  1. Players did get pissed at Pederson for that final game, and rightly so. But the problems that led up to that were pretty thoroughly documented by Eagles writer Jeff McLane. Basically, Lurie wants to be the head coach/GM/ etc. Howie Roseman is okay with it. Pederson, not so much. AS to Harbaugh: Niners veterans still grumbling about Jim Harbaugh Deion Sanders says 49er players want Jim Harbaugh out This stuff was happening despite their winning record, so it wasn't a "winning cures all" sort of thing.
  2. The only guy with any Panthers connection is Jared Allen.
  3. Harbaugh wore out his welcome with his players (similar to Gruden, but faster). Pederson wore out his welcome with Jeffrey Lurie, Reich with Otis the town drunk.
  4. The GM who made that pick was the same one responsible for a lot of those prior round two failures.
  5. I could definitely see him wearing out his welcome. Already happened once. The other is someone else's hypothetical. The entire discussion is hypothetical.
  6. Taken from various poster's comments about him either tiring of the job or wearing out his welcome. It seems to be a common expectation, though most who've said it don't seem to have an issue with it.
  7. Good points overall, though I gotta say I genuinely don't give a flying sh-t about the "marketability" of our assistant coaches.
  8. Nothing is a smart move unless it works out, of course. But let's say you take Harbaugh, and in doing so bypass a guy like Shane Steichen. Harbaugh has the kind of decent four or five year stint that many people here are talking about, then leaves because that's his shelf life. Maybe that includes a championship. Maybe it doesn't. Meanwhile, Steichen goes on to coach for ten or more years somewhere else, maybe picking up a championship or two along the way or perhaps even just coaching his team to be a perennial contender. In that case, how smart a move was it, really? I know some people are okay with short, successful periods. I'm not. I prefer someone who's in for the long haul.
  9. No bottle in the house. Just paxlovid for Lady Cowboy Fan. (I'm still negative so far)
  10. Was joking about rumors... Now with that said, my worry about Tepper is his love of big, splashy moves. I prefer smart moves.
  11. We're trading for Deshaun Watson soon. Tepper will move heaven and earth to get him
  12. I'd imagine the Vikings story might have embarrassed Harbaugh somewhat. He basically walked into the building like he owned the place. Then when they said "thank you, no" he responded with "well, I didn't really want the job anyway". That's kind of a "yikes" moment to me.
  13. It's not exactly hard to look stuff up And hey, it works well as opposed to just making dumbsh-t statements which require no intelligence whatsoever. "Fug Fitt", for example
  14. Honestly, people on a football forum running with rumors that may or may not be factual doesn't surprise me that much
  15. Joe Buck has said repeatedly that the word was coming from the NFL. Albert Breer has characterized it as the league and officials following normal protocol, which more than anything shows they didn't grasp the reality of the situation. That in and of itself is more insensitive than evil. But the league has been trying to rewrite the story, making it one of those situations where the cover up is worse than the act itself.
  16. General belief was Payton wants the Chargers but it's not certain they fire Staley.
  17. I didn't. I just put in context what I was quoting (as opposed to your entire post). Now, if you want to say that Moore is a better #2 receiver than a #1, you're not the first or the only person to make that argument. And I'd agree there could be some validity to it. It's kinda hard to say for sure though given that he's about the only threat anybody takes seriously at that spot. Marshall has potential but it's still just that so far.
  18. It was in one of the post Rhule firing articles. Might have been Breer. Also could have been Person or Charles Robinson.
  19. His run after catch ability is among the best in the league.
  20. Looked it up. Apparently he hasn't had an agent for years.
  21. Putting Vincent out there is smart because he's a way better speaker than Goodell. Ultimately though, he's still stuck defending bullsh-t.
  22. Update: So the league has gone from "We never said that!" to "Well, somebody said it. We don't know who but SHAME ON THEM!!!"
