At least allow a challenge of ANY call or non-call.

Didn't they try that with PI and it was a miserable failure?

They didn't want to do it and it showed. It never got the chance. If player safety is important (I don't really think it is to the owners except how it affects their "human material") all facemask penalties (or at least the ones everyone sees but the refs) need to be taken care of....

Raiders have fired offensive coordinator Luke Getsy, offensive line coach James Cregg and quarterbacks coach Rich Scangarello, the team announced.

This marks the fourth time in the past five years that the Raiders have switched coordinators or head coaches in the middle of a season.

Another coaching change: Saints have fired head coach Dennis Allen, sources tell ESPN.

Dennis Allen’s tenure as head coach in New Orleans ends after two-plus seasons with an 18-25 record.

New Orleans started this season with a 2-0 record and scored 40+ points in both wins. They have since lost seven straight.

Saints outgained the Panthers by 150+ yards, ran for 150+ yards, and won the turnover battle

Over the last 20 years, teams had gone 275-0 with that formula.

Now 275-1.

And the Bears keep a coach who has lost the locker room and has not won a game on the road (London excepted) since he has been hc ? WTF ARE THEY DOING !.....

There needs to be a deep look into all aspects- coaching, front office and health/weight training. It can't always be bad luck.....

 We could always kill two birds with one stone.

 Hire Rusty Jones who retired from the Colts, as HC & strength coach.

 Nyuk !

 McCaskeys love cost savings.

Maybe they can offset his salary by how much Social Security he gets.... :D

I hear Luke Getsy is available as OC as of today.....

Until the McCaskey curse is lifted, this team will continue to baffle and disappoint......

The real solution is when they decide to hire somebody to coach this team- go in the opposite direction !

So what if Flus looses out the rest of the season. Will the Bears fire him?  By God I hope so.

As far as I'm concerned, he would need to win out to keep his job..

Herbert should do pretty well with the Bengals.

I’m surprised the Cowboys weren’t in on that.

One question in my mind is by trading Herbert did we give up any compensation picks we might have gotten if he left as a free agent?
