Eli Manning is not even in the HOF conversation. Wonder when they'd call it with Eli, what draft would that send ripples from when they took a QB. Wonder how much love Spags gets if they don't win, take the "shut down the best team" off his resume and maybe he doesn't get a job in 2009 does he get the Rams job? If the Rams get a coach that makes it work, what's their 2010s look like? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think the Giants would be playing with Daniel Jones tomorrow night because Eli would have been canned along with Coughlin much sooner. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danger Posted October 11, 2019 Author Share Posted October 11, 2019 (edited) I have 9 what if scenarios laid out in front of me for the next 9 weeks (I'm trying to avoid low hanging fruit of making a lot of "What if this guy was picked instead of that guy", but I do have one of that sort). I'd also like to hear what ideas you guys have for what if scenarios. Edited October 11, 2019 by Danger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd also like to hear what ideas you guys have for what if scenarios. I was actually talking about this one with a a friend the other day - what if Payton/Parcells pull the trigger on the Romo trade? After being hired as HC from the Dallas staff, Sean Payton wanted to take Romo with him and make him the starter. They offered Dallas a 3rd for him, but Parcells wanted to keep him. If that trade happens, no Romo takeover in Dallas. No botched hold against the Seahawks (Dallas almost certainly don’t make the POS that year), no 13-3 in 2007...on and on. The other side is that means no Brees in NO, so maybe no ring in 2009. Where does Brees go? Miami? It goes on and on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(There were a couple before the season started and I really liked the idea). What if Nate Poole doesn't catch the pass in Week 17 of the 2003 season, knocking the Vikings out?

The Hitch Posted October 12, 2019 Share Posted October 12, 2019 On 10/9/2019 at 2:18 AM, nextsuperstar1 said: Ok. Butterfly effect. The schedules slightly different so different outcomes occur. Randy Moss, Welker and Brady have slightly better career numbers, Matt Cassel is never given the chance to start. My point remains valid, that catch didn’t change the direction of the league. As far as the butterfly effect goes, even something as small as the Pats picking 32nd instead of 31 would probably have totally changed the course of the league within a few years. I would venture to say that none of the current pro bowl players outside of qb in the league, would be playing at the teams we associate them with. If Tyree hadn't made the catch. Everything would have been totally different Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's next are you going to blame Larry Fitzgerald for the Cards not winning a Super Bowl? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am trying to explain the TO always seemed to come up small when the Cowboys needed him to come up big.He didn't lose games like Fasano and Glenn. He just didn't win games like Irvin did. TO made about one great game winning TD catch in his career. 2 hours ago, Danger said: What's next are you going to blame Larry Fitzgerald for the Cards not winning a Super Bowl? That question I do not understand at all. Stealers won that game because the refs suddenly went blind on one of the most blatant clips in NFL history.
