Steelers Broncos Buccaneers Saints Panthers (maybe) Colts (maybe) Texans (maybe) WFT (maybe) Eagles (maybe) Packers (maybe) Vikings (maybe) Browns (maybe) Giants already said they were keeping Jones, I just hope they get a better back up this year. Carolina and Washington are definites. It's a near certainty that the Giants are getting Trubisky. He knows Daboll's offense plus his skill set is similar to Jones. Both guys are athletic although I think Jones as the stronger arm. Quote Link to comment
Wellman Posted January 29, 2022 Share Posted January 29, 2022 I hated Brady for so long. But much like Kobe and Peyton he won me over mostly because of being funny on TV (that T Mobile commercial is great) and proving he is legit and not a product of any system. J-ride 1 Quote Link to comment

Wasn't sure if Carolina was still going to try with Sam Darnold, with the hiring of Ben McAdoo not sure what they want to do. Same thing with Washington, not sure if they still want to try with Heinicke or if Fitzpatrick was going to take another crack at it if healthy. It's kind of funny that the Giants are just taking from the Bills (although they were also considering Flores), Trubisky will surely be better than Glennon (if they sign him). Quote Link to comment
Darc_Requiem Posted January 30, 2022 Author Share Posted January 30, 2022 I'm a Washington fan and I live in the Charlotte area. Panthers were trying to get Watson before the Trade Deadline. To top it off they gave Cam 4.5 million for a half a season. That tells you what they think of Darnold. Fitzpatrick was a rental and dude was near 40. He was always going to be a hold over until they got a young QB on the roster. Heinicke is well like but dude is a back up/bridge QB. He's younger and cheaper than Fitzpatrick so he can take the role that Fitz was going to have. Rivera has already said "All options are on the table" when asked about acquiring a franchise QB after the season. globe and Gimpy 1 1 Quote Link to comment

purbeast Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 (edited) Bruh there is absolutely 0% chance WFT is rolling out with Heneicke next year. ZERO. He sucks (as a starter) and is a solid backup. He will be a backup most likely on the team though, which I'm fine with. It was VERY apparent after like week 10 or so that he simply does not have the tools to be an NFL starter. Fitz probably is going to hang it up. He's old and had a hip injury that most young people don't go back to being normal after. BUT ... this is WFT we are talking about here. They are the most incompetent org in the NFL so you never know with this dumb ass team. Edited January 30, 2022 by purbeast Darc_Requiem and globe 1 1 Quote Link to comment
Darc_Requiem Posted January 30, 2022 Author Share Posted January 30, 2022 I feel for Raiders fans. Why anyone would give McDaniels a shot is beyond me. He washed out the first time but that happens with a lot coaches. After what he pulled with the Colts though, I wouldn't hire that due to wash my car. Wellman 1 Quote Link to comment

globe Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 In other news, Brain Flores is suing the the Giants , NFL, and the Broncos for racial discrimination in NFL coach hiring.

Wellman Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 Yeah, I am surprised more haven't done this. The Rooney Rule while noble intentions basically just has owners/front office guys pulling in brothers and folks of color for the interview with no intentions of them having a shot.

Allegedly Belichick sent Flores a text congratulating him on getting the job three days before he was interviewed. He walked it back. So when whoever with the Giants told Belichick "Brian is getting hired" he assumed it was Flores. Belichick walked it back the text, but Flores put 2 and 2 together. They already decided on Daboll they were just "honoring" the rule. Edit: Josh McDaniels getting a job says all you need to know about the "fairness" of the NFL hiring process for head coaches.

I can't stand that guy. All he's done since he got here is lie to everyone and this was the last time I can take it.

Lantis Posted February 8, 2022 Share Posted February 8, 2022 Damn....all this talk about Brian Flores and the Rooney rule and I immediately remembered the last coach who took the Bears to the SB: Lovie Smith (who also got fired after a winning season) And now it turns out he's the new HC for the Texans. Funny how that works Quote Link to comment
Wellman Posted February 8, 2022 Share Posted February 8, 2022 Even my mom, who doesn't watch the NFL but has been able to follow the local sports bears due to news looked at the Smith hire for the Texans and called that a shame hire. No offense to Lovie but the Texans and the surprise hires under Cal have always been about someone's personal dealings and less about getting potentially the right guy. Not that I can say either McCown or Flores were going to be good picks either way with this team's other issues. Quote Link to comment
Darc_Requiem Posted February 8, 2022 Author Share Posted February 8, 2022 A lot of people think Lovie is just keeping the seat warm for McCown. Quote Link to comment
