Rodgers is the coach now.

Saleh was a clown show as HC. Nothing wrong with being an elite DC. Not every one is cut out for head coach. He clearly wasn’t.
If Aaron Glenn gets a HC job, throw a pile of money at him to come home as Lions DC

I PRAY someone is dumb enough to hire Aaron Glenn and take him off the Lions hands. And yea if that happens Saleh would be a home run DC hire. Was great as San Fran’s DC and Jets have had awesome defenses under him. It’s the whole managing the entire roster and hiring competent OC and offensive staff that he was shit at. Not everyone can do that. As just a DC and play caller? That’d be a huge upgrade over Glenn if Lions could pull that off somehow.

In the 1985 divisional-round playoff, LA Raiders linebacker Matt Millen punched New England Patriots GM Patrick Sullivan after the Patriots' 27-20 upset win. The altercation was reportedly sparked by Sullivan's trash talking about Raiders player Howie Long during the game.

Kirk Cousins threw for 500+ yards last week, and Sam Darnold won NFC Offensive Player of the Month for September.

Imagine how good the Vikings and Falcons might be if they had used their top 10 picks on additional talent to surround those dudes with, rather than backup QBs

Vikings had to unload Cousins salary

getting a deal with Darnold and able to spend those $$$ to put talent around him and more so on the defense

The defense has been a amazing.  I just mean, if they had known what they had with Darnold, maybe take an OL or another defensive piece with that 1st round pick.  Certainly Atlanta should have

Falcons taking Penix in the top 10 was stupid because: Penix has a long injury history and is already like 25 or 26 AND oh yeah they signed Kirk Cousins to be their QB to a huge stupid fat fully guaranteed $200 million contract. They can't move on from Kirk or they are in salary cap hell. They're stuck with him for 3-4 years and what Penix will be nearly 30 by the time he actually gets to play? Dumb. 

Vikings taking McCarthy was not. They needed a QB. Period. Sam Darnold was a massive bust and failure in the NFL before these last 4 or 5 games. And....it's 4 or 5 games....everyone needs to relax. The old suck ass Sam Darnold we know and love still might be in there somewhere. JJ was looking great in the pre-season until he got injured. It happens. Sitting a year actually is the best thing a young QB in the NFL can do. Starting them right away is what breaks 90%+ of them.

I wasn't too high on McCarthy in the draft but if Darnold balls out the whole season then its a great pick because it gives the Vikings leverage.

Without leverage the Vikings would be paying an extra 50-75M.

Also if Darnold is your guy, I was yes not high on McCarthy but he's better than the entire 2025 crop and could fetch a No1 and a No.3 after you sign Darnold.

Falcons doing one of those moves is perfectly fine. Doing both of those is seven shades of flagrant stupidity.

Michael Lombardi has only needed to produce 1 segment of original podcast material a week since the draft. The rest of the show has been fragging the Falcons and the Jets.
