Wonder what it would cost them... I'd guess the 49ers first that they got for Chubb.

Fwiw I’ve been told by my friend who works for a prominent agent that rumor is Vrabel is out with a loss today and McVay will be replacing Payton on fox
Man, that seems like it would be a bad decision for Titans unless there are behind the scenes things.
This is his first season below .500
Schrager hinted something about McVay too. Vrabel getting fired after what seemed like him having the juice to get the GM fired would be a surprise.
They’d be dumb to fire Vrabel. Guy is a good coach. If he leaves I think it’s because he wants out.
Apparently ownership feels like he is a pain in the ass to deal with. Anyway we will see.
Indy declined to host AFC Championship, due to a scheduling conflict(per Indy Business Journal)
Maybe the Meadowlands instead? That would at least give Bills fans a chance to travel down.
Meadowlands is close to six hour drive from Buffalo. Cleveland would be closer at about three hours.
My guess would be Vegas.
I mean, it would seem like it would be possible to push that back if it meant hosting the AFCCG. But what do I know?
Also, Mark Davis has offered up the stadium to host, if needed.

No stadium will be needed since the Bengals' fuck you tour is going through Glendale. Yes, I realize this post added a lot.
You would like to choose a neutral site where the inconvenience is equal for both teams, and I'd say the Bills going on essentially a cross-country flight feels more like a road game (nevermind the Chiefs having more experience at that stadium). You'd also take both teams well out of their time zone.
I'd argue playing this in Atlanta (to choose a team definitely out of the playoffs) would be more equal footing for Buffalo and KC.

That would be a pro-Bills crowd, I believe. Which I support. I am in favor of Denver as the site.
One of the best tactical minds in the league. It would be beyond dumb to fire him, which probably means they will.
Man that would be hilarious if Gillette got chosen and the patriots skanked their way to the afcg. That won’t happen and I’m 100 percent sure the league will choose a venue of team that didn’t make playoffs. Detroit or Cleveland seems to be the best options. I’m sure if Pitt doesn’t make the playoffs that will be included into the mix as well.
If you want elements in play as opposed to a dome, which I wouldn't object to with the 2 teams involved constructed to play in the elements, then Chicago is a little more equidistant between the cities?
But that's in a perfect world, and there are probably events, staffing, the ownership vs leasing etc. of each stadium the NFL is looking at. Do the Broncos own their stadium? I believe the Bears are beholden to the city for their stadium.
If the Pats make the afccg they will play on the road and they will have to deal with the flying monkeys.
I was saying Denver in part for the snow, but mostly because they hate the Chiefs.

PFT reporting that Lovie Smith and/or Caserio are likely out in Houston.
With the no.1 pick looming, might make sense to just clean house and start from the beginning.

That's wild. I guess the Titans are blowing it up given that they already canned their GM.
I don’t have that info but he fought hard for that contract extension to go from $8.5m to over $14m. My guess would be it’s mutual with the Rams retaining his rights once he was courted after one year in the booth. Total guess though.
McVay should leave. The Rams are set up horribly for years, which will ruin his golden boy status.
He can go to the booth for a few years, start a family if desired, then come back as a knight on a shining horse into an ideal environment. It’s a no brainer.

Schrager on Simmons's podcast last week really seemed to think McVay was going to leave because he needs a break. His wife is Ukrainian and has lots of family there, so he's dealing with some tough family circumstances as well as the usual rigors of running an NFL team. Seems pretty reasonable to me.
He was literally hired because they got a ton of backlash when it leaked they wanted to hire McCown no matter what, and Flores added them to his racial discrimination lawsuit. Lovie wasn't even in the original list of interviews, it was 100% a PR move to get past the Flores stuff, now they'll interview 3 randoms including 1 minority then hire McCown.
Makes a lot of sense. And no one will remember this season in five years. I could even see him coming back to the Rams after they bottom out and rebuild.
Wasn't McCown an Easterby binkie? I wonder if that ship has sailed.
That would make a ton of sense.
He was a McNair binkie was the word, he was still the pick this offseason even after they pushed Easterby to the back. Lot of good reporters said that McCown had the job until Flores filed suit, and it was decided to wait a year. This was after they hired Culley allegedly with no intention of keeping him past a year. Maybe Caserio convinces McNair otherwise (though not sure Caserio's job is 100% secure) but McNair is going to want McCown.
