NFL overrides CBS request for protection of Chargers at Pittsburgh. SNF gets it. And subsequently flex the following week to Chicago for Rams at Bears.

thanks for the update...now, tell me again about the bars/restaurants at MSP airport, cause all I seem to do is run from terminal to terminal when I fly into there ;)

Isn't there a Rock Bottom bar/restaurant right near the connection of two terminals?

This is quite weird. I assume you saw a tweet I posted today, and felt the need to merge different social media platforms together? 

Lol wtf vball

Outside of maybe the Green Bay job, assuming McCarthy's fired, this is easily going to be the most desirable head coaching job in the league. The biggest downside is Haslam's involvement.

I honestly believe Haslam will stay out of it this time around.  He let Dorsey fire both Hue/Haley, so I am not sure why at this point he would meddle with the coaching decision.  Nothing would surprise me though.

I don’t think the GB job is attractive at all. Sure you get Rodgers, but everything that has come out about him is he’s a complete dick. And there is little talent on that team outside of a few players. Plus you are in a conference with the up and coming bears and a good Vikings team. 

I think there will be better HC gigs, Cleveland being one of them.  

Yeah, you guys might be right about GB. Outside of Rodgers, their roster is garbage. Even with that crappy roster the Browns had last year, I thought Cleveland had a better overall roster than GB and the only difference was that they had a QB to raise the level of play around them.

GB definitely has an old roster, and they don't have Dorsey on the staff (lololol).  I still think it's more attractive then the other openings (sans Browns) we will see this offseason. Having Rodgers locked up is a huge draw. 

I'd pump the brakes on the bears being up and coming though.  Go ahead and save this as takes that didn't age well, but I think we will see the Bears regress next year.  This season their schedule has been trash and they haven't beaten anyone good.  If they make the playoffs then next year they will be matched with better teams and they won't have a shitty AFC division (outside of the pats).

Yeah but they are smashing the bad teams. Which is what a good team does. Bears are good, not super bowl contenders good, but good. And that defense isn’t going away anytime soon.

They are definitely going to be more competitive going forward for the news couple of years, but nothing that should discourage a coach from taking the Packers position.  One solid draft and the Packers are right back into the thick of things in terms of SB contention. 

Also, if the Browns do end up turning this shit around, I am glad they are in the AFC.   The NFC is loaded and it doesn't look like that conference will be slowing down any time soon.  The AFC has quite a few aging QBs.

I am ok with this list.  If John Harbaugh gets fired, would you all be ok with the Browns giving him an interview?  

Love John Harbaugh, so yes. I think he complains too much, But I’m sure that’s okay when he’s your HC.

Have no issue with them interviewing him but don't want him hired. The candidate I'd want the least would be Josh McDaniels. Fuck that clown.

DOnt know how I feel about sending multiple first round picks away. OBJ would be nice, but wouldn’t those picks be better suited adding protection for Baker and help on defense? Idk

I just don't see Dorsey giving up two 1st's for him but I think they could go after him. The Cowboys dumbassery in that Amari Cooper trade has inflated OBJ's price tag.

He’s a special talent but not sure I’d bite on that....but would respect the Browns going for it though

In the random info department....was watching MLB Network and when they announced Christian Yelich as MVP he was surrounded by family and teammates. The MLB Network guys asked Yelich to introduce everyone there...Yelich is like...yeah here’s Ryan Braun, here’s Cain, my brother Sam, Baker Mayfield, my sister, Brent Suter.....

Harold Reynolds was like...did you say Baker Mayfield? Yelich said, yeah he’s just enjoying his off week

I want no part of Mike McCarthy on the browns. Terrible terrible in-game decision making.
