rafter

Very short term leverage

Craziest part about him was that he talked about being a soccer player.. What soccer position can't move?

Maybe our new stadium can be the thunderdome

Curious.. Where do you see he's winning, or anything definitive that there's even a struggle?

4th rounders usually don't play right away on talented teams. (our D is) Let him develop into a quality reserve or surprise us and be a starter. No need to worry or rush it.

Rex Ryan is nothing without Mark Sanchez. With sanchez 2 AFC champ games. Without sanchez... NOTHING

It looks like a rude awakening for him to have linebackers close on him that fast.

Van Kelly

I dont get that feel from him. I usually get a sorta uncomfortable(cant expain it better) feeling watching a lame duck coach. This year has been the first sliver of positive light thats hit this team in a decade. Even a chance to land the playoffs this time of year is something. I agree the O needs sweeping changes. I'm not sure id flush and reboot this year.

fail

I was going to ask who were the best comp picks ever.. But google answered. #1 = vomit http://www.nfl.com/photoessays/0ap2000000336907

Rodgers might have been a bust if forced to start right away on a weak bills squad.

Cleveland apparently has an all-world team.

Have you ever listened to sports radio and heard the callers? How ridiculous and uninformed they are? This is who he is catering to. If its not you, move on.

The play where he tried to jump a defender?

Has a coach ever lasted to see 3 different GMs?

Marino had a good head for the game but what set him apart was his release. That's not something he can teach it was just a talent.

Can't have enough talented strippers

I don't. Who else did he represent?

You really believe his agent did that without ever talking to his client?

Which one was that? Can't remember.. Although I have at tendency to block traumatic experiences from memory.

who knows whats going on there. thats more than a benching. I can't believe with the issues we've had there and the effort to fix(moving pears of all people) that we haven't given him a shot. he was never allpro but he was definitely serviceable in the past. Yes, all coaches should tailor they're tactics per player personality, but I feel he used a similar tactic with both.

I didn't want to start a thread and couldn't find a more appropriate place to ask this... But does anyone think Marrone's coaching style is to bench or demote a player to motivate them? I think about woods from preseason being a 2nd teamer, then Mike williams being benched. Perhaps it's to light a fire under his ass?

Are there stats on this anywhere? This is an interesting subject. Also, id like to see the last 10 years passer rating winning percentage. As in how often did the team with the higher passer rating win that particular game.

Yep. I feel the pegulas are going to lean on russ heavily to help them acclimate to ownership. After that I can't see them dumping him. They will likely keep him in a prominent roll with the franchise.
