  1. Eric Olson gives probably us a shout-out on Twitter for our Tyler Moore thread and all its comments. He didn't mention that half of those comments were ponies.

      I tweeted to Olson asking him if that was a quote from Bo or Olson's own interpretation of Bo's stance, but he never replied to me. I'd love to see that come out as a quote in an article, but even the tweet itself is gone.

      You keep that weather over there. We've had enough days over 100 in Nebraska, and this cool spell is perfect. We don't want your crazy hot weather here.

      Hagg was a bit like the Roy Helu of defense. An unassuming player who quietly went about his business. And was more talented than most people realized.

      its more about gameplans, they all have talent in the secondary. its a passing league now and everyone trying to rush the passer.

      I think 3 of those teams were Prolific Offense, and the Giants were Outstanding Pass Rush. Not *too* sure, just general impressions.

      Yeah I don't get it. They probably need depth there, but I would think putting guys around Griffin would be their main concern.

      I've been a naughty coach. Very, very naughty. And the rules are the rules. Annnnnnd we needed a prize for the Spring Game contest and we're out of t-shirts, so that may have something to do with it. too.

      He left the Jets, not the other way around! And the Jets are a mess right now. I think Rex's seat (and their OC) is getting pretty warm and that is a big factor in why he left.

       

      Look, few of us know much about how an OL works or how Callahan works with OLs -- so reputation, from a wide variety of places, is what I'm basing my opinion on. Your dislike of Callahan seems to be what you are basing yours on ;)

    3. zoogs

      zoogs

      Yeah, he will need good players, too, and I have no idea if you guys have that or not. So no guarantee that he will turn the play of the line around. I just think that you should feel solid about who you have coaching whoever those guys are, as opposed to some other schmoe they could have gotten.

    4. The Dude

      The Dude

      A big part of the reason the Jets are a mess is because their offensive line was abysmal after Callahan had his hands on it for a few years. Some story wherever he goes, really. If you don't want to fault him fine, but it's the truth.

       

      I was perfectly content with him lending his hand in wrecking the Jets. I'd rather have some random schmoe than a guy who is almost certainly going to fail, like history dictates.

      It's going to get cold here, though. Today's high was only like 64 degrees. Tomorrow is supposed to top out in the 50s. It's like another Ice Age.

      There's an article on rivals about him, but he doesn't show up on the commit list.

      Probably a walk-on, but probably would not show up regardless. He doesn't have a Rivals profile.

      I wish you'd told me that before I took my pants off. 'Cause that's what I do when I panic. Get straight NAKED.

  21. Wow, the Pats defended that 3rd & 4 option as perfectly as you can possibly ask for! Awesome job.

      The predictability of Denver's offense right now is painful. They won last week because the Steelers had no idea what they were going to run. Gross playcalling so far.

      Any D-Coordinator that calls for a three man rush ought to be fired at mid field!!

      Jefferson isn't a very good QB...yet they are still in the Natty Championship!? Defense gets you to championships. Here's to hoping NEB gets better on D next year.

      Taylor doesn't even make crappy mistakes like that..granted LSU is playing against one of the best defenses in the country...

      Bama has a great defense, but LSU simply isn't executing. Their option execution tonight has been absolutely horrendous.
