He should absolutely retire from the NFL, in every capacity. Let him spend the rest of his years living it up on Tinder, or wherever his dating scene happens of course...

He was a great coach. One of the best to ever do it (in my lifetime anyway).

Head coaching record (per Wikipedia):

Regular season: 302–165 (.647)
Postseason: 31–13 (.705)
Career: 333–178 (.652)

Why sully that kind of legacy with a couple more mediocre years that will undoubtedly lower these near-godlike statistics? Just disappointed fans, whoever they may be, "we shoulda had a better coach than this Brady-less, washed-up wannabe playboy so-and-so."

Anyway, hats off to Belichick, or Coach Masters, as they used to call him in Madden as he never granted Madden his likeness rights.  

@ChiBitCTy. On the Chargers fans, do they have some of them left supporting the team? I am only joking hehehe, however, the Chargers do not have a Stadium that they call their very own. Their real fans are in a city 1 hour away in San Diego.

In any case, this is a transcript about a conversation on Justin Herbert and should fantasy managers be worried about him. I reckon he might shock everyone. They will not win the conference but new coach argument implies that they will enter the playoff.

How do they expect defenders to tackle from now on, like really? I understand it can lead to some nasty injuries but that's part of the game, freak accidents happen. This is dumb.

edit;

and we have the gay xfl kickoff thing approved too...

It's amazing how lame the game can be sometimes.  In the early days of professional football the two leagues didn't have so many injuries.  Padding was minimal and the players wore leather helmets.  The gear they wear these is use more like weaponry than personal protective equipment.  The speed of the game has increased, but I think that's also a function of the more secure padding.

I often wonder what the game would look like if the league were to use Rugby style padding and helmets.

On the changes of certain rules for the new season, what teams does everyone speculate would become better as a consequence of these changes and for what type of players these teams presently have? Also, will these changes influence the NFL teams on drafts and playbook tactics or will it be considered minor changes?

If these changes are not minor, it appears the more favored NFL players might become smaller, less strong, but faster and more difficult to tackle.

I think any time that a player is traded that they always have teams that they wish they could have gone to, or be playing for, and often times that includes teams that are close to their hometowns or thier favorite teams growing up or whatever.  Derrick Henry knows that he's going to a very good team where he could play a very big role in potentially bringing them a championship, so I kind of doubt he's "upset" about it, but we shall see.

Good, he needs to sit for awhile and look in the mirror.

I have been disgusted with his hiring decisions and player choices the last few years and it was obvious he has drank his own koolaid and decided to rather admit he's made mistakes he continues to keep doubling down on bad players (which he is over paying massively) when he has better options.

Bet on the Chiefs. 

Man I really tried to give the whole UFL thing a go but the games are just at highly inconvenient times and without recognizing any of the players, I just haven't managed to get into it yet. To its credit, its a lot more like the NFL than I had imagined; none of that wacky XFL stuff. Just a few new rules to move the game along faster & reduce chances of injury. Still better than college tho, IMO.

It’s not competing with college, but it’s also not trying to. College is 18-22 year olds on avg. The UFL as far as I can tell is filled with 22-30+ aged former college players (not good enough to go to the NFL). College football is also INSANELY popular and that’s never going to change. Also the top college teams would WAX every UFL team with ease. All the major programs (Michigan, Alabama, USC, Notre Dame, LSU, OH St, Clemson etc) are all driven by future NFL players and stars far better than any UFL player. The UFL is focused on being an option when football (college and NFL) are on break.which is what they have to do as they can’t compete and have failed trying time and time again..so they don’t try to which is smart. I’m all for the UFL, but it’s def boring as hell to me. Have watched a few games so far and man..tough for me.

As for being “slaves” College football players on scholarship get tuition, room and board paid for as well as a stipend on top of that. Leaving college with no deep debt is a pretty nice head start in to the workforce. Also the connections made playing help many get jobs. However I agree that is not enough, thankfully there’s NIL now. The upcoming number 1 pick in the draft Caleb Williams (headed to my bears) made an estimated 10 million in NIL money, and I believe that’s over just a 2 year span. So at least they can get paid now. Step in the right direction. Also, no one is forcing them to play right.

"4 or 5 Years" is just him being diplomatic, they will be lucky to get 3 good years out of cousins before age takes him down and a few years behind a QB like cousins will give them a Franchise QB for the forseeable future so it looks like a great move to me.

All these tard coaches that run out a rookie QB from the draft are killing the qb's as well as the teams chances for years to come.

Greenbay does it right and the other teams need to learn from them rather than saying they keep getting "Lucky".
