Welp. That’s one way to do it. Congrats @VernonDavis85 on an incredible career. He says he’s retired in this spot with Gronk. https://t.co/NqgWpTsJKd

Vernon Davis just announced his retirement live on Fox. One of the best tight ends this millennium, and a very productive late career Redskin.

— Redskins Realm (@SkinsRealm) February 2, 2020

Congrats to Vernon Davis on retirement. Went from looking done in 2015 w/ Broncos to having 122 receptions & 8 touchdowns & averaging 14.1 yards per catch over 50 games w/ #Redskins. Was especially good in 2016 & 2017. And his last TD may’ve been his best. pic.twitter.com/M9J6M3HLYE

Congratulations on a career well played, VD.

Andy Reid was a retread once. Rivera is one now … and he's a branch of Reid's coaching tree. Dare I dream again? https://t.co/e7CTWQJyyf pic.twitter.com/rqKYKd7PQE

andy reid only has three (out of 21) losing seasons in his career as a head coach. his teams have won at least 10 games a year 14 times and he hasn't won fewer than 10 games since 2014.

pretty good.

Greg Olsen will become a free agent on Monday, per league sources.
And he will have choices.
Will it be football or the booth for the Panthers’ soon-to-be former TE?https://t.co/FSDM5nHNYp

Report: Greg Olsen interested in playing for Ron Rivera in Washington https://t.co/AdghLOx2gc

— ProFootballTalk (@ProFootballTalk) February 2, 2020

I don’t think Olsen is the long term answer

I also don’t think signing Olsen would prevent us from finding a long term solution too

One nugget from SB week: Reps of Drew Brees have had exploratory talks with network TV execs to gauge interest in a future broadcasting career. Strictly fact-finding at this point, but the interest appears to be genuine. If/when Brees tries the booth, he will be a hot commodity.

49ers’ passing game coordinator Mike LaFleur, who was working on an expiring contract and had been wanted in Green Bay to join his brother Matt, signed a contract extension this postseason with SF, per league source. Now LaFleur isn’t going anywhere; he’s remaining with 49ers.

Ok so now the flip side: hard to beat teams with so many playmakers. So to sum up: the Skins need to add a possible elite pass rusher, then several explosive players on offense. That is all.

Shanahan will get eviscerated as is typically the case when your team melts down. People will forget the TD he designed/called QB missed thay would've taken lead after. But he deserves some blame for sure. So does JimmyG. So does SF's defense after collapsing in the 4th.

— Grant Paulsen (@granthpaulsen) February 3, 2020

In the end, Jimmy G couldn’t get it done. But the real culprit here is Kyle SHANAHAN. From being the Off. Coordinator with a 28-3 lead in 2016, then the head coach for this Super Bowl, he went away from the run & has been outscored 46-0 in both 4th QT’s & OT.#Facts

Poor Kyle Shanahan pic.twitter.com/jdVdtWqz18

— Chris Vannini (@ChrisVannini) February 3, 2020

Before 28-3, the biggest Super Bowl lead in a losing effort was 10 points, and it happened twice. Chiefs overcame that tonight, so Kyle Shanahan technically has a hand in giving up the two biggest Super Bowl leads in history

Chiefs’ QB Patrick Mahomes was 5-0 when trailing by double-digits this season, including 3-0 in the postseason. He is the first QB in NFL history to lead three double-digit comebacks in a single postseason.

This is what I mentioned earlier. 9ers have a chance o get out of the Jimmy G contract if they wanted to. Would need a replacement in place before making such a move. Remember hearing Kyle liked Tannehill coming out... https://t.co/FKLf1KY6JJ
