  1. Agreed. And the offense avg'd more than 28 pts after Nagy took over the play calling
  2. This same thing has happened before. Doug pederson turned a handful of games into the Philly gig and that has worked out well for them so far. Who knows with this but time will tell. I think the biggest question is can he get Fangio to stay
  3. Both schefter and rappaport have confirmed this. Now I wonder if Fangio will be willing to stay
  4. Yeah I guess he was very high on him and wanted the chiefs to trade up and get him but they couldn't get that high
  5. Breaking news on the score. Adam jahns is reporting that Nagy will be the next head coach for our beloved
  6. Problem is that out of everyone we have interviewed the only person that we can actually announce the hiring of prior to Fangio becoming a FA is Nagy
  7. He should take the colts. Hopefully. Part of me just doesn't want him here
  8. Personally I don't go getting all wrapped up in all the cheating scandals. What's the old saying. "if you ain't cheating you ain't trying" or something like that. But honestly speaking I don't get into all of that. I think all the greats try to cheat in 1 way or another. It's just that the best no how to not get caught
  9. Yes. He had 3 very bad QBs who combined for 4200 yds I think it was
  10. Not any time soon at least. But with gruden's deal I bet we start seeing more of those. Especially with teams that don't care so much about the $ amount. As there is no salary cap for coaches. With the raiders move to Vegas I'm guessing the move to gruden alone will bring in that kind of cash although the play on the field may not be successful
  11. I'm seeing so far the majority of those who don't want McDaniels here is because of mistakes he made during his 1st time coaching. I thought we lived in a society of 2nd chances? I know we all want that perfect coach who doesn't have any blemish on his resume and has called plays before for several yrs and someone who never makes mistakes. Can we just stop. That candidate doesn't exist. If this is your only reason for not wanting him I don't see it as viable excuse because it's a mistake he made and he spent so far 7 yrs learn from it. Now personally I don't want him and it's got nothing to do with Denver. I just don't see his offense as the reason they succeed out in NE. I personally think it's got everything to do with a certain 40 yr old QB who is still performing at an MVP type level. Brady has made pedestrian targets look damn good his entire career. That's not McDaniels doing. That's Brady. The other thing is right now McDaniels can probably pick any job he wants as he's the top guy and don't see our job as the hottest job available so I honestly don't think he chooses us. I think we are looking at top 3 guys of shurmur, defilippo and maybe Nagy coming here
  12. It's a different yr though as well. Where there aren't any great ones available. The best available is probably McDaniels. Sad but true
  13. Guys ignore that ESPN article. That's what has started all that drama. There is only 1 thing in that article that doesn't seem completely made up and that's about his personal trainer. And according to Andrew Brandt who has served time in the packers front office and is very connected around the league he says this type of stuff goes on in almost every locker room with the star players Because those players have always gotten preferential treatment and they would rather have there own guy instead of the team guy. But in the end this basically all about nothing. There is a part in there that says that bill wanted to bench Tom Brady at beginning of yr an go to Jimmy G. Use rational thinking with this for just a minute. Tom Brady is a future 1st ballot HOF who might be 40 but he is still producing at an elite level. No way any coach is going to bench Tom and go to the unproven back up. He would have been run out of foxboro quicker than a flash of lightening. Bill is considered the best coach in the league. Do you honestly think he would have even entertained that idea. We have all known for a long time that Jimmy was going to get traded it was just a matter of time. So pardon me for a second that I am not believing that Tom Brady forced the Patriots into trading him by giving them an ultimatum. Tom Brady did force them into trading him simply because of his play on the field is still at an MVP type level. Nothing more than that. I stuck behind ESPN for longer than anyone else but even I can't stand behind them anymore. It's just all crap now
  14. My best friend is a raiders fan. He's saying there are rumors out there that David told McKenzie to do whatever he had to to get Chucky otherwise he would be looking for a new job
  15. Can we please stop the petty name calling and such. Stick to the topic or just drop it all together
  16. Yeah I wouldn't be upset about shurmur. The work he's done this yr with basically a 3rd string qb and a backup QB is very impressive
  17. There was a report out yesterday I think by josina Anderson saying that they had satisfied the rule by interviewing 2 candidates. Except the weird part is that I haven't heard any name actually linked to an interview outside of gruden
  18. According to schefter the raiders are going to give Gruden a 10 yr $100 million deal. Why is a part of me hopes that gruden completely stinks up the place. That deal could really hurt the team if it don't work out
  19. 1 problem with moving fast is you still can't officially hire the guy until team is eliminated from playoffs. So with all 3 in shurmur, McDaniels and defilippo would mean not until after next weekend. Just curious as I don't know but if we come to an agreement with 1 of them is there anything that could prevent another team from swooping in last minute and getting him. Or is it more like a gentleman's agreement you don't do something shady like that
  20. That's pretty bad. Maybe it was just to satisfy the Rooney rule then
  21. Is the saints offense a juggernaut because of Carmichael or because of Sean Peyton
  22. I heard earlier but I forget where that our OL coach is heading down to Miami. Is gase trying to become Chicago of the south. It was funny talking to my coworker today and now after this news she might stop being a dolphins fan lol
  23. Well technically they can't interview will until next week. His team plays this weekend in the playoffs whereas the Minnesota guys and McDaniels don't play this weekend. So they can interview. Even after interviewing they can't announce any hiring any after that person's team has been eliminated from the playoffs or until after the Superbowl
  24. I can't even bring myself to listen to the radio anymore. The other day I turned on a sports talk station and for an entire 15 Minutes the only thing the guys talked about was some former basketball player had started dating some model. So they talked about that and trying to guess how they met and how romantic it might have been and how long this fling would last etc etc. This was a national sports talk radio show. I'm sorry that's not sports related and personally don't care who is dating who. When I tune into a sports station I want to her something about sports. Not personal bedroom stuff or politics
