OT: Coaching firings around the league

[venecol]

We can agree to disagree. I like you, you're a good kid, sometimes misinformed, but a good kid.

I like you too. Whenever you come down to FL, mi casa es su casa.

Yeah I have a feeling that Bill has already told Kraft he knows the setup this year has failed and he will get it straightened out with a "real" OC. Hence some of the O'Brien news recently. The only thing I wonder is if Kraft wants to get involved in the QB situation, but I think he will mostly stay out of it.

I'm curious about what you mean by "QB situation" and why you believe that might be a question re. involvement by Kraft.

 

[DaBruinz]

I hope he declines. That place is such a dumpster fire right now.

The Broncos are going to be stuck with Russell Wilson for a while. His dead money cap hit is $107M in 2023, $85M in 2024, $50M in 2025, and $31M in 2026. It's not until 2027 when they can release him and not take a big hit.

Its still a big hit, but at the start of 2024, the donks could designate him as a post June 1 release, spread his cap hit over '24 &'25... His 37m 2025 base salary becomes fully guaranteed if he's on the roster on the 5th day of the 2024 season... Keeps the guarantees in back half of that deal from kicking in... Its still a huge dead money hit - 85m (per PFF), spread over 2 years - but its cheaper than paying out the combined 94m in base salaries in '24, '25, & '26...

What can the Denver Broncos do with Russell Wilson's contract?

The Denver Broncos have Wilson under contract for the next seven years on a $296 million price tag. If a disappointing 2022 season is any indication, that contract — and the trade that led to it — puts the team in a difficult position moving forward.

Wait so you don't think Stephen is good at his job?

Not particularly.

Was watching FOX pregame and the question was asked if any head coach was feeling heat. Jimmy Johnson said that the only heat on BB was from the sun shining down on his statue. Micheal Strahan concurred.

I really, Really hope they're wrong.

 

[captain stone]

No mention of Mayo....

Nor should there be.

couldn’t have said it better myself. Belichick has the coldest seat in all of American sports. Belichick will leave the Patriots one day and it will either be because he chose to retire 100% on his own volition or he died.

No, the reason they won those games is because of inept coaching on the other side. If Brady was so great this year, tell me when was the last time he led his team to more than 20 points?

I agree Bowles is bad though, not sure if he's the worst though, but with all that talent, they should be better. If BB is coaching that team, they are an 11 to 12 win team

You must not be watching much Tampa Bay football this season. You're way overrating the talent they actually have on the field. The o-line as presently constituted is poor. The running game is dead last in Y/G, Y/A and TDs. Their only TE talent comes from unheralded rookies. Their WRs have not been a premium group this season... Godwin hasn't regained his pre-ACL form, Julio is a shadow of his former self, and Evans looks washed.

That their scoring is way down is not surprising if you've been watching their games. But the fact remains Brady has led three critical comebacks this season that if they had lost any of them they would probably be off the postseason radar.

 

[crawhammer]

Bowles can't be the worse HC in the NFL since 3 have already been fired. Bad take.

How is Bowles getting fired when his team has been in 1st place for most of the season? Bucs ownership doesn't have the balls to do it. But it's irrefutable that Dummy Bowles is a horrendous head coach. His stated solution to fix the Bucs offense yesterday at halftime was "run the ball more." More of the worst running game in the NFL was his solution. Ultimately Brady controlling the offense out of the no huddle won the game. 6-6 passing on the game-winning drive.

Probably be Jeff Saturday

Did I miss something? Is this a TB and Buccaneers thread? Can you keep to the threads topic? Why in the world @ashley responded to you is a mystery.

Bowles isn't wrong about the run game. They need to fix the run game or they're getting smoked if they make it to the playoffs.

We have threads because each one has a topic. I read the threads I find interesting. If I skip the threads where you talk about TB and the Bucs I would have to skip over most of the forum. Why can't you respect others and talk about the topic of a thread?

Did you see Fournette gain 0 yards on 2nd, 3rd & 4th-1? They ultimately won the game with the passing game. Brady had 170 yards in the last 10 minutes of the 4th and OT. Dummy Bowles was wrong per usual. And their NFL worst running game certainly isn't leading them to victories in the postseason.

Your content here. Is that what you call on topic?

 

[SammyBlueCat]

Coach Hackett AND Russell Wilson are both bad this year

He'd have been fired at least month ago but, well... politics.
