NFL Discussion Thread. (SPOILERS)

Honestly have no idea how Jeff Fisher still sticks around. There has got to be better head coaches around for the Rams?
 
He has to be hanging by a thread, to be honest I think the move is the only thing keeping him there, they're probably trying to keep some sort of stability... Things might change in the next week or so though as decision are finally made about the moves...
 

wow...
 
Geez, some people just need to mind their own business when it comes to this sort of thing...what they do is up to them, no one else knows the situation and it's really no one else's concern. And who's to say it isn't the mother who doesn't want to marry anyway ?
 
Yeah some people have no idea! I bet these would be the first people to quote their amendments about it being "their right" if the situation (or something similar) was reversed too.
 
That's some real US Bible Belt town thinking there. I bet a lot more people would be thinking the same as what those two wrote.
 
Chargers have first option to join and a year to make the decision. After that Raiders have the option to join. Wouldn't surprise me if Chargers cave in and join because they seem pretty set to leave San Diego also.
 
Depends on whether they think $100 million is a big enough incentive to stay put I suppose...

Plus they have to work out something with Rams owner Kroenke...and he doesn't play nice with others...so it might be tough!
 
From what I have seen, the Raiders get the $100 mil regardless for withdrawing from the relocation which allowed the Rams to be able to make the move (at least that is what I am seeing on some Raider sites).

I think that is why the Chargers owner wanted to stay as a combo with the Raiders and Mark Davis, because Kroenke doesn't see the second team as an equal partner and rather just a team leasing the stadium from him.
 
A couple tweets I have seen on a Raiders site (no idea how to post the actual tweets):

"What does a $100M incentive to the Raiders & Chargers to stay in their home markets mean? They'll each get $250M in national TV $ this year"

"Mark Davis where he’ll be in 2016 "I don’t know where we’ll be. My lease at the Coliseum is expired… America, the world, is possibility."

"Mark davis' "this is not a win for the Raiders today... We'll see where the raider nation ends up here. We're looking for a home."
 
Didn't understand why one of the biggest cities in the States didn't have an NFL Franchise.
But they have one now!

Every time they have had one (or two) they have struggled to fill seats. LA seems to be less about football and more about Basketball.
 
Yep. L.A. Fans are a fickle bunch and have always supported their NFL teams very poorly...

Remains to be seen how the Rams or any other team will do now though....especially if they're not performing as the media scrutiny will be intense!

Do you think Fisher could be on the firing block now? New city, new coach, new start?
