That made me laugh!! :heh:

He and JJ are obviously HoF players, but yeah, they do love their own brands. Over-saturation is obnoxious, tho'.

Well, we say that but people keep gobbling it up, which is why they do it.

It's like everyone complaining about how ridiculous $14 beers are but the line is a mile long.
 
The Titans are apparently still screwing arounc with Josh Gordon......mostly on the PS..............the situation is set to explode again sooner than later, as he has seen minimal action.
 
I don’t understand why he wasn’t hired last cycle. I wish he would have interviewed here. But that lawsuit over NRG turf has probably left hard feelings between both parties. He is going to be a great HC for someone.

Draft talk seems to be far and away the favorite subject on this Board so sometimes I'm puzzled why so many posters seem frustrated when the Texans are playing badly because the worse they play the more relevant they become in the upcoming Draft ?

I've been a big fan of Ryans ever since we drafted him and in the beginning he was a stellar leader as I think he became defensive captain very early in his time here, and he was also a successful and very popular player in Philly after being traded there, another reason he might be uninterested in continuing his coaching career here though I think his wife is a Houstonian which could help us here if this ownership had the snap to approach him.
I've often wondered what the differences were between Demeco and his former teammate Brian Cushing in making one a very successful coach and coaching a dead-end for the other while both clearly had a passion for football ? I dunno but I'm guessing that one is a leader with very excellent people skills while the other is lacking in both areas ?

They aren't going to hire Ryan's. Lovie will be here next yr and Ryan's will get a job this off-season.

Cushing didn't move up the ladder because he had other irons in the fire and he coached under BOB. I'm sure the steroids stuff hurt him as well.

Two of my favorite Texans (Demeco Ryans and Aaron Glenn) are now NFL DCs. Demeco is coaching one of the best defenses and Glenn's unit looks more like Richard Smith's defenses.

Glenn needs alot more talent to work with. Luckily the Lions have the picks to make a difference. Like the Texans, the Lions LB's are awful, minus Rodriguez.
 
Watching Browns v Chargers. 2 missed fg's and Brissett threw a pick in the redzone when he could've ran it in. The Browns have blown 3 games this season they should've won. Karma I guess

Saints v Hawks on condensed TV. Hawks defense can't hold water. Geno making him some money. They're in the games because of Geno which is strange to say the least. Taysom and Kamara balled out.

Rhule is a better college coach. UH may need a HC moving into the Big12.

If you don't have one, you're going to get fired. Sometimes, these college coaches need to look at Bobby Bowden and guys like that. Ruhle is a really good college coach and in college right now, they make as much as pro coaches. Why deal with the stress when you don't have too.

Still cannot believe with all of the available coaches from the Shanny/Kubiak tree, Carolina gives a former Temple and Baylor HC with one year as an NFL assistant a ridiculous seven-year, $62 million contract. That decision might be worse than hiring Culley or handing control of an NFL franchise to BOB and Easterby.

Considering, they have to still pay the remaining years, he might take a couple of years off and enjoy the fruits of Carolina's stupidity.

I thought Brady has some good concepts and he fired him last season. After that, it was downhill
 
He’ll get a slap on the wrist because he’s a star but he should lose a game check at the very least… probably week after next against Texans if I were in charge of discipline. You don’t get to just shove people because you lost a football game. And you definitely don’t get absolved of being a prick if you apologize far away when cameras are present. It wasn’t an accident just a star being a prick to a “peasant”.

I didn't see the incident, but watched a highlight reel of the first TD - Carr threw a deep one that was an absolute dime and Adams made a great catch.

I partially agree, but the media guy was a prick also. He ran in front of Adams hoping to get a shot and shoved his camera right in Adams face

He did his job the same way he is asked to do it every week. First time i’ve seen one of these people get shoved to the ground by a player.
 
Just watched Bengals v Ravens and again, coaches need to take the points especially in 3rd qt. Bengals could've tied the game and kicked off. They eventually scored and went up only to let Jackson get loose a few times and allow Tucker to win the game. Burrough is not playing nor is the highly invested ol.
 
Report: Daniel Snyder believes he’s protected by dirt he has on other owners and Roger Goodell
Posted by Mike Florio on October 13, 2022, 9:32 AM EDT


As the Washington Commanders prepare to enter the national spotlight tonight on Amazon, a new report from ESPN puts the team’s owner in the crosshairs. Again.

ESPN.com has published a lengthy and detailed article about Daniel Snyder. It surely was carefully vetted by lawyers and calculated to be published today, as the Commanders prepare to visit the Bears on Thursday Night Football. The story also will resonate into next week, when the league’s owners gather in New York for a quarterly meeting.

Often in #longreads, finding the best stuff requires the patience of Job and/or an electron microscope. In this one, the most telling information, in my assessment, comes at the very top of the article.

“Cradling a drink in one hand,” the article explains, “[Snyder] tells members of his inner circle about the dirt he has accumulated on fellow owners, coaches, executives, even his own employees — all the stuff he’s learned from other sources, including private investigative firms. He never says exactly what he knows, only that in his 23 years as owner of the Washington Commanders, he knows a lot. And that in the zero-sum world of billionaires, this is how you survive. Snyder recently told a close associate that he has gathered enough secrets to “blow up” several NFL owners, the league office and even commissioner Roger Goodell. . . . ‘They can’t **** with me,’ he has said privately.”
That meshed with something I’ve said and written on multiple occasions. They are afraid of Snyder. They’re afraid of what he knows, and of what he will do with that knowledge. Some believe that Snyder, one of the few people in possession of the notorious Jon Gruden emails, leaked those items to the media. If that’s true, Snyder quite possibly intended it to be a warning to anyone else who would try, in his words, to **** with him.

The report comes at a time when a Congressional probe apparently is moving toward its conclusion, and when the NFL has commissioned another investigation of Snyder. The letter his lawyer sent last week to the House Oversight Committee shows that Snyder is girding for a fight. If he will indeed fight dirty, that’s reason for the league to press pause before trying to gather the 24 votes needed to activate the eject button.

This issue spills over to so many NFL issues, including the non punishment of League owners and, in turn, the soft landing given to Deshaun Watson.
