@Spurt - perhaps at some point they should have Don interview him!  Jerry wouldn't know what to say - he'd be a wreck!  LOL

On my end, I'm so sick to death of hearing about Sirianni and his behavior/yelling/kids at the press conference on WIP Philly Sports.  Gawd, just let it go!  I'm not happy with his behavior either but it's time to move on!  There are alot more things they can discuss about the Eagles!

Nick Chubb is suppose to return this week, so that will be a large advantage for the Browns. I expect them to run the offense through Chubb. The question is if Chubb will get a full workload or be lightly utilized as this is his first game back. 

The Bengals and Browns are practically tied in their past games with each other. It might be a close one. 

Anthony Richardson is projected to start, but they said that last week and he didn't play. I'll wait until closer to game time to determine who is QB starter.

That could be a Pay Per View Event Jerry VS Don...lol!

With all the drama going on with the Eagles, Jets, Chiefs, Browns, Cowboys etc.,with Dan Snyder gone, Washington fans are THRILLED that there's no drama...just "normal" everyday football stuff....it's like a breath of fresh air!!!

[PARedbird]

@Spurt -OMG, that is SO hilarious with that note to be excused from work!  How I'd lover to do that!  Good one 

I also cracked up time about the Pay Per View with Don and Jerry - yes for sure that would be a good one!   Don would really og at hime!  LOL  

I agree with you about your team.  It's about time things are calm for them and I wish them well going forward!

The Saints got blown out last night by the Broncos. That's five losses in a row. It might be finally getting to the point where the Saints' ownership decides to cut Dennis Allen loose. He's been one of the poorer head coaches in the league for a while now but the Saints have stuck with him. They may have finally reached the point where they realize he's not getting better and it's time to move on.

The Eagles have a few convenient injuries that have popped up to Eli Ricks and Byron Young. Both guys could be headed to IR to open up two roster spots for other guys eligible to come off of IR. Sydney Brown will likely be activated this week or next. They'll need a roster spot for him.

Dennis Allen might need to update his resume. The Saints have fallen since their first two victories. Rattler is a rookie, so there are growing pains, but what is the problem with the rest of the team? A coaching change could be in order. 

Jerry Jones admits that the Cowboys have problems, but he claims that McCarthy's job is safe. I have a feeling that Jones could change his mind about that if things don't improve.

I always thought that Dennis Allen was an odd choice for the Saint's head coaching job. (in 2022 he was promoted from DC to HC) Now TNF's NFL analyst, Richard Sherman questioned whether player's have stopped playing for him and are trying to get their coach fired.  They have lost several games in a row and Allen has cited the many injuries they are dealing with and in addition, with QB Carr out, they are now starting inexperienced QBs...It does seem like the end is near for Dennis Allen, he also threw one of his Assistant Coaches under the figurative bus for a first half blunder.....Fans were piling out of the stadium in disgust starting IN THE SECOND QUARTER and more continued their exodus in the 3rd quarter not a good sign for the franchise. And more bad news, it looks like another injury to a key player, Rashid Shaheed will not return until next season....So the Saints are a team to keep your eye on for changes ahead....Saint's owner, Gayle Benson, delegates the team's decisions to Executive Vice President and GM Mickey Loomis .....STAY TUNED

As for Jerry Jones ya never know with him, he might just keep McCarthy the head coach of the Cowboys just to spite the media who predicted Jones would fire their HC.....But those close to the Cowboys organization already labeled McCarthy a lame duck coach and scapegoat for this season and sensed Jerry has in fact decided to fire McCarthy after this year......Let's see if Jerry let's his ego get in the way of his GM duties....

Dennis Allen's record as head coach of the Raiders wasn't great (4-12, 4-12, then 0-4 before being fired.) He's shown me nothing as head coach of the Saints. Unless he has some serious blackmail material against the owners it's hard to see him keeping his job. He's been 7-10 and 9-8 with the Saints, but in the very weak NFC South. His rosters haven't been the greatest due to cap issues, but he's just not a guy who impresses me.

If JJ wanted to keep McCarthy he'd have signed him already. McCarthy's contract will expire at the end of the season and he'll be a free agent, and there will be a lot of teams looking for new head coaches. Do you want to get in a bidding war for the guy? 

JJ handicapped McCarthy a ton this year. Kid starters on the o-line. Limited depth. No true RB. He's certainly not helping McCarthy.

Pay attention NFL....the ratings for TNF dropped below 10 mill with the blowout Broncos/Saints game....and remember NFL fans are PAYING for this game.... What's funny though...the NFL game easily beat postseason baseball.. (Yankees/Guardians and Dodgers /Mets)....y'all know how much I "love" baseball
