      Has there ever been a move that was universally panned by the public at the time that ever worked out for the team?

      When Meyer was hired, everyone was like "Huh?"

      Kinda like when O'Brien traded DeAndre Hopkins for David Johnson.

      These teams should have a committee of fans and gauge their opinion first, lol. We're rarely wrong.

        He didn’t even have to fake an illness first! First it was the “heart problems” that resolved themselves as soon as a better job opened up. Then it was the massive headaches that only manifested when something bad happened and he was under investigation for having a domestic abuser on staff and knowing about it.

          Heck, we could do a committee of about five RJers with soda, beer and pizza and have done way better than Meyer. Now, whether we'd actually get it right.....but, dang, we'd certainly have done better than Urban Meyer.

          Edit to add: Wonder if Khan will try and claim the firing is for cause. That'll get interesting.

              Vincent Jackson, former WR who killed himself, had stage 2 CTE.

              Philip Adams, former CB who murdered six people, had stage 2 CTE.

                Washington is up to at least 20 players out on COVID protocols.

                Bill Lazor, Bears OC, is also out with COVID. Meaning Matt Nagy will be calling plays.

                  Are you encouraging Vikings -4.5 with your post?

                    Does betting equal encouraging? Because I'd take that line in a second if Nagy is calling plays.

                      All it takes is one little winning streak.

                        Supposedly some in the players' union are suggesting that the season be postponed a week to deal with all the COVID outbreaks right now. At this point, the Browns are going to have a tough time fielding a full team. Luckily for them they don't really have a tough game coming up....

                          Why the outbreak?

                            It's probably the omicron variant, which is far more transmissible, although I haven't heard that from any league.

                            EDIT - Yup, John Hansen confirmed this on his XM fantasy show this morning. He said league sources told him it's the omicron variant that is spreading wildly.

                              Yeah, saw the same. Pretty interesting that teams that are heavily vaxxed are still getting hammered. Gives a POV on potential for Omicron infection even if vaxxed, but in close contact with a lot of people.

                              Edit to add: Tim Couch's Twitter feed on being ready if they need him is hilarious.
