Good news for people who picked the under on whether or not Urban Meyer's latest NFL stint would last six games.

Tony Khan is about as bad at running an NFL team as he is at running a wrestling promotion. @Incandenza is probably pissed that he's spending too much time focusing on Dynamite and not enough on Northern Florida's top sports franchise.

 

[Zetterberg is God]

Really hoping the Bills can get over the KC hump finally especially with the Chiefs being fairly meh so far (in my opinion).

Patriots should whip Houston this week. It's pretty clear that Urban had an uphill climb in Jacksonville when he called out DJ Chark? for playing little instead of big in the media.

I'm a casual at best football fan and even I knew Urban getting another shot in the NFL was a terrible idea from the get go.

I don't want to be overreacting New England sports fans but if Pats don't wallop (or at least beat) Houston this weekend then it's probably gonna be another rebuild year.

This is his first (and definitely his last) job in the NFL.

 

[Cackling Co Pilot Kamala]

Idk who the hell I'm confusing him with. Maybe Lane Kiffin? GD Mandela Effect.

 

[Hawk 34]

Steve Spurrier probably with the Florida connection. Spurrier was too busy on the golf course to have any dick grinding sessions at clubs.

 

[HarleyQuinn]

Bears acquired WR/KR Jakeem Grant from Miami for a 2023 6th Round Pick. Grant was almost traded to Carolina in the offseason before contract terms made the deal fall through.

 

[Incandenza]

Urban Meyer fuckin' sucks but this would have been a stupid thing to fire him over.

 

[Incandenza]

Even before this there were stories floating around that none of the players and none of his (handpicked!) coaching staff like him, so I'd be amazed if he lasts beyond one season.

Agreed. If the Jags were 4-0 or 3-1 (or even 2-2), this wouldn't be a controversy at all and might even be celebrated in dunderhead circles.

 

[Incandenza]

BARSTOOLIES ACROSS THE NATION AGREE IT FUCKING OWNS THIS CFB LEGEND IS OUT THERE GETTING HIS DICK RUBBED

 

[HarleyQuinn]

Patriots are working to bring back Jamie Collins for his 3rd stint with them. I dunno why Collins even bothers signing elsewhere...

 

[Kahran Ramsus]

Agreed. If the Jags were 4-0 or 3-1 (or even 2-2), this wouldn't be a controversy at all and might even be celebrated in dunderhead circles.

But they aren't. This is just the latest of a series of bad decisions made by Meyer, many of them directly football related. I thought he was on thin ice even before this. He clearly never should have been hired in the first place. Probably the worst NFL head coaching hire since the Falcons hired Bobby Petrino.

 

[Cackling Co Pilot Kamala]

Incidentally, I think Bobby Petrino is who I was confusing with with Urban Meyer for some reason. It's definitely not Steve Spurrier or Nick Saban!

 

[HarleyQuinn]

Patriots released Stephon Gilmore. I think it was pretty clear he wasn't coming back this year and a long-term contract was not going to be worked out. A little surprised he wasn't dealt but that could be due to Gilmore requesting the release himself or such case.

Cowboys also released LB Jaylon Smith in a bit of a surprise move. He had started weeks 2 & 3 but played just 40% of the snaps in week 4.

Lions signed C Ryan McCollum from the Texans' practice squad as they'll be without Taylor Lewan or Frank Ragnow for week 5.

Saints signed K Cody Parkey to replace the struggling Aldrick Rosas.

 

[snuffbox]

They ended up getting a 2023 6th round pick for him from the Panthers.

Jon Gruden Used Racial Trope to Describe NFLPA Chief DeMaurice Smith in 2011 Email

The NFL has been examining more than 650,000 emails, including the one sent by Jon Gruden as part of a recent investigation.

He should be punished for this tbh. I don’t know what an appropriate punishment would be though.

 

[Kahran Ramsus]

Russ Wilson is out probably 6-8 weeks in what could be the beginning of the end for him in Seattle if he demands a trade as expected in the off-season.

Patriots down 4 starting offensive linemen for Week 5 vs. Texans; David Andrews only first-teamer set to play

New England will have to make do with mostly reserves up front

Ya hate to see it....

Looks like they'll likely roll with this kind of combination upfront: LT - Yodny Cajuste, LG - James Ferentz, C - David Andrews, RG - Yasir Durant, RT - Justin Herron. Not sure who exactly will fill in where (or if these 5 will actually be the starters) but they aren't hurt as much as I expected.

Ferentz has been a capable fill-in for years, 1st Round pick Will Sherman was called up and can play either Tackle spot, and both Ted Karras & Alex Redmond can also both fill in at Guard.

I feel sorry for the Jets defense watching the first half of this London game. Their offense is barely functional.

 

[SFH]

Saints fan yelling at the TV over cheap shots on Taysom. I know what ammo every other NFL team fan can lob at me about 2009. Hush. Taysom is a sincerely wonderful human being and didn't need that head shot.

 

[Cackling Co Pilot Kamala]

So much for this being an easy bounce back game, @HarleyQuinn .

Also 7 missed PATs (3 in this bumass Pats-Texans game) this week. What the hell is going on, kickers?

 

[Mickey Massuco]

All this afc east trash, ya love to see it.

 

[strummer]

Mason Crosby having himself a day.

2 missed fgs and a missed xp

And he misses another one!

 

[Cackling Co Pilot Kamala]

Pats scraping out a win against incompetent Houston felt worse than barely losing to Tampa Bay. Still, a win is better than a loss. Onto Dallas.

 

[snuffbox]

Crosby made the final field goal of a wild game.

Nah. Patriots showed way more mental toughness coming back from being down 22-9 and winning. GTFO with this feeling worse BS.
