By Paul Wanecski Following the 2015 preseason, most fans were scratching their heads on the selection of Ronald Darby. He struggled with locating the ball. He got pushed around in press coverage. He was constantly behind on routes. It appeared as if head coach Rex Ryan would be unable to leave him in man-to-man coverage because he was getting assaulted with targets. Darby and Rex proved everyone wrong during the season. This isn’t just the narrative to Darby’s success; more the story behind Ryan as a head coach.

By Paul Wanecski As the dumpster fire rages on in the front offices of the Cleveland Browns, perineal Pro-Bowl left tackle Joe Thomas is on his perineal “get me the hell out of here” media tour. It is not hard to blame him for feeling this way either; Austin Davis marked the 17th quarterback to take a snap under center since Thomas was drafted third overall in 2007 (the list is located here). 2016 will also usher a new head coach, which would be the 6th person to take the job while Thomas has been in the NFL. |
