"Small market" is an owner myth used as an excuse to let them not spend money. Every team in the league, including the Packers, can easily spend more than the current salary cap is

I don't think Gannon will get fired unless he is Urban or Hackett levels of inept/embarrassing, which he very well might be.

YOLOsubmarine posted:Rich billionaire owners are the reason teams move in the first place, since they like to pit cities against each other to get public money to build new stadiums to hold non-football events to get even richer. The league generally begrudgingly accepts moves, rather than pushes for them. Green Bay is one of the top 5 least likely teams to ever move, for historical and economic reasons. Yeah Green Bay is more or less one of the pillars of the league, it's not like moving the Rams

What you do as a GM almost doesn't matter if you keep messing up at OL and QB, you can't win games with those positions in disarray

Campbell went on Paytons staff in NO for a while and built up his resume a bit, and who knows if he would have had the same success if he did not do that.

Forrest on Fire posted:Or he's letting Bill get a real QB to ruin in a draft instead of trying to hire a replacement to Belichick. There's no successor to BB. His kid isn't as knowledgeable of defenses. Whoever follows Bill probably gets fired within 2 seasons The answer isn't anyone on the current staff though so that doesn't matter e: It doesn't actually matter if he has an extension or not if they want to move on, they can either just eat it and fire him or trade him

McDaniels bailing on Indy probably isn't looked on as badly by people in the league as it is by fans because Irsay is batshit crazy. His failure in Denver is way more relevant than that Judge and Patricia failed so badly and in the case of Patricia his replacement took the same defense and made it way better the next year it looks extra bad. The thing people don't really realize is Patricia was never really a "good" DC

Dorsey is definitely going to be the sacrificial lamb, the team will have to crater and not make the playoffs for McDermott to get fired. I can see a scenario where they fire Dorsey, get a new OC and the record doesn't really improve because of the other issues with the team and then McDermott gets canned a year or two down the road

I wouldn't make the argument that McD/Ziegler didn't do anything to improve the team, they traded for DeVante Adams. Some of the things they did didn't work out, but they didn't just sit on their hands and do nothing I wouldn't hold bailing on Indy against him either given Irsay is insane, Luck had just missed the entire season and then ended up retiring after 2018

Dorsey is going to be the sacrificial lamb, I think McDermott gets to skate on that this time Bills fans should be alarmed at the steady increase of Allens INT% though, it's been going up for the last four straight seasons and is now firmly in the middle of the two "Wow, Josh Allen sucks" seasons Nodoze fucked around with this message at 16:52 on Nov 14, 2023 |

If the Chargers hired Bill your definitely getting McDaniels as your OC because Bill knows him already and he's basically free cause Vegas is paying him.

Benne posted:Derek Carr has been in the league for 10 years and has two winning seasons to show for it He made some really horrendous throws last year, and just in general was bad with fantastic options to throw to. Easy to blame McDaniels but Mac Jones played better in the same offense with worse weapons the year before that

YOLOsubmarine posted:It’s easy to blame McDaniels because that’s two years in a row of QBs looking way worse under him than they did immediately before. Garappolo looked like complete poo poo this year. One year of Mac Jones looking middling is the only thing McDaniels has to his name and I think it’s fair to call that a fluke at this point. Jimmy never really looked right after the foot injury unfortunately McDaniels was a bad coach but Carr also played like poo poo. Both can be true

They could turn it around pretty quick if they get the right coach/GM in and nail this draft. They have a lot of work to do obviously, but they have a poo poo load of money available and a high draft pick

I'm not convinced Vrabel would be a super great hire unless your team already has a good established QB, his inability to put an offense together after Arthur Smith left is kind of concerning Like, there are some stories about how the Krafts like him and would be interested but how is he going to be any different than just giving Bill another shot with a rookie QB

They weren't even the fun kind of awful to watch like Jameis out there fun slinging, it's Bailey Zappe going 12 for 30 for 88 yards and 2 picks. That stat line is straight out of 1974 not 2024
