I looked for a Belichick thread to put this in, but I didn't want to bury it. Rich Eisen talks about how NIL has changed the way things are done now. He starts by talking about how Caleb Williams approached the combine was affected by the money he's already earned. He gets into Saban walking...
Now that the Brady/Bill Era is behind us, and it's full on off-season, I thought it might be fun to play some what if scenarios. Some possibilities:
What if Drew never got wrecked by Mo Lewis? Is drew still the QB in 2002?
What if Asante caught the interception? Do they win? Do we feel...
Given the Tom E Curran story that the Krafts decided to move on from Bill after the Germany game, I don't think it's too early to start talking about Jerod Mayo and his candidacy for the HC of the NEPs. I have started going thru things in my own mind and thinking why (and why not) he might be a...

I know there's been a lot of drama here of late, so here's Lily made up like The Ultimate Warrior. Happy Halloween.
Yes, I know this isn't the place for this.
Too bad Schefty didn't use the clown nose picture.
In the end, as long as the NFL is making money quite literally hand over fist, they will keep this guy. None of the 32 owners care about what a dink this schmuck is, they only care about
This was in the Brady retirement thread, I felt it was worthy of it's own thread. For me, the first three faces are easy: Bill Russell, Tom Brady, Bobby Orr. After that, it gets tricky. Pedro was as dominant as there was, when he pitched it was electric at Fenway. David Ortiz was as clutch of a...
Panthers fire head coach Matt Rhule after 1-4 start to season
Cam then Darnold then Mayfield. Not a lot of improvement. I am not a Carolina guy, but seems like personnel is the problem there. Still, 11-27 ain't gonna fly. Maybe they should launch the GM/personnel guy.
From where I sit, Brady has set the bar so high that no one in the NFL will ever duplicate or exceed what he's accomplished. Where do you rank him in the pantheon of other great athletes? Team sport: Bill Russell is the gold standard. 11 rings in 13 seasons. Jordan, Jabbar, Magic, Kobe, he's...
The thread on the Jags AFCCG got me thinking. This one is more for the OG's than the young guys, but you young guys can weigh in too. Bonus points if you have a "I was there" story to tell. I left off anything from the Brady Era.
Photos With The Super Bowl LIII Trophy | The Patriots Hall of Fame
The 6th (SIXTH!!) Lombardi Trophy will be on display for photo ops this weekend. I am torn about going. Three hour drive, long ass lines and a long drive home to NH. Thoughts?
I didn't bother with the link, because it's everywhere. The real question is: Do we really care? I can't help but feel this is media driven, trying to make themselves relevant. Brady didn't want to talk about it last year, and he clearly doesn't want to talk about it this year. I could care...
Mark Rypien on His Mental Health Struggles: 'I've Been Down Dark Places'
We were talking about CTE on the banning kickoff thread. Everytime I see one of these former players with one of these stories, I cringe. It's awful. We all love this sport, but here's another reason for Little Johnny's...
I have stated before that I am far from a draftnik. I don't follow it that closely. But looking at the combine this weekend, there's two stories that stick out to me.
1) Shaquem Griffin. Stupid fast in the 40. Any one know anything about this kid, beyond the obvious "disability"? Doesn't look...
Off-season thread...
I am constantly getting into discussion with a guy here at work about Brady vs. Rodgers. He wants to give all the credit to Belichick and calls Tom a system QB. I know how to handle him, so I don't want this thread to go off on tangents about system QB's, Brady v Belichick...
