I'm thinking the org is such a stinker, I'd pass.
The Jets actually have a good GM. This is yet another example of shitty owners being allowed to be shitty without consequence. If they let Joe Douglas run the team, it's a decent opportunity for bieniemy. Their offense actually has solid talent. [Reply]

The NFL should do relegation like euro soccer. [Reply]

I always kinda liked Detroit's uni but that's not what ails them. They rid the organization of BB rejects and that's good. If I was them Id seriously consider John Dorsey as GM to build a team and draft a little better. When he wears out his welcome you may have a sound base to move from him and get back to respectability. [Reply]

Based on what?
He's had one draft. He shipped out their best defensive player in Adams and didn't do anything to upgrade the roster this offseason. Last year, before they shipped everyone out, they finished with a 7-9 record and now, they're 0-10.
Through 10 games, their point differential is -153. Dallas, the next closest team, is currently -108 after 11 games.
The Jets will probably finish at -200 or greater. Their entire roster and coaching staff needs to be fired.
Hell, I'd fire everyone outside of the Admin and janitorial staff. [Reply]

The Lions have been losers for the past 70 years.
They need to flush everything down the toilet, including their uniforms, and start fresh.
The Ravens have won two Super Bowls since changing their logo and moving to Baltimore. The Bengals were perennial losers until they changed their uni's in the 80's and while they've fallen to loser status the past few years, appeared in two Super Bowls during the 1980's.
The Lions have been the worst team in the NFL for more than 7 decades. It's time for massive changes or it'll be the same old Lions in 2021 and beyond. [Reply]

Unless the Ford's sell the team, EB needs to stay the F away from there.
They literally burn and destroy every good thing that happens to them. They failed to surround Barry Sanders with talent and he retired early. They wouldn't build a team to take advantage of Megatron or Stafford, and one of the most talented receivers in history retires early. They have a QB who threw for the 2nd or 3rd most yards after 5 years in NFL history, and they fail to build a team around him, and they wasted a very talented QB.
Well, I say they failed, but they may not be capable of succeeding because their ownership is incapable of hiring competent GMs, or competent Head Coaches, and they are incapable of building a team through the draft.
The franchise literally screws up whatever they have going for it, seemingly on purpose, and has proven over and over that they they are rotten from the top down.
Edit: Just look at how long they let Matt Millen drive the franchise into the ground. Matt Millen was like Bill O'Brien 1.0
