How do you think the Dallas Cowboys feel about Detroit’s Ndamukong Suh’s suspension being reduced to a $70,000 fine? If anything it tells us Jerry Jones doesn’t run the NFL. I think it is the wrong decision, I don’t think Suh should be allowed to play, and I’m rooting for the Lions from the get-go!
Jim Haslett is out after five seasons as defensive coordinator for the Washington Redskins. This is good news for Redskins fans, but bad news for Oakland Raiders faithful as I’m sure he’s been added to their retread head coaching search along with Eric Mangini.
In the Comments:
Note to Foot Fetish: I did try to disengage from the Rams after they left, but I couldn’t. Too much history, scar tissue, emotional attachment. I tried to go Chiefs and Redskins, even the Jets a bit, but while I’ll still root for those teams a crushing defeat won’t haunt me the way a 27-16 loss to Dallas does from 1973, a 14-10 Vikings loss in 1974, a 37-7 loss to the Cowboys in 1975, back to back losses (24-13 & 14-7) to Minnesota in 1976-1977, and 28-0 to Dallas in 1978.
Note to Matt: I still preach patience. You’ve got a quarterback and everyone whiffs in the draft…even Bill Belichick. Stay the course and stay away from Eric Mangini and Jim Haslett. If either of those guys start collecting paychecks from the Silver & Black, turn in your eye patch…Matt you also have to realize your dealing with the bad mojo of Al Davis. It permeates the organization, so short of Father Merrin and Father Karras coming in and performing an exorcism, you’re just going to have to let it play out.
