OT: NFL Thread

BB didn't evolve all that gracefully with modern-day football.

Defensively, he's still a guru. But offensively, he's out of his element and it shows.

Bigly. He was right for the job for a long time and was ruthless in terms roster management. But starting in 2015-16, things (the draft) started to get… weird.
 
They need to get him out of the draft room (from what I can tell, he has a lot of influence) and they need to hire some coaches that aren't his buddies/family.
 
Yeah, that's insane.

The Cowboys are one of the better drafting teams in the league, but every time they select a player that makes us go Huh??? it's the coaching staff with their fingerprints all over it.

Love Dan Quinn as a coach, not a fan of him as a scout.

The game has passed him by. Terrible/weird drafting gutted the offence, a weird obsession with special teams, etc.

Hoodie’s last masterpiece was the SB win against the Rams. 10-3. Brady was just managing the game. That was a contrarian finger in the eye to the more modern game, but really it was a last stand.

Kraft needs to clean house.

he is a Brady creation, what 1 playoff win in 1994 without Tom

Sure. But those were also waaaaaay better teams too. And he did help built them and he coached them. Scott Pioli and people like that were part of the management and played important roles. But things started to unravel even when they were still winning and TFB was still there, Hoodie was just smelling too many of his own farts and was an autocrat.

Anyway, ride through the season and then ease him out. The offence needs a total gut job.
 


Any logical reason why a ref would wait to witness an INT thrown by Mahomes, before throwing a flag for a non-existent penalty that would have had to have occurred roughly 6 full seconds earlier in the play?

genuinely curious, if there’s a perfectly rational explanation for it.
 
I don't know the rules & technicalities enough, but beyond that, I think he's just trying to do two things at once and fucking it up.

The NFL refs shouldn't be part-time employees and should be full-time, fully trained employees without needing a second job during the week.

Refs are not full time?

yeah prob….damn shame cause it absolutely wasn’t a penalty, and the INT changes the game setting up a beautiful finish.

either way, kinda cool Zach became the first QB ever to accomplish completing more passes, for more yards, for more TD passes and fewer INTs than Mahomes in any NFL or College start….a span of 127 games.

They actually don’t need a second job….

The NFL won't disclose how much money their referees make, but based on the expired collective bargaining agreement from 2019, officials made an average of $201,000 per year, according to Money.com. That accounts for all officials that appear on the field, which means the head referees for games could make even more.
