Pat Shurmur has been a disaster. It will be interesting to see if he survives black monday.

I honestly don't think guys should be losing their jobs over the use of words...though i realize Im in the minority on this stuff. I guess I do see it as another example of "cancel culture", though I hate that phrase as well.
Again, in this case, it seems like an enormous over reaction to a childish/poor choice of a word and its application.
Also, I have no affinity for the American "right" at all. American politics make me ill, though i dont believe we in Canada have any right to judge them considering what is happening in our own back yard.

athletes should just stay away from social media. Obviously unrealistic these days and maybe I'm a bit oldfashioned here, but I don't see how anything positive can come of it.

Well considering Jenkins called it the best news ever he does not seem too concerned. Being let go at this time of year from a 2-11 team does give him a chance to catch on with a playoff bound team at a time when injuries limit the player pool.
That said the Giants record in his time there is awful. No way they were going to keep him next year. I don't know if Jack Rabbit is a guy who could come in and help in a support role at this time of year.
I don't know which coach will go first on Black Monday but Shurmur, Dan Quinn, and Doug Marrone will all get fired. Jason Garrett will too unless his 7-9 team has to play a playoff game.

Barring a Super Bowl appearance it's safe to say Garrett will be a casualty of black monday.

He will lose his job for sure, but I don't think he will get fired on the same day as the other guys will if they have a playoff game that week. Although that would be pretty ballsy by Jerry Jones to do that.

Yeah, I just meant the Tucker Carlsons and Ben Shapiros of the world are strangely silent on this topic for "some" reason.

Not sure it's a big enough story and it's the weekend.

Barring a crazy reloction of some kind, it is the last game ever at the Black Hole today. Recently not what it once wss, but a lot of hard core fans who will likely never see a game there again.

The Titans always seem to be one yard short.

Based off the commentary from Eagles v Washington Football Team, Dwayne Haskins is the greatest QB off all time.

Yeah you got to apply the Eagles absolutely suck scale to any performance against them.

Lions are torn apart by Winception. There's no way Patricia survives Black Monday.

I believe in the Jays.

Good half for the Texans, up 14-0 on the road in a massive game.
