    I hope the Flus girls took advantage of their celebrity status when they had a chance

    Why not Poles? This is the team and coaching staff he built and hired. you tank on purpose you should play the price when it doesn’t work. otherwise poles will get fired 2 years into next coaches contract and then that gm will get a couple years to before an opportunity to hire his own guy. Poles looks to have missed on Stroud and quite possibly Daniels as well. He can’t build an offensive line. this mess is his making

    Wait til they lose to patriots

    And they won’t take one

    Garbage team

    The blackhawks have a chance to pull off a winning California trip despite blowing a game vs the only NHL team worse than them on Halloween. They play their 3rd game in 4 days tonight in Anaheim, which hasn’t played since coming off an east coast trip that ended on Halloween. The Ducks are quite meh. I saw them live last Sunday and they did nothing well. It’s the type of game the hawks can win despite themselves.

    Who is replacing the 10-11 guys getting non tendered? Free players?
  8. jersey cubs fan
    3B, SS and 2B are not interchangeable positions and I don’t really see a point in bringing up Shaw to play 3 times a week

    Lovie was great.

    I’m assuming that’s the way the betting lines are looking. They are dogs in az, should be favored against NE and maybe SEA. Might not be favored in any divisional game depending on how the teams are playing and health at the time. But I would guess they have a chance of being favored in one of the home games. Of all the outcomes I think 7-10 may be most likely. Maybe 35/40%? Just guessing

    7-10 may be most likely, but it’s not likely the best outcome. AZ, NE, SEA @home are all winnable games. 1-5 in the division is very doable and they should be able to win 2. 9 wins is probably the best outcome at this point. 10 wins if Williams catches fire.

    I’ve never considered Flus to be a coach that will help you win playoff games. He’s a placeholder for whoever is going to ultimately get the most out of Williams. People think of Andy Reid as a guy with a reputation of not being able to win in the playoffs before Mahomes fell into his lap, but in reality he was a part of multiple playoff victories as an assistant in GB and won 7 playoff games in first 6 years with Eagles. Eberflus has been a part of 2 playoff wins in his career as an assistant. He probably won’t get an opportunity to win one this year. If he finishes with more than 7 wins he probably keeps his job but I think you’re handcuffing the team going forward with him leading the staff. If he stays he needs an extension, and it won’t be one year. That extension will take you through the vast majority of Williams rookie contract and to the point where the bulk of the defensive players will have to be replaced. It’s not ideal for Williams to have so much early turnover, but it’s better than frittering away his youngest seasons before finding the right guy. But can Poles identify the right guy?

    That is definitely not a game you burn the tape. There are things to learn and improve. You can’t pretend it was some flukey game we just ignore and get past.
  15. jersey cubs fan
    There’s definitely a value. But at the same time it’s generally cheaper to attend cubs games than hawks games at the same time. It’s not unreasonable for it to be cheaper to watch cubs games on tv. I watch them primarily through espn+ and Max. I don’t currently get any local NY sports channels since ditching directv. I might end up getting the msg app somebody but not now.

    A win at altitude is impressive
  17. jersey cubs fan
    Again, not at all comparable. A suspension is a suspension. They aren’t sitting a guy for a half to make a statement. That is not the same thing.
  18. jersey cubs fan
    Getting suspended for missing practices is not at all comparable to a guy horsefeathers up a play. NFL teams don’t bench guys for a half. They’ll cut you, or replace you. But they aren’t making a college coach statement by making you sit in timeout for being bad but then putting you back in because you are the better player. Your examples are not precedent for the discussion here.

    But in general go ahead and hate every team. I’m agnostic this fall, but will enjoy whichever team loses
  20. jersey cubs fan
    Yankee hate is universal and crosses the sports universe. Much like cowboys and lakers. It’s the default team to hate
  21. jersey cubs fan
    Generally speaking people don’t really hate on the good teams for being good until they actually win at least one title. But really more like 2+. That’s universal. Most people don’t care about the bridesmaids
  22. jersey cubs fan
    That’s like a college thing an Alabama team does when they play a cream puff opponent to send a message without risking a loss. NFL teams berate the player in the video room and then generally don’t publicly shame guys as far as I know.
  23. jersey cubs fan
    I don’t really think that is a thing at the pro level.
  24. jersey cubs fan
    That’s unfortunate
  25. jersey cubs fan
    Bummer loss but I only watched first half when Caleb was awful and the defense kept them in it. It looks like he at least improved in second half. but this loss is on Kyle
