nitetrain8601 Posted September 4, 2009 Share Posted September 4, 2009 QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Sep 4, 2009 -> 12:47 PM) Why are teams firing there OCoords so early? It seems weird and puzzling. I guess the people hired will be running the same system but its odd. I don't get it either. Unless they're going from run n shoop to a Mike Martz offense, it doesn't make sense.

whitesoxbrian Posted September 4, 2009 Share Posted September 4, 2009 Among many, Rideau and Hood were released. Kevin Jones is out for the year. Who thought Kevin Jones of all people, such an iron man and all, would get hurt? /green x30 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bills offense was dreadfully bad. Like worse than nails on a chalkboard bad. That's why. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whitesoxfan101 Posted September 6, 2009 Share Posted September 6, 2009 QUOTE (knightni @ Sep 6, 2009 -> 10:33 AM) Wow. Patriots are getting a top 5 pick for a guy past his prime. The word "brilliance" isn't brilliant enough to describe their front office. 99 percent of the time, I would agree with you. But this is the Raiders they pantsed, they aren't the first team/people to pants the Raiders and they won't be the last. Yesterday was an interesting day for the NFL as it was cutdown day. The only Bears move I didn't like was keeping Rashied Davis over Brandon Rideau, although I said the same thing last year and obviously they weren't going to cut Davis after having his most productive receiving season in 2008. Nate Vasher should be thanking his lucky stars the Bears defensive backs suck or he might have been cut, and I'm curious who would have been cut had Jones not got hurt (Hunter Hillenmeyer maybe?)

Replace "linebacker" with "freak", and that statement could describe the vast majority of NFL players. Goddell should hire a discipline czar to deal with suspensions and stuff, that alone is a full time job in the NFL. Maybe Merriman will get suspended for a couple games, get former NIU great Larry English a couple of starts.

Balta1701 Posted September 6, 2009 Share Posted September 6, 2009 Fired OC Schonert rips in to Jauron. The Buffalo Bills remain a team in turmoil as former offensive coordinator Turk Schonert told a Buffalo television station Friday afternoon he was fired because the Bills' offense "wasn't simple enough" for coach Dick Jauron. "He wants a 'Pop Warner' offense," Schonert said in a phone interview with WIVB. "He limited me in formations, and limited me in plays. He's been on my back all offseason."

daa84 Posted September 6, 2009 Share Posted September 6, 2009 My God Al Davis is a moron....though I often understand that picks in the top 5 aren't as valuable as they seem due to contractual demands...though with a team like the patriots and the NFL looking more and more like an uncapped league in the future, it doesn't really matter....

T R U Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 I guess im the only one who thinks the Patriots are dumbasses for trading Seymour for a 2011 1st round pick. The Patriots have already lost a bunch of people off their defense this offseason now they trade away a pro bowl DE. They are a team that was already in position to contend for the Super Bowl why make that trade? And they dont know how Oakland is going to be in 2 years, its quite possible they lose out on a good pick now for a later pick in a couple seasons. Of course, I don't know if that's all Oakland would give them and refused this one. Either way, its a little puzzling as to why they make this move.
