jettisoned by Minnesota. The difference is Minnesota was able to flip our pick into Justin Jefferson. Our pick ended up becoming another defensive lineman.

I mean, the talent is there for sure and he would definitely help the offense, but the guy is a headcase. How much of that will come out even more if you give him big $$$? It would make me nervous for us to give him that contract.

Here people are again talking about Josh like he still doesn't carry this team. Hilarious. Gaudy numbers or no gaudy numbers, without Josh we lose to the Ravens, probably the lowly Saints, and definitely the Chiefs. This team would be in the hunt for a top 5 pick. The only thing that's leveled out is McDermott's leadership and Brady calling plays. They should both be kicking cans at the end of the season, and I say that because I know Pegula doesn't have the balls to do it now.

I like the idea of Lane Kiffin as our HC. I feel like he has grown in a major way at Ole Miss. His offensive mind is exceptional. I think he would do great things here in that regard. The question would be who would he tap on the shoulder to manage the defense? You would hope it would be someone who ran an attacking style defense like his father. Schoen or Casserio would be quality hires, but there are a couple others I would absolutely consider. I would definitely bring John McKay in for an interview at the least, assistant GM of the LA Rams. He has worked his way up through the scouting and personnel departments for the last 10 years before being tabbed as Assistant GM this year. I would also give an interview to Nolan Teasley, who is the assistant GM in Seattle and has been there since 2013 working his way up the ranks.

Still one of the funniest post-game interviews.

Nah, it was over. He was as cancerous at the end here as he was in Minnesota.

They ABSOLUTELY should at least consider bringing in Daboll. The offense has never been better with Josh at the helm than when Dabs was OC.

I think a vast majority of us are not happy with McDermott's efforts as a HC.

Of course not, because he wasn't a yes man like everyone else on his current staff. At this point, I'd even take Daboll over McDermott as HC. At least I know the offense would be brought back into order.

And this is ANOTHER reason why McDermott needs to be fired. It's over. He's done. Hopefully Pegula has enough sense to choose his QB over his clown-boy coach.

Joe on his way to the locker room

It's both. Brady is not some wünderkind like people made him out to be and the WR room is CLEARLY lacking.

And he thought the Jets or Miami would trade him their players because?

This should be the last McDermott loss. He's lost this team and the defense is purely his product. I don't care anything about his regular season record. You can also send Beane with him for being his FO errand boy. I'm not defending either of them any longer.

They need to not delay another year and hit the reset button quick. Goodbye McDermott, goodbye to this defensive scheme, get a legitimate HC who can get the most out of Allen, and shed dead weight on this roster.

Break out the TP and wipe this team into the locker room

Doesn't matter. We're not winning the East this year. They are a better team overall, and ABSOLUTELY better coached.

This defense is horrible. It doesn't matter who's calling it.

We really need to reset before Josh is too old for it to matter

But, of course, there was "friction" between him and McDermott. In other words, he hated McDermott meddling
