Holy crap, Dolphins star cornerback Xavien Howard allegedly got FOUR women pregnant at the same time. Somewhere Shawn Kemp is clapping and saying "well played."

May be an image of 5 people, baby, beard and text that says 'Colts TE Kylen Granson organized an entire photoshoot after catching his first career touchdown in his third NFL season _granson18 after 3yrs of trying... it's finally here #firstcareertouchdown'

Guess he’s not good at covering that

Trevon Diggs tears ACL in practice today. Brutal hit for the Cowboys defense.

As if the Bears don't have it bad enough, the FBI supposedly raided one of their coaches homes and found "sensitive content?" WTF?

Nothing new.  But most diehards know it doesn't matter who OC is - that crapfest is the offense Tomlin wants to run.

Multiple OCs and multiple QBs....same offense they've been running for years.  Tomlin is the only commonality.

His stats in the middle were crazy…I know you can’t stand Tomlin have those stats really been there to that measure his whole tenure? There’s no way.

Oh, yeah.  People have been calling it the "U-shaped offense" for years.  Pretty much since Arians left (I mean, "retired").

Been amongst the bottom in PA% for years (can't blame the old immobile QB any more).

I gave up on Tomlin about 6-7 years ago when I realized the guy was way overrated thanks to a HOF QB and GM.

I’ve watched the games too….offense has been irritating forever. I still doubt it’s that crazy from the norm. I mean year 5 wide and Ben was going to be obvious pass and run plays have always been obvious, but I thought the same during much of the Cowher days too.


It’s just frustrating. Pickett doesn’t seem to have a chance. I don’t know if his peak is above average but doesn’t seem measurable as things are.

About 4 years ago (so Fitchner was OC), it seemed like Tomlin got the genius idea to run Belicheck's small ball offense.  And then the U-shaped offense became lower-cas "u" with a ton of quick throws short of the sticks.

Tomlin always mandated TOP, but four years ago the focus became "stay on schedule" and get to manageable 3rd downs.  But then they don't want to take a sack, so they get the ball out quick short of the sticks hoping and praying the receiver gains the line with RAC.

Tomlin is a decent DC, at least in the regular season, masquerading as a HC.  But he has all the soundbites!

More Bears....lol

And I read that Soldier Field got robbed today, with something like 100K worth of mowers and gators missing. With Fields sucking, the defensive coordinator abruptly resigning, this, your post and probably a few other things I'm just not thinking of going on, this could be one of the more entertaining bad years for a team we've witnessed.
