This is Adam Gase's last year in Miami. And hopefully Ryan Tannihill's last year too. The experiment failed. Where we go from here, who knows?

I'll bet if you got a real franchise QB (and some weapons,) your opinion of Adam Gase would change.

[Vic2012]

We'll see. Anything less than 9 And 7 this year will warrant his dismissal.

Coaching is so much easier when you have players to coach.

Yeah, it's kinda hard to show what an artist you are when all you've got to work with is a pile of mud.

The Steelers apparently used a deflated football last night..

It isn't an issue unless the Patriots did it.

Ain't that the truth. When the Patriots do that it's like they are ax murderers and child molesters, and people lose their minds.

Obviously, Steeler Qbs have such immense grip strength that they forced the air out of the fully inflated footballs!

[Facelift]

Yeah, that was ridiculous. It's going to fundamentally change the game. Think we'll see a team score 100 points?

This thing needs to be nipped in the bud.

Give them guaranteed contracts, and dial back the rules to let them kill each other.

In the playoffs.

did those swag desperate equipment handlers that got fired ever write a book detailing how Brady made them do it?

Nobody remembers Ten Cent Beer Night?!? It's even the same frickin' city!

Let's see Tanny finishes a drive without settling for three.

[Vic2012]

Jeezuz, even with a 15 yard penalty against the defense, we get inside the 20 and we................settle for three.

All because Tanny couldn't connect with the receiver in stride. He throws it BEHIND the receiver. So the receiver has to slow down and contort his body to catch the fucking ball. Tannihill is not a good QB. I've been saying it for 3 years. He does not put the ball in FRONT of the receiver. He sucks.

The Browns have always had some of the plainest nondescript football uniforms ever, but these things I'm seeing tnite have moved into downright hideous territory. The "orange" of the helmets and unis reminds me of the "burnt umber" Oldsmobile Ciera in Fargo...
Actually can't tell the difference between the Browns and Syracuse Orangemen.

[Vic2012]

Sorry guys, I should post this on the New Joke Thread. We just intercepted Cam, we're on the Panthers 9 yard line, we have a fresh set of downs.........and......

You guessed it. It's only preseason but I have not the slightest bit of hope for this pathetic team.

Everyone in Cleveland hates 'em too, including the owners wife. They're required to keep them for 5 years when they make a change, so I think this year and next yet, but they've already promised to change them. They're fugly.

[Scott Bails]

The NFL really has no clue.

[NogbadTheBad]

You guys know this is preseason, right?

So you think the stripe is gonna make the uniform look that much better?

[NogbadTheBad]

So you think the stripe is gonna make the uniform look that much better?

Which team?

[moecurlythanu]

^^ I thought you were responding to our conversation.?!

[NogbadTheBad]

I was posting about Vic posting about the game.

[3LockBox]

How do you make a color combo like brown and orange look good on anything but candy corn

[Vic2012]

You guys know this is preseason, right?

Right, I mentioned that in my previous post. It's just that I see Tannihill doing the same things season after season. He can't hit a receiver in stride. I see the same pattern of moving the ball at will between the 20s, and then we spit, sputter, and throw up on ourselves. There is no reason to believe the team has improved. We're expecting a 6-10 season.

Buffalo Bills quarterback AJ McCarron suffered a hairline fracture to his right collarbone in Friday's preseason game. That sucks because they will probably find a decent quarterback to play their opening game against the Ravens.
