Rhule/Brady/Nixon honestly make Mike Shula look like a Hall of Fame offensive coordinator.

Didn't play enough of a role to be picked over Shaq but yeah he was phenomenal in his limited role on ST and defense. Nice pickup, hopefully we can keep him around and expand his role.

Nobody really stands out. I guess Shaq or Reddick make the most sense. No one on offense or ST is even in the running and no one else on D had any consistency. Horn or McCaffrey if not for injuries would be up there.

We all thought this years ago... There are teams out there that will do anything to win, including betting on Brown behaving just well enough and contributing enough for a month or so to help bring them a SB, and they will view the risk as worth it/think they can handle him despite other teams not being able to.

On another note, his outburst along with Godwin's injury pretty much screws the Bucs playoff chances. Evans and Gronk are fine but nothing to write home about and their D really isn't good, they just let Wilson light them up and he has sucked all year. Bucs have barely scraped by and gotten lucky against some bad teams, I can't see them beating teams like the Rams, Packers, Cowboys, etc. in the playoffs. If Brown had his head on straight and Godwin were healthy they'd have a chance in any shootout with that OL and those weapons but without those 2 their biggest team strength is now merely average

I bet a team like the Chiefs or Packers or Rams picks him up for a playoff run.

Yes and no. Completely uninvested in the team at this point but with no clear franchise QB in this draft making draft position less important I would've liked to eliminate the Aints from playoff contention. They probably don't make it anyways so it'll likely be fine but I fuging hate them and would've enjoyed knocking them out in their own house.

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE

I don't want Rhule having a say in what QB we draft though. He's allowed Teddy and Sam to be the "answer" the past 2 years, he's lost all trust when it comes to QB decisions.

I don't think people realize how much better NFL teams are than the best college teams. Even the guys at the bottom of our below-average roster were absolute studs in college. We would absolutely demolish Alabama easily. Yes we suck in the NFL but college and pro are like 2 different universes.

FWIW Jimmy Johnson came straight from college and went 8-24 in his first 2 seasons before winning a couple SBs... Granted, he also improved by 6 wins year 1 to year 2, Rhule has declined from year 1 to year 2.

We do but he's played like 5 games the last 2 years...

Lure him out of retirement with insane money for a couple years to overhaul our OL and develop young coaches under him for the future. This guy is the greatest OL coach in the history of the league (arguably greatest position coach ever) and consistently coached average/subpar players into being top 5-10 OL units. Unsung hero of the cheaters dynasty in NE and one of the main reasons Brady is considered a future hall of famer -- always had a ton of time in the pocket his entire career with Scarnecchia in NE (then shocker he picks TB who has a stacked OL too over other teams and continues to have success). Seriously, this guy can change an entire team's fortunes, especially one like ours that already has a rock solid defense in place. Tepper should make it happen, and make his first good move as an owner in the NFL because nothing else he's done has been good at all.

Honestly though is D enough of an issue that Snow needs to be replaced? I don't really think so. We have some holes and weaknesses there but with the offensive not being able to stay on the field for more than like 1-3 minutes at a time, the D is put in as tough of a spot as they possibly can be and they still rank very well in most categories. Rhule sucks but Snow and the D have been fine. Situational coaching, halftime adjustments, etc. have been a huge issue for Rhule. In theory an experienced successful OC with head coaching experience could come in and help Rhule with that and give the offense life but I don't know who that would be and that's just in theory. In reality it likely won't matter.

Almost zero chance of that. We could beat NO if they're the scrub they're starting tomorrow sucks and starts next week too, hopefully Taylor Hillsom is back by then so he can run through our "run D."

Mac Jones wears braided belts

May not have been official until now but we were eliminated a month ago at least.

Lol no not a degenerate gambler.

We will play plenty of bad teams next year. If we start Sam all year we will have considerably more than 3 wins. Especially if we can continue to add talent to the team in the draft and FA, particularly at OL.

He’s 4-5 as a starter here, not a good tank commander at all.

I hate Sam and we need to draft a QB high but we don’t have much choice but to keep Sam around for a year unless we can find a sucker to offload his contract to.

What does that have to do with my post?

DJ has had some miscues but he's been getting open like a #1 receiver. If only we had a QB who could get him the ball consistently and an OL that could give said QB time. Robby is also much better than his stats this year.

It's really something when Shaq fuging Thompson is now one of our favorite players on the entire team. He's been one of the few bright spots this year.

I swear to god that "timeout" by Brady was called after the ball was snapped and therefore should not have counted at all.
