NBA OFF TOPIC THREAD

Well if that's the case the D has done a terrible job of stepping up this season.

Beating the Ravens seems like asking a lot. It would be nice if the Browns can put everything together next weekend and have a good game.

It does but as I said I'd guarantee the fans of a team who has now blown leads of 10, 17 and 17 don't think they have much of a shot going forward against anyone.

someone has to win I guess.

I was hoping for a 6-5 record after 11 games. That ain't happening now. The D. What's wrong, is it the DC? I didn't think they'd be this bad.

Which seemed realistically but they threw away 2 or 3 games. I would say 2, Jets and Chargers. Worst case right now should be 4-2 but maybe this is better for the long-term. I don’t want Woods back and if they perform well he might get another chance. Stefanski will not fire him at this point, he better think about it or he could be on his way as well. It’s a possibility if they keep losing games the way they have

I was really optimistic about the D this season. Can't properly judge the offense right now as we have a journeyman back up for a QB. Just gonna look at '22 as a lost season.

Things aren't clicking on both side of the ball and I don't see a magical cure for the problems.

For a 6th and 7th rounder.

Dodgers to bring back Dave Roberts in 2023, per sources, but other questions remain

The news should not come as a surprise. No manager who has lasted as long as Roberts has ever won games at a higher clip.

Yup Hollywood Brown may be out awhile.

Hopkins back.....Anderson is a decent replacement for Brown.

I can’t believe Kingsbury hasn’t been fired today. His record there about the same losing record he had at Texas Tech.

Think he gets fired after the season if they don't make the playoffs or get bounced early.

Yeah, saw that. Not happy.

Hard to get rid of a guy when they won so many games.

Something ain’t right out there

2 more questionable roughing penalties tonight, it’s out of control

Man, the Donkos suck at scoring...

Not when they constantly underachieve in the playoffs.

Anyone else find if funny that Dodgers manager Dave Roberts guaranteed L.A. would win the W.S. this season?

Silly fella. Guarantees only worked for the Showtime Lakers.

Yeah, odds are comments like that will age poorly. While I think the series should be 7 games not 5, no guarantee they beat the Padres in 7 either. Can only keep a team down so long.

From the "duh" section of internet, lol. Firing a head coach after 111 wins would be unusual to say the last.

Dodgers need to find a closer (and likely a replacement for Trea Turner if he walks as rumored). The rotation should be solid with Buehler/Urias/May/Gonsolin and whomever of Kershaw/Heaney/Anderson returns.
