Irishman

There was more to the story behind him saying that. Not a fan of it necessarily, but the anger was justified.

How would George Halas have handled winning that game? How would Vince Lombardi have handled winning that game? The pro wrestling comment was about the hype around it being fake because it's all scripted. The Mike Leach comparison does not fit. He never said F ________________________ when his teams beat them. Jimmy Johnson was a pretty confident and even more outspoken coach....never said about his bitter rivals. I have no issue with Johnson being excited about the win; just takes things too far. But it's obvious he hit with his target audience. Most Coaches understand what goes around comes around.

This is insane

Ryan Clark was asked on the pregame show what it was like to play for Mike Tomlin on a stage like this, and he said the same he was on week 1. They were down 21-7 in a playoff game, and instead of focusing on mistakes, Tomlin calmly said, this comeback is going to be epic. Watch this locker room when we come back. I am willing to bet he never once said F the Ravens or other rivals. Same with John Harbaugh about their rivals. Cameras were all over the Cowboys locker rooms when Jimmy Johnson coached. Never once did you hear him say F the Eagles, Giants, or Redskins. In fact it was always How about them Cowboys! Celebrate your team instead of MFing the opponents.

This is sad for Fleeger. Hopefully he loses his job for this. How pathetic to tell police on the scene he had to be told who Freeman was. Anyone in that part of the state is going to know who Freeman is.

Yep, and Ohio State

I don’t buy it that the only difference between now and then is cameras in the locker room. On two separate occasions Papa Bear saved the Green Bay franchise. Did he want to beat Lambeau and Lombardi? No question about it. Maybe he did say f them in the locker room or meeting rooms. I don’t buy it. Maybe the cameras being there is the difference, but Johnson knew they were there. We all know in this game you have your time on top and you have your time of getting taken to the wood shed. Handle the moment better and with more class. Johnson referred to all the chirping he heard from the Packers…..players? Fans? Maybe. But never from the coaches. Johnson has a hard on for LaFleur for god knows what reason. This isn’t pro wrestling.

Highest paid special teams coordinator in the league:

3rd commitment: 4th one

My HOPE is they low ball him and they agree to part ways. Then maybe work out a trade to regain some picks they have lost in recent years, including a first round pick this year. My bottom line is LaFleur is not the guy to get them to a Super Bowl. He is a decent play caller, but a horrible game manager. I will be disappointed if he agrees to an extension.

Fair point 🙂

Good to see this.

And another....seems like ND started late on portal offers.

Notre Dame's first portal commitment. I know folks around this part of the State were hoping they would get a different WR from Ohio State that came from the area. This is a great catch

I will take speed on defense as there is a point where an OL can be too big. I think we saw too in the Ole Miss game, they were wearing down as the game went on.

Kittle looked like he blew his achilles. Had that snap similar to Rodgers and Tyrese Haliburton...Hate seeing anyone deal with that.

Welllll, 2/3 😂

I hope this works out for him, but man, to be in 4 programs in 4 years is a bit much. I would like to see restrictions on how often you can use the portal put in place.

Other wild card games have been good games to watch, with teams trading scores. Rooting for the Bills to finally win it all now.

Yep took a deeper dive to see if there was something in his background. Nothing there. Grew up in South Carolina. Went to Boston College. I am guessing he wanted to fire up the Bears fans with his comment, but should have said beating the Packers twice a year. No clue why he chose to say LaFleur instead of Green Bay.

Not sure. My best guess was when Johnson was named head coach, he said one thing he enjoyed doing was beating Matt LaFleur twice a year. LaFleur responded as though he did not even know the guy. The handshakes have always been quick. Looked like Johnson had some things to say as he approached LaFleur before the handshake last night.

There should be several people along with him. Nixon should be gone too. This along with the absolutely STUPID personal foul he got earlier in the game.

While the Packers deserved to lose, this is something George Halas would have never said, or as an owner, allow his coach to say. Appreciate the rivalry and the intensity that comes with it, but be better Ben. https://www.facebook.com/reel/1485263446672466/?fs=e&fs=e

I would add In the Denver game and last night, they had a chance to extend those leads and put the game out of reach, and failed to do so.
