2015-2016 NFL Thread

Unbelievable missed call by the refs on that Calvin Johnson. You can't intentionally bat the ball through the endzone so the Lions should have still had the ball. -

QUOTE (fathom @ Oct 5, 2015 -> 06:18 PM) He could name his job if he went back to college. I'm assuming he means that NFL teams may stay away from college coaches rather than colleges will stay away from Chip Kelly. -

QUOTE (fathom @ Oct 4, 2015 -> 03:15 PM) Yep, they also ran the ball way too much. Heck of a kick by Gould The third down play on their last drive was pathetic. The Bears were selling out on the run and that would have been a great chance to attack and go for the TD. With how good modern kickers are and how bad the Raiders' defense is playing for a FG and a 1 pt lead is laughably stupid. -

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Oct 4, 2015 -> 03:13 PM) Clausen is just terrible. Cutler shows flashes here and there but he'll make bonehead decisions once in a while. Sadly, this was one of his "shows flashes" drives. It helps that the Raiders' defense is f***ing horrible. -

And that is why Raiders playing for a FG on prior drive was so dumb. Coaches really don't understand game strategy. -

QUOTE (fathom @ Oct 3, 2015 -> 10:45 PM) Didn't like a long FG into the wind?? That and the 3rd down play call was laughably bad. Delayed QB run on 3rd and 1? GTFO. -

f***ing pathetic by Clemson. It never ceases to amaze me how stupid coaches are. It really is mind blowing. -

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Oct 3, 2015 -> 10:31 PM) Notre Dame just pulled a Clemson @ Clemson. But still 2 minutes left for Clemson to return the favor Clemson's coaches deserve a loss with how awful and conservative their play calling has been in the 4th quarter. -

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Oct 3, 2015 -> 06:49 PM) Mike Ripley should be fired after 1 year, ha. He's terrible. I didn't have a huge issue with Nebraska firing Pelini but if you are going to fire a good but not great coach you better have someone a hell of a lot better in mind than Mike Riley. -

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Oct 3, 2015 -> 05:12 PM) Illinois fan complaining about the refs...shocker. Seriously though, yeah, miss counting the downs resulting n automatic Illinois turnover is legit the worst call I've seen. The thing is I think it was actually 4th and inches. Either that or Illinois had to go 11 yards for a first down and chains where in the wrong spot and Illinois really got the first down so either way the refs completely f***ed up. That crew shouldn't be allowed to work another game this year. -

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Sep 30, 2015 -> 04:40 PM) Because thats not why Rodgers fell. Goff is a system QB, Rodgers played with arguably one of the best 1-2 RB punches in recent history. The knock on him was that he wasnt enough of the offense. The bigger knock on Rodgers was that every Tedford QB that had been drafted in the first round previously was a bust. Trent Dilfer, Akili Smith, David Carr, Joey Harrington, and Kyle Boller all sucked. He absolutely was viewed as a system guy. -

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Sep 29, 2015 -> 12:15 PM) I know this is laced with sarcasm, but I wish there was a way to put a guy like Aaron Rodgers or Tom Brady behind the Bears offensive line and see how good they really are. Aaron Rodgers has played behind some terrible offensive lines and he has always been amazing. -
QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Sep 28, 2015 -> 01:45 PM) I'll play optimistic for now and think they have a chance too...but it takes Hoiberg winning coach of the year? Removing injuries from the equation because the Bulls have just as many potential issues on that front as the other contenders, what makes you think the Bulls could beat the Cavs, Spurs or Warriors in a series?

QUOTE (BrianAnderson @ Sep 17, 2015 -> 10:31 AM) I mean, Abreu can't be that bad at 3B if the Sox brought it up to the media earlier in the year. It would make this team more versatile for sure. Have him start 100 games at 3B, 30 at DH, 20 at 1B. Have Saladino start 60 at 3B. Yes, he really can. Abreu is a bad defensive 1b. He would likely be by far and away the worst defensive 3b in baseball if you played him there.

Sox have tried to sign Samardzija to a long term deal
whitesoxfan99 replied to Sockin's topic in Pale Hose Talk
QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Sep 17, 2015 -> 09:30 AM) Seems pretty weird, unless they were trying to prepare him for the inevitable drop in velocity he will face down the road. Whatever it is, it obviously has been a colossal failure. I would love to know the thought process behind it. This doesn't excuse Samardzija's terrible pitching this year but I found this really odd and Cooper probably deserve a good amount of blame for just how bad Samardzjia has been. -

whitesoxfan99 replied to Sockin's topic in Pale Hose Talk
QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Sep 17, 2015 -> 09:13 AM) His k-rate is down, but about 1 per 9 innings, so not gigantic. His velocity is pretty much the same, so I think the k-rate being down is more of an indication of bad location and/or pitch selection than declining skill. For some reason, he still is a 2.3 WAR pitcher this season. He will get paid, but not as much as he turned down from the Cubs. He is also throwing way more cutters this year and way less 2 seam fastballs. I'm not really sure why the Sox decided to change his pitching style so much or why they haven't tried to have him go back to what was successful for him last year but I wonder if that has played a role in his struggles as well. -

QUOTE (Brian @ Sep 17, 2015 -> 04:49 AM) I've never seen him but I love Charlie Moore's game and Illini should still go after him hard. My understanding is that Moore still has an offer and they will continue to go hard after him. -

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Sep 8, 2015 -> 03:49 PM) Agreed. And I think chances our we have a new ad come april. Hell have no reason to be kept around. Yep, crazy that we could be cleaning out the main 3 job positions in the athletic department twice in 5 years and that all 6 firings would be completely deserved (well I guess Guenther wasn't actually fired) and in the case of Beckman, Zook, Weber and Guenther I would argue that all of them being fired/leaving was well overdue. Really sad state of affairs for Illinois athletics.
