Kobe ran Shaq out of LA and was a huge ball hog.
Jordan was better all around and got man handled. Now you can't even touch a guy without getting a foul called.
I don't see the elite teams of 10ish years ago until some serious holes were filled. Start with the offensive line. Replacing the OC isn't the answer. Geno Smith is the Brad Johnson/Dilfer/Nick Foles of quarterbacks. You need a stellar defense to support him. He's not going to carry a team on...

I hope they drop another 75%
I don't remember the o line being above average since 2006 or 2007. Unger was pretty good, but that was like 2013 and before. Pete managed to work around it somehow, but they don't have the talent to hide it right now.
Grubb is not the problem. My guess is MacDonald hated the lack of a running...
I don't know, it's already pretty far into Febrauary. I'm old enough to remember when it was January 23rdish some years. I agree that 18 games is better than 17. 17 is borderline stupid...half the teams are at a disadvantage since they have nine away games, and it gets even more convoluted with...
Consider Bevell got three years too long, that seems like a very short leash. The line and a quarterback who threw picks were the issues. He probably was a little too pass happy, but he deserved another year.
I looked at tickets as I'm within a 140 radius of Insurance Company Stadium. It went from as low as about $35 to $85 within maybe 10 days. Once we beat San Fransicko, I think demand went way up. Two tickets, plus gas and some food, not to mention parking...you're talking $325, and well over $600...
Feels like progress
I don't see every game because the streaming options suck and the sound doesn't work half the time, and I don't feel like spending $20 at a bar to watch a game with the sound down, but...better than getting battered by the bills a few weeks ago
Offense still a work in...
