Low Positive

But your point that 1 1/2 seasons as OC not being enough to wash the Gase stink off of his career may be correct.

Hines played in the first game after he was acquired. Both Joseph and Douglas played significant snaps last week. There is no history of this staff holding players out. Lenny must not be ready.

He was passing game coordinator in 2021. He was promoted to OC after the 2021 season.

Diggs dancing with beers didn’t look like fun?

I remember that some of Brady’s struggles in his first half-season in Tampa was due to learning Leftwitch’s offense.

You made me look something up. The Lions only ran 42% of their plays from the shotgun yesterday. The league average last season was 66%. They also had great balance, with 26 rushing attempts by RBs and 33 passing attempts. I didn't watch the game, so I'm just going on stats and the play sheet on NFL.com. That shows a play-caller in control of a game who didn't abandon the run. But then again, the Lions never trailed in that game.

Then they must have zero WRs on their rosters.

This board has not hit the point when Einstein is the most rational poster. I mean, even FiltyBeast made a post today that was more measured than all of the "Trade Josh Allen" posts on here this week.

Just two short years ago, Mac was better than brady: https://www.sportskeeda.com/nfl/mac-jones-tom-brady-rookie-season

I really like Ejiro Evero as a HC candidate. This year's defense in Carolina notwithstanding, he coached some good defenses in Denver. Also Lou Anoramo in Cincinnati. Both of those guys will get interviews this offseason.

I actually would want the OC from Houston. He runs the Kyle Shanahan system. Do you like running plays? Look at the crazy variety that they run in that system: https://sumersports.com/the-zone/shanahan-schemes/

Because it was brought up, there is no way that the Pats just cut Mac Jones. He has a lot of trade value. If the Bills were still a QB-starved team, I would be "pounding the table" for him because I would think that he just needs a more stable situation to recover his rookie-year form. Some team like Atlanta or TB will give up a second.

Bills are 28th on the waiver list. I doubt he drops that far.

Joyless football only works if the team is actively competing for Lombardis.

Apparently, he got in BB's doghouse for being late to a meeting and then sulked about it on the sidelines in Frankfurt: https://www.masslive.com/patriots/2023/11/patriots-leader-to-see-where-jack-jones-heads-at-after-sideline-behavior.html

Fourth rounder that they are cutting after a season and a half. That's that 3-d chess.

You remember this morning?

And the Texans were without their #1 WR and RB. But they did lose to the Panthers a few weeks ago. Wild ride indeed.

He played about 40% of the snaps in Cincinnati.

The best situation is an offensive HC who calls the plays with an OC in the booth spotting for him.

I thought we traded him already.

They only get still pictures on those tablets during the game. There was a great article in SI this week that talks about this and a lot more. https://www.si.com/nfl/2023/11/09/dolphins-nfl-sideline-support-staff-daily-cover

I don’t think it is. Fournette said that the Bills passing scheme is the most complicated he has ever seen. All those choice routes require the pass catcher to read the defense, not just run a precise route. Also, contrary to popular belief in TBD, Hines was traded to the Bills on a Tuesday and played that Sunday against the Jets. Josh attempted a long pass to him on a wheel route that was incomplete.

He got 30 carrie’s. What was crazy about that game with the insane high number of offensive plays for both teams.

So McVey is no good now?
