RE: NFL 2015 Season

^ They're done regardless. Owners that let a coach like Harbaugh go are not as concerned with winning as they should be. Harbaugh might be a difficult prick but I'd take him on my team in a heartbeat. And I'm guessing almost all of the NFL would say the same. This is a guy who came into town and led an Alex Smith QB'ed team to the NFC title game and then went to the Super Bowl and another title game with Kaepernick. I'd die for a coach that good in GB. Put someone like that here and there'd be probably 2 more Lombardi's in the past 4 years.

San Fran's only hope of becoming good again was for Kaepernick to really turn it around, otherwise you have an aging beat up D and mediocre (if I'm being generous) talent on offense

Chip Kelly might be the dumbest motherf'er on planet Earth. I'm speechless at these moves he has been making. It's like the Eagles are doing everything possible to tank for the foreseeable future.

I renamed this thread 2015 NFL Draft, Free Agency & Retirements

^ And Patrick Willis.

Good thought on renaming the thread. It's been a crazy few days in the NFL.

As for how this changes things:

1. I'm happy with GB getting Bulaga and Cobb back. Was hoping they'd keep House but the Jags threw ridiculous money at him. I think GB is going to have to bring back Tramon Williams now, hopefully a 3 year deal at most. Anyways the personnel isn't the problem with this team and hasn't been for awhile. Their coaching staff is a negative, not just a neutral, they are a negative.

2. I'm pissed Seattle got Graham. That is huge for them. On the other hand losing Maxwell is going to hurt because the Super Bowl and early 2014 regular season proved that they do not have depth in that secondary.

3. The AFC East might get a little interesting next year with Suh joining a young Miami team and Revis leaving New England for the Jets. I'm sure New England will find a way but they're getting some tougher games next year no question.

4. I contacted Chip Kelly and asked him to give me $1,000 in return for $500. He insisted on giving me a Big Mac to go with the $1,000.

Well they landed DeMarco Murray now. I still wouldn't let him off the hook for the McCoy trade because there was absolutely no guarantee they would get Murray when he made that deal. I still think the Eagles will be worse with Bradford-Murray than they were with Foles-McCoy. It's a big difference running behind that Dallas O-Line compared to the rest of the NFL. And Bradford is likely to get hurt just walking on the plane to Philly.

There's news that Troy Polamalu is retiring:

Don't forget the Draft starts today in my fair city. There will be loads of people downtown this weekend.

I certainly haven't forgotten. I will be watching Bucks-Bulls. GB won't draft until long after that game is over. Packers better go for inside linebacker and then cornerbacks
