    Yeah, didn't check to see if that strategy was employed across the league but figured it was probably done.
    It's almost as if all his overconfident, absolutist assertions were spoonfed to him by a trusted website or subreddit. Sheeple

      Cowboys don't open against Giants, which has become the norm.

        Has anyone seen this? Proposed changes to Rooney Rules:

        Hire a minority head coach and move up six spots in 3rd round of draft after his second season
        Move up 10 spots if hire minority as GM
        Hire minority for both HC and GM in same year move up 16 spots
        After coach or GM third year move up five spots in 4th round
        If minority asst. leaves for another team to be a coordinator get a 5th round compensatory pick
        If they go to be HC or GM previous team gets 3rd round compensatory pick

        There are a couple of other ones but those are the main proposals.

        Or maybe they could just enforce the Rooney Rules!

          The other proposal I saw was to double the requirement of the Rooney rule. Instead of only requiring 1 minority interview, require 2.

        It's a slap in the face to people of color. Big daddy billionaires will make everything OK for you poor black folk, but only with an incentive. Pathetic.

        Saw Louis Riddick (ex-player, ex-NFL exec, current ESPN reporter) last night and he was not happy:

        Louis Riddick expresses his disappointment in the NFL's proposal to offer draft picks for minority hiring.


        Mike Wilbon basically echoed that, saying: "What is this, 1947? Jackie Robinson was 73 years ago."

        Everyone knows the Rooney Rule is a joke, but this condescending BS is not how to fix it. Better to just straight-up admit that the teams are run by racist billionaires who got where they are through white privilege and most of them literally can't conceive of any other way to operate.

          Pat Mahomes, half a billion for 10 more years in KC. Biggest sports contract ever -- and it's far from a done deal that the NFL will actually play this year.

          Amazing.

            he's a no talent ass clown
            the nfl is a perverted voyeuristic crime to watch other humans urinate and defecate
            much like every public and private establishment

            what a whole ****ing perverted country of creeps
            a piss party

            they need oxygen
            buncha out of shape losers
            beating their brains in
            for the pleasure of a stupid evil nation

            the nfl for prison
            To us, it is the BEAST.

                  Not bad. Lots of fertile ground here. Other suggestions: Washington Corruption; Washington Swamp Monsters; Washington Lobbyists.

                  All suitably scary and intimidating to their opponents...

                    Looks like (per Bob Costas) they are going with Washington Red Tails.

                    Actually, a pretty solid choice, pro-military and pro-Black, paying tribute to WW2 airmen from Tuskegee Institute.

                      If Redskins are going to change, I like this

                      "Jonathan Nez, who is the Navajo Nation president, offered up a suggestion: the "Washington Code Talkers."

                        R.I.P. Gale Sayers. One of the best RB's of all time who had his career cut short. I was at the six touchdown game and also the one where he got injured. He was so much fun to watch!

                          Got to see him, post-injury, in Wrigley Field, 1969, sharing backfield duties with Brian Piccolo. He still put up over 100 yards rushing with 2 TDs.

                          RIP to one of the true greats.

                            Serious question: Why TF don't the Cowboys sign Kaepernick?
                            They're just a competent QB away from the playoffs. I see it as low-cost, low-risk, high upside. And I imagine the fans are desperate enough to put up with it so the PR hit would be minimal.
                            IMHO.

                              Jerry Jones quickly became a meme during the Cowboys-Eagles 'SNF' game

                              The Eagles were ahaead 7-6 lead late in the second quarter when NBC caught this picture of Jones


                              And the memes piled on
                              "I'm getting too old for this s****"
                              "Jerry Jones just looked at the early vote numbers for Texas"
                              "when you pass on DK Metcalf to draft JJ Arcega-Whitside"
                              "The game is so boring, he is drinking coffee to stay awake"
                              "Jerry about to to try to sign his grandson off the high school squad"
                              "Me thinking of Dougs play calling this half"

                              Keep on Civin'
                              RIP rah, Tony Bogey & Baron O
