There are going to be a lot of dead people on the Raiders roster next year:

Also feels like he just admitted to widespread tampering.

Gruden is once again confusing his personal cell phone with the Corona hotline.

Whoa, whoa, whoa!!  You mean it's ironic that the elderly man that can't have a mature relationship with a woman, and who spends an enormous amount of time watching and evaluating young fit men, is homophobic? 

Again....it doesn't take a trained psychologist to figure out the situation.  Just hope he figures it out, overcomes his insecurities, and is able to be happy.

Always interesting to see how hypocritical one can be (not to mention the LIES).

Not sure what exactly is 'hypocritical'.  Unless you are comparing my mocking you to your hatred of women and homosexuals.  If so......sure.?.?.

One thing social media has taught the world over the last 3 years is that if someone capitalizes 'lies' or 'fake' it 100% means they are exactly what they say they are not.

PM me if you want to discuss this further - no need to tax the mods more than their 6 figure income would dictate.

Unless, of course, you can't restrain from making hateful statements.

Peterman staying on average of 1 INT per 8 pass attempts.

Without a doubt, the worst starting QB in NFL history. What is really amazing is that they keep throwing him out there.

This is an NFL team that is making no attempt, not only to win a game, but making no attempt at even TRYING to win a game.

The Bills will be the poster boy for Kaeps collusion case. Only way it gets easier is if Trump had purchased the Bills instead of Pegula

I don't know how the Bucs beat the Saints in New Orleans.

Pats come out and put on a clinic first drive. Pack have 3rd and 15 at the 17 (aka in easy FG range even if you take a sack). Big Mac decides to throw the ball behind the line of scrimmage. Way to set the tone Big guy. Kicking field goals tonight is definitely going to win this game.

It was even worse than that.  It was 3rd and goal.  No way to get a touchdown on that play.  Pure concession of possible points.  What a dips hit.

Brady just makin' total fools outta Pack's secondairy, aina?

He's actually having a below average game.  Their running game is hurting the Pack far more than Brady.

One more reason Bellichek is the best.

I really hate him, but this is absolutely true.  No better coach in the NFL, maybe the best of all time.

(A slowed) Rodgers roll out on 3rd down with less than a minute left in the half? What in the world?

It's truly embarrassing.

That had to be a Rodgers call. I have a tough time complaining about McCarthy too much since I think Rodgers has a lot of freedom at the line.

[wadesworld]

Being a coach for the Pack has to be incredible. Maybe the best job security I've ever seen from a high level sports team. Zook will probably have a raise waiting for him tomorrow.

[Dish]

Through 3 quarters, I've been extremely impressed with the Pack tonight. I think New England has gotten too conservative on offense, but the Pack have almost no one left on the sidelines to play defense, and they're more than hanging tough.

One coach has imagination.

One coach is generic.

What, you don't find play action fake naked bootlegs with a hobbled QB to be imaginative?

As usual, a short handed packers defense can't get a stop when it counts. Another year of Aaron Rodgers wasted. McCarthy needs to go.

FIFY.

I don't know how the Bucs beat the Saints in New Orleans.

As I sat with Mrs. 82 at today's Panthers-Bucs game, gleefully watching our lads take a 35-7 lead in a practically perfect first half of football, I said the same thing.

But as I watched the Bucs move the ball nicely in the second half, I do see that they have a lot of offensive weapons. The score of that Bucs-Saints game was like 200-199. The Saints aren't a very good defensive team, and they probably didn't take the Bucs too seriously.

Looking forward to the 2 Panthers-Saints games in December. Although I really like the way the Panthers' offense is developing -- a lot of good, young skill players -- I do think the Saints are a better offensive team. But I think the Panthers are a much better defensive team, and I'm hoping that makes a difference.

Of course, my lads have a bunch of tough games before those, starting Thursday at Pittsburgh.
