I guess the NFL is taking the Frank Abagnale approach...

...by putting Jon Runyan in charge of on-field discipline.

As a player, Runyan was a dirty, cheating sack of s--t. And now he's going to be in charge of handing out discipline for on-field infractions.

Runyan constantly got away with holding (among other things) including once in a particularly contentious Panthers-Eagles game in the mid-2000s. He was holding Julius Peppers on pretty much every play and it never got called. I was ready to blow my stack.

Heck, why not name Rodney Harrison his assistant? While you're at it, but Jeff Fisher and Bill Belichick in charge of the rules committee.

PFT sees the irony as well.PFT

Not quite the same area.

Say he'd been in this position last year; Runyan could have been the guy to decide what to do with Odell Beckham after he speared Josh Norman in the head.

    • A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.
    • I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand. 
    • Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
