First overseas BGO tailgate? Might have to happen in 2025…

Let’s speak it in to existence…in September or October. I’m not sure when the international games traditionally take place though. Last season all but 1 were prior to November. 🤞

Me either but it’s a fun idea

I can fly roundtrip to Berlin in Sept/Oct for $185. 🙂

They would be lucky to have him. But knowing the Jets, they'll eff it up here too...

That would be a loss but he deserves the opportunity. He’s been at it a long time.

I think one of the big lessons of the Snyder years is that the title isn't the end all. To get that dream job at a nightmare organization... that dream'll get old real soon. For this reason (and because he played previously with poor ownership) I think Kingsbury won't be quick to jump. Likewise, I can see Newmark leaving, but I think he better think about it very carefully. There's a reason the Jets have been awful for most of fifty years.

I've had the unfortunate experience of having an amazing job at a horrible place. I'm sure many of you have too. While I don't know that I would trade the memories I would think twice if I had to do it again.

Saw this posted on reddit and thought I'd share it here. Interesting read:

Inside Dan Quinn's total transformation of the Washington Commanders

How did a laughingstock of a franchise become a contender overnight? Jayden Daniels is the catalyst, of course. But the head coach was also a grand-slam hire. His unorthodox approach is paying off.

Great read. In the end it starts at the top with people. This franchise was never gonna win again under DS. Once he was gone, it allows people like DQ to truly change the culture and flourish.

I would prefer to be eaten by a shark than go to the Jets as GM knowing the owner is the actual GM and will do whatever he wants.

If I’m Lance, I thank them nicely and run quickly and wait for a better opportunity

I believe we are rumored to be 'up' for an overseas game. I heard the most likely spots would be Berlin or Madrid. I am hoping if we do get scheduled for one that it's in Berlin since my daughter is there and Om is as well. That would be an epic road trip.

Hopefully it counts as an away game vs a home one.

Miami next year!

For click bait haters, feel free to disregard

Just going to pick a nit with this one. The Washington Commanders have never won a playoff game. The last team from the Washington franchise to get to the playoffs was The Washington Football Team in 2020. That 2005 team? That was the Washington Redskins. Just sayin'.

Are we going to level up in Trench Warfare as the Baltimore Ravens did with the Steelers? I don't get how the Steelers had such a balanced attack early in the year and good run D then just look like JV against the Baltimore Ravens, despite knowing the formula to stop Baltimore in January.

Let's reschedule today's game to 1pm EST. I don't feel like waiting.

:nervous: :excited: :impatient:

Kind of a suspect report from Schefty. Kingsbury has “two interview requests that he can take” with New Orleans and Chicago. Seems pretty weak.

^^^ Just saw that...

NOOOOOO!!!
