i know mcdaniels had a shitty time in denver. but if you brought in a GM and just let him coach i think he has good potential. he is young, has a good offensive mind. add perry fewell? (giants d coordinator) to that list. he has to get his opportunity here sooner or later. i think it will be a hot shot coordinator.

I'd rather have Jeff Daniels coach this team than Josh McDaniels.

7. Baltimore Ravens
(3-1)
Last week:
5

Ravens fans might've liked
to see something a little more convincing than a one-touchdown victory over the
Browns, but cut them some slack. It was a short week after an emotional Sunday
night game, and the Browns might not be the poor little weaklings you think they
are.

The Browns are the 2nd best 0-4 team out there!

So because we "played hard" were all of a sudden not a terrible football team? I don't buy that for one second. We're lousy...get that #1 pick babbyyyy.

It's too bad clowny from South Carolina isn't eligible for the draft this year. Dude is going to be a freak DE

I think you pick the best defensive player in the draft with your first pick, then do whatever needed to get the best wr in the draft.

smh....the guy has no business being in the NFL. He can't catch the ball, and he gets beat to the hole by Richardson all the time.

Yeah, he fit in here well. Of course, he left and hasn't been nearly as good.

I liked Marecic coming out of college, but has been a let down at FB. Maybe move him to back up MLB?

Marecic excels as a throwback, traditional isolation-lead blocker with the base strength, leg power and striking ability to stop defenders in their tracks and meet force with force
It's really too bad he almost never hits anyone then.

Maeric isn't fast enough to the hole and often misreads or misses the block entirely.
