Cleveland started that show early, already fired their coach.At least we're not Cleveland. Or Dallas.
Anyone want to join me for some Black Monday popcorn?
Garret needs to go. I was going to make a crack about Jerry needing to fire the GM, but he really built a talented team. They should have gone to at least the NFC Championship games the last 2 years.
Jones won’t hire a coach that won’t do what Jerry wants. He fired Johnson because everyone was giving credit to him for the winning seasons. Jerry wants all the credit.
IIRC, when Switzer tried to shake Jerry's hand after winning Super Bowl XXX, Jerry grabbed the trophy instead.
Now it’s down to who the new puppet will be for coach Jerry.
I really want Brady to retire with his last pass ever being a pick six. I know it won't happen like that, but I want it to.
So a day after officially moving on from Jason Garrett, the Cowboys hire Mike McCarthy. That is awfully quick.
Garrett is still on the short list for OC.

That's the worst decision I've ever heard by the Giants. Why? Because one of the rising things in the NFL is game-time analytics. This is like moneyball for football. Basically it's a data-driven assessment of any given situation and allows a team to make calls based on said data instead of "gut feelings". The poster child of this are the Baltimore Ravens. You can read about it a little bit here. Looking at their stats, the Ravens went from 25th in the league offensively in 2015 to first this year. All because they implemented an analytics-minded approach and are sticking with it.
Now look at Garrett, who scoffed at analytics and said that they are not valued. He's consistently made questionable calls on the offensive side of the ball and clock management. As a head coach he was 85-67 (.559) with ridiculous talent on the team.
He's a decent person but not a coach I'd want to have in 2020 or going forward unless he radically changes his outlook and style.
Well, at least he's not going to a place that is going to nit-pick and second guess every decision. It's just New York. 
SUPER BOWL MATCHUPS
- Packers vs. Chiefs - What is this, 1967?
- Packers vs. Titans - Intriguing matchup: old veteran QB vs. QB with a second wind; team looking for that next SB vs. team denied a Super Bowl for so long. (Scarily, this would feel a lot like the setup to SB XXXII for me...)
- 49ers vs. Chiefs - Surprise team from the NFC vs. The New Kids On The Block.
- 49ers vs. Titans - The Super Bowl You Thought You'd Never See(tm)
