Two for Seattle with Thomas Rawls.
So what are people's thoughts about the possible rise of the old bottom teams next season? I sure we all think Raiders and Buccs are prospects.

Eddie Lacy if he didn't get fat
Does this include Tight Ends?
And Jonathan Stewart, finished with 989 while missing three games. DeAngelo Williams,
I like this year's NFC playoffs much more than the AFC's. I think it's more competitive (and more stacked, even the Redskins) and when Cards/Hawks/Panthers face each other they will be very close. Whichever one of them wins the NFC Championship game will win the SB.

Lacy looks like he ate himself haha

this shit is pathetic tbh
like, is the alternative (hire a new coach, resculpt the roster to fit schemes, etc) better than giving your coach more than two seasons, 32 games to be successful? especially when the team performed respectably all year and finished .500? that team would have won the AFC south. jesus. maybe i'm just spoiled/optimistic as a steelers fan. not that firing a coach/gm after a season or two is always a bad idea (see dolphins this year, browns every other year) but man...
also the jets and bills are the only teams to net positive points and not make the playoffs

Well an extension to Grigson's contract means no playoffs for a while until he has a good draft. Irsay is a fucking idiot for keeping both but I digress
Chuck Pagano isn't a bad coach, I wouldn't write him off just yet. Grigson may not be the best, but Irsay is trying to maintain consistency and stability in the organization by not putting it through a coaching/GM carousel like other worse franchises. Give it some time, it takes longer than you think to truly build a great foundation for success. Unfortunately, the amount of time it takes is longer than 99% of fans feel like waiting so most owners will cave to the pressure to keep selling tickets. It's a shame, really, we live in a much less forgiving and patient culture than we did 50 years ago, and you have to produce results almost immediately these days to not get fired.
keep raiders in oakland and move the rams+chargers 2 LA
good thing Whaley is getting an extension and it was a bunch of horseshit, just like all other national media reporting on Buffalo
Don't want to interrupt the conversation but I saw this on NESN and wanted to just drop it here. Pretty good even if you're not a Patriots supporter.
THE_IRON_...KENYAN?
Banned deucer.
ill watch that right after the chiefs walk into foxborough and Smeth the pats back to a one and done
I can't stand the Pats but holy shit it's a great vid. Probably cause I'm a huge Star Wars fan

proudly reppin' 2 superbowl wins since DEFLATEGATE
Huh. It's weird, I never pegged you as a Star Wars fan.
There are rumors that Josh McDaniels will be our first choice if Caldwell is fired and I am so angry I want to projectile vomit on my laptop screen. I don't know what GM school teaches you that Josh Fucking McDaniels, massive failure in Denver who lost the locker room faster than you can say "Start Tebow", is a better coach than Jim Caldwell (who at least is pretty average). Ugh I don't even like Jim Caldwell but the Lions can win with him because he might have literally the best coordinators in the NFL right now I don't even want to know what bumbling squad of failure McDaniels will bring in.
McDaniels is an above average OC but it's kind of hard not to be when you work for Belichick and the extent of your responsibility is deciding which backup guard to use during the victory formation.
Meanwhile Caldwell went 11-5 in his first year and turned a 1-7 start into a 6-2 finish his second year. While it's awful that he held on to Joe "Green Bay Packers Sleeper Agent" Lombardi and 90-year-old Martha Fucking Ford had to fire him, Caldwell somehow kept the locker room and stumbled into JIM BOB COOTER, OC EXTRAORDINAIRE and the team looked like a playoff team for the second half of the season. As shitty as that sounds it shouldn't be bad enough to get a coach with a winning record fired after 2 seasons. Give Caldwell one more year and if he bumblefucks around just can him after 2016 when you don't have to start the coaching search 2 weeks later than everyone else and scrounge the bottom of the coaching barrel.

Well Bob Quinn was with the patriots for the better of the last 2 decades so its not a surprise that the lions would target McDaniels.
Mcdaniels is also one of the best (if not the best) offensive minds in the league, the Patriots postseason run last year more than proves that.
But I don't know if he'd go to Detroit considering their ownership situation, and the fact that hes in no hurry to get a Head coaching job.
Hahahahaha, and another interception for Houston.
