Reid's a good coach IMO. Whisenhunt was very good as well and I would have definitely kept him if i were Zona. I hope he doesn't move on the Chicago. As for Reid he's a stubborn in game at times, but his planning is excellent. He does have some strong in game adjustments. He's probably the best coach at there. Reid's wagon is hitched to Kolb again with no Vick.

John Childress -> RE: Around The NFL (News) - 2012 (1/2/2013 12:25:58 PM)
Reid was very good until 2004 2004 blew his head up and almost every decision he made after that was bad No one takes their offensive line coach and makes him DC - plain stupid

4-12 Andy Reid first fired coach hired 10-6 Lovie Smith - will he get an offer?

marty -> RE: Around The NFL (News) - 2012 (1/4/2013 3:43:02 PM)
I hear SD is interested in Lovie, and I think it would be a GREAT move for them.

Cincy just got a defensive TD, I think that makes it over an 80% chance they beat the Texans today. I hope the Vikes can come up with one of those tonight.

Bears contacting Trestman about vacant HC job The dismantling of the other division teams appears to be continuing. [:D]

Trestman and Cutler would be umm, very entertaining to watch. In a car-crash kind of way. [&:]

Doug Marrone has agreed to leave Syracuse and become the coach of the Buffalo Bills, league sources told ESPN on Sunday morning. Marrone replaces Chan Gailey, who was fired after going 16-32 over three seasons. Marrone has yet to sign a deal. Marrone takes over a Bills team that has not had a winning record since 2004, when it finished 9-7, and has missed the playoffs for 13 straight seasons -- the NFL's longest active drought. The 48-year-old Marrone went 25-25 in four seasons at Syracuse, turning around a program that had gone 26-57 over the previous seven years. Syracuse rolled to an 8-5 finish by winning six of its last seven games this season, including a 38-14 win over West Virginia in the New Era Pinstripe Bowl. The Syracuse job was Marrone's first as a head coach. He has seven years of NFL experience. Marrone spent 2006-08 as the New Orleans Saints' offensive coordinator and was the New York Jets' offensive line coach from 2002-05

I don't see the Ravens going deep this year, but I think they win today.

What is DeAngelo Hall's malfunction? This is the third play on this drive that he has taunted a player after a play is over. The refs just need to throw an unsportsmanlike conduct flag and shut his ass up.

There is a reason that bad teams tend to stay bad. Poor ownership and upper management. The Bills and Chiefs will not be any better because of the new coaches they've hired.

I see Luck inherited Peyton's benefit of the media always making excuses for your poor play QUOTE: Indianapolis at Baltimore: This once-and-future-Colts pairing was decided by what did not happen -- six times Andrew Luck hit his receivers with perfect passes, and they did not make a routine catch. Had Colts receivers not dropped so many passes, the outcome might have been different. No, he simply sucked. Griffin before injury and Wilson clearly were better

Had Colts receivers not dropped so many passes, the outcome might have been different. No, he simply sucked. Griffin before injury and Wilson clearly were better 1. Is there any untruth to the fact that if recievers catch balls instead of dropping them that the outcome of a game could be different? 2. Where in that statement does the author actually say that Luck is better than Griffin or Wilson? Six times recievers dropped passes...now, were they actually "perfect"...I can see how the media might be twisting the truth on THAT point. But if the receivers catch those passes then things very well could have worked out differently and that statement is not making a claim that Luck is better than any other QB.

We see who the media makes excuses for It is that simple I am not shocked that you can't see it Luck was the 20th rated QB in the NFL yet all the White analysts say he should win ROY over Wilson and Griffin who were in the top 6 It is what it is They explain away his INTs - which are more than Wilson and Griffin COMBINED They ignore that Wilson threw more TD passes and won as many games

Prescott -> RE: Around The NFL (News) - 2012 (1/9/2013 8:15:25 AM)
Well, then it's obvious Luck is going to win ROY. Has to, for this conspiracy theory to be true. There's no way Wilson or RGIII will win it. My real guess is that Luck finishes 3rd in ROY voting behind both of them, and people don't ignore that Wilson has more TD passes, etc. Luck doesn't have to suck for Wilson and RGIII to have had better rookie years. They both did. Luck had a pretty good season in his own right, just not as good as those two, who had seasons for the ages. I do like the narrative that the Colts were actually a good team that tanked it last year, based on how much they improved this year. Meanwhile the Vikings didn't tank last year, and their improvement was legit. Who is good on the Colts besides Andrew Luck? They have an average line, bad running backs, a bad defense, and one good receiver who is way past his prime.
