I do not agree with a lot of things the NFL does Drew Sample Jersey , but shifting the game to a quarterback driven league was the smart thing to do. There is nothing more entertaining then watching two great quarterbacks try and out-duel each other. I know it has made the game harder for defenders, but that is just how it is going to be from this point on.There are many examples of how the NFL has become a quarterback driven league. For starters, it is easier for quarterbacks to put up bigger numbers, which can be seen in the 5,000 yard passing seasons we see from some players on a regular basis. In addition, quarterbacks are more protected today than they ever have been (although Cam Newton may have something to say about that). Finally, the NFL has also adjusted rules making it harder for defenders. Defenders are not allowed to be as physical as they once were and sometimes they get flagged for plays that would never been flagged in the old days (these are just some of the reasons why I hate comparing quarterbacks from different eras Germaine Pratt Jersey , but that is a story for another day).All of these rule changes and a "quarterback's game" should mean that we are seeing great play at the position, right? Well, in some cases we are, but that does not mean we have not seen our fair share of bad play at the position. There are still greats like Tom Brady, Aaron Rodgers, and Drew Brees. We are also seeing new talent emerge such as Derek Carr and Dak Prescott. Then of course we are seeing struggling quarterbacks like Brock Osweiler. Well, who is the best?

Pitching coach Chris Bosio said Thursday he was fired by the Detroit Tigers for using the word ”monkey,” but insists he didn’t say it in a racial or demeaning context.
Bosio told USA Today he used the word while talking about pitcher Daniel Stumpf, who is white. Bosio said Stumpf is nicknamed ”Spider Monkey” because of the faces he makes while lifting weights.
Bosio said an African-American clubhouse attendant overheard the conversation. Bosio told USA Today that ”the kid thought we were talking about him. He got all upset. He assumed we were talking about him. I said, `No, no, no. We’re talking about Stumpf.”’
”I swear on my mom and dad’s graves, there was nothing else to it Renell Wren Jersey ,” he told the newspaper.
General manager Al Avila said Wednesday that Bosio was fired for making insensitive comments to another team employee. Avila declined to offer additional details.
”I have to take seriously what the comments were,” Avila said. ”And, the action we took was appropriate.”
Bosio told USA Today that he was ”crushed” about his firing. Bosio said he plans to hire an attorney to help determine whether to sue for wrongful termination.
Bosio was in his first season as Detroit’s pitching coach after serving in the same role for six years with the Chicago Cubs. The Cubs didn’t renew Bosio’s contract after last season and hired Jim Hickey to replace him. The 55-year-old Bosio was 94-93 over an 11-season major league career, mostly as a starter, with Milwaukee and Seattle.
The Tigers promoted bullpen coach Rick Anderson to replace Bosio. Roving pitching instructor A.J. Sager will be the team’s bullpen coach until Triple-A Toledo pitching coach Jeff Pico takes his place next week.
