    The Dung? Booger McFarland?

    I was wondering what the Aaron Rodgers assistant comment meant when I read that earlier. http://deadspin.com/who-will-be-the-most-fascinating-person-in-sports-in-20-1491648228

    I don't get. Their Bill Simmons approved GM is obsessed with all things Patriot.

    Eh, there's probably like 20 competently solid QBs out there and probably the same number of head coaches. I wasn't really trying to compare the situations, as I wanted Lovie gone and Jay to return. But was just making a point about how players probably aren't in tune with the front office and its intentions.

    Detroit. No Washington. No Dallas. Dallas seems so perfect.

    I wonder what the talk was last year when it came to Lovie's future. I'm guessing they expected him to return. It's a lot easier to randomly, unexpected decide to make a coaching change than to make a QB change, especially when you don't have another QB in place as a replacement. I would think it is just as easy to not bring back an unsigned QB as it is to fire a signed head coach with no external shenanigan issues coming off a 10-6 season. Or at least similarly difficult.

    I feel like God owuld turn around most defenses :wink: But in all seriousness, is there much difference really between a 3-4 ILB and 4-3 MLB? I think Dansby has played mostly in 3-4 defenses in his career. Seems to me if the team is desperate for LB help the last thing they want to do is go 3-4, thus requiring even more LB help.

    I find that statement to be preposterous. They are nothing like a train wreck. We're talking about NFL teams hiring and firing coaches within a year, meddling owners, nutjob head coaches running QBs out of town and guys coming down with diseases. Philly just came off a long run of terrific success and is not even close to being in disarray. The Cubs of the past 15 years are so much more of a train wreck than Philly. Their ownership situation is questionable at best right now and in some way shape or form are being held back by financial issues. Philly doesn't belong on the list.

    Multiple teams blowing past the limit is going to create an extreme rise in inflation for those costs and greatly reduce the value in blowing past the limit to any one team choosing to do so.

    now that's sarcastic
  13. jersey cubs fan
    Do you know what the word perspective means? You said their situation mirrors the Cubs. It does not. You said you grew up rooting for the Phillies you'd hate it. Well, you'd be one of the few. If you were the least bit honest you would have loved to have been a Phillies fan the past decade and knowing their financial strength probably have a lot of confidence in an ability to turn things around. Amaro sucks, but that does not compare with the discussion about shitshow organizations that started this entire discussion. The Phillies don't belong the list.
  14. jersey cubs fan
    Putting Philly on that list is absurd. It's Amaro. If I was a fan of them, I'd be hating things right now, but from a fairness standpoint, I guess their current situation kind of mirrors ours from a few years back. Their first sub .500 season since 2002, a couple years removed from a 100 win season, several 90 win seasons, five straight playoff appearances, 2 NL pennants and a World Series title? That's quite a mirror.

    He's pretty much married to a 4-3, cover 2/quarters based scheme. Not sure if you guys want that or not. Fine with me. Defense doesn't have to be great. Just has to be average. The bend but don't break style is fine if you aren't constantly breaking.
  16. jersey cubs fan
    No need to prioritize position beyond the typical prioritization that ranks pass rushers ahead of most other positions. I'd lean defense in the first but wouldn't hesitate to a take a higher rated offensive player.
  17. jersey cubs fan
    The Bucs should bring back Lovie.
  18. jersey cubs fan

  19. jersey cubs fan
    Not true.

  21. jersey cubs fan
    Probably deservedly so. That's a talented team.
  22. jersey cubs fan
    Don't kid yourself into thinking it doesn't need a lot of work. This offense was handcuffed quite a bit this year with the need to play 6 lineman at a time.

    I was thinking the same thing. There are some teams that it'd legitimately be hard to continuously pull for over time. I've complained about being cheap at times, but that may have been Angelo moreso than McCaskey. Some of the biggest NFL disaster teams are the biggest spenders. True too. I think my main gripe was more of a weird allocation of funds by Angelo than a true lack of spending. My problems with Angelo were that he did not find an NFL caliber OC to run things and allowed the defense first, special teams second, offense third mentality of Lovie Smith to determine everything. Then his horrible handling of the offensive line depth between the Columbo draft and Williams draft, and finally, the couple of complete disaster drafts, starting with the past Super Bowl one.

And the Bears were never particularly cheap. They spent big quite often, they just ignored some important spots and/or failed miserably in a few others.

    As annoying as Mike McCaskey was, the plethora of shitshow organizations in this league really makes me appreciate the Bears for not being a disaster.
