I wouldn’t be shocked if they finally move on from AB this offseason. Especially with JuJu playing like an all pro.
Hard to say, JuJu didn't play well without Brown yesterday and it was against Cinn defense that is known for weak secondary.. I know because I have both on one of my FFL teams. Just like Tyler Boyd - he exploded but he went back to reality when AJ Green was out.

Re: Around the NFL Week 17

Is Gregg out or in?

I've read more recent reporting that he is being interviewed.

Re: Around the NFL Week 17

After a 5-3 record as interim coach they'd be dumb not to interview him. Still I think the rumors they will go in a different record are classic Browns, no offense to their next coach but their interim coach is probably the best coach they've had since '99.

For those of you who love keeping up with Kirk, good article here about how the Skins/Vikings/Broncos were all losers in this deal.

Our biggest lost was not trading him when there was a market for him. Otherwise, Alex's broke leg has nothing to do with Cousins. It's just bad luck. Pretty sure things would have been different had Alex not gone down.

That being said, if the Vikes can invest in other areas, they can be a playoff team next season. Otherwise, they are going to be screwed out of a lot of money by Kirk, since he is on a 3-year deal.

If things go south again for the Vikes next season, I expect a lot of the same drama with Cousins in regards to his future with the Vikings, as we saw here.

Re: Around the NFL Week 17

If Alex had stayed healthy I believe we would have been the 6 seed at 9-7. I think that is the main reason Jay kept his job, same for sorry ass bruce

naw, I thought the team was flatten out on offense and defense right around the Alex injury. The play of Alex and the receiving corp was poor...and with the Oline collapsing do to injury, I don't it would have mattered. I thought it was telling that Colt came in and played better than Alex immediately.

Plus the defense played right around the 12-9 ranked in the league the first half....not bad. But the second half of the year it fell off to around 20-25 in the league. It had an impact.

I don't see a reason why they can't. If they can't put a quality roster together with 160 million then they have FO issues as bad as we do.

Despite of what fans think, Alex gave the team confidence and leadership (Keim tweeted about this). I think the lack of confidence by the team, was partly responsible for the breakdown we've seen. I'm not justifying it, especially with the defense, given that they were relatively healthy, but it happened.

Re: Around the NFL Week 17

The Skins ended up what they should have been all year. 7 or 8 wins. This team isn't loaded by any means and we have the worst WR core n the NFL.

33 YO Adrian Peterson was our MVP this yr, let that sink in
