NFL 2008-09 Season

How about Lewis from Cincy? I think that team has some talent but they are terrible as a team. Plus, all of the previous off the field issues they have had. He needs to go away.

He might stay.maybe.I don't get Marvin Lewis.He creates this great Defense in Baltimore yet he can't get the bengals defense together.I remember before he came to the bengals they were a joke and he turned things around quick in a positive way but they are right back to being a joke of a team again.Lack of discipline.Lack of control over his team.

How about Mike Shannahan? What a collapse by the Broncos! And losses to the Raiders, Bills and Chiefs.

this might not happen because Mike is good friends with the GM and he is well liked in Denver but I believe it's time for a change with the broncos. I like what you said HDMM about Mike coming to the Browns.That would be great but unlikely.

OT: Maybe someone from Boston can answer this for me. Why is it when LeBron wears a Yankees hat, it's all over SportsCenter, yet when Tom Brady wears a Yankee hat, no one cares?! You would think it would actually be worse, considering Boston and NY are rivals and all.....

Because there has NEVER, EVER been a small hint of Brady even considering going to NY.....LeBron seems the flame the rumors himself by being secretive about everything one minute....and talking about it the next.....

11. I really wish the Lions played the Chiefs this year. While everyone piles on the Lions and deservingly so, the Chiefs have been the worse team in the last 2 years. In '07, the Chiefs had 4 wins. In '08 they had 2. Hell, at least the Lions had 7 wins last year, more than the Chiefs had been able to compile in both seasons.

12. So now that the Jets season is over, when does all of the over-saturated Favre/retirement talk begin?

The Chiefs were horrible, but I'd take a look at their win/loss differential under Tyler Thigpen and compare it to the Lions, something like 7-8 games decided by less than a TD and they came out on top in just 1 of them. Both losses to the Chargers by just a point. Team could have done a lot this year with a better D in a weak division.

Lions were also -9 in turnover diff with the Chiefs at +5.

All that being, said, we'd have lost to the Lions np (I was there to see them give San Diego their only win what seems like forever ago).

Just clad King Carl is gone, his 5 year plan a failure after 20 years.

The spread wont work forever, we'll get rid of it, and Larry Johnson, meaning we'll also lose Gonzales who deserves a winning team.

Probably a Belicheat ruse. We'll know it's not if Matt Cassell is still a Patriot next fall.

 

[SabresRule]

Talk about your historic NFL bookends!

 

[meStevo]

Ya, Peter King's sources say the opposite, that he's ahead of schedule.

 

[cybok0]

Are you serious? How could any human being actually like this guy?

Oh, that's right. You're not human. You're Yinzer.

OK...that's how you want it.

Remember Joey has a Superbowl ring with the Steelers, he was the backbone of that defense...which by the way helped the Steelers win there fifth Superbowl. Joey never gave up while playing, he is one of the best LBs in football.

And what does the Clowns have? A fat man who is suppose to be the savor of your pathetic football team...they didn't do s**t this year.

I told you at the beginning of the season your team went 10-6 because they had a pathetic record the year before, so the played a easier schedule, now they had a winning record, they had to play a harder schedule, and they blew it. You're a Jammie.

cybok hates the Browns like Sandra hates the Islanders.

"Daze Of Our Lions" Epilogue part 1

So maybe 0-32 is possible. In a move that bewilders every living (and dead) Lions fan, Ford announced that Tom Lewand would become team president and Matt Millen disciple Matt Mayhew would be the GM. (Here we go again with the "M's".)

When we needed a nuclear bomb, Ford throws a grenade and fires only Marinelli. Jimmy Valvano summed this type of move up perfectly some years ago:"When you fire the head coach, why would you replace him with one of his assistants? Do you think he had the answers all along, and wasn't telling anyone?"

That's pretty much what I think about hiring Mayhew. This guy has been here 7 years. He is part of the problem, not a solution. Mayhew's idea on how to fix things - "We have got to make better decisions."

You think so, Matt? My hair is getting grayer as I write this. These are the same idiots that brought us to 0-16. They have 5 picks of the first 85 in the coming draft, and Ford is going to trust those picks to same people who drafted Joey Harrington, Mike Williams, Charles Rogers, etc....

This is insanity.

Too bad. You could have had Andre Johnson.

 

[Paul Wozniak]

Among others. Cutler, Otah (last season), Shaun Merriweather, Julius Peppers, and the list goes on forever.

Here We Go Yinzers, Here We Go.

Uh oh!!!!!!!!!!

I am hating on Joey because he's a thug. Plain and simple. I don't care how many rings he has or how mediocre he is at tackling, I have ZERO respect for the guy because he's an idiot and I just can't get around that. Excuse me while I throw up in my mouth.

In the past, he defended Michael Vick and his dog ring, he defended Plaxico and carrying guns illegally, breeds dogs (pit bulls) that get loose and eat horses, gets into was fights at clubs in Vegas, made derogatory comments about Kellen Winslow, makes assassin "guarantees", he called out and berated ex-coach Cam Cameron, etc........

Just because Joey's an ex-Steeler doesn't mean you have to stick up for him. He's a very unsavory human being. Rooting for a guy like this doesn't make a lot of sense.

Broncos fire Mike Shanahan. You can't blame them after their collapse, but the guy did win 2 SB's for them.

 

[SabresRule]

Shanahan and Mangini are gone, yet Rams coach Jim Haslett and Chiefs coach Herman Edwards (who both went 2-14) are STILL employed?

that could change by next week. especially Haslett.

Herm will get fired by the new GM.

 

[Paul Wozniak]

I still look for Cinci, KC and Buffalo to make changes, and probably St. Louis.
