    Next Up: Division Round vs Titans

    Yeah Bills D is good but I don’t fear the Bills. I don’t think our CBS played a very good game that day (nor vs Jets) and I think we cover up their recievers a bit better. Besides Allen isn’t accurate with the deep ball and it that day his accuracy was affected by a relentless pass rush. That...

    Black Monday - 2019

    @allblackraven has been predicting Roman to Carolina for some time now. I’ve heard nothing linking him to Carolina. I’ve heard some analysts say that could be a possible fit and an article in the Charlotte paper suggested they bring him in but nothing requested as of yet. Given who they have...

    Black Monday - 2019

    Honestly Marrone deserves more time this was a weird season. While I wish well for our coordinators I am a fan and am going to be selfish. I’d love for them to find HC gigs ... but maybe after we have a Super Bowl championship or two under our belt. So at the moment one less job opening is a...

    Black Monday - 2019

    So won’t this put a damper on the coaching search? Don’t you normally want a GM in place during that search? This organization is a total train wreck. No prospective candidate should consider this job as anything but guaranteed failure.

    Next Up: Division Round vs Titans

    Yes I watched Yandas interview and felt the same way. Don’t gimme this rust crap we beat people up so it will be our advantage to be rested. Laser focus. An excellent blend of savvy vets and high energy young players. Also watched Romans interview and felt the same.

    Next Up: Division Round vs Titans

    Meh ... I agree the Titans are dangerous but I wouldn’t rank them over KC. As fun as it was seeing the Pats shit the bed against Miami it would have been nice seeing KC and Titans play and seeing one of them get eliminated. But again .. bring on all comers. We got this

    Next Up: Division Round vs Titans

    Haha really. I think there are many in the mid Atlantic states that may know the outer banks of NC but not know the contrived acronym OBX. Actually I’d not heard the OBX reference until I moved to NC 15 years ago. I’d been there many times in the 70s and early 80s one of my favorite places...

    Lamar Jackson

    When did Gottleib become an NFL guy? NCAA hoops he was bad enough ... I've never head him say anything that ever made any sense.

    Lamar Jackson

    I've not heard Jim Harbaugh mentioned as a candidate for the Carolina job (or for any NFL job for that matter). While Charlotte Observer stated they felt Roman would be a great candidate and that many people posting seem to feel he'd be a good fit, no request for an interview has been made by...

    Lamar Jackson

    Probably pissed that Lamar got the Heisman over Watson and that Lamar is getting more love than Watson now in the NFL

    Next Up: Division Round vs Titans

    In many ways, I'd rather face either Bills or Texans than Titans ... but you just can't say. Titans, particularly if they have Fuller back by then and if Watt is playing and effective, they could be a problem. I think I just need to take that attitude that - I don't care who we play. If we go...

    Next Up: Division Round vs Titans

    Man these WC games in the AFC are really hard to call. Titans actually seem to be the hottest of the group, but really can they be trusted to go into Foxboro and win? Yeah, the Pats may be just that bad right now and no amount of summoning the spirits of the past can get them by. Titans 24 Pats...

    Wink Martindale and Greg Roman

    Job openings and interviews requested: Redskins - Rivera (assumed to be a done deal) Panthers - Mike McCarthy, Eric Bieniemy, Josh McDaniels, Matt Rhule Giants - Eric Bieniemy, Josh McDaniels, Matt Rhule, Kris Richard Browns - Mike McCarthy, Josh McDaniels, Robert Saleh, Greg Roman, Urban...

    The Random Thought Thread

    The Browns are the only team thus far that has requested an interview. Other teams have named up to 3 or more candidates and did not include Roman. The Cowboys and Jags are yet to announce. I don't know that he is going to fit the Cowboys profile. I anticipate they are going for a brass ring...

    Black Monday - 2019

    True ... though I think the Cowboys job is open and that just goes without saying. Really, the Jags are the only one where a change is expected, so I'm thinking we'll end up with 5 or maybe 6 I had the sense that it would be quiet. Too many teams that sucked this year had been expected to suck...

    Around the NFL: News and Rumors

    No surprise. We would never stand in the way of a member of the staff getting promoted elsewhere. Harbaugh has said this many times before

    Around the NFL: News and Rumors

    Meyer to Cowboys ... that seems like the kind of splash play Jerruh is going to want to pull off. I'd be surprised of either of our coordinators got a look from them. They don't fit the Jerruh profile ... way too meat and potatoes. Too much substance, not enough flash.

    Stanley should be absolutely no issue. I'd be surprised if he shows up on the injury report at all. Ingram ... we still aren't sure what his status will be. I think there is little doubt he will play, but not sure if he's going to be 100%. Not all calf strains are equal and they gave a pretty...

    Wink Martindale and Greg Roman

    You'd think our guys would steer clear of the dumpster fire in Cleveland. As Wink said, dream job ... only going to a place where I have a great chance of developing a "winning culture". Browns <> Winning Culture.
