How have we not seen this before?

Nothing in the world is more consistent that a defensive background head coach with a QB problem being completely in the dark about how much its going to limit him. You'd think hard lessons would have been learned about that by now.

Max contract, as first reported by ESPN, worth $108M over 6yrs. Dareus comes off monster year but has been a problem in past. Huge $ for him

Geez, I wonder if he's related to former University of Michigan coach Gary Moeller, who was fired supposedly because of a drunken incident at a restaurant.

But he finished 8-4 that season. Had they gone 11-1, he'd probably still be the coach.

Technically, this isn't the offseason, but still, not worth another thread and no one want to read a thread about Brady anymore.

Random testing with balls taken out of play and replaced with backups at halftime. What are the larger goal?

1. Obviously monitoring for tampering during the game (they League probably is not going to lose the balls pregame anymore (http://operations.nfl.com/updates/th...-for-nfl-games).

2. Measure enough and you could get very good data on natural deflation under game conditions.

3. Remove them from play and secure them. For later inspection?

Kinda curious why they don't take a few at the end of the game as well. Also, if they are trying to generate some actual results from inflation patterns, why not announce that?

But most importantly, what is the competitive advantage here? Why worry about this? Doubt its the QB's passing. Despite a previous paper on the subject of Patriots low fumble rates getting shredded by blogs for some simple errors, does the League believe the Patriots fumble less because of the PSI?

Microsoft paid the NFL $400M to use its tablets, and announcers are still calling them iPads http://read.bi/1ETfUUP

Situation between Colts and Chuck Pagano looking more and more like 49ers scenario w/Harbaugh from a year ago: http://www.cbssports.com/nfl/writer/...colts-gm-grows …

I don't know who will get the Colts job, or even if it will be open. But I do know Nick Saban will get a raise and Bret Bielema will write a letter to Jim Irsay and Ryan Grigson.
