  1. The Third Man - (1950/dir. Carol Reed) - An early noir flick with Orson Welles and Joseph Cotten. A lot of people have Citizen Kane at the top of their “best all-time” lists, but I liked this film more. It still holds up. The photography and chase sequences around Vienna are some of the best ever filmed. A must see for cinephiles. Notorious - (1946/dir. Alfred Hitch****) - One of the best from the best. Amazing chemistry between Cary Grant and Ingrid Bergman. It gets better everytime I see it. I think one could argue that this is Hitch****’s best film, and while I would disagree, I think you could still make a convincing case. Another must see for cinephiles. These movies are FREE with ads on Tubi.
  2. So is this the “Jayden sucks!!!” “No he doesn’t!!!” thread? 😆 It’s all good, friends. We’re gonna draft Maye anyway. Cool convo though.
  3. Congrats to Quinn on assembling a solid staff. I have my preferences (like the rest of you degenerate idiots 😆), but I’m willing to see how things shake out. I’m most interested in how we attack our glaring roster weaknesses (QB/OL/ILB/EDGE) and how we go about getting some weaponry for our young QB. This is the most important offseason for us since Sega Genesis came out. If we can nail it, our rise from the ashes might be closer than we think.
  4. “What if red states start kicking Biden off the ballot” Then you over rule it because Biden didn’t engage in an insurrection. The Supreme Court is such a ****ing joke.
  5. The biggest problem with the air raid (in my opinion, as he runs it) is that almost all plays are from shotgun. Which makes it easier to diagnose run/pass and bring pressure. These offenses usually struggle in the red zone due to the lack of physicality (people hated Longo’s red zone offense at UNC and Ole Miss despite his overall numbers). Brian Robinson’s days here are probably over. I don’t see him fitting the new scheme so we can add RB to our laundry list of needs (I already had it on my list but further down than I do now 😆).
  6. I’ve got Caleb Williams chances of being the next Mahomes at zero percent. Mahomes is a unicorn. Also, I would’ve rather hired a Shanny tree system OC. It’s great that Maye/Howell have experience in Kingsbury’s offense. Only problem is his offense sucks.
  7. I don’t want to trade Allen/Payne/TMac. The players that we draft with those picks will not be as good as those guys. If we needed ammo to move up…I’d understand it more. But we don’t need to move anywhere.
  8. I don’t like the Kingsbury hire. Dude is meh personified. Feels kinda like a rag/tag, thrown together staff. Excited for the draft to see which way we go. I still don’t think we move for Caleb.
  9. I’m not saying that Kingsbury won’t work out here. It’s possible. But my question is why hasn’t anyone ever seen the “best of him” at any of his coaching jobs? He has underachieved everywhere. He seems like a whiteboard wizard that lacks certain attributes on game day.
  10. I consider all of these things when discussing Kingsbury. I watched the Cardinals play enough to see that their offense was consistently a hot mess. I don’t think that being obsessed over drawing up unique plays and coaching/teaching the details of said plays are one and the same. I think Kingsbury is maybe good at the former, but poor at the latter. Which is why his unit underachieved relative to expectations.
  11. This still doesn’t address that his offenses play sloppy and his lack of attention to detail. Kinda reminds me of Gruden in some ways (Gruden run game specifically) where they run a lot of different concepts but don’t really excel at any of them. Kingsbury is a shiny new toy without the shine.
  12. I don’t get the hype with Kingsbury. Is he a good offensive mind? Yes. But his units lack discipline. Penalties and lots of self inflicted wounds. The guy has done the least amount on the field to ever receive such high amounts of praise. I don’t understand it.
  13. Quinn was not my first choice (as most here also feel 😆), but I will judge him by his results on the field. If they hire a great OC and have a great offseason/draft I think this dog could eventually hunt. I didn’t care what Rivera said to his wife after games or what the sound byte de jour was, his results on the field were poor and that’s all that mattered. I don't give a **** if Quinn is a rah rah guy, or if he defers to his coordinators, or if he wears ****ing magic underwear to practice…his results on the field are all that matters. Different coaches have different styles. There is more than one way to skin a cat. Let’s hope the new brass got this one right. I think we will all feel a lot better about it if he hires a great OC. Fingers crossed.
  14. If we draft Drake and spend on FA this season and hire Kubiak as OC…8-9. Playoffs second season. If we hire Chip Kelly I give Dan Quinn two years tops.
  15. No way Peters asked Quinn who he wanted for OC…and Quinn said Chip Kelly. And then Peters said “You’re hired!” No way that happened.
