    What does he have to negotiate with? He's done nothing to earn leverage

    I don't get the anti player sentiment in these negotiations.  He certainly has a right to try to get the best deal he can. This is about off set language. I don't understand why this. Contract situation would make someone not want him as a raven?

    Will Redmond was one of my favorite players in this year's draft. His athletic ability mixed with his cover skills and hands really wowed me. His tape was solid, and early reports sound like he's a hard working guy who has lots of intangibles. 

    I like the pick. I picked him for the Jets. The late acl tear is a concern and none of these medical red shirt players have worked out for the 49ers. Hopefully this kid is different

    I'm so glad this guy didn't fall to us.  Holding out when your salary is scheduled is just insane.  Especially when he will have to learn a new position (as he would have here.)  I can't imagine the reception when he does sign will be a warm one.

    Why hold it against a player for strong negotiating?  It's a business negotiation. Only the front office is allowed to negotiate?

    But billick handpicked boller and pounded the table for him. Without billick It is a guarantee that we would have been nowhere near boller

    Who was still better than the previous parade of horrendous QBs. Unfortunately finding the right QB is the hardest thing to do from a team building standpoint in all of sports. They are all a shot in the dark coming out. Case in point Manning v Leaf was a real debate. Regardless that should not be what Billick is primarily judged for. If that's the case lets crucify Belichick as well as his gm track record is bad.

    Zootopia was interesting.  Made a reference to Breaking Bad unless im reading to far into it, but I don't think I was. 

    Central Intelligence- meh, decently funny but those movies aren't really my think

    The new Star Trek movie was amazing, im not even a huge Trek fan but I absolutely loved it. 

    Zootopia was an awesome kids movie and that was definitely a breaking bad reference!

    He made Matt schaub a perennial top 10 guy statistically. The Texans FO was whiffing on every single move when he was there. He was in Houston prior to jj watt setting the world on fire, they had an average defense and one of the most consistent balanced offenses in the league and he only had 2 great players in AJ and daniels, everyone else on that offense produced ONLY because of kubiaK(cough Arian foster) and Brian Cushing/Jonathan Joseph were the stars of the defense at that time. 

     

    Kubiak is an excellent coordinator and a brilliant football mind, and His resume is not long enough considering the circumstances. Houston's front office was a total dumpster fire up until seemingly a few years ago

    Those are all OC accolades. Completely different. And the later teams were building some good defenses as well.

  7. That assessment of Billick is bogus. How is it his job to find a QB?  That's the gm. Billick completely changed the perception of the Ravens from the loser Browns to champions. That championship would not have been won with marchibroda or others. The HC job is to lead the team to the best of its ability not to be a coordinator only and that's what he did.

    Just goes to show you that hanging out with Bryant McKinnie on a bus with stripper poles in it probably isn't the best way to spend your evening.

    The Baltimore Orioles have had their fair share of bizarre injuries landing people on the DL.

    Marty Cordova fell asleep in a tanning bed and burned himself so badly he had to take time off. Sammy Sosa sneezed and threw out his back. Glenn Davis got in a bar room brawl and had his jaw broken. He came back and was promptly hit in the face with a foul ball in the dugout and broke his jaw again. David Segui would just simply wake up and fall apart.

    The best one was the two Jags kickers injured making fondue

    Kubiak is set. He's not going anywhere. But I have this hunch you just may value him a bit more when this season has finished.

    I'd be happy to revisit Kubiak after this year. He's got quite an extensive resume of mediocrity for all but one year of his head coaching career. You have to give him some credit for last year but I believe his extreme conservative coaching style hinders them more than benefits. And that will play itself out.

    Kubiak without question.

    Having read the endorsement of Belichick here, it's sickening.  We can beat them with better decision making, there is no need to join them. 

    Those believing he'd be the best choice, pull his Superbowl Week defense to cheating video regarding temperature and gas pressures.  This guy knew what was going on very early in the cheating.

    Lol Kubiac.  That's pretty funny.  Far too conservative. I'd be close to 20 guys before picking him.
