My impression of AB over the years is that he is both unwell and a dick.  Allocating the motivations/causes for his behavior between those two traits is damn near impossible.  I hope he gets the help he needs to not be a danger to himself or others but I also don't need to see any more of him.

I agree.  He's not okay, but he has been a dickhead his entire life.

AB released a Rap record last night

If I were his agent I'd advise him not to quit his day job

LaFleur said three weeks off would seem like a long time off, perhaps too long, and his gut feeling Sunday night was that they'd play "at least a little bit" in Detroit.


Looks like Matt is taking my advice again..... 8-)

I literally laughed out loud when I read this.

Following the Giants' 29-3 loss to the Bears Sunday, New York's head coach Joe Judge spoke with reporters for over 10 minutes after being asked why fans should have faith that he can right the ship.

He promoted the franchise's culture and said players who are expected to become free agents have been in his office begging to return. He also said he gets calls twice a week from players who signed elsewhere for more money wishing they were still in New York.


He reminds me of someone...., I just can't recall who.

Interesting reports on Brown.

Apparently, he wasn't sure he was physically capable of playing this game, because of his ankle injury. Coaching staff made him suit up and play. Just before the incident, he had informed coaching staff that his ankle was not ok.

He was told to get back on the field and play anyway. When he insisted he wasn't ok, Arians kicked him off the team. Then the ordeal we all witnessed occurred.

Wondering what people think about that scenario. Was Brown actually in the wrong?

The reports I saw say that Arians told Brown he would be done for the day if he insisted he wasn't ok, not cut from the team.

Regardless, you can't justify that behavior, and I flat out refuse to give AB the benefit of the doubt here.

I will expand my worldview to believe that Arians is an out-of-touch dickhead and not absolve Antonio Brown for any of his behaviors

If true,  Arians is in the wrong but Brown still handled it poorly. I 100% believe that Arians is capable of that but I also 100% believe that Brown is capable of making that up

Lindy Infante was the last Packer to win Coach of the year. No Holmgren. No McCarthy. No LaFleur.

Yet, Matt Nagy won one because he inherited an elite defense. Isn't it time the Coach of the year is a guy who shows it year after year instead of guys having one lucky year?

Yes, I'm talking about Jason Garrett, Kevin Stefansky, Ron Rivera twice?

May have some legal issues. If there are physical or mental health issues, the attorneys have to be consulted and the dismissal must be done in accordance with the NFL's collective bargaining agreement and federal and state law.

Antonio Brown Instagram followers went up 100,000 after this incident. I guess the public likes train wrecks.  .

During an interview in Dan Patrick this morning, the NFL reporter (I don't remember the name, he was the last segment of the second hour) said the best strategy was to keep Brown on the team but inactive so no other NFC playoff teams pick him up via the waiver wire.

He could have just said "Dallas."

Honestly, the NFL should have suspended him for the remainder of the season for the COVID fraud. All of this could have been avoided.

Wouldn't be surprised if the NFL comes in with some kind of suspension for conduct to help alleviate the situation.

It'd be a slippery slope to start suspending players just because they committed a felony.

The Athletic is reporting that Jim Harbaugh may be looking to get back in the NFL, with the Raiders and Bears being the top possibilities.
Do the Raiders let go of Rich Bisaccia if he somehow get them into the playoffs?

Harbaugh's agent angling the Raiders & Bears to get another pay day at Michigan (after he took a pay cut).

Timing is everything, good for him.

I don't think he has an agent but yes, the timing is fortuitous.  I'll say this, this was probably as good as it'll get for Michigan or was their ceiling.  I think a lot has to go right for them to win it all.

Yeah, you're probably right about Michigan. Whatever he does, he's got leverage at Michigan, and it doesn't hurt that two NFL franchises he has ties to potentially have head coach openings.

I believe strongly the McCaskey's would 100% hire him. I'm not saying I'd agree with it, but I believe they would absolutely do it (Harbaugh knows it too).
