Impossibly Perfect Sphere posted:Rodgers wasn't really wrong with most of his complaints about the Packers. Certainly they didn't try very hard to build around him in the back part of his time there. Eh, they were trying to build the best team possible without completely mortgaging the future. Part of the charm of having an ~elite~ qb is that they can elevate the offense around them and you don’t have to spend tons of capital on that side of the ball, and he still enjoyed a good line for a lot of that time. The defense hasn’t panned out (yet) but Love was really the only move that wasn’t trying to take advantage of the Rodgers window

SKULL.GIF posted:It owns how the Rams traded for Stafford, immediately won a championship, and then all these other teams tried trading for their own franchise QB and ate poo poo. Not like that’s a new thing and it worked out for Tampa quite well recently as well. In a weird way Denver too, even if P Manning was dead for their actual super bowl winning season, don’t think that could’ve worked with like Kyle Orton manning the helm

SKULL.GIF posted:I still think it's weird Rich Bisaccia never got a look anywhere after being extremely well received as interim coach for the Raiders and getting promoted to assistant head coach after only one year with the Packers. Same, he got that mediocre raiders team to the playoffs as an interim coach (in part because of singed-butt Staley but) after they had to deal with a lotta poo poo, and then back to STC? It’s weird—maybe he just didn’t want the pressure/responsibility

As a chargers fan, I’d still currently take Football Dictator Billy B over Staley and Tolesco. gently caress it, maybe it wouldn’t be good long term, but I’ll take the short term gamble with this roster before herbie becomes, like, a saint

Moore has been an upgrade, over an admittedly very low bar, but not as much as I was hoping. Some of it is the roster being injured/older/not as good as we thought, but he still hasn’t been spectacular or anything. That said, fire Staley way, way before him

Because if it hasn't happened yet, I don't think it's impossible for Tepper to be the first Think this happened to some coach in the 80s, but I’m completely blanking on who and what team. It was mentioned in articles about how Reich was the fastest HC firing besides this guy who was fired after two preseason games iirc (I prolly don’t)

There was also the stat floated around at the time that the raiders had basically garbage defenses for carr’s entire time on the raiders and the saints were expected to have at least a functional defense still lollin at the raiders fan I met in the wild this past offseason who was super hyped for jimmy g replacing carr because jimmy just wins

I’d however trust him to make the defense look good even with no additional pieces. I’ll take Belichick as Football Dictator at this point even if it wouldn’t be my dream hiring(s). They should obviously let whoever is in charge of the social media hirings run the hc/gm search tho

He might get an offensive coordinator position but I think his fire to be a head coach is gone. And yet he still made them playoff relevant for several seasons post-Luck with their endless qb carousel, and an owner doing lines off Hendrix’s guitar. Not saying he’s a HoF coach or anything, but compared to Arthur Smith? eh
