I did the Bill Simmons Podcast yesterday, and we briefly touched on these sequences of plays in the Giants-Vikings game. Thanks for sending me the information on this game. I love it when readers are in tune with game management.
When I read what Mark had written, it was clear that Ralph Wilson wants to shake up the staff and bring in new coaches on one side of the ball or the other.
Cleveland owner Randy Lerner wants to hire a big name and wants to please the Browns’ fan base. I believe that Scott Pioli of the Patriots would be a perfect choice.
I know there is much wrong with the Cowboys besides the coaching, but owner Jerry Jones better make sure he takes a hard look at the entire staff. The Cowboys’ offense is bad now, and it’s not all Tony Romo’s fault.
