Shane Steichen should be the NFL Coach of the Year

Shane Steichen is coach of the year. That touchdown play, the Michael Pittman touchdown where they ran a fake rub route was like so perfectly—I'd have to imagine they had run that rub route a bunch of times and then to save the fake for that exact moment was ran to perfection.

Kevin Stefanski won the 2023 AP NFL Coach of the Year award, though Steichen finished high in the voting (runner-up).

The Saints should let their offense run through Taysom Hill all the time.

They should just let that offense run through Taysom Hill all the time. There's nobody like him in the NFL. He seems to be effective at moving the chains. The offense is something that like, you can't really prepare for that well.

The Saints continued to split time between Derek Carr and Hill, never fully committing to Hill as the primary engine of the offense.

The Saints need to blow everything up and reset their franchise

The Saints just have to admit that they suck and they have to start blowing everything up because the Saints have been doing this for, it started at the end of the Brees era and it's been going on ever since where they just continually kick the can down the road. The Saints are $71 million over the cap next year. I don't even know how that's possible. Why wouldn't they just start trading people? Start cutting, start trading, just reset everything. If you're a Saints fan, you have to want a fresh restart.

Subjective opinion on roster management, though the Saints notably did NOT blow it up and continued to restructure contracts for 2024.

Making the playoffs as the NFC South representative would be the worst thing for the Saints long-term.

The worst thing that could happen to the Saints is they somehow get into the playoffs as the NFC South representative, lose a game and then they can tell themselves, oh we were, we were pretty close. We were a playoff team. Like, you just gotta hit reset on everything.

The Saints finished 9-8 and missed the playoffs anyway, and did not 'reset' their roster or coaching staff significantly in the following offseason.

Spain is entering a period of absolute soccer dominance and will win the next Euro.

They won the Euro two years ago. They won the World Cup. They're probably gonna win the Euro in two years. They're just different generation dominating soccer.

Euro 2028 has not happened yet.

Goals scored in the World Cup third-place game should not count toward the Golden Boot.

I also had one bone to pick. The third place game, which is hilarious that they still do this... The fact that those goals count for the Golden Boot is such bullshit. That's stupid. That should not count. Like that's not a real game.

This is a subjective opinion about tournament rules.

LeBron James will announce his free agency decision tonight.

I'm fully expecting him to announce at 9:00 PM tonight. Yep. Like shit like that where it's like, I went to a movie on Thursday night. I was like, oh, LeBron's gonna fucking announce during the movie. He's, he's now fucking us... I think that's what's gonna happen. I think he's gonna decide tonight.

Depends on exactly when LeBron actually announced his decision following this episode.
