The cold and/or snow is not bad if you are bundled up. The worst is the rain, especially if you are not dressed properly. I used to not bundle up when I was younger thinking I could tough it out while my dad, uncle, and cousin were all bundled up. I was good for about the first half of the game, and then I freeze for the second half.:mjcry:.


I was at the Patriots v.s. Browns game in 2019 (the game where the Browns turned it over three straight times) and it was pouring at first. I forgot my damn boots, and I stepped in the biggest puddle humanly possible. My sneakers were soaked the entire game and it was horrible. Never again.

:damn:

The 2021 NFL Wild Card Game on Nickelodeon was a revelation to kids and families, becoming the network's most-watched program among total viewers in nearly four years and winning two Sports Emmys. It's coming back Sunday with as juicy and historically significant a matchup as possible: San Francisco 49ers-Dallas Cowboys.

CBS Sports analyst Nate Burleson, play-by-play broadcaster Noah Eagle and Nick star Gabrielle Nevaeh Green will return in the booth while Nick star Young Dylan will serve as a sideline reporter for the first time.

The ESPN Daily podcast: How to listen, episode guide and more



cliff notes.
ups and downs
dont think he got enough time to develop
took over roster signing people off street and
playing them

players in 2019 would point to him and say who is
that. went 5-11 with team expected to be worse in league
overachieved in 2020. choked away playoffs with buffalo
L
did not see next step took from 2020 season

Owner dont think they collaborated well together

Flores stopped talking with staff around thanxgiving
assistants felt didnt know what was going on
didnt know what he was thinking. didnt know plan.
it went on thru the win streak.

Grier/Flores bad relationship
Ross is Team Grier
1 man had to go. would be Flores

Ross said Tua played no role in firing
Flored wanted Herbert
Ross wanted Tua
Grier not gonna push his way over head coach
selecting Tua had to come from the top
cant just say Flores wanted Herbert

Grier part franchise 2002
will do what it takes to survive
Flores fired because he could not play politics game
Good at football but couldnt play the other game

Flores stood behind Tua when asked if qb
not really glowing support
according to Tua him and Flores had constant
communication. always on same page.
it did feel uncomfortable

GM came out after trade deadline and said they did
background on Deshaun Watson
Deshaun Watson rumors badly handled
1000 opportunities to shut it down but Grier and Flores
did not

Tua has unhinged support in Miami
fans do whatever to protect him and support him
feel he has done enough for another year
has to show can elevate offense on his own
Titans game happened. 1 qb looked worse when asked
to throw the ball
saw Herbert go 99 yrds. never saw Tua do that.
the Tua/Herbert debate should be over. Dolphins will
never have Herbert. debate should be Tua vs the available
options. Tua vs Dalton- rather have Tua
Tua vs Jimmy G would rather have Tua just because he's cheaper to have
Tua vs Tyrod, Teddy B. rather have Tua
he's an NFL starter. took #5 overall. expectations should be
higher

Flores will get another job. talented and has shown
enough. wanna see guys get 2nd chanced
Eric B get a chance. Leslie Frazier get a chance
Todd Bowles get another chance. Vance Joseph



Thanks very much for the cliffs. Interesting, and kinda what was being thrown around already, but the ceasing of communication with staff ain’t great. Would still have him at The Bears, though. He is a good coach.
