Yeah, way too much being made of it. I generally ignore the tank crowd anyway. To be honest, I am not sure I would want either of the top two qb's in this years draft. Young is small. He looks great when he is playing on an offense surrounded by five star recruits, but when the talent is more evenly distributed, he might not last long. Stroud is interesting, but still a 1 in 3 at best chance he becomes a successful NFL qb. But if we move up and get one, then I will hope for the best.

Yeah, this really looked like 70's football. Three yards and a cloud of dust. lol I think these last two games answered a couple of questions. Darnold is likely to get a job as a backup somewhere. And Wilks is probably not going to be our head coach.

We also let them win. They are just better at letting us win than we are at letting them win.

Both teams played like crap. Both were unmotivated. But there is no reason for the Aint's to intentionally lose. They just sucked worse than we did.

Bad teams find a way to lose. Both teams trying hard to find a way.

Unless its a coach that has won a SB or two, complete control should always be off the table. It rarely works out well.

Maybe it's because I watched him struggle for years at Wake while the coaches that followed him have done fairly well there, but I don't really want Caldwell. I would be ok with Reich.

This is a battle of the resistible force meets the moveable object.

Raiders owner is complaining about opposing fans filling up his stadium. Perhaps if you stayed in Oakland, built your own stadium, you would have your loyal fanbase. Oh and perhaps not hire Josh Mcdaniel.

Or Heinke thought that it would be better for his career if he stayed out of the Hornets Nest/Spotlight that is Washington Football right now. Taylor has a decent career ahead as a backup qb. No reason for him not to let Howell be the focus of Washington media attention.

This If Tom Brady had protested, he would still be in the NFL playing somewhere. If Will Grier protested, he would not be in the NFL.

When a terrible and shocking event occurs, rumors and accusations fly. Someone says something offhand, and it builds and spreads like wildfire. It will take several days before the truth or at least part of it, comes out. And even then, some won't believe it.

I am fine with the NFL waiting 30-45 minutes to make the official call. As long as they eventually make the correct call. As far as the league telling players they have five minutes, I want to see some proof that was said and that it came from the league. If there is some, then someone deserves to get called out. But until that proof is forthcoming, it's just the usual misinformation that occurs in an emergency situation.

Some might. If they do, I don't blame them. Fwiw though, I don't remember anyone retiring when Darryl Stingley suffered an injury that left him in a wheelchair, but times are different now.

I bet Tee Higgins feels especially bad right now. He apparently did nothing wrong, but even being involved in something like that could be a very traumatic experience.

Interesting comment about fans showing up at the hospital. I commend the interest, but given what is normally going on at hospitals, I hope they know enough to stay out of the way of the people doing their job.

If we get it quickly, it's probably bad news.

ESPN said some of the players also refused, or looked incredulous.

Or perhaps a combination of the players/coaches.

Or just waiting for the traffic to clear. Had I been there, I wouldn't have been in a rush to leave to go sit in traffic.

I think the fans concern themselves too much with the coach being defensive or offensive. If you look at the most recent SB winners, its fairly well balanced between offensive and defensive coaches. I mean Gary Kubiak was a offensive coach who won a SB with a great defense. Mcvay is an offensive coach who won a Super Bowl because his defense shut out the Bengals in the fourth qtr. Sean Peyton was a offensive guru who only appeared in/won a single Super Bowl despite having one of the best qb's of all time. Bill Belichick was a defensive guy who won 6 superbowls with one of the greatest qb's of all time. I just want a good one, don't really care which side of the ball that coach came up on.

Agree completely with this.

Perhaps, but the reality is Brady hasn't been pressured much this year. But most other teams actually covered the receivers. I watched the Arizona game last week, and as bad as Arizona is, and as little pressure as they had on Brady for most of the game, I didn't see Evans running in almost a straight line down the field and blowing by the secondary multiple times.

We sacked Brady as much or more than any other team has this year. The secondary play was horrific.

You are probably right.
