Can't recall the author, but that article a few weeks' back about internal rumblings between Kraft/BB/Brady that naturally got thrown under the bus by a lot of Pats fans (not you Kieran)... perhaps it had some weight to it after all. It does all seem very strange, yeah. I wonder if it was a...

I've harped on about it before, but this is another reason why I dislike this rule about needing a team knocked out before coaches can sign elsewhere. Colts have been dicked about by McDaniels, likely lost out on their other considerations, and will be way behind others when it comes to...

He'll be cover for Masuaku I'd imagine. When Masuaku was in the line up at wingback Cresswell was playing well on the left of a back three. Cresswell won't lose his place.

Cardinals are almost at the point of a rebuild, I thought they kidded themselves they had a big chance in 2017. They'll have a new HC, a 35 year old now-slot-receiver Fitz, and their best player is coming off a pretty much entire missed season - Cousins would be daft to pitch up there for the...

Let's not pretend FFP is there to 'level the playing field'. It's there to allow the bigger clubs within each league to keep their status quo and prevent smaller clubs from 'overspending' to catch them. What was and still is styled as a way to prevent bigger clubs spending more, is actually...

Thankfully that's not going to happen. The Minnesota Miracle becomes the Minnesota Minor Footnote. :D McVay deserves the reg season HC of the Year, but surely if we're counting the post season Pederson has surpassed him. I didn't give them a chance without Wentz, but his design of plays around...

Actually at the point I think i want the Vikings to win the SB. What a world.

I wouldn't rule out him to do well. At the Texans it obv didnt help that the offense post-Watson was gash, losing 2 of their three best pass rushers for most of the season too. Not to mention the differing skills needed to be a HC. I seem to remember last season Vrabel having a lot of...

That was amazing. It was an awful muffed boneheaded missed tackle that allowed it, but for the spectacle alone that was something else. These sort of back and forth lead changes are what makes NFL so incredible to watch. I find it hard to see how fans can know a lot of the time, but there are...

Not surprised by only three games. Rumours are Spurs ground is behind schedule hence there being one game and none in late September too. Probably on paper, and a year ahead etc, the strongest slate of games theyve had tbh. 4 playoff teams ain't bad going.

Yeah I hadn't watched them much earlier in the season, and at the time openly wondered if the use of two legit RB1s was because both were playing great and/or Brees has taken a step back. The adjustment for their offense this season has been great to watch. Same for their defense, it's the best...

Did Stoke need to make a change? Probably, although at this stage of the season and the current spread of the league table, they could have easily recovered and finish midtable again. Did Hughes deliver on what he was asked to do? Probably, given he most of the time finished higher than Pulis...

Yeah that was pretty scary. Glad he's up and moving, although it just highlights that as much as you try to make the game safer, I don't think Fowler did much wrong - the game will never be safe.

Even in that scenario, you'd still want to draft a QB on top. In which case for a one year rental, I'd probably rather keep Bortles.

If I was the Jags, and regardless of what happens today, I'd sign him up to a contract with no guarantees past year one, and also then make a play for a QB in the draft. No other team is going to offer Bortles guarantees in multi years, so would envision staying in Florida would be his best...

I've not quite bought into the Panthers and I've always had a soft spot for the Saints - they got me into NFL with the SB win in 2009. Love the way Payton has changed that offense and adapted to Brees age, improved the defense, losing Cooks and gaining Kamara, and having two legit no1 running...

TT no longer GM either. Seismic changes afoot in Green Bay.

I don't mind it. On the flipside I found the whole 'delaying til your team knocked out' stuff farcical as it meant you potentially having to wait weeks for your preferred candidate to speak to you, allowing other teams to seal up their vacancies, only to find that the guy you waited for went...

Yeah I don't agree on Caldwell either, it's hardly a roster that screams as being better than their record under him. I liked sealing up Adams. Right now he's our best receiver and that he was the only one who made Hundley look effective rises his stock more. Have no doubt the cap will be fine...

All the more remarkable given during the season they were both cleaning the roster for 2018 and the midseason Peterman debacle. Capers almost certainly finally gone. A result of both our yearly bad passing defence (despite high picks, good players, money spent) and with the likes of Hayward...
