Hey, do you have RCN? Think i'm dumping Comcast but need to make sure RCN is reliable enough.
It's been pretty reliable so far; I had some connection issues early on in my new building but apparently that was just connection issues in the building in my tier. Been pretty solid of late, no real complaints - no contract is nice.
Thanx
Do you hate me cut I hate STATS?
No, but I think Scott Linehan is more to blame at this point for our offense's shortcomings. STATSford has a cannon, yet we run all this dink and dime shit constantly.
On a scale of 1-10, how would you rate Gym as an NFL head coach?
Right now, I'd say somewhere between a 5 and 6 out of 10. That being said, unless he gets much better quickly, he'll hold the team back. His strengths are in his philosophies, statistics, and logical approach to each game.
However, he doesn't take it far enough. He needs to strengthen the team's discipline and have better backup options ready to bust out when his first game plan doesn't work. He needs better time management skills as well. The mismanagement of the last 53 seconds of the first half this week was brutal - that is where you need to try and go for the throat. Strengthen those three issues, and IMO you have an 8.5 out of 10 or some such, with the last missing points coming from lack of innovation, less-than-perfect player development, etc.
Sadly, he's looking awfully stubborn with his inability to recognize the fact that discipline is an issue, so I'm not sure about his ability to go further. Regarding the time management and lack of innovation, that is probably more Linehan - it would be interesting to see what Jim could do with another OC. I'm not whether he delegated the decision whether to settle with the lead or go for the throat at the half.
All in all, quite a bit of potential as a young coach, but needs to swallow his pride on a few key issues.
Solid. I'm still wrong, but I think I learned something from that post.

Disagree with where your favorite team is ranked in the WTFDetroit Power Rankings? Did something in a blog piss you off? Hey jerk, would it kill you to leave some positive feedback?
Yes.
Is there anything you'd like to say to all of the Terrelle Pryor DOUBTERS and HATERS?
No, I never expected (or, really, expect) him to amount to a good NFL quarterback. At best, I think he can be slightly below average.
PROVE ME WRONG T-REL
Dear Santa, I don't want much 4 Christmas, I just want the person reading this to be happy.
Friends are the fruit cake of life - some nutty, some soaked and some sweet, but mix them together and they're my friends. Send this to all your fruit cakes.
Lions...relevant next year? I don't think they will be, but this thread ain't about me.
It depends how they attack the offseason. A lot of the talent sticks around, we'll have nice draft picks to add to that and possibly one medium name FA.
Really, it depends on the new offense and whether the new coaching staff is successful in bringing Stafford to his potential. Time will tell. If that happens, we'll compete for the Norse and possibly more.
Where do you rank Stafford amongst current QBs in the league?
Let's put them in tiers. It's hard to rank between tiers because of different situations and teams.
First tier:
Rodgers
Brees
Manning
Brady
Next tier (near-elite performance):
Andrew Luck
Russell Wilson
Cam Newton
Philip Rivers (one or two bad seasons among a bunch of very good ones)
Eli Manning (super bowls)
Ben Roethlisberger (super bowls)
Joe Flacco (super bowls)
Next tier (promising talent, but jury is out):
Matthew Stafford
Tony Romo
Colin Kaepernick
Ryan Tannehill
Matt Ryan
RGIII
Too soon to tell / game managers:
Geno Smith
Nick Foles
EJ Manuel
Mike Glennon
Andy Dalton
Alex Smith
Probably crap:
Jake Locker / Ryan Fitzpatrick
Sam Bradford
Carson Palmer
Case Keenum
Matt McGloin
Scum:
Christian Ponder / Matt Cassel
Brandon Weeden / Jason Campbell
Chad Henne / Blaine Gabbert
Terrelle Pryor
So, somewhere between 12th - 17th right now.
Cam Newton?
Fugg! Knew I'd forget someone.
Close to elite. I'll edit.
Hey bro, where would you rank CONNOR COOK?
He gets his own tier, right?
So is Louis an actual person or is he your "The Boy"?
Ha. Actually went to kindergarten with Louis! We go way back
HATE Louis.
What's Deandre Levy's contract situaish?
Did u finAlly fire louis?
HATE Louis.
DrRay11,

Ha!
Kelsey?
Not Kelsey! I don't know if I ever spoke of this one before. I have worked with her for a few years
Congrats, Doc.
