    The 700 Level - Home of the Ginger Jesus.

    Kellen Moore has gotten the OC job and I’m a little torn about that I’ve always felt Moore offences were often too show off-y in the sense that he dials up and calls cool and creative shit but gets cute and gets away from just running the stuff that works. The other part that is bad is if this...

    The 700 Level - Home of the Ginger Jesus.

    Well, the DC situation resolved itself rather quickly Vic Fangio out in Miami and he's an absolute stone cold lock to take up the DC role with Philly I was pretty firm on my feel of being done with these Fangio tree DCs But i think there is a fairly large difference between guys who have...

    As expected, someone had to be sacrificed for these sins and if it wasnt gonna be Sirianni, it was going to Johnson The Coordinator search is underway and there is some... interesting names already being thrown out. They've interviewed Ron Rivera for the DC role, they've reached out to Wink...

    The Cocktail (and Spirits) Thread

    Its definitely a distant cousin of a pina colada with all it's coconut flavours but it's not nearly creamy and has a different taste profile. Love me a Pina colada though!

    Who's Nofo bringing with him to fill the decent back you're missing? Dont worry, come round 6 the Raiders will probably happily give you Nick Cotric to get Ethan Sanders early

    Well Sirianni surived Sean Desai is out and Matt Patricia will be departing the org too (though he was not contracted beyond this year, so didnt need to be fired). Sounds like to me they are waiting to see what happens with Brian Johnson, he's interviewing for HC gigs, they'd be silly to fire...

    2024 rule change: drop-out and kick-off penalties

    Can you walk me through this line of thinking as it relates to my post? Im not following at all I didnt suggest at all short kick offs would produce close contests.

    2024 rule change: drop-out and kick-off penalties

    I dont know guys... like i get it, we've had a lot of rule changes under PVL and some of them have SUUUCKED! But i wouldnt immediately rule out the idea that this could be good I agree it will disincentivise kicks in behind the line, which are good try scoring opportunities but also a means to...

    2024 rule change: drop-out and kick-off penalties

    Every kick off and drop out should be short unless you’re protecting a lead late in the game That change has, in my view, completely flipped the risk reward component of that and the reward now substantially outweighs minimal risks edit: I don’t have strong views on whether that’s ultimately a...

    Im not in on the Pete Carroll thing I dont think thats the answer... I dont actually love a lot of what he does defensively, and it's been a hot minute since he had a deep play off run. He's also a defensive HC, and under Lurie and Roseman they've hired nothing but offensive HCs and i wouldnt...

    Agreed Defence has flat out quit on its coaches and frankly, i dont blame em.. Need to invest in LB and S, need a playcaller and architect that can actually put these players in position to succeed. This tackling and effort isnt on coaching, its on the players. But the players are responding to...

    What a strange situation. Why did it take the Dragons so long to conduct a physical and get the medical clearances? Cant help but feel that Volkman has been let down by his representation here. No idea why anyone would think the Warriors are on the hook for anything. He requested a release and...

    The 700 Level - Home of the Ginger Jesus.

    It's certainly opened things up for Philly, if they win, they're either at home against the Rams or on the road to Detroit... i wouldnt think we'd beat either of those two teams but it's a more desirable match up to the Niners In any event i think we'll likely lose to the Bucs so its all moot...

    The 700 Level - Home of the Ginger Jesus.

    Im not sure he'd be willing to coach in an environment where someone else - Howie Roseman in this case, has more power than him. The control in which Roseman has on day to day operations is actually pretty rare. I cant BB agreeing to work under that and i dont see Roseman being willing to give...

    Entire Wests Tigers Board Sacked

    TBH i think the best case scenario might be that Benji is an absolute f**king shit show and you can justify moving on and getting someone who... like i dont know... didnt happen to be in the 05 tigers team (the hide of me to say that as a raiders fan when a '94 hero has my team in a f**king...

    2022/23 College Football

    Yeah 12 team play off is going to be FIRE next year I think if it was a 12 team play off this year, good chance the Gerogia bulldogs do the damn thing again. Which is not to take anything from Michigan.... this sign stealing fiasco is such a meh thing for me, every damn programme is stealing...

    Entire Wests Tigers Board Sacked

    Tigers might really actually have something going here I reckon if i was a tigers fan, this would be the most hopeful i've been in years. At least they're doing something different and Richardson for all his issues i think does seem to have a plan and a vision. It's the tigers so im sure it...

    The defence is not salvageable Defensively Matt Patricia has turned an inconsistent and frustrating unit into the worst defence in the league. The concepts they run, and the ease at which teams are able to manipulate eagles into looks that have Hassan Reddick and Josh Sweat in coverage is...

    The 700 Level - Home of the Ginger Jesus.

    first qtr and both Sidney and AJ Brown have already left the game with injuries. Hopefully nothing serious that compromises their off season
