I was looking forward to watching the National Championship game tonight, until ESPN played a propaganda puff piece from the fat, fascistic, felon tonight. Game went off as soon as I saw ESPN turn into state TV for this fat ****.

I agree. I was only posting Petzing's stats in Arizona to share them with the group and as a point of discussion in the event there is anything we can learn from the number. I don't think it is an indictment on him as a coordinator and play caller though. Goff is a better overall QB than Murray. He's more accurate, has better mechanics, makes better decisions with the ball, and stays healthy unlike Murray. As you said, Petzing seems to have an offensive system and playbook built around a more traditional, under center QB. Designed for more runs and play action. Given Goff's a better fit than Murray and has proven he can stay healthy, I think this will be more of a true tell for who Petzing is as a coordinator now that he has the personnel to fit his scheme.

Valenti is saying this guy was a Groosman in Ben Johnson's wedding and was close friends with Ben.

Apparently Petzing has a run-heavy scheme and runs lots of play action with two TE sets. Sounds like a guy tailored made for Goff.

Under Petzing's watch in Arizona the Cardinals had the following offensive rankings . . . FYI sack % is essentially what percentage of the time does the QB end up getting sacked. A higher ranking means your QB was less likely to be sacked and a lower rankings in the 20s or below means he was more likely to be sacked. 2025: 19th in yards/game, 5th in total passing yards, 31st in total rushing yards, 23rd in total points, 21st in EPA with -.02 EPA (Expected points per play), 25th in sack %. 2024: 11th in yards/game, 21st in total passing yards, 7th in total rushing yards, 12th in total points, 10th in EPA with .06 EPA (Expected points per play), 5th in sack %. 2023: 19th in yards/game, 26th in total passing yards, 5th in total rushing yards, 24th in total points, 21st in EPA with -.07 EPA (Expected points per play), 21st in sack %.

Interesting to see that all the mobile QBs have been eliminated from the playoffs this year. All the people who want to run Goff out of town for a more mobile QB I guess don't want to have their team still in the playoffs. Granted, I wanted to run Stafford out of town once upon a time and for that I was WRONG!

Brady was high on my list for Michigan coaching candidates, so I'd have no problem with him being considered here for OC. Do you fault Brady's play calling for Allen fumbling the ball twice and throwing multiple INTs in the playoff game against Denver. I suppose on one or two of them you could link it back to play designs and whatever. But I don't look at Brady's playcalling as the reason Buffalo lost that game or failed to get past the Kansas City hump each of the last few seasons. He's a young, up-and-coming coordinator who I would love to have here as an OC now that he's likely available.

Never forget, this is a guy we're supposed to reaver as a national hero.

I've started looking at prospects and who I would love for the Lions to get. For the first round, I'm only looking at offensive lineman and Edge/DE's right now. I know Brad Holmes goes BPA when he drafts, so most any non-QB or special teams position is an option. I really think though that we need to be spending our 1st round pick on either Oline or a pass rusher of some sort. I would go crazy if we were able to land a guy like Spencer Fano from Utah at Tackle. He's the top Tackle in the draft most likely, so that probably isn't happening. But man, you talk about rebuilding the line and quickly, having two maulers at the Tackle positions in Fano and Sewell would do it. I think we have better odds of getting the other Utah Tackle in Caleb Lomu or getting the Guard from Penn State Olaivavega Ioane.

Shocker as in Yzerman sat on his hands and didn't make a move or shocker as in Vegas was aggressive and made a move?

Days like today really frustrate me and make me hate this franchise and this team. 59 Super Bowls and the Ford family and their pathetic franchise hasn't even lucked into one ****ing Super Bowl. Meanwhile, in a matter of two years post Bill Belichick, the Patriots drafted a new QB, rebuilt their roster from the ground up, and are making a Super Bowl. Meanwhile, this franchise and the smartest guys in the room in this regime are going backwards. I get it, progress isn't always linear. But to see New England go back to get another Super Bowl, to see them rebuild their franchise in two years, disgusts me. Boston sports fans have it so damn good. I don't actually hate this franchise or this regime. It's just so frustrating.

A complete bitch move by him. In this big a game, you go for it every time. Way to important of a game to be turtling like that and quitting.

Come on, **** off New England. They have a 15 year, multi-Super Bowl run with Tom Brady and now they're likely going back in less than a decade. Meanwhile, we're sitting at home not even in the playoffs yet again. Some fans have it sooooooooooo good. Unbelievable.

Nice job to every ****ing clown who voted for this clown. I thought we were more respected than ever around the world? By the way, if we do invade Greenland, I expect every big mouth, fake tough guy in MAGA to enlist. What an absolute ****ing embarrassment this all is.
