    Whoa, that's awesome. That's a really hard market to break into between its narrowness and the proliferation of ex-athletes and pseudo-celebrities further saturating it.

    "Columnist fusses like a baby" had me lolling hard

    Jalen Ramsey is the GOAT

    If the Jags go 0-4 we need to fire Bradley and put Doug Marrone in HC at the bye week. Maybe with Doug we can actually pick up 6 wins which would probably be promising compared to what Bradley can bring us. We have the talent, we also have an awful HC who is holding us down.

    Wow, Chip fucking destroyed him :crylaugh:

    I'm officially a Chip Kelly fan-- I admittedly was somewhat partial to him before for being a march-to-your-own-drum type of guy. What a Belichickian serving that was, though.

    Anyways, that journalist should be embarrassed. You're a sports journalist and you're saying that athletes shouldn't be allowed to speak on issues that aren't their games. Follow that to its logical conclusion and you'd be out of a job in a hurry, dick bag.

    This QB has an awfully slow release. He took a real wind up on that 5 yard throw.

    Strange to see since Brady and especially Garoppolo have lightning quick releases.

    You have Blount and you throw a fade with your 3rd string QB on 3rd and 1?

    That's just dumb.

    -Tyler Ervin has got to be cut or at least benched forever. He's god awful. Charles James didn't exactly help either. We easily have the worst special teams in the league and we're ruining the end of Shane Lechler's career.

    -I saw more aggression at the Hatsune Miku concert this year than I did from the Texans defense last night. I expected Watt to be neutralized per New England's game plan but everyone else who HAD the opportunity to make tackles constantly missed them and it was humiliating to watch.

    -Please come back Duane Brown. Please come back Nick Martin.

    -Will Fuller is still my lord and savior but he needs to learn to catch.

    -Osweiler is playing way too safe down 27-0 but I don't know who to put that on, him or our coaches. I still have faith in him to improve and am not panicking about him being our QB at all.

    -Speaking of coaches, Godsey has GOT to go as OC/playcaller. I'm sick of hearing about how unbelievably intricate our offense is yet still not being able to beat the good teams in the NFL. We have so much talent on the offensive side and none of it is being properly utilized. It felt like we had an entirely different playbook going into this game and none of the plays are good. It's tough to stomach constantly watching players like Jaelen Strong and Will Fuller used in the completely wrong situations for their play styles and having to lean on Hopkins 100% of the time because he's the only one we don't know how to misuse. If our offense is so fucking complicated, get results or change it. Roshan was right about how our offense looked in the Chiefs game, I was willing to overlook it because the Chiefs have a good defense but now I have to bite the bullet and admit he was completely right.

    I have more thoughts but I'll leave it at that for now. Overall we sucked. Belichick is a great coach and playing against him is hard, but we had a lot of opportunities to beat him and took zero of them. When we don't touch the ball in the second half for 10 minutes, something's wrong. When we fumble TWICE on punt returns and don't recover, something's wrong. When we miss tackles on surrounded QBs/RBs, something is absolutely wrong. I'm not going to completely panic unless next week ends up just as bad and none of these issues get fixed.

    Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to think of more ways I can combine my love for football with Hatsune Miku references.

    Pats fan checking in. Last night was a good night. Hope everyone is ready for when Gronk / Brady / Hightower / Lewis (?) are fully back, but for now we're on to Buffalo.

    You could call it butt of the afc, people looking for the kfc podcast would press play not realizing you're gonna be rambling about Blaine bottles and Brock cocksweiler.

    That sounds about right. He can talk about Ramsey's hof ceremony and you can talk about Rick smiths inability to use a stapler. I'm excited.

    I'll be surprised if he's not cut by noon. He'll be claimed by the pats and become a hof instantly, they've handled worse headcases before.
