The Tecmo Bowl offense is pretty unbeatable if you just have your guys zigzag all over the field , expertly eluding the defenders.

Is saying a bunch of racist and homophobic stuff in emails not grounds for firing? Like you can go 14-2 and get fired and I don’t think Marty had any grounds for suing the chargers. Genuinely curious, no idea about nfl coach contract law e: well Marty definitely did but not in like a legal sense…

LOL at anyone wanting to give Dan Quinn another head coaching try. Quinn had a functioning Matt Ryan and Julio Jones and spent his last three years doing the same thing that Smith did with Mariota, Ridder and Heinicke. Plus 28-3.

Highly doubt that it was only Gruden using the language. We only heard about him. I don't mean to sound like an apologist, but man got sacrificed to cover for Snyder. loving cameras in the stairwells for upskirts but Gruden goes down for saying racist poo poo. This all happening at the racist name team.

Might have missed it - have we heard anything about what the Raiders are doing yet? Antonio Pierce getting that Raiders HC job is probably the feel good storyline I'm most invested in, outside of where my Lions coordinators end up. The vibe fit there is off the scale. Do it, Davis.

The NOLA players hosed up and it’s okay to admit that. Otherwise Jameis wouldn’t have bothered even half-assing an apology. There is such a thing as non-verbal agreements, and the kneel is a non-verbal agreement that “we’re done here”. I’m sure this topic will come back around next season when a Center or QB gets blown up out of the victory formation. Then we’ll hear cries of “bUt tHE gAmE WAs ovEr!”

Nah, if zero shenanigans are allowed via victory formation then the league needs to just change the rules and automatically bleed the clock once the losing team can't mathematically prevent a kneel down ending Even better, ban the kneel down or any other sort of purposeful give up play, and force teams to run the ball if they want to end the game, so that a real play is actually happening and this scenario can't happen again Otherwise, accept that weird edge cases like this one are gonna tempt players or coaches to do something wacky The defenses should also gently caress with the victory formation if a situation allows it for any reason, who gives a poo poo about the sanctity of the dumbest loophole play in the game The337th fucked around with this message at 16:15 on Jan 9, 2024 |

As if running a normal play from kneel formation now means its ok to injure offensive players and its the offensive players faults. Is it now OK to intentionally injure players on a regular play? If you can't sit back and enjoy the sheer pettiness of that play, then you don't have a true rival in this sport and it means you aren't having as much fun as you could be having.

Both should be petty until the league mandates otherwise for this stupid fake play that people are clutching pearls over If the defense is so asleep on their feet that it's this incredible danger to them when something unexpected happens, then that sounds definitively too unsafe to justify the continuing existence of If it's just too rude then I guess the league better cook up an unsportsmanlike penalty for it Until it changes to the contrary, whining about a football play actually being a football play is incredibly stupid

Here's the thing about football: you can't just play passively as a lineman, either a play is all out or not, so both teams need to be on the same page about whether this play is 'real' or not because otherwise you get one side obliterating the other. The point of kneeling it out is to remove the need for linemen to risk injuring themselves on a pointless play. The best solution is probably to say that the coaches can agree to shake hands and end the game at any point after the 2 min warning and everyone can just go home instead.

It wouldn't have been a problem if Allen had actually let his players try to get Jamaal his one TD of the season. They ran it out of victory formation so Allen wouldn't realize what was happening and call a timeout. This is 100% on Dennis Allen in multiple ways.

It's only the leagues fault for this being how this dumb play works If it bothered you and you don't want to see it again, then it should be taken out of the hands of players needing to have the wisdom to not introduce a small increment of injury risk when they've just went through hours of physical violence already Counting on coaches to neither participate in, or even allow this to happen is also stupid when a coach just demonstrated the flaw in that plan The players ran an entirely legal play by all rules of the game and until that changes the people who maintain the rulebook only have themselves to blame E: gonna emphasize this again because it's so obvious, but gentleman's agreements for safety in the ridiculously violent contact sport is neglectfully reckless and stupid if safety is really what people want The337th fucked around with this message at 17:24 on Jan 9, 2024 |

It’s lame that so few coaches have been fired. Logan’s run this thing. Everyone over 40 is fired except Harbaugh and Payton. I want the head coaches of the league to be full of OCs who at one point stood next to McVay or Shanahan.
