Be funny if he went to the dolphins.

I wonder if both Parcells and Billick can turn the Dolphins around if that was to happen.

Well, Pacells did fire the GM who is mostly responsible for the Dolphins woes - Randy Mueller. That's a start.

Thank god!!!

i'm remembering the beginning of football season when you talked all this smack about the skins and all high and mighty about the ravens...

😛 😛 😀 😀
 
Billick only lasted this long because of that ridiculous defense and the SB win. He's been a terrible head coach, especially on the offensive side of the ball (where he supposedly is a "guru").

Less than a year after signing a contract extension through 2010. Wow

What's the point of any extension then if it means nothing?

I'm almost inclined to agree with you. I like Lewis, don't get me wrong, but in his 5 seasons, he's went 8-8, 8-8, 11-5, 8-8, 7-9. In the 11-5 year, the Bengals were some crazy 20+ in turnover ratio, but still had one of the worst defenses in the league. Those records are great compared to what Bengals fans have been used to in the past 15 years, but if you aren't getting it done, then it doesn't matter.

Billick is supposed to be an offensive guru, which he never showed. Lewis is supposed to be a defensive guru, which he has never showed.
 
Can my BOYS trade Roy Williams to the Ravens? Take him for free. And he's a former pro-bowler if that sweetens the deal any.
 
13-3 last year and they fire him the next year. wow. wasn't his fault they had tons of injuries on offense.

Oh please. Their offense has underperformed for years. Even their superbowl year they survived on Trent Dilfer "managing the game" and just not doing anything stupid to blow the game.

Plus he's a complete a$$hole.

it didn't underperform last year when they had their offensive weapons (and ogdon) healthy.
 
I'm still pissed off that the Chiefs are going to keep Carl Peterson on as GM and keep Herm Edwards on as head coach. Since Herm has been year the Chiefs have gotten progressively worse. Whoever said defense wins championships was talking out of their ass. The chiefs defense isn't bad, but when they are on the field for 50 minutes out of 60 its pretty difficult for them to be good, when they are tired, after the offense goes 3 and out every time talking a whopping 30 seconds off the clock.:|

Maybe they will get rid of Mike Solarri though, our offenseive coordinator, that guys a moron. He has no guts, never gets creative, and for some reason he really likes to run draw plays up the gut on 3rd and long😕

If this is one general thread for everything football, the title should be altered, otherwise no one will find it in a search. Of course, someone would have to search first.
