NFL 2019 Wildcard Weekend

[MJ5150]

The guy who owns the Browns says he'll hire a coach first, then the GM. That way, the coach has a say in who the GM is.
That seems backwards to me.
He also said him and his wife are leading the committee to find a new coach.
He doesn't strike me as someone qualified to evaluate an NFL coach, and no one else in his committee seems to be either.
Then again, he signs the checks so I suppose that's all the qualifications he thinks he needs to make the choice.

3/5 of the committee: Haslam, his wife, and their son-in-law. There are two actual football people involved, but I don't know their qualifications and they can presumably be outvoted by the family. I'm sure this will end well.

They also reportedly have "strong interest" in Urban. I bet that isn't reciprocal.

I love me some Fitzmagic!

FEAR THE BEARD!

The words "Strong" and "Interest" were used talking about Urban Meyer and the Browns.

Urban is due for some humility. Let's make that happen, shall we?

edit:

And can we just not bring up the shellacking 'Bama gave the wolverines.


Please?


Aw who am I kidding, they deserve it after that kinda stinker. Elite D my achin' back . . .

And can we just not bring up the shellacking 'Bama gave the wolverines.

In the NFL thread, that shouldn't be a problem.
You wander over to the NCAA football thread and I can't guarantee no one's talking about you khaki pant wearing buddy.

Sam Wyche has passed @ 74 today.

Browns can't even get the hiring process right Owner says Browns will hire coach before GM

 

[mrpackerguy]

Jason Garrett's contract will not be renewed.

 

[MJ5150]

Coaching carousel gets a new member. I wonder how long he'll float till someone grabs him up.

Garrett? I don’t know, his hiring always seemed Cowboys-specific to me. Maybe he’ll be a coordinator somewhere.

Is “Fail Coordinator” a thing?

I don't think that matters to owners. Look at the carousel of jokers on it now.

If you remember when the Cowboys originally hired Garrett they didn't even know what they were going to do with him. Then they hired Wade Phillips to be the HC. I agree, I think Garrett might be headed for the College ranks if he can. I don't see much in the way of NFL action for him. He is young though.

I think this might have been my favorite play/penalty this year.

Jason Garrett could handle drawing up plays like that!

Jason Garrett could handle drawing up plays like that!

It's a play the Browns should have executed this season, not the Steelers.

It's a play the Browns COULD have executed this season, just like the Steelers.

Fixed

The Cowboys reportedly interviewed Marvin Lewis. Lewis is a perfect fit. He's a yes man and won't say a word about Jones meddling with the team internally and publicly.

...just saw Brady's arrival in the stadium.
He was smiling at people, acknowledging people, fist-tapping people...the ones that march in like they're the King Of Siam, headphones, sunglasses...could learn a thing or 2.

I have no dog in this (Eagles? LOL)...go Pats!!!
