This story needs more visibility because of how fucked up it is. Somehow missed this storyline when it happened. Surprisingly really softened me to PG on a week where I've been angry at defense. Maybe it's not the best time to share for that reason but, oh well, I'm riled with anger.

What complete fucking disrespect to just stand-up a guy YOU invited to a SECOND job interview for finalists, left alone and at a restaurant waiting until he figured it out, with 0 follow-up or acknowledgement? Lost so much respect for Jacksonville's owner and front office after reading this. Look, I don't mean to draw lines that maybe aren't there, but I have a hard time believing this would happen in the league to a white candidate. Calling it unprofessional and fucked up don't even do it justice.

Even on a week where I’ve been pissed off about our defense under PG, reading this triggered that “I’m allowed to pick on my brother, but the second a bully at school does it, all hell breaks loose” type of feeling in me lol. I'm naturally rallying hard behind PG now because FUCK THE JAGS AND FUCK SHAHID KHAN

I understand why some fans might feel stingy with their empathy toward PG after the Browns game, so just move along, spare yourself the read and come back another day if that's where you're at right now.

Same story reported by ESPN with more commentary/insight from Graham, hearing his comments on it makes it feel even more fucked up: https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/49384503/inside-nfl-rooney-rule-coach-hiring-process

'I'm a Cowboy': Porter hopes to make debut for Dallas on Sunday

Could at least pretend to have back issues for another day or two.

Not really a reaction to this game, just been thinking about this for a while.

Our defensive star players are pretty old: TJ Watt, Jalen Ramsey are 31, Cam Hayward is 37

Offense is also similar: Arod is 42 in his last season, DK and Pittman are 28 and not that good anymore

This combined with our issues on defense and the oline is worrying. Does the franchise have replacements for these players? Any plan to rebuild? Futures not looking very good. We also had 2 youngsters who seemed like future stars but we traded them to Dallas.

I feel like a rebuild has been needed for many years but has constantly been ignored.

Just wanted to express how done I am with him I have no idea why we aren’t letting the young bucks show us what they can do when all when see out of Aaron is balls held too long or scrambles he tries to do then gets sacked or passes that are nowhere near the intended receiver

I know this game isn’t going the way any of us wanted, but how about Jaylen Warren man? This dude is a textbook Steeler. Been underestimated and under appreciated his entire career, and just gives all he can with every opportunity. If you need to find anything to be happy about in this game, look no further than #30.

He has taken some bad sacks tonight when he should know better to throw it away. I know the receivers aren’t getting open, but he just kept them from getting a chance for three there. This offense has been miserable tonight. Reminds me of the last staff’s stinker games.
