trekbkr Posted November 1, 2010 Share Posted November 1, 2010 It sounds to me like Favre might be one of those guys who's tough as nails in most respects but gets lightheaded at the sight of blood. My brother's the same way -- can rebuild a V-8 with his eyes closed but if he gashes his finger in the process it's night-night time.And I'm with Punch9 -- Childress' inability to grasp simple game management concepts continues to kill the Vikes.

Saintsfan Posted November 1, 2010 Share Posted November 1, 2010 Halfway through the 2010 regular season, here is my take on which head coaches are most under threat right now. Obviously Wade Phillips, bar a miracle, the Cowboys will be in the market for a coach in January (if not sooner). Josh McDaniels, the Broncos really are in reverse right now. McDaniels job isn't unsaveable, but only a few signs that the Broncos can do enough to save it for him? Brad Childress, the wheels do seem close to coming off the wagon for the Vikings. And Randy Moss and Brett Favre, at least, don't seem inclined to try help fix the wagon. Jack Del Rio, just because he's been at the Kags a while now without a heap of success. Jax are consistently placed in the mid rank teams, but have yet to make that big breakthrough. 2011/12 WFL Champions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rams80 Posted November 1, 2010 Share Posted November 1, 2010 And I, Seadragon76, would like to say that the Lambs beat a freaking 1 win Carolina team! That's like beating Indiana, man.Oh, and BigMac: Notice how she's dressed like a Lamb? I think of her as rams' personal mascot.Perhaps, but your team got blown out by Oakland and a wins a win.

mania Posted November 1, 2010 Share Posted November 1, 2010 Speaking of surprising teams, how about Oakland? I've been shockingly impressed with them the last few weeks... seemed like a team that was still several years away, if that, but they've looked good so far.

The Broncos are still paying off Mike Shanahan's contract and McDaniels still has a few years left on his. There's no way the Broncos are going to paying three head coaching salaries.

NJTank Posted November 1, 2010 Share Posted November 1, 2010 If the Broncos continued to get shreaded and lose 13 games I think the 3 coach issue will not be a problem. www.sportsecyclopedia.com For the best in sports history go to the Sports E-Cyclopedia at http://www.sportsecyclopedia.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cujo Posted November 1, 2010 Share Posted November 1, 2010 ESPN brought up a good point concerning McDaniels' job security. The Broncos are still paying off Mike Shanahan's contract and McDaniels still has a few years left on his. There's no way the Broncos are going to paying three head coaching salaries.Sadly for Denver fans, Josh McDaniels will be given at least two more years to run the Broncos into the ground. It will all come down to the status of Tim Tebow. By 2012, if Tebow is losing games and pans out to be the bust that we all think he will be, then, and only then, will McDaniels get fired. I think he should go right now, but Bowlen has shown himself to be a loyal to his head coaches over the years, and I think because of that, McDaniels will have a longer leash.

PurpleRush Posted November 1, 2010 Share Posted November 1, 2010 i don't think the pats will lose another game in the season, i got a bad feeling.We can only hope you're Nostradamus.If the defense continues to improve....good things lie ahead.Best record in football after 8 weeks?Wouldn't have thunk it.Yesterday had that feeling of the glory days of old.We'll see. Still got Indy and @Pitt on the horizon, as well as Jets and Dolphin rematches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saintsfan Posted November 1, 2010 Share Posted November 1, 2010 Do the Broncos really have to continue to pay Shanahan's contract even though he has another head coaching position? That's crazy! I'd agree with Tank though (wow that sentence even looks crazy) if the Broncos don't improve, it's hard to see how Denver can stick with McDaniels?? 2011/12 WFL Champions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cujo Posted November 1, 2010 Share Posted November 1, 2010 After being a non-factor on the field, kissing up to his old team, and ripping into his current one, the Vikings have sent Randy Moss packing.Moss got what he deserved, and so did the Vikings.

TFoA Posted November 1, 2010 Share Posted November 1, 2010 Alright, which one of you said "New England are fools for letting Randy Moss go?"They sure are fools. 6-1, and the guy they traded got waived by the team that got him. New England fleeces yet another franchise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lights Out Posted November 1, 2010 Share Posted November 1, 2010 Several people did, myself being one of them. At the time, it certainly didn't look good for their offense, but luckily, they've gotten 110% from the likes of Brandon Tate, Danny Woodhead, and a fossilized Deion Branch.

mania Posted November 1, 2010 Share Posted November 1, 2010 You have to figure there are several teams who would be taking a look, however, I wouldn't be surprised if Moss comes back to New England.

Cujo Posted November 1, 2010 Share Posted November 1, 2010 Randy Moss isn't going back to the Patriots. They've already replaced him with Branch, and they're unbeaten since he left. Plus, there's a reason they got rid of him to begin with....And since Moss is making the reunion rounds, why not another stay with the Raiders? They're definitely in the AFC West hunt and could probably use his services. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lights Out Posted November 1, 2010 Share Posted November 1, 2010 St. Louis needs a wideout rather desperately.Another intriguing destination would be Detroit. Calvin Johnson, Randy Moss, and Nate Burleson together would be a ridiculous three-headed monster that would certainly put fear into opposing defenses. The Lions might actually claw their way to .500 if they get Moss and he behaves himself. POTD: 2/4/12 3/4/12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
