Fipp has done an amazing job with the Eagles ST, that still doesnt mean that a prospective coach wont have his own guy. A smart owner would leave it up to the new HC to pick his own staff. The Eagles have set this search up in such a way that they will be forced to settle for some bottom of the barrel scrub like Pederson.

If someone doesn't take a job because they are saddled with arguably the best ST coach in the league over the last few years then I am glad.
So how many obnoxious Panthers fans have you been dealing with lately?
Thankfully losing to the Falcons shut them up. There's a guy in the office who is actually a Panthers and Leicester City fan so he's had a really good sports year so far.
It's so funny though, because, a couple of years ago, I would go to games and the people would be fucking depressed and the Panthers would be winning! It's a weird sports town.
This is fucking awesome. I'm gonna be in Yurop for the Championship games.

Personal playlist, not watching any music channels and going to bars instead of clubs. That being said I know of the songs I just don't listen to them. Rap now a days outside of Kendrick and Cole is pretty much garbage.
Because the Browns cant give my boy Kave a winning season.
Another fuck you fact:
How did I ever doubt BOB? I have sinned and beg forgiveness
Kendrick is awesome! Saw him live a couple of years ago and didn't know any of his shit but man what a show.

Paul Domowhich is a buffoon who works for a tabloid. His source told him Jon Gruden wanted the job... a half hour later Gruden personally texted Howard Eskin (also a clown but much more reputable than Domo) that he had no interest.

Whoa, whoa, whoa let's not get crazy now.
Hiding behind this year's Packers team, I see.
Exactly, they are not the worst. Sad that people have such short term memory since it has only been a few years since two teams with losing records made the playoffs.
What does record have to do with it? Especially if we are comparing records from different years.

Last years Cards team has to be the worst playoff team ever. They couldnt get 10 yards on offense if you gave them 8 downs to do it. That was such a pitiful display.
I actually think they are pretty damn similar to this years Texans team.
To be clear, I don't think the Texans are the worst playoff team ever, just that the stats mech is posting make them seem like they are.
One of those teams won a playoff game though.
Oh, I thought you made it sound like they are the worst team ever, lol
My bad for misreading.
I previously stated they are probably one and done but both the Chiefs and Texans are both eerily similar. I just dont understand the "hype love" the Chiefs seem to be getting because they are on a 10 game win streak. Look at the 10 wins and it really isnt that impressive.
Why cant the Texans win? This game will come down to defense: who gets a score off a key turnover will more than likely be the deciding factor

I've been calling for Tyrod since we won the Superbowl. I"m sure I can dig up posts saying "Start Tyrod, let Joe walk", and you all said the same thing.....He just won you the Superbowl, how can you let him walk? So did Baltimore miss how good he was, or was it just that they weren't going to ever give him a shot because of Flacco?
Texans have beat one playoff team all year. Houston is not really in a position to compare schedules.
PFR has the Chiefs SoS at 1.6, Texans at -2.4 (baseline of 0).

lol, what choice did they have? No team would ever bench a 25 year old SB MVP, especially not after giving him a $120m contract. In a lot of ways Flacco winning that SB really hurt the team going forward.

Live or die by thethree deep ball.
Live or die by the
I'm sure that the team had chances to lock Joe up earlier but waited and it bit them in the ass.
Additionally, Joe has rarely had the luxury of having an OC for more than 1 year at a time. How about allowing the QB to operate in one offense for more than a year before giving him the axe.
But as fans we don't have all the information that a team does. So for us, the perfectly rational move is to pay Flacco. But the Ravens should have known. The Packers moved on from Brent. SF moved on from Montana. If those teams can move on from those guys, then BAL could have move on from Joe Flacco
e: Crisco I had a post yesterday on how many deep balls Cam was throwing, and how well they worked. I figured it was Ginn and that confirms it. He drops a lot but the guy gets open.
Chiefs have beat three playoff teams all year.
They beat the Texans Week 1.
They were the beneficiaries of an injured Manning throwing 4 picks and having the worst game of his entire career. And split with Denver.
They defeated the Landry Jones lead Steelers.
None of those teams are even close to being in the same form now, that they were when KC faced them.
Aside from that, they lost 4 games to playoff teams. GB, Bengals, Denver, Vikings.
I remember the Ravens putting Tyrod in a game (dont remember the reason) but he damn naer went an entire quarter without a pass attempt. It was blatantly the most disrespectful thing I've ever seen lol. Made me wonder what the perception of him was, within that organization.

I thought the big narrative from that year was that the Ravens wanted to sign Flacco to a modest extension and he refused and decided to "bet on himself". I mean I guess they could have upped their offer but I am sure they didnt think he would catch fire in the playoffs that year like he did.

This is some real hindsight is 20/20 shit, because I got crucified for even suggesting this.
Packers and Niners moved on from their QBs when they got old, and when they had 1st round QBs waiting in the wings. And they had gotten old. Flacco was like 26 and had just completed an insane Superbowl run. There's a pretty big difference there.
That's exactly the story. Apparently they were just 1 million apart on a deal that would have had like 35 mil in guaranteed money.
And those three crippled playoff team victories are more impressive than any win on the Texans schedule, except maybe the Jets.
Thanks. And they struggled against bad teams they should have rolled over like the Chargers and Raiders (Carr gifted them a damn game). The Texans were not world beaters but they handled the Jets (with Yates in his first start) and beat the unbeaten Bengals in Cincinnati on MNF with their starting QB leaving due to a concussion. Beat a Colts team playing above their talent level, in Indy with Brandon Weeden for petes sake. QB who wasn't even on the roster 3 weeks prior.
At minimum the Texans rolled the bad opponents they should have rolled over: Titans and Jags while the Chiefs struggled.
That's fantastic good job NFL
When did they give Joe that big ass contract? That's a huge mistake now looking back.

If Ted Ginn had good hands he would have almost 20 TDs this year.

After the 2012 season:
The cap hits are just so crazy, lucky for them only 2 more years left.
And got clowned by the Dolphins, giving up 44. On top of giving up 48 (!!) to the Falcons and 30 to Buffalo.
The only good team they have played in 6 weeks is New England, who demolished them..and since then has lost 2 of 3.
Chiefs +118 point differential
Texans + 26 point differential
After he won that Super Bowl. He bet on himself and won basically.
If they wouldn't have some other team would have. How do let a Super Bowl winning QB walk right after he wins with no clear cut successor waiting ?
