On Monday night, Denise released several disturbing text messages from Miller on her Instagram page where he allegedly told her he prayed for her miscarriage while she was pregnant.

...check out the messages at the link. What a terrible person.

Reads like angry breakup messages.

 

[Blitzkrug]

That's a yikes from me dawg. Angry breakup or not, that's some reprehensible shit to say to someone.

I'm sure as part of the interview process, he'd have to have names of the people that he wants. OC/DC/QB coach would be the main ones. If he can get some position coaches as well, that would help, but those are the main 3 that any coaching candidate needs.

Always wonder for a DC/OC it's easy to figure out who they would want on their side of the ball. But, how do they figure out the other side of the ball. Rookie McVay got Phillips to be his DC. Did they have a prior relationship?

Potentially interesting stuff going on in Miami.

No one tell the Texans. Just in case

Who drafted Tua? Is it the current GM/coach?

 

[John Price]

Lot of speculation about Russell Wilson since he usually doesn't give end of the year press conferences

Who drafted Tua? Is it the current GM/coach?

Yes, and they both insist they are committed fully to Tua.......we shall see.

It would actually make them look very dumb is they moved away after one year. Unless they get Deshaun Watson for him.

Jesus must have told him to.

Just someone making a nothingburger out of nothing.

Wilson stated that he wanted input into the next OC hiring.

I think I actually prefer that he has some say in who they choose.

Think Russ isn’t looking for an OC to help him win an MVP. Should be aiming for someone to help them win in the playoffs.

with Schotty, they ended up not being able to run vs Dallas, lost to GB because they again couldn’t run in the first half and ran out of time at the end and because they didn’t go for it on 4th and 10 at mid field. Then lost vs Rams again because they could run the ball or so much in the passing game against a great DL.

Should not be an issue for a run heavy OC. But need some creativity in the pass game. Have to scheme better for easier completions.

He been hanging out with Evander Kane?

Would be wild if EB doesn't land one of the jobs out there again. As a Chiefs fan I'm happy for him to stick around but really expected the team to lose him this offseason (if he indeed does get passed over again).

His best shot right now is with the Eagles as they are not as far along in their process. No one can talk to him again until the Chiefs are done. It's not something that's stopped teams from hiring guys on playoff teams in the past, and certainly shouldn't be stopping him, but access is important and teams want to have their staffs installed as soon as possible - in some cases in lieu of hiring better candidates such when the 49ers hired Kyle Shanahan (which came after the 49ers waited until the week before to hire John Lynch).

That's like, last year someone should've hired Robert Saleh, but teams decided they couldn't enough access to him so they opted to move on. Now the 49ers have a down year and everyone gets to talk to him.

Just tells you how dumb the process is.

I can kinda see it. With Bieniemy there's the question of how much of it is his scheme or the juggernaut of a personnel group he has to work with? And then there's his not too pleasant past as well.

Wouldn't be surprised if Houston just hands him the job out of panic of Watson really wanting out

Yeah, he f***ed up a lot when he was younger, but that’s all 20+ years in the past at this point. Not that it’s less valid or should be shrugged off but organizations bring in guys with checkered pasts all the time. I guess my response is that there’s an element of uncertainty when hiring any assistant. Of course EB benefits from having Mahomes, Kelce, etc. and Reid having a say too. But he’s a big part of the creative scheme and offensive gameplans they feature. I’m not saying he’ll be a sure fire success as a HC, I’m just surprised no organization is at least willing to give him a shot.
