NFL 2023

One thing I've noticed is the number of really young looking head coaches in both the NFL and top college teams.

How long has this trend been going on?

Seems like it's somewhat hard to really gauge the quality of a coach when they've moved up so fast. I know there are several who weren't nearly as good as their reputation, I can't help wondering how many know how to imitate their mentors but like any imitation aren't nearly as good as the real geniuses. It's one thing to do the same things, but if you don't really understand the foundation that knowledge is based upon, you can't make the adjustments to any flaws in the schemes as the game continues to evolve.

Meh. The trend exists all over. Coaching is no different. How many CEO's are <50. As groups of people chase shiny things, less qualified old people exist to fill the roles. Then someone catches fire with some slightly younger person, the media goes ballistic because shiny object and its a copy cat league. Also, don't forget about the garbage teams that are just grasping at straws. They don't care about 3,5,7 years down the road. Just insert a shiny object and keep it moving. Tickets/beers are sold and the results continue.
 
+1, it was super cool to see how stoked he was. Might be getting a little fine for whatever that motherfucker talk was into the camera though lol. That catch to win the game was awesome, like one inch difference and it's not happening.
 
Somebody likes the Seahawks, their 3 game series was Thursday, Sunday (10 days recovery), Monday (8 day recovery).

Is that how it usually goes or were they lucky?

AWS is used to set the schedule, Amazon is based in Seattle, Bezos is behind anything remotely advantageous to PNW teams since Paul Allen kicked it and Bill and Melinda divorced, so yeah, you could be on to something!!! ;) :laughing


(But, schedules often get strange as they add Saturday games at the end of the season.)

A bit of luck perhaps. So now fucking Dallas is first place in Division.

Being a Giants Fan is like trying to run a kids Toy Shop in Mos Eisly.

I don't know if that is totally accurate. Prior to the unending horrors of the Andy Reid era, the Eagles were known for just not being very good and when they put together a decent team, falling apart at the last minute. Eagles were usually very happy to be 4-12, as long as the beer kept flowing and those 4 were all Giants and Cowgirls.
 
The SeaCawks did the 9ers a favor.

It was nice to see Lock feeling good about his NFL life. A Raven's win puts us in a really good spot. Plus something to do on Xmas.

Oh c'mon, you have to know better than that.... winning spoils fans. :laughing
 
Enjoyed Eagles loss immensely. Never thought I’d root for that Washington state team but hey, the wound is more fresh from NFC Championship game. And, I remain anxious that the same thing might happen, no matter who the opponent. But that’s the game we watch and enjoy.

If I turn on the game on Christmas I'd be shot if there were a gun in the house. :laughing

There are a lot of knives though.

Maybe hide the knives. :laughing

Please do not confuse Philadelphia sports people with fans or Humans.

They are evil helldemons bent only on creating suffering and misery in the world. They do not understand the value system that Humans have.
