Pariah Posted January 9, 2023 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2023 I'm thinking Payton will end up in LA or Arizona. Although I can't imagine the Rams having a lot of draft capital to trade to the Saints for his services. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Man Posted January 9, 2023 Report Share Posted January 9, 2023 There's been some chatter that the Chargers might let Staley go. I'm not sure exactly why--the team did underperform all season with injuries to the WRs, but they still made the playoffs. But people just don't seem to like him. Anyway if that does happen, the Chargers are thought to be a highly valued HC gig due to their young but established quarterback and an overall favorable cap/draft pick situation.

Which also means the rebuilding issue is probably worse. It's a mild surprise, and to many a great disappointment, that McDaniels hasn't been fired yet. Elsewhere...Damar Hamlin was released from the ICU, and has returned home to Buffalo. If at all possible, then, I wouldn't be surprised if he and his parents are at the game Sunday, likely in the owner's box. Pariah 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slikmar Posted January 10, 2023 Report Share Posted January 10, 2023 My brother looked at Dallas vs Tampa and is hoping for a national disaster. Seriously, how do you root for either team to win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pariah Posted January 10, 2023 Author Report Share Posted January 10, 2023 If Dallas loses this weekend, it opens up Dan Quinn to interview for the Denver head coaching job earlier. ...nah, still not enough reason to root for Tom Brady.

With Hackett's firing, the Broncos have tied for most coaches fired since 2010. Six. With Cleveland. Next are Jacksonville and the Raiders at 5.

unclevlad Posted January 11, 2023 Report Share Posted January 11, 2023 Tua's ruled out for the game against the Bills. Doctors haven't cleared him yet; HC Mike McDaniel said that, and the fact that he hasn't played, led to the call. And for his sake, I'm glad. Lamar Jackson hasn't been...but as Adam Schein noted on his show, it's unlikely he'll help even if he plays. Not practicing, not playing in the last 5 weeks? OK, fine, he'll maybe make some plays, but ya gotta bet he'll have a couple disastrous ones too. Damar Hamlin is out of the hospital altogether now!! Doctors say he can continue his rehab at home. From ESPN: Quote Dr. Jamie Nadler, critical care physician and chief quality officer at Kaleida Health, which runs Buffalo General, and the care team lead for Hamlin, said in a statement: "We have completed a series of tests and evaluations, and in consultation with the team physicians, we are confident that Damar can be safely discharged to continue his rehabilitation at home and with the Bills." There is no statement about how long the rehab will take, or what long-term measures might be involved. EDIT: not sure if the lines have changed, but Bills are -13 vs. Fins, with Tua out and a, what, 4th stringer starting. With Jackson still not practicing, Bengals are -8.5. This one's trickier to me, in that they just played last week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Man Posted January 13, 2023 Report Share Posted January 13, 2023 Hearing some rumblings about Derek Carr possibly getting traded to the Jets. It’d be a good landing spot, that’s a complete team that just needs a. QB. Not sure about the coaching regime though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unclevlad Posted January 13, 2023 Report Share Posted January 13, 2023 The Athletic's comments about this round, by day: Saturday: compelling. Sunday: BORING!!! (Ravens and Dolphins have obvious, huge problems; the Giants have been unconvincing recently, in their opinion) Monday: groaner...the Cowboys do play down to their competition a fair bit. Gonna be another chili weekend for me anyway. Gets all the prep work done well in advance, just scoop out another bowl when I want, as I watch...remember, Sunday's the standard 3 slots, but Saturday is late slot and night game.

Pariah Posted January 13, 2023 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2023 Honestly, I'm not sure how bored I would have to be in order to watch the Cowboys versus Tom Brady in the playoffs. I'll probably just watch hockey instead. I won't even care who's playing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Logan D. Hurricanes Posted January 14, 2023 Report Share Posted January 14, 2023 Tonight is our big game. I'm not sure what to expect. The Jags humiliated the Chargers early on this season, but then we went on a losing streak. Including trading away that RB. We're better now, but so are the Chargers. LA is a 2.5 favorite. This is Trevor's first NFL playoff game. He's a college national champion; Herbert's a PAC 12 champion. TIL They're both 6'6". Pretty evenly matched. Should be an exciting game. GO JAGS!

Some props should be considered out of bounds...therefore, given their inability to judge "reasonable"...ALL props must be out of bounds.
