FOXBOROUGH, Mass. -- Josh McDaniels is going to be some NFL teams head coach next year. And when this happens, if your first thought is something about what a disaster he was as a head coach in Denver, youll want to also think back to this September and whats going on in New England.McDaniels is the offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach for a Patriots team that is now 2-0 without Tom Brady or Rob Gronkowski. During the first half of Sundays game, as Brady backup Jimmy Garoppolo was strafing the Miami Dolphins for 234 yards and three touchdowns on 18-of-27 passing, disaster struck again. Garoppolo went down hard on his throwing shoulder on a hit by Kiko Alonso, and into the game came rookie quarterback Jacoby Brissett.This development was met in the Patriots offensive huddle with a collective shrug.I was more so worried if (Garoppolo) was going to be OK or not, running back LeGarrette Blount said. As far as how we were going to do as an offense, I wasnt worried about that.This is because the Patriots players know theres a plan, and they believe it will work. They play for a coaching staff that knows how to solve problems. A collective panic may have been sweeping through the stadium and the fan base, but the sight of Brissett in the huddle didnt shake up the players. They were thinking about the game plan, and how to execute it.Our coaching staff does a great job of preparing this team, receiver/special teamer Matthew Slater said. Ive seen it time and time again over the years.So has the rest of the league, which is why McDaniels will be the hot head-coaching candidate once this season ends. The mess he made in Denver as a 33-year-old first-time head coach with personnel control tends to obscure the fact that hes one of the sharpest offensive coaching minds in a league whose general managers all seem to be looking for exactly that every January.Oddly, the presence of Brady works against the public perception of McDaniels as well, because its fair to wonder how much coaching a player like Brady really even needs.But McDaniels has been the Patriots quarterbacks coach for 10 of Bradys 17 NFL seasons, so its fair to assume he has had some influence. Regardless, the design and the agility of the offensive game plans the Patriots have used in their two victories so far this season bear the mark of brilliance.Short stuff, quick routes, get your quick little receivers open and get the ball in their hands. Same kind of stuff they do with Brady, sure, but more important with inexperienced types like Garoppolo and Brissett. Adjusting week to week -- keeping Martellus Bennett in to block almost exclusively last week in Arizona because of the way they rush the passer, then unleashing him as a five-catch, 114-yard receiving threat this week against Miami. Adjusting at the half to feed Blount and eat up the clock with a big lead.No matter whos in there at quarterback for them, they have a great game plan, Dolphins safety Michael Thomas said. It was a whole different game once Garoppolo went out, but kudos to them.We knew they would get more basic, but they still made plays, Dolphins safety Isa Abdul-Quddus said. We tried to stop the run, and they just made plays.What McDaniels is doing with this offense, under these circumstances, will be noticed. There are former Patriots executives in charge of teams like the Lions and Titans, who could be looking for head coaches after this season. These men know McDaniels and the way he works, and theyre not the only ones who view him as an excellent coach who (still only 40!) deserves another chance, just like the coach he works for once needed another chance.Fifty-four points and a 2-0 record with their second- and third-string quarterbacks and without their all-universe tight end? Does anyone think theyre not going to have something surprising in store for Houston on Thursday, even with only three days to get ready? Dont you think Texans coach Bill OBrien, himself a former Patriots offensive coordinator, is bracing for everything McDaniels has got -- Jacoby Brissett or no?The team that prepares the best will usually go out and win that Thursday game, Patriots receiver Julian Edelman said.He didnt say his team would be the one that prepares the best. He didnt have to. Everybody here knows it, and most people around the league know it too. So when McDaniels spends the Patriots playoff bye week going on job interviews in January, think about whats going on here right now, and you wont have any trouble figuring out why.Fake Air Max 90 China .

Kaepernick finished ahead, in the dislike category, of Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Jameis Winston (22 percent), Miami Dolphins defensive end Ndamukong Suh (21 percent), New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady (13 percent) and Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger (10 percent).In August 2014, the last time the poll was taken, Kaepernick -- fresh off leading the San Francisco 49ers to the NFC Championship Game before losing to the Seattle Seahawks -- was only disliked a lot by 6 percent of the population.The overall negative sentiment for Kaepernick is even higher among NFL fans. Today, 36 percent say they dislike him a lot, up from just 10 percent when last asked two years ago.While results of the poll show Kaepernick being more disliked by the general population, much of that has to do with the fact that African-Americans only make up 15 percent of the U.S. population. Kaepernick hasnt been standing during the national anthem to show his displeasure with the treatment of African-Americanns by police officers.ddddddddddddAmong African-Americans, Kaepernick has never been more popular. The poll shows 42 percent of African-Americans now say they like the 49ers quarterback a lot, while only 2 percent dislike him a lot. Two years ago, only 16 percent of African-Americans said they liked Kaepernick a lot, while 3 percent disliked him a lot.Much of the change in sentiment comes from how Caucasians feel about him.Two years ago, only 7 percent of Caucasians said they disliked Kaepernick a lot. Last week, that number had jumped to 37 percent.As Kaepernicks actions were focused on, sales of his jersey skyrocketed to the best-selling jersey in the league for a couple days in the beginning of the month.Jersey sales represents a metric which shows how he has inspired a number of people who show support by opening up their wallet, said Gerry Philpott, CEO of E-Poll. There is no counter-metric that you can use for those who he has alienated or had never heard of him before, other than the sentiment we measured.Kaepernicks highly publicized stand has obviously made him more relevant, even though hes the backup to Blaine Gabbert?and isnt getting time on the field.Only 24 percent of people said they knew his name two years ago. Last week, 42 percent of those polled were familiar. ' ' '
