Big Blue Huddle

Fire Thomas McGaughey

Like this morning....

After last night I suppose Bobby Johnson can stick around until the end of the season.

Next year TT is the odd man out.

Jones will be back for his 69 million dollars and Schoen would be crazy not to bring TD back.

Until the draft, it is what it is....

I will say this, our QB play has been so bad for so long it is hard to imagine that this is what is getting people excited.

Who really wants him at that cost?

Didn't follow rumors as I was hoping they weren't interested .

Schoen has no ties to Jones.  He didnt draft him and did not activate his option.

Certainly Jones performance this year does not call for a repeat

I do not think Jones will be our QB next year.  Schoen will find a way to unload Jones

Schoen never said he would not take a QB, he said when Jones is healthy, he is the QB.  

With 69 mill dead cap next year I would expect jones to be the QB and allow the Oline to further develop.  

Either build up his value and trade him or let him exist while the new QB gets comfortable, and the line develops more.

All this being said I agree, its double talk setting Schoen up for the draft. he hides his intentions much better than DG ever did.

the many names for our region's favorite sandwiches

now I'm hungry

I miss Amoroso Sub Rolls

I need to drive 35 miles just to get to a jersey mikes
And slightly further to get to my favorite Italian grocery store/deli

I miss Ben's Deli in Morrisville, Pa and White House Subs in AC

I wish I could get a decent hoagie, here in Wisconsin.

Quote from: Gmo11 on November 22, 2023, 10:00:33 AMQuick will definitely get a couple starts during this run of games and it does seem like Shesty is still finding his game a bit after the injury.  A lot of goals trickling in on shots he seems to have secured.  Some of that is bad luck but there's been a lot of that the past couple games.  He did flash that Vezina skill in his first game back after a shaky first period though so I think it's in there and he will find it again as the season goes along.  We got a long ways to go! 

I agree some of that is just lack of puck luck.

Tracking the puck comes in waves as well, sometimes it seems like a beachball, sometimes not so much.

Journalism is dead

Sensationalized current events has taken its place

Hardest Fantasy Football Challenge of them all. 

I think losing is the point. Schoen has personally scouted the QBs in contention for selection

If they take a TE I would lose all faith in this team

I had three hockey practices yesterday and missed the game; I do enjoy reading your write ups.   

Proud Dad moment, my 14 year old freshman decided to school choice to a neighboring school district for high school to play hockey with the kids he grew up playing, also a significantly better program.  Despite being a guaranteed 4-year letter winner in our home districts very poor hockey coop he left for the unknown and a most certain spot on JV.  

Last night,  I was told he just missed making 2nd line but made varsity as the 3rd line center. The kid is a 125 lb 5'6" undersized 14 year old playing 14-19 year olds; this should be interesting.  

Love the fact he took a chance and went for the unknown; couldn't be prouder!

Back to the Rangers: 

With only 1 game over the next 8 days and 2 games over the next 10 days it will be interesting to see how healthy they can get and if they can take on the Devils with a high intensity level of play.  

I have read the practices this year are much more intense than last year but they are given more days off from physical practice as a trade off and have more film and strategy sessions. 

I am hopeful Laviolette can keep them intense and focused. 

I was thinking 35 at first and laughed to myself that probably isn't enough. Ill go  42



I would parlay the bet

38.5 over/under - Take the OVER

cowboys - 16.5 - Dallas

Dallas scores on first 3 drives


Seems realistic, I wonder what the return on that would be

Dallas was beyond surprising. 

I expected a passionate, fired up team to build off last year and play with a purpose on their home field.  To be 100% unprepared when there was so much to play for was horrible.

and then there was the Raiders Game


Getting blown out in such a lopsided affair by an underachieving, down in the dumps franchise that just fired their coach after the loss to the Jets was very telling about what this team is. The Giants first 3 drives to star the game were a disgrace (turn over on downs, sacks to end up in 3rd and 27, and a 3 and out).  Jones comeback game with everything to play for, seeing TT handle the reality of the offense much better than he had been to date came out looking like crap again only to get knocked out.   No urgency, no will, no desire; just more horrible uninspired, passionless football from the leader on down.

Just horrible.   

I honestly thought the team looked half way decent vs buffalo and could turn the season around off that game despite the loss.

Let's hope the embarrassment doesn't force Mara into any rash decisions 

After Dallas, it's still down hill till the off-season 

0-8 down the stretch looks like how this is playing out
