BBTV 20,085 Posted January 19 So it's looking more and more like Josh McDaniels is going to be the Eagles guy (or at least until he backs out.) Heard nothing but bad stuff about him and his personality, and how all of his "innovations" basically amount to "have the best QB ever". "so coach... why did the team only gain 50 yards this week?" "they didn't run the plays correctly." "what did they do wrong?" "these 30 plays require someone to play like the best QB ever, and they didn't do that." 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If he takes the job here, he’ll have no say in personnel, so that can’t happen again (it’ll be other people making ridiculous picks.). He won’t even get to set his own game day roster - seriously. The GM (who’s a CPA and not a “football” guy) informs the coach who will dress every week and who will be inactive. It’s insane. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
habsfan1 3,966 Posted January 19 Brady vs Mahomes would be interesting. If it happens, when the Bucs trail the Chiefs late in the 4th, we'll see if Brady still has his super powers. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

God I hated McDaniels so much. Not to say Cutler was the answer, but that turd tried to trade him away to get the coveted Matt Cassel of all people. Then they get saddled with Kyle Orton because Cutler rightly didn't trust his new coach. Then, he blathers on about how the Broncos don't need a running back (under Shannahan they always had 1,000 yard rushers after all) and then his very first draft pick is a running back. Tebow gets drafted the next year and that was totally great and not dumb, but then McDaniels gets fired because he sucked and got caught cheating. 42 minutes ago, GDAWG said: If McDaniels gets the Eagles job and then changes his mind once more and goes back to New England, he should never be an NFL Head Coach again. He shouldn't be offered a new job after being caught cheating while with the Broncos and he shouldn't be considered for a job after backing out of a head coaching spot the last time. No way in hell would I pin my hopes on that piece of crap. I'd rather go grab some college coach or something. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BBTV 20,085 Posted January 19 The cheating thing doesn’t bother me much. If you’re not cheating, you’re not trying. As a fan, it doesn’t make the parade any less fun if the team cheated to get there. Couldn’t care less. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

IceCap 22,311 Posted January 19 3 hours ago, DG_ThenNowForever said: https://www.espn.com/nfl/recap?gameId=401220333 The answer in November was no. At the same time, as a Bucs fan... I look at that game and go "yeah the Bucs came within a score of beating the defending champs with the best young QB on the planet." It makes a potential SB against KC seem winnable. I mean hell...New Orleans slapped the Bucs all season and the Bucs beat them by ten in the playoffs. Only losing 27-24 to KC doesn't seem like an impossible mountain to climb. Of course they need to get past Green Bay first. Which I am paradoxically worried about despite the Bucs handling them easily earlier in the year. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Given all he went through to even walk again, maybe playing for WFT isn’t a good idea. It's my personal hope that Brees, Brady, and Ryan all retire within the next three-ish years so that the NFC South is no longer old white QB central and the Panthers can do something again. Ben leaving would be great as well. Funnily enough, Smith is the only one I don't want to leave, if only because it's freaking awesome that he's able to play in the first place. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AustinFromBoston 784 Posted January 20 I'm just gonna say it, Phillip Rivers deserved a ring more than Eli Manning. Ironically, Eli will get in mainly because of his rings, while Rivers may miss out (or have to wait a very long time) due to his lack of one. As for the next big QB to retire, Ben is my guess. He's been declining for years now. Only a matter of time before he's permanently benched. Also makes you wonder why Green Bay drafted a QB in the 1st round this past year. Yeah, remember that? 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sport 13,994 Posted January 20 I like historic rematches in Super Bowls such as Cowboys-Steelers, Eagles-Patriots, Bengals-49ers () so I'm pulling for Packers-Chiefs to recreate Super Bowl I. Bills-Bucs would give me vicarious butt-puckering for the Bills fans I know who would finally find their way back to the Super Bowl only to see their tormentor of the last 20 years waiting for them. And you know he'd beat them too. That would be a cruel "I want Tom Brady out of the division" monkey's paw wish for Bills fans and I don't think I'd enjoy that. Chiefs-Bucs, Packers-Bills are whatever games. Those are some "Backyard Football", "NFL Blitz" ass Super Bowl matchups. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GDAWG 1,800 Posted January 20 We are all forgetting one player who was drafted in the same year as Big Ben and Rivers: Larry Fitzgerald. He hasn't decided on his future. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
