Is this even a thing lol? Tomlin is a top 5 coach easy.

I’d go:

1. Bill
2. Reid
3. Payton
4. Tomlin
5. McVay

If you google Top NFL Coaches you’ll see Tomlin in the top 4-7 in every single one. Highly regarded HC around the league for sure.

Yeah it is a THING. Dude ain't getting no blank check from 28-30 organizations. He definitely isn't a future HOFer and if he does get in it will be for winning a SB that he had little to nothing in building. He surrounded himself with good assistants and when they left his success left too. Tomlin has lost more games he should have won in the playoffs than most. He has an 8-8 playoff record, 4 of those losses were when his team was the higher seed and another was to Tim Tebow's 8-8 Broncos.

You ******* right it's a THING. Not the THING you wanna hear/see.

Prediction: If the Cowboys clinch the division in these early games they will get curb stomped by the Skins tonight.

I've been upping my likes for you lately, but I just can't on this.

Spare me. I've lived in the area long enough. The Eagles and their fan base are fixated on the Dallas Cowboys whereas the average Cowboys fan who hasn't lived in the Philadelphia area considers them just another division rival.

I'm not the average Cowboys fan. I've been immersed in the Philly hate all of my life. So I put much more of an emphasis of throttling that POS team than the others do.

This is so true. The first thing that Eagles fans did when Hurts made the pro bowl was to mention Dak, they also chant "Dallas Sucks" before games where the Eagles are even going against the Cowboys. Philly fans are always making beating Dallas one of their top priorities for every season. And they have "Dallas Week."

They aren’t letting Tomlin go. He’d be hired within seconds with a blank check from 28-30 different organizations. One of the best coaches in the game today and a future HOFer.

i agree. I wasn’t a believer for a long time but he’s made a lot of marginal teams competitive to where they’ve almost never been irrelevant, even with Ben out for long stretches. I’d take him in a heartbeat.

LOL at linking to opinion pieces instead of FACTS like I did!! You can take them opinion pieces and stick them you know where.

He might be one and for the reason that I said. He has a Super Bowl but he doesn't have anything else to go with it. He'll be one of those HOF coaches that gets in 30 years after he retires or some bs like that. You act like he'll get in the moment he retires lol.

I gave you the stats THAT MATTERED bud. He underachieves in the playoffs a lot.

You guys keep saying that, yet there’s many times more eagles threads on this board than I ever see Dallas threads on ours. Don’t take my word for it, see for yourself. Start counting, it’s actually pretty nuts. Some days, it’s 2-3 per page, 3, 4, 5 pages back.

When Dak gets a new contract, someone will add a comment in the “Dallas” thread there. When Carson got his, that got a thread. Then a thread talking about if the eagles would pay that to Dak. Then a thread asking if Carson earned it more than Dak. Then a thread saying it was a bad deal. Then Risen made a thread saying we got a steal.

I’m not saying it’s you, but you know there are some weird ones here. Eagles fans are usually more than happy to not bring up Dallas.

Maybe the mods there keep deleting any Dallas threads.
:laugh:

Sure bro. Now he’s gonna get in just not right away lol. Didn’t think this would be so personal for you lol you seem heated.

Maybe your brother was in line for the job and Mike took it or something lol.

Look at the playoff records of everyone not named Belichek. Very few have won or been to multiple SB’s. Sean Payton’s been to one lol. Andy Reid was Mr. Choke artist until Mahomes came around. There are no dynastic franchises anymore man. Getting to and winning multiple playoff games makes you a top coach in today’s NFL where parity is king.

If you respond, try to be a normal dude instead of getting emotional. Not that serious of a topic for you to be this worked up. All caps and exclamation points lol get ahold of yourself man.
 
This will be an unpopular point of view, I'm certain, but my opinion is all stadiums should be domed. The leather helmet days where players did no off season work was an era gone by.

The advantage a team like Green Bay has in their frozen tundra takes away from the beauty of this game when outside influences are giving one team more of an edge. Teams would still have the crowd noise, but frigid temperatures and wind effecting passes and kicks, along with precipitation are ridiculous in this era of finely tuned athletes, whose skill set could be diminished by weather.

it should be enough the league futzes with the game to give an offensive advantage. Now toss in a blizzard and how much of an edge should one team enjoy over another?

JMO.

Once again who gives a crap. Not helping him win games that he needs to win to make the playoffs and win in them.

I guess being in his second year and his offensive line is still coming together makes no difference.
Mldardy let’s talk in a couple more years
