  • I wonder what happens with Minshew. Can see him flaming out ... or becoming next Fitzmagic type vagabond QB
    WHO CARES why it says paper jam when there is no paper jam?

    • This article is 3 years old so it is a little outdated. Very interesting though. I did not know of some of the relations:



      Branching out


      Mapping the roots, influences and origins of every active head coach

      Trickalicious - I don't think it is fair that the division rivals get to play the Lions twice. The Lions NEVER get to play the Lions, let alone twice.

        Where ever Erin ends up I'd love him to follow as his backup. The porn-stache memes alone would bring laughs and joy the world over

        • Even the master (Belichick) isn't for everybody.
          Bud Grant wasn't for everybody - shit gave the opponents heaters and his team none......
          Players in todays society would be filing lawsuits over that - players in that day just went out and kicked ass.
          Vikings only problem came when they had to play in 70 degree weather comes SB Sunday - in January - where in Minneapolis it was likely -5.

            • Exactly, Bud Grant, good grief.

              Belichick certainly isn't for everybody, the guy most responsible for their success got the fuck out of there when he got the chance and won a SB in Tampa. You can kind of get away with it in the NFL because the players have such little power to move teams and eighty percent of the league is run by these little tyrants with messiah complexes. It's why we see these failures among the Belichick disciples, nearly everyone of them learn the wrong lesson, they think being a total dick to the players is the secret sauce.

              Sports are littered with these coaches with god complexes who are convinced their hard ass approach is the reason for the success. Most of the time they are fooled by randomness. Everybody is a hero in their own story.

                In the Brady era, only 3 times did they not have at least a top 10 defense. They never won a SB when they didn't.
                Brady, as many titles as he had - he was the straw that stirred the drink - and the drink was made to perfection.
                Shit, they went 7-9 without Brady (and with a league high COVID opt-out).
                One could argue that might very well be one of Belichek's finest accomplishments from a W/L perspective. Lions fans would have looked at what NE went through last year and said 2-14, easy......

                • Belichick F’ed up a perfect situation. That dude needs to change some of his ways before it’s too late. Yes he’s one of the best of all time but he needs to make a few changes. Even hard ass Scotty Bowman knew when to let the players be human from time to time.

                  You're not only an amazingly beautiful man, but you're the greatest football mind to ever exist. <-- Jeffy Shittypants actually posted this. I knew he was in love with me.

                    It's not just sports. Narcissisms are more prevalent then COVID. The VP where I work is generally a tool and we're having a hard time getting people because his reputation scares people off.

                      Well, he did spend over $117,540,000 in FA this off season. That is quite a change for BB.

                      But yeah, D!cks can basically die slow and GTH.

                      • Then thing about Belichick is he is a football coach lifer who has been grinding on football since about age 8 with his master NFL scout father. He is a grinder and it manifests itself with gameplans and shrewd talent evaluation. Most of these coaches say they work 70 hour weeks but most of them is talk. All of these Belichick disciples are copying the hard ass approach thinking that is thse secret sauce. That is more annoying side effect than secret sauce.

                        Matt Patricia and Bob Quinn brought the annoying side effect without the other shit. By most accounts they were miserable to work for. That's OK if you are finding diamonds in the rough and create amazing gameplans. Those guys main strategy was signing ex Pats players and a weird defensive strategy that put their corners on an island the most in the NFL even though the corners were lacking or green.

                          The ironic thing about Bill Belichick is that he himself came from the Bill Parcells coaching tree, but Parcells himself never won anything of note whenever Belichick wasn't his defensive coordinator.

                          • It's much easier to tell stories of the hard ass coaches of yesteryear who made the team win than the low key coach who also wins.

                            • Potential bad foot injury for Wentz. That dude is trash. I can’t believe he was Indy’s plan at QB.

                                Ballard is kind of weird to me. He puts a really good team together then his Achilles heel is QBs. Every GM has a blind spot. That position(s) he just can't see the talent in and is always a hamstring. Ballard wants a QB, but he doesn't want to give up a lot of draft capitol or cap. They're like the reverse Lions in that regard.
