  1. So based on the responses I've seen so far, this is either a good move or a crappy move. That said, Aaron Williams seems to like it.
  2. I'm glad it's a guy with a lot of DC experience, and a pretty good one at that. We'll have to see how much change he wants to bring. If he keeps Henderson, perhaps we can keep Byrd.
  3. I wouldn't be so sure about Wade. He really wants to be a DC, and it sounds like he's not opposed to coming back.
  4. Well, at least now we have a thread to tell us this.
  5. Sounds done... AdamSchefter Browns expected to offer their HC job to Bills DC Mike Pettine, per multiple league sources, via @mortreport and me. Need to work out deal. 1/23/14, 9:14 AM ChrisBrownBills Report: Pettine to be offered Browns job http://t.co/r0Zzf7RTmO 1/23/14, 9:18 AM
  6. Plenty of discussion of this in other threads...
  7. I'd say no news means probably either: (a) Working on contract details, or (b) Pettine is their fall back guy and nobody wants to come out and say they want to wait while they interview the Seattle guy another time So...yeah. Good news or bad news.
  8. It makes too much sense...if Pettine leaves, that is.
  9. Can't believe nobody posted this yet... sonofbum Yes I would go back to where I have been before.I enjoyed and was treated well at all my stops. I just want to help a team win this year. 1/22/14, 9:02 AM danielthomsen @sonofbum I loved watching your teams play in Buffalo. You were a stellar coach for us and I'd love to see you back if Pettine departs. 1/22/14, 10:43 AM I thought originally that Wade's tweet was in response to the other guy's, but it seems not based on time. I'm not sure why Wade was tweeting that in particular.
  10. muahahahahaha...it had to be done
  11. Guy can take a hit and still hang on to the ball. I like it.
  12. I wouldn't be disappointed with Ebron or a RT at #9, but this team needs a run-stuffing, game-changing, playmaking LB in a big way.
  13. Good Lord. Why do people continue to give this guy a microphone?
  14. I'm not sure why, but I find it fascinating that there are completely diametric opinions about both the play (Sherman being beat vs. being in perfect position, perfect throw vs. poor throw) and Sherman's comments (totally warranted vs. totally punk-ass). I guess I imagined there would be more consensus on those things.
  15. The comment section after that article is just priceless.
  16. NFL Network had a statement on their crawler that Gase was probably going to stay with Denver another year...
  17. OH YEAH Finally, I can rest at ease.
  18. Dude, I think you need to take a minute and visit this thread.
  19. Well, like you said, there's the concept of a "hole" and the concept of an "upgradeable position". The goal should always be to upgrade when possible, given the limitations of the salary cap. I agree with you when you say the only real hole on offense is LG. But I think most people can see that an upgrade would be warranted at RG, RT, TE, WR, and QB. Not that I think we need, or should get, an upgrade at each of those, however. I'm one who thinks that improved QB play will help cover up the holes and upgradeable positions more efficiently than finding new players. Better QB play will make everybody look better. I'm putting my hopes on EJ showing improvement in year 2. If that's the case, then on offense I think the main *need* is for an upgrade at LG. I think the outcomes would be significantly better with improved QB play and a better player at LG. The rest of those positions -- RG, RT, TE, WR -- probably give you less bang for the buck, given who we currently have there. And yes, we definitely need an upgrade to the Bradham/Moats position. Get a stud LB in the middle and move Kiko outside, and now you're talking. As long as we keep Byrd.
  20. Delta now allows you to use headphones and small electronic devices throughout takeoff and landing. The main thing you can't use are phones (the calling function, at least) and laptops.
  21. Hmm...I'd probably say the gathered data are just the data, while statistics is a mathematical description of those data.
  22. He's not kidding. You can search the forums here for the main thread started when he was hired, and it was anything but a love fest.
