Sad news...

Wyche was an offensive genius, served as the opposing coach in a couple of the best Super Bowls in history and was the last guy to make the Bengals truly relevant.

He was also famous for calling out a rowdy Bengals crowd with the words "You don't live in Cleveland!" :)

I'm dating myself here but I remember when Sam was a backup to both Sonny Jurgenson and Billy Kilmer.  He was officially third string quarterback but really more of an unofficial OC on the sidelines.  Sam would make observations, suggest plays and adjustments to whichever was the starter.  You could tell that he would be a HC somewhere eventually.

Well done, Sam.  Well done.

He lived in a county adjacent to me.  I guess in retirement he wanted a lot of land and not a lot of neighbors.  Pickens is a small, peaceful, quiet town out in the boondocks.  He nearly put a blemish on the 49ers 1980's dynasty and that would have been a huge accomplishment.

R.I.P. Sam.

      Young QBs lead their teams to undefeated October

      By KaseKlosed · Posted

      Young quarterbacks Drake Maye, Bo Nix, and Bryce Young have led their teams to undefeated records since October.   Drake Maye has guided the New England Patriots to a 5-0 record in that period, with 2,285 passing yards and 17 touchdowns in nine games. Bo Nix has directed the Denver Broncos to a 5-0 stretch, throwing for 1,976 yards and 17 touchdowns, contributing to a 7-2 overall start. Bryce Young, in his second season, has led the Carolina Panthers to a 4-0 run since October, accumulating 1,390 yards and 11 touchdowns amid a 4-4 record.   Undefeated QBs since start of October (min. 4 starts)   Drake Maye 5-0 Bo Nix 5-0 Bryce Young 4-0   Bryce Young when asked about his mindset during game winning drives: "You don’t rise to the occasion you fall back to the level of your training."

      Most hated teams

      By ProcessBlue2 · Posted

      1. Cowboys-No explanation needed. 2. Rest of NFC South equally. If I had to pick I would say Falcons.    3. Eagles- Both of the games I have attended there the fans were so horrible. The fan base is so ridiculously misbehaved, I’ve never seen such immaturity. 4- Lions- I have cousins in Michigan that grew up Lions fans and they are some of the most obnoxious people I have ever met, as are all of their Lions buddies. The NFL has been lucky that Detroit has been in the cellar for its eternity.    5. Tie between Bears and Vikings. Both act like Steelers, Cowboys, Niners fans do with nostalgia and legendary seasons but neither have ever really had them. They act like they each won 5 super bowls in previous decades but never accomplished poo outside of Chicago in 85.
