Kitchens in his illustrious coaching career has been a coordinator and called plays for 8 whole games

Lewis for DC, imo.

Right. Career position coach until a few months ago. They could have done better, so good with me

I don't get the Williams love. The Browns let up the 3rd most yards/game this year. I can't say that I remember a Saints D ever being anything better than "meh."

It's funny, you generally don't see really bad defenses winning Superb Owls. But the Saints were in the bottom 1/4 or something of the League the year they won. (Altho I think they were top ten the next year, which all sorta coincided with the Bountygate stuff.)

Heard Ray Fittapaldo(sp) saying that he doesn't think Butler is going to lose his job. That's unbelievable.

As long as you believe Wentz can stay healthy (not that you didn't deal with that with Ben), that's such a lay-up deal to make...no way Philadelphia would do that. AB for Wentz? Wentz was the MVP of the league in 2017. And he's a kid still. AB effectively gave his two weeks notice...

Again, it's no way from a Philadelphia perspective...and it's not close either.

You're a legit insane person if you wouldn't trade, in their current scenarios, AB for Wentz...

But it's no way because Wentz won't be available, since Foles has to walk, right?

He doesn't *have* to, per se...but he likely will...

But the Eagles would be stupid to trade Wentz, period. Especially for an expiring WR who is passing his prime...

One year left, aka next off season "We have decided not to renew his contract."

Postby **robbiestoupe** » Wed Jan 09, 2019 5:02 pm

Please. If they are willing to eat AB's contract, they'll eat a shitty DC's contract.

Problem is, they don't think he's shitty.

That sounds terrible, but then again I hate the modern mumble rap garbage.

Why are all the words of that sentence capitalized...? Maybe it spells something...?

Postby **NTP66** » Thu Jan 10, 2019 8:55 am

I just assumed that it was typed out by an idiot.

Postby **blackjack68** » Thu Jan 10, 2019 9:01 am

From a headline somewhere?

Postby **NTP66** » Thu Jan 10, 2019 9:05 am

The quoted text was a headline on steelersdepot.com, I believe. It was a sentence within a post by Peter King somewhere.

The full sentence:

“As we sit here today, it’s hard to envision that. But there’s no sense on closing the door on anything today. There’s snow on the ground. We don’t have to make those decisions right now.”

GMNH levels of hedging in that there sentence.

Finally addressed the subpar secondary coaching issue with the pride of Sharon PA (not counting Marlin Jackson, Daffins, or ulf)

Munchak’s contract was apparently up after the season and Denver is hot on making him their offensive line coach.

Postby **willeyeam** » Fri Jan 11, 2019 4:59 pm

Someone should be fired if he gets hired away and not extended here
