cross-posted from MNF/Christianity Argument thread:
In all fairness to Singletary & Martz, Joe Gibbs ****ed up a two-minute drill (or at least had his noob QB poorly prepared) last year that, when you consider: HOF coach, three rings w/three different QBs, and now he has a rookie QB and plenty of time & TOs, was much worse than this.
Somebody needs to start a business that designs tests with thirty to forty "real-time" scenarios that coaches, GMs, big-ticket FAs, top-three draft picks, etc for each sport need to have as automatic knowledge under stress, for potential hires/signees/draftees. Get Bill James, Nate Silver, FBOutsiders, 82games, etc on it. Could make a fortune. Just need some desperate whale like Jerry Jones or Hank Love Hewittbrenner to throw ya a mil seed money and you'd be off and running.
