Apparently the rumor is that Jennings is out there talking about peoples wives and kids. Real pos.

He's a double edged sword. Some players are. Smitty could be one of those too. Delhomme definitely was. Yeah, it makes being a fan a rollercoaster ride but we all oughtta be used to that by now.

Coen, rookie coach, has his team in 1st place, missed the playoffs last season. Harbaugh, Chargers have been competitive from the start, and all season, despite losing both tackles for the year. Schottenheimer, possibly if the Cowboys win the East.

Colts are not even going to make the playoffs

Ben Johnson? Its one of those two guys

JaMarcus Russell could drive it 20 yards easily but that didn't make him a good QB.

Funny you mention Grossman because his name regularly surfaces in my head as a comparison to Bryce. Different strengths and weakness, but similar overall quality.

Same stats? He’s already hit his career high for passing tds, comp pct, passer rating..

You know, believe it or not, it is actually possible that professional football people might truly believe that Bryce is genuinely good (it happens to me too). And to be clear, my "hurdles" are pretty much just facts of life anymore, but hey... (I am getting more opportunity to enjoy the board these days)

Tier 1: Johnson, Vrabel, McDonald, & Shanahan (coaching through the injuries was impressive) Tier 2: Steichen has lost some steam but still has impressed. Hard to discount Payton. Canales is in these ranks for me. Overall, I actually think McDonald could become the fave if the Seahawks win the NFCW

I’d love to see what Riley can do with him at the other USC. He is the one who helped Hurts at Oklahoma as well.

Ya know, it's not technically "googling" if I refer to a spreadsheet I created myself

Awards go out before the Super Bowl too I think. We should have gone after Vrabel. The ultimate Tepper flaw IMO is the personality types he wants working for him

I ain't the former (I wish ) Not gonna claim I'm the latter. That's for others to judge. (not the type to toot my own horn) Appreciate the kudos, though. Many thanks

Mike Remmers deserved credit for helping us get to the Super Bowl. Don't really care whether people were willing to give it to him or not. He helped us win games too. Go back to the 96 season. Kevin Greene was a big part of our season up to and including our playoff run. But what happened in the championship game? Sherman Lewis looked at the tape of our games up to then and formulated a strategy to run specifically at Greene. And it worked. They ran all over us. Does that erase how much Greene helped us win that year? Nope, sure doesn't. There are always gonna be some players who are better than others, sometimes markedly so. But with the NFL landscape having as many teams as it does and as many players on rosters right now, and even those players being subject to a salary cap, it just isn't possible to build the kind of roster you could create in decades past. That's just a reality of the modern game. Every team is forced to build up some units at the expense of others. We're no different. And the bottom line right now is that as much as you, me, or anyone else wants us to put a priority on finding another quarterback, the team might not see that as a need.

Oh dang never would have got A&M. We got 2 NC State on the OL so figured there’d be another sprinkled on the roster somewhere.

I think the move makes sense. Theilen just wants to play to finish this last one out. His wife and family are bacK home. Rodgers just wants a human that will run correct routes. Steelers in a dead heat for the division. Makes sense. Throw him in the slot and let him play some TE style ball like he did here. It’s low ceiling but Rodgers willl likely make use of it

Notre Dame, USCe, NC State, and…. Alabama?

Dang missed it by 1

I had forgotten to rule change also. Stupid rules. I hate rules.

Depending on stats in a team sport is a massive gamble. QBx has a far better completion percentage than QBy. Is he better, or are his receivers better? QBa has fewer passing yards than QBb, but one plays for a team with a bell cow runningback while the other plays for a team that runs a high percentage passing attack. RBq has far fewer rushing yards than RBz, but he also doesn't have anything close to as good a set of blockers opening holes for him. Those are only a few examples. You could easily find dozens more. Baseball is a sport that lends much better to individual stats as a measuring stick. Football is a hundred times more complex; hence why stats can be misleading.

Thank you. I’m glad you agree.

That would take a SB win and I'm certain even that would do it.
