TD alt

I think you guys are vastly underestimating the power that McDermott had. Terry Pegula, during his presser, said outright that Keon Coleman was NOT BEANE'S next choice. Beane gave into the coaching staff because it was a collaboration. That's what Pegula said. Now we'll likely never know which picks were Beane's and which picks were McDermott's, but suffice it to say that there is a reason McDermott was fired. Pegula basically said that he thought they had hit a wall with all the almost-wins-turned-losses, and he thought that they needed a change. Pegula also addressed the narrative about Beane making some type of power play. He flat out said that had Beane done that, he would've been fired on the spot. For anyone that's interested, it was a compelling interview to watch or listen to.

They all provide some value at or around their current numbers. I'd be reluctant to let a solid, but unspectacular, DT (or OT for that matter) just leave without talking to him.

Meh. You don't necessarily trade a king's ransom for a draft pick, but you should strike when the opportunity presents itself. It's all about scouting and taking the BPA. You don't pass up on a viable QB---your guy who's just sitting there--just because it's year one to three and your team has holes. Just build your team.

I mean, it's still one of the best jobs that one could have, only 32 in the world. Tom Pelissero said to watch for Sean McDermott at that very same job on Rich Eisen yesterday, & extolling the virtues of the job and why McDermott might end up there. They wanted Saleh however. I can't wait to see what he does. This is his last chance to be HC more than likely. He'll get that defense up and running again, no doubt. What will probably be key is his hire for OC.

I heard on ESPN or Fox Sports, that Beane's role has actually been expanded. He's President of Football Operations, but he still retains his role as GM.

I would give that illustrious characteristic/title to X, formerly known as Twitter. Well, maybe so called social media in general. X is just the top, or the bottom...

Also, I will say @kungfoodude, AI is not inherently a bad thing, especially within the context of the Internet, searching and aggregating information. You just have to realize that in its current iteration, it's not error free, so you have to check the sources, but the better it gets the more accurate it should get. It doesn't replace critical thinking, it's a tool in order to aid critical thinking. Just because someone uses AI to gather information doesn't make them wrong. It could make them "lazy" in the sense that they should double-check the veracity of information and sometimes they don't. But, AI is a tool, at least for now, and that's really the concept behind AI: to aid humanity. It may be a wondrous thing a century from now.

Nah, just a modern world full of typos with the emergence of texting while doing other things

I mean, I was accused of "simping" for the guy, so...The Huddle gonna Huddle. I guess people's feelings are genuinely hurt that McDermott got the axe. Like AI explained in the other thread, it's unfortunate, but he was the HC for players that underperformed time and time again during crunch time (much like B-more for Harbaugh). Even owners get tired sometimes and perceive that a change is needed. Coaches are generally the ones that are fired in these situations, especially when teams really are championship-caliber.

Dolphins hire Jeff Hafley as HC. https://www.nfl.com/news/jeff-hafley-dolphins-hire-packers-dc-next-head-coach There were several interested teams, including the Steelers.

TERRIBLE throw by Beck! Could've been a TD.

Dumb penalty time

Let him end it.

I just hate being too conservative near the end. McVay's pussy play calling near the end of regulation should've lost them the game last night.

Miami is about toast.

Do you guys hate Dan Morgan. Give the guy a break for his first draft. He did take the future OROY last year.

Becker is a beast. Mendoza has that faith. Great chemistry.

Another first and time will become a factor for the Hurricanes.

He still has a lot of learning and growing to do. If he does, I can see a first in his future.

The game's not over. Neither team or coach are scrubs. I don't know where some people may be getting that idea.

Holding on Marion

Tom Brady has got to be smiling after that.

They can put a hand on them as long as they don't change their path. Mendoza had a lot of desire on that TD.

We'll see if Mendoza learns from his mistake. I can see pros baiting him to get INTs by playing off.

Damn good play calls on the last drive by Miami. A little misdirection and fakes by Beck.
