Interesting comment from Belichick

Could possibly be related to Caserio and/or McDaniels now or at some point down the road...

Remember that Caserio was set to take the Texans GM job last year (now said to no longer be available) when the Patriots effectively blocked it by lobbing tampering charges that turned out to be bullsh-t. Caserio was said to be pissed.

Likewise, McDaniels has been in the position of heir apparent to Belichick for years and likely withdrew from consideration for the Colts job with that being one of his expectations. Now there's talk that Belichick might not be so ready to go just yet.

It's not an accident that Belichick has a rep for being one of the most vindictive a--holes in the NFL. If the two of them leave for the Panthers or another team, things could get... interesting.

What's the worst he could do, spy on our SB practices again?

He can't effectively block either interview if we request them.

He did an end run with the tampering charges last year to keep Caserio from leaving, but given that those were determined to have no merit, I seriously doubt that's gonna work again.

May not be a lot that he can do, but I certainly won't put it past him to try.

And if the end result does leave him fuming, I'll laugh my ass off.

The way McDaniels left the Colts holding their dicks in their hands, I don't know that I'd want the guy as a HC.

I might not either, but Tepper being friends with Bob Kraft definitely influences things.

There have been rumors that things aren't exactly smooth between Kraft and Belichick for a while now. Who knows how that plays out?

Greg Roman.

Can't believe they let Lane Kiffin slip away without so much as an interview.....lol.

I think Roman would be a very viable candidate. Stefanski too, although he hasn't been successful for as long as Roman or McDaniels have.

The big wild card for me is how much that connection to Kraft is going to count. Plus it's been confirmed that we already inquired about both McDaniels and Caserio last year. Gotta figure that plays into the scenario as well.

      Sorsby to the supplemental draft

      He doesn't seem good enough to justify the risk

      In that case its in his best interest to fully recover.  We are in a much better situation to judge his condition. It would be more risky for another team to throw money at him.  Taking a reasonable deal from us seems the most likely outcome if he is on track to return.

      Run Threat Rate -- is this good?

      By Khyber53 · Posted

      Looks like we're fifth in running plays/play action plays when in the lead and about 10th in the league when we fall behind.  The biggest thing I take from this is not that we drop off like that, because every team does, but that we drop off so much. A lot of the best teams don't  drop off much, depending on the game situation, preferring to stick to their game plan through out. Some of those are very good teams. Baltimore barely deviates from their run/action heavy plan. At the other end, KC also barely deviates, but they have one of the least run oriented attacks in the league by these stats. On the other side, there are teams that make even bigger shifts (based on last year's performance) and they are teams that for various reasons found themselves in desperation attempts. Dallas, Atlanta, the Browns, Bucs and Bengals were all literally throwing out their game plans and trying to either lean on their top end QB or were just frantically trying to create something downfield. Considering the years of us completely abandoning the run (oh those Matt Rhule days), maybe we are starting to stabilize. Don't even get me started on the Reich days...
