Just in case you still want to debate with me about whose NFL team has the worst situation:

It's so odd. Just 5 days ago the GM said he plans on Myles going from Cleveland straight to Canton. Myles just got back from the Pro-Bowl i'm sure he was talking to lots of guys there and they told him to GTFO.
Did Berry even consult Myles before he made that statement?? Full on fire sale in Cleveland now.

Funny thing to me about that is, and I'm no expert on NFL stats so I could be wrong, but I'd guess about 70% of the people saying that to him will never win a super bowl either.
I do understand that sentiment of Cleveland being NFL Siberia, no doubt it is. But it's not like they've been absolute shit. Hell, they were in the playoffs just last year and they have more playoff wins than the Steelers over the last 10 years. (hehe, sorry Leisher i know, cheap shot)
Joe Thomas, by many considered the best LT in the NFL while he played, spent his whole 11 years on a team that never even sniffed the playoffs.
This is all about the Waston trade, it totally derailed anything that the Browns had built up. Fuck that guy

It's not cheap when it's the truth!

Depending on his salary, I wouldn't mind seeing him in Pittsburgh.

You know who'd be a great fit for Miles? The Commanders.
Just saying'.

Commanders have so many needs.
Most teams do, which is why the salary cap exists.
However, D is their biggest need and Miles would be a great piece.

Every single time someone references a list or makes a joke like yours in the context of sports, my mind goes right here:

Over 25 seasons from 2000 through 2024, an AP count shows, 31 of 173 new NFL coaches (18%) are Black.
But (different source)
Black: 11.7% of adults identify as Black or African American, non-Hispanic
Also...
The 2024 season began with seven Black head coaches: holdovers Mike McDaniel of the Dolphins, Todd Bowles of the Buccaneers, DeMeco Ryans of the Texans and Mike Tomlin of the Steelers and newcomers Antonio Pierce of the Raiders (interim coach in 2023), Jerod Mayo of the Patriots and Raheem Morris of the Falcons.
While it is painfully obvious that black people have been passed over for HC jobs, I've never bought the narratives that it wasn't enough or that it was always racism driven.
Has racism played a role? Among 80 year old white men? Are you joking?
However, it's the "old boys network" more than anything. Point being, it's not the color of your skin, but who you know.

Whitest black guy ever?
Michael Jackson? Eminem? Me?
But seriously, I had no idea he was black. I swear on everything holy, I thought he was just Jewish.
