      Reading more about Brady today, it's nothing i didn't already know, but sometimes just reading it blows your mind

      The man has two HoF careers. It's ridiculous. You can split his career in half and put him in twice. Just sustained barely-believable success.

        Also, Brian Flores is fucked

        The league has proven over and over again you can do absolutely anything, and keep your place in the league

        Absolutely everything except show the owners to be a bunch of old white racist motherfuckers.

            Washington new team name to be announced tomorrow.

            By all accounts it's going to be the Washington Commanders.

            sounds like a team from Any Given Sunday

                After a season where Flores probably exceeded expectations, or at least didn't do nearly as poorly as a bunch of coaches, he got the sack much to the surprise of many pundits.

                I guess he has decided it's time to go nuclear. I guess it will slam the door on coaching in the NFL in the future

                Well, Hue Jackson has come out and said he's got some evidence he was asked to tank as well.

                Strap in folks, this shit could get real. The NFL lawyers are world class though, and have avoided discovery at all costs so far. Will be interesting to see if other folk join the class action suit.

                        Can you imagine the time and money spent on googling every reference to Commanders, looking through history books, convening focus groups and committee after committee to ensure it doesn’t have even the slightest hint of anything attached to it.

                              crazy isn't it. i wonder what the issue is?

                                It can't be just because he is black.... Sure he has Mahomes, but you can't tell me he shouldn't have a HC job already. Just baffling and another example why pundits in the US feel that the owners are taking the piss over the Rooney rule

                                  What I don't quite understand is teams like the Bears going for a defensive head coach. You have a young QB in Justin Fields - the risk you run of having a defensive coordinator as a head coach is you end up recycling offensive coordinators/offensive systems if they are successful as they get picked up for head coaching jobs elsewhere.

                                  Look at what happened to Alex Smith at the start of his career - he had a different coordinator/system every year for the first five years or so of his career with two defensive head coaches (Nolan/Singletary). At least with an offensive head coach you can keep the same system even if you lose the offensive coordinator (see the 49ers this year).

                                        As I said in my edit above. Leaving Bienemy and Leftwich, the OCs of the last 2 SB champs on the table seems like lunacy.

                                          Steve Young was asked on PTI if Tom Brady could ever come back. Without any factual basis he said if Brady ever came back it would be for the 49ers, not far from where he played high school ball. Imagine that.... 🥳
