Not a bad gig considering he had to go back to college.

true on both counts. but I also don't see Jones attempting tight window throws when the field gets compressed. That's the main thing that soured me on Jones as a QB. Secondarily, I'm not interested in a starting QB whose only plus trait is running with the ball.

That's why I'm still cool with Daboll. We've seen other coaches have similarly bad breaks, and the team implodes. CoughMcAdooCough. But the one problem with that logic.... Daniel Jones was out most of the season, but the offense improved after he was injured.

I think the team will have to regress for Daboll to get fired.... But they won't have to regress much after a near disastrous 2023. He can't have much slack in his leash after last season. Whatever Mara says about it, there's no way Daboll is still on scholarship.

its probably more that the Titans are a more certain situation. Its a new front office, a new coaching staff. Wilson has probably a three year runway there. But here, Daboll is already going into year 3. There's no indication he's on thin ice, but year 3 is year 3.

Seems like it. Makes me wonder to what extent, if any, Daboll getting McKinney's back vs Wink was a political machination.

and the whole 'omg the fix is in' bullshit, come the fuck on. The worst call I saw all game went against the Chiefs (no call on a hold in the end zone). I was rooting for the Ravens at the start, but I found the way they played the game so off-putting that by the end I was rooting for the Chiefs. Cheap shots, mental errors, pointing the finger, a style over substance offensive gameplan. They aren't going to win shit with that QB.

I didn't get why the broadcast team acted like the shove wasn't part of the flag. At every level of football, in every era, shoving an opposing player is a flag. And shoving a guy who's already on the ground isn't just a flag, its a sure sign you're dealing with a fucking idiot.

It wasn't 'for some reason', there were clear reasons.... he missed a lot of practices due to minor injuries, which suddenly, magically, went away as soon as he was traded. I didn't think he was faking injuries either..... but I do think he's a whiny little bitch.

he's a better DC now than he ever was with us.

It’s surprising he hasn’t had more interviews…. until you consider that probably not many head coaches want a guy who’s liable to run to the media.

I didn't realize he was already on their staff, as a 'consultant'. Fat lot of good Fangio did them in 2023.

Mahomes is so much more unlikeable than Brady. He's QB Karen.

that's even better news than their first round playoff blowout!

there's some smoke, but I'm not basing anything *anything* on info that came via Pat Leonard. His whole thing is twisting words around to create controversy. I kind of think he's the last hold out of old school NY sports media though. They almost all used to be awful, now its pretty much just Pat Leonard.

lol, well.... the same thought occurred to me.... definitely a red flag that he'd be friends with that douche. But a rule that's served me well, discard at least the 50% most salacious details from any Pat Leonard article, if not ignore him completely. That dude is a known liar, I refuse to even click a link that has his byline.

Pat Leonard? We're quoting him now?

Two (high) firsts, a second, a third, and change. This should be the 90s Cowboys all over again.

LOL, didn't Bienemy resign from the Chiefs just last year too? I'm up to six minutes of research.... lol, men and dudes, resignations are perfectly normal.

After doing a whole five minutes of research.... now I'm not sure its even true that most coaches are fired. I would have guessed that was true as well, but just based on a quick look at the activity this offseason, we've had a few head coach firings, a couple head coach resignations, and the vast majority of the assistants on those staffs regardless of the head coach's disposition have not been fired, they've either been released via settlement (i.e., the Wink treatment), or are still, for the moment under contact, likely with a settlement forthcoming. So 'most'? - maybe 60/40 at most, yeah. But maybe the opposite, maybe wildly in the opposite direction. And I'm pretty sure I have said, I think the way Wink was handled was perfectly fine. I'm not going to call it 'right', we're talking about two grown ass assholes here, it's disappointing they couldn't get along, but --- it was fine. The thing that mystifies me is why anyone would try to conjure up some sort of moral issue around it.

I'm not sure why you think it aids your point that Wink's resignation is somewhat unusual. .... especially because its only so unusual that its the second time in three years that Wink has been through this. And a general point, I wouldn't advise basing one's opinion of what is right or acceptable on whether or not it is of the 'majority'.

LOL no they're not. Seriously, they're not, right? Right? WTF is the world coming to.

you are clearly applying the moral standard of an at will workplace to men that work in a highly competitive enviroment; the kinds of guys that have agents, contracts, and enough assets that collecting unemployment isn't worth the hassle. Its an absurd, misplaced standard.

your point being?.....

They should have just fired him. It was so rude of the Patriots to be mean to Belichick until he resigned.
