2024-25 NFL Season
- Thread starter Doc Holliday
- Start date
The biggest problem with the NFL is that it has a tremendous lack of talent in the head coaching ranks. Find me a good playoffs team & you’ll find a good head coaching leading it. You look at teams like Chicago & the Jets & you have to wonder how some of these guys ever managed to ever be named head coach! Find me a bad team & more often than not you’ll find a bad coach running it. Mickey Mouse organizations like the Jets & Bears also tend to hire bad coaches because the best ones don’t want to coach in such a circus atmosphere where the owners are often meddling & are incompetent owners.
Taysom Hill out for the year with a serious knee injury. Sorry Gaby.
Christian McCaffrey out for the regular season with a pcl (knee) injury.

Never easy for TAYSOM.....anyway his team again is going nowhere...quant à McCAFFREY il semble un joueur fragile....ça ne va pas changer non plus grand chose avec une équipe qui ne va nulle part....alors les boys prenez soin de vous...et revenez nous dans un meilleur état next season...2 équipes qui ont grand besoin de vos talents.

Al-Shaair suspended 3 games after Lawrence hit
The NFL has suspended Texans LB Azeez Al-Shaair three games for repeated violations of player safety rules after his hit to the head of Jaguars QB Trevor Lawrence.
49ers lost their top two RB to season-ending knee injuries in the Buffalo game. Bosa is hurt, Trent Williams is hurt, Ayiuk is hurt, Kittle is banged up & Brock Purdy is playing with a sore throwing shoulder. The Niners are having a miserable season mostly caused by many injuries to their top players however they still have an outside chance at the playoffs since they’re playing in the worse division in football! The window for the Niners is closing considering Brock Purdy is withoiut a contract & they’ll have to spend a lot of money to retain him. This likely means they’ll have to cut some of their expensive veterans in order to pay Purdy. Is this the last time we see McCaffrey as a Niners? What about George Kittle? Tney’re great players but it seems that year after year they’re always hurt.
Lawrence to IR with Concussion; Season Over

Jags QB Lawrence to IR, likely ending his season
The Jaguars are placing quarterback Trevor Lawrence on injured reserve, likely ending his season.
Bills signed long-time Bills player & veteran Micah Hyde today. He had several offers to join other teams during the offseason but preferred to retire if he couldn’t play for the Bills. Former teammate Jordan Poyer decided to sign with the Dolphins & Tredavious White signed with the Rams prior to the start of the season since the Bills were pretty much capped out. Hyde will be on the practice squad for a couple of weeks & depending on his progress likely won’t join the Bills this month unless there are injuries to the secondary. Bills fans are rejoicing at the news!
In other news, Diontae Johnson suspended for refusing to play/insubordination/conduct detrimental to the team:

Ravens suspend WR Johnson for refusing to play
The Ravens suspended wide receiver Diontae Johnson for one game for conduct detrimental to the team.
He was & was one of the team captains the last few seasons he played. Unfortunately he often battled injuries including having to undergo c-spine (neck) surgery 2-3 years ago but did return to action afterwards. My guess is that they always wanted to bring him back for one more season but had cap issues due to big contracts granted to Josh Allen, Von Miller & Stefon Diggs (which they are still paying for). He was likely signed for depth in the secondary, veteran leadership & playoffs experience. The players he’d be in line to replace have all had very good seasons. Some of them like Demar Hamlin may even get to be pucked for the Pro Bowl.

Hearing that the Chicago Bears are seriously considering trading for one of the top established head coaches in the league. My take is that any top coaching candidate (Shanahan, McVay, etc) would likely want a lot of control over personel decisions including possibly even getting to chose who he’d want as GM. If they’d rather save the picks & hire someone else the names Bill Bellichick, Mike Vrabel & Ben Johnson come to mind.
Great game indeed! And even better the Packers made me a cool $400 by beating the spread by half a point! Yes!
