Yeah, of there is a mandate that the new GM retain Judge as coach then you can pretty much cross off every proven GM from the list of potential hires. Nobody but an unproven commodity will take that job if the head coach is forced upon them.

Good news = Gettleman fired.

BAD news = Judge NOT fired ??? o_O


Not only has Judge richly earned being shown the door IMO, its not often you see a new-hire GM succeed with somebody else's head coach pick still in place.

What the Giants need to do is clean house.
Belichick tree coaches give persuasive sound bites. It’s his revenge for the Giants stealing two Super Bowls from him. Belichick is The Calamity and his coaches are his avatar.

Not sure who sucks worse @ QB Hurts or Daniel Jones .... its a tight race! :(

May have to jump over to Bucs/Colts soon ... what a dud of a game.

Pats D wasn't good at all in the early season.


Certainly not to the level they are now.... last I saw the Patriots defense was ranked 4th in the league and that may be a conservative estimate.

Even so I suspect if Henry was healthy the score would be 10 points the Titans way in the fourth quarter.


EDIT: Game 99% over barring an unexpected big stand by the Titans D after that pick .... Tannehill minus a strong running game is not championship-level.

don't think I've ever seen Hurts look good in the NFL, which surprises me. He looked great in College, and I know that is no given, but what I liked about him is that he always looks super poised and really mature, in face of the kind of BS that was handed to him with the Alabama benching season, then coming in at the end, again, etc. I thought, if anything, he'd come in and play smart from the get go. He just looks...bad.

Trevor Lawrence is as bad as I thought he'd be. Granted, could be the Jags just suck. I haven't watched any of those games.

Denver and Teddy Bridgewater are looking a lot better then I was expecting to see .... seems like the Saints made a bad call letting him go considering the joke Winston was at QB before getting injured.

Kickers showing that the hockey gods control their minds. Posts after posts and it doesn't look like it will end.

Lol, Cleveland going full Cleveland tonight. Landry did not get rid of the football in time and #99 is fast.

The Titans rushed for 270yds today, their main issue was turnovers and Tannerhill fading badly in the 2nd half.

I saw that .... strange stat considering the game. It really didn't seem like they could move the ball on the ground when they had to and Tannehill had no confidence as a result especially towards the end.

I think maybe its not as much the lack of a ground game as lack of Henry specifically in the offense.

Also as I mentioned the Pats D looked better then 4th in league.... Mac Jones is talented but that NE defense is tough.

I see Cam Newton got pulled today after going 5/19 with 2 picks and a rating of 5.8, me thinks the experiment there is about over.
