Around the NFL - FA tampering/start

D.Jax and Shady McCoy absolutely roasting Chip Kelly in this podcast (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o7npU_xQwRQ) haha. I'm not even a podcast guy but I listened to the entire thing. Unfortunately they got it right with Doug Pederson but honestly it's kinda amazing seeing NFL players talk unfiltered about their former head coach. We need someone to do a podcast about Jay Gruden.

Also this was a highlight of that podcast - D.Jax calls up Jason Peters and asks him his opinion of Chip Kelly (https://youtu.be/o7npU_xQwRQ?si=d4N65fQRC-57yvnY&t=3022).

I can’t believe folks wanted Chip Kelly here as the OC. I was 1000% hell no on that possibility

that was a great listen

got me through a run i wasn't really wanting to do

funny how djax won't say the word redskins but has no problem saying the N word

plenty of people have talked about gruden, and he's talked a bunch too. He was an average coach that did and average job while snyder was being snyder. And he cut the RB that was dating the same girl he was.

I mean we've heard tidbits, and I know we've all heard the story about Kapri? Bibbs. But I'm talking like a hands-on deep dive perspective from a former player about why Gruden lost the locker room or why he and leadership were shitty talent evaluators. That podcast episode was a deeeep dive. Was anybody talking about how Chip Kelly had issues relating to black players before this?

Gruden couldn't find the right defense coordinator, which cost him the job IMO. He had the offense running smoothly but his defense couldn't stop anyone.

chip kelly had issuing relating to a lot of players, that had leaked out before.

as far as JG - synder was more involved than anyone wanted him to be. RGIII couldn't read a defense and got benched (2014). as far as losing the locker room, he was here too long and didn't win enough (35-44 heading into season 6, went 0-5 and was fired).

I don't think you're going to get super crazy stories out of a tell-all, just insight about mediocre people doing mediocre things. I could always be wrong though.

Lawrence isn't worth the investment.

Lawrence isn't worth the investment.Contract is massive and a lot more than expected. He is good but not sure about that good. That is elite qb money.
