I feel so hopeless after last night's game. Reading reports dunbar tore his mcl or acl. This season has been so bad injury wise. Players just can't stay healthy. Every week just gets worse. Second half offense has been so bad.

Imagine feeling that way all the time.

 

[Dega]

It shows that the supposed offensive genius has no clue how to evaluate the QB position and lacks the balls to stick with his initial assessments.

That's true but he can still turn that around or is his career over already?

 

[eznark]

I like your commitment.

Bill O'Brien would have given up on Bill O'Brien weeks ago.

 

[Hammer24]

I am super nice and friendly during the off season. But during the season all division rivals can, with all due respect, eat a dick sandwich in which the role of the bread is also played by dicks.

Nonetheless... how did this "legit QB" thingy play out for ya?

come and warm yaself on my dumpsterfire

 

[Herbs]

IT's the league's insistence on kissing the ass of any player or coach even remotely related to Belichick.

Unfortunately for them it's much harder to win when you're not cheating your ass off so they are exposed pretty quickly.

NFL GAF should coach an NFL team

Sorry to kill your narratives

Through the first quarter of the 2015 season, NFL place-kickers have converted 94 percent of extra points under the league's new PAT rules. That's precisely the rate most everyone projected based on recent history from the 33-yard range.

And through Week 3, at least, those kickers were hitting 84.9 percent of all field goals attempts -- almost identical to the league's rate in 2014 (84.7) and better than 2013 (82.4) during the same span.

Sam Bradford for Colin Kaepernick.

Who says no?

Going to have to throw in a 2nd round pick.

Fire O'Brien
Hire Kyle Shanahan as head coach
Promote Vrabel to DC
Trade Watt for a shit ton of picks

Just realized Wade Phillips is reunited with Kubiak at Denver. Amazing career resurrection there.

I would do all of those things except Vrabel. C'mon, this is his first year there and the defense has been awful.

You are closer to him. Go get in your car and punch him in the dick.

Dan Campbell taking over Philbin,

Getting ready for the Schwartz train Chris?

 

[Line_HTX]

I am not against BoB. My first post on the subject said I would leave him unranked for lack of data.

Yeah, that sounds about right. This is his 2nd year, I think? But still, something needs to be done at QB. It's just making everything else worse, and dragging the defense down, which, by the way, they need their own punishment after that rude awakening.

I hate this GM.

 

[eznark]

Dan Campbell taking over Philbin,

So to change the culture and right the ship, the Dolphins have promoted a positions coach who has been there since 2010.

OK

 

[skLaFarebear]

PHILBIN.

WATCH.

 

[Dega]

I think line is closest but I have a feeling he would have a hard time against a pre school girl so he isn't an option.

Fire the fucking GM.

Go back to getting the best loot and also getting Platinum trophy on Destiny.

Do it yourself, lazy dog!

OK

Interm, you can't just leave the team without a coach. Not that I'd expect Ross to get it right this time anyways.

In their defense though, Who the hell do they hire in the middle of the season?

Schwartz?

Texans should trade Clowney while he still has value. Build around Watt and that WR.

 

[bionic77]

:lol

Tomlin is a moron.

He still kicks 49 yard field goals at Heinz when he should punt or go for it and loses us one game a year that way. What happened against the Ravens is an annual occurrence for us. This strategy has never worked for us. The odds are super low kicking long FGs at Heinz and even after close to 10 years Tomlin still doesn't know what to do at his own fucking stadium.

So while Tomlin might have been fucking with that player he is also stupid enough to have lacked the awareness as to where he should have been when he was running that kick back.

 

[DeaconKnowledge]

Most disgusting part of that whole debacle was when Dan Rooney tucked his dick between his legs and took the punishment then immediately turned around and started pandering to his fan base about the Patriot way and how the league was screwing them.

Wait..

I would do all of those things except Vrabel. C'mon, this is his first year there and the defense has been awful.

Patriots bias. Its endemic.

I've been thinking that too but I dunno if he is that valuable just yet. lol

Maybe trade next year. I want to see more first before wanting to trade, OK?

Why? O'Brien, just like Kubiak, has FULL control of the roster. he picks the players he wants and Rick smith just fetches them.

Sick of this it is all Rick Smiths fault when it obviously is not

 

[eznark]

Interm, you can't just leave the team without a coach. Not that I'd expect Ross to get it right this time anyways.

Actually yeah I just looked at their coaching staff again. What a train wreck. Bring back Shula.

 

[Alligatorjandro]

Surely this is the time now when the dolphins take the AFC eat from the Patriots.

 

[yankeehater]

-For the Eagles I think they just have a talent problem. Watching Garcon catch those balls, being stronger and quicker than the Eagles DBs, that was my thought. No Eagles WR can adjust to a bad ball and catch it. Or fight and come away with it vs a DB. And the Eagles DBs lose those battles against good WRs

-This will be the offense. With no run game, a shaky QB and no really special pass catcher, they will always struggle to sustain drives.

-That said, the media is a little doom and gloom. Opposing kickers have yet to miss versus Philly, while their placekicking woes have accounted for the margin of defeat in 2 of the loses. They aren't a bad team. They are a middling team with horrendous placekicking.

-Now they might become awful if the injuries keep mounting. They were already down a guard and the two tackles got hurt yesterday. The defense is already down 4 starters.

If there kickers make 2 very makable kicks and they are 3-1 right now are we still having the same conversation about them lacking talent? Bradford was great in the 2nd half yesterday. Even better then the 2nd half against Atlanta. He really stepped into his throws and challenged the defense down the field. If not for 2 more horrendous drops the Eagles win in a laugher yesterday after being down 13 on the road against a division rival. The most frustrating thing about yesterdays game was the penalty that wiped out the TD to Ertz. Lane is a moron for lining up slightly off the line but my god that shit happens all the fucking time. The Eagles are having the worst luck with penalties this year. Also wtf is up with Cousins against the Eagles? Guy is complete trash against every other team, but he is Joe Montana against the Birds. So so annoying.

 

[WanderingWind]

Nah. He's hovering around 10th best QB in the league.

Rogers, Dalton, Brady, Palmer, Rivers and Mariota are all playing better right now. The season is still young, and I'm not such a homer that I won't put Peyton up there. Roethlisberger, Romo and Brees are injured, but lets put them in the mix. I'd rather have Tyrod than Romo.

Carr is balling out too, but I'd still rather have Tyrod so far.

 

[zychi]

I've been thinking that too but I dunno if he is that valuable just yet. lol

WAS or CLE will trade their entire draft for a first round pick with very little film

 

[captive]

Just realized Wade Phillips is reunited with Kubiak at Denver. Amazing career resurrection there.

what? he's been a good DC for a long time.

its his second year actually.

That was a truly sick burn.

Chicago's kicker looks pretty good. Since they are having a fire sale down there I wonder what it would take to get him?

Yeah Armando (Local writer) had a good article on how there isn't a single decent head coaching candidate on the staff
