But it's the injuries....
 
"Difficulty with his confidence and trouble making good decisions" is perhaps the nicest way I've heard someone say "He sucks."

I bet this guy yelled "WE WANT BRADY" after week 1:
 

This team hasn't done anything good for its fans in amidst 2 decades
 
It's time we take a stand 
 
Stop biting their ****ing tickets you *****s 
 
This team will never be good 
 
NEVER

I think they are closer than most people think.
 
I recall Belichick being miked up for the Jags game earlier in the season, and they showed a clip of him talking with Gus Bradley and telling him he can see what he's trying to do and the team is going in the right direction.  Belichick sees all, he knows all.
 
Or he was just being pleasant.

Okay, why does CBS continue to hire Mike Carey? There isn't anyone that could present that information better?
 
Mike is pretty media savvy I think and a very nice guy. He was also a pretty popular ref and has a ton of experience doing it.

Fair enough, but his delivery just doesn't work for me. It's the aesthetics of his speech, where everything sounds like a struggle for just which words to use.

This season has me wondering...who do you guys think is the worst quarterback that BB and McDaniels could coach to a winning record?

Do they get 2008 Randy and Wes too?

A lot, but I think BB would radically change the offense to suit whoever was the QB at the time. I have no doubt that they would run whatever gimmick BS offense was required to win. For whatever reason I think a lot of coaches get hired and feel like their job is to implement their system rather than figure out how to win with the talent they have.

Here is the thing about the Jaguars.
 
They could be up by 35 right now and I would have no confidence in them holding on to win.

Watching this game on Yahoo! is very unpleasant.  The picture freezes, the picture goes out of focus, I can't be on SoSH and watch the game at the same time.  Why are they doing this?  It's a terrible advertisement for live streaming.

Yahoo must have written a big check for this (for their own reasons) right?  I can't imagine any other way this would happen.

Allowing the possibility of a package of streaming games opens up another revenue stream for the league and new potential broadcast partners (Netflix/Amazon/Apple/Google etc)

Maybe CBS and Fox incepted the idea knowing this would happen, thereby reaffirming the dominance of the televised broadcast.

likely a "problem" on your end. streaming HD video is resource intensive.
 
need a good, stable connection.
 
I realize this doesn't reflect well on Yahoo, but it's probably not "their fault"

I've noticed a few times that the picture went blurry, which never happens when I stream GamePass. 
 
I stream a bunch of games (including Sunday night, some weekend afternoon games) and this is by far the worst in terms of stability and picture quality.   Obviously, how their setup interacts with my system is a part of it--but, I'm likely above average american in my hardware/router too so if I have issues it's not a great sign for a 'tv replacement' approach

Agreed. Heck, the blurriness was noticeable on the highlights they showed. I don't think my system rocks or anything but it's a fifth gen i5 with plenty of ram which handles most things I've thrown at it.
