  1. I just don't get why anyone wouldn't expect to see him sooner than later now that he is healthy so why be vocal about it before Baker gets his shot this week? We could end up seeing both in this game so why make any noise about Sam for another week? Part of me hopes its McAdoo but to be fair that is the chaotic neutral part of me not wanting most of this staff around past game 17.
  2. People that should not be here employed when we draft a new QB that is who. Just rotate the garbage and make it through the year. These are probably the same people that said Sam was basically a rookie last year lol.
  3. I'm fine with fans cheering for loses in a season like this, I'm not when it comes from coaches and players. I'm more concerned with getting more draft picks than I am where we are picking yet and neither is going to matter for a couple of months anyways.
  4. How could a billionaire with a kids bowl cut get into a situation like this? Lolz...in Vages with a new expensive stadium. I don't feel one bit of pity for anyone dumb enough to hire McDanials as a HC with his history.
  5. Nothing is guaranteed in the NFL except owner profits at this point. I want the right QB, not the 'experts' ranked next up BS. Get a new staff and be realistic about the prospects. Most are not perfect and the best ones usually end up on really bad teams. As long as we avoid trading up on a mega deal then we always have next year to try again.
  6. Fug the money, he earned it by fooling a billionaire out of his cash. 3 wasted seasons for a man I don't even respect outside of football? I don't wish him well, I wish his opponents well.
  7. Snow runs a good college D and likes quality physical traits. No worries on that side. The other side I would be very skeptical of those players.
  8. Peters bowed out of our GM search. It happens but others will take any job that is a promotion. It all depends and unless we are operating under the traditional GM/HC structure than it keeps the worst away and be more about pairing those 2. Good pairings bring the best out and bad ones bring absolute crap to the table. I just want to see a HC who is a football junky and strategist. Offensively minded would be the most stable longterm.
  9. It would be hilarious. I'm definitely currious and that is a trainwreck worth peaking over once in a while for laughs. i would be shocked if he could pull off his schtick at a school like than and not a mid teir team.
  10. No QB played well under Rhule. They all played their worst actually. Cam came back and subbed in for a win and then Rhule found a way to ruin even that so no, not under Rhule. He was never qualified to coach at the NFL level and meh even at the school level, mostly on the back of Snow's D. If Rhule had a superpower it would be making anything good worse. Just look at Chinn.
  11. It's sad but you can see even the fans having a hard time with that one. But Rhule! Using a guy who shouldn't have had an interview for a HC job in the NFL is just sad (I still don't know how he got to be a hot name by doing nothing impressive at an easier level). Most just want to return to the safe space of being a competent loser. Le sigh
  12. I'm a huge critic of Rivera but he was an NFL quality coach and Rhule was a meh school level coach, that difference is large at this level. I get your point and there is something to it but Rivera can run one side of the ball and Rhule is qualified to play with his brand. That is a big gap from the beginning. Also those QBs that Rhule had were his choices. Not his top choices but the ones that would come here to play under him. He could have drafted Fields so that falls on Rhule after 3 years of chances to take a QB worth playing. Rivera without Cam is a sub .500 HC as his time in DC has shown but he is still .500 on this year even with his garbage QB preferences. Rhule just kept getting worse and Ron is amazingly stubborn about any change so he is still doing the same stuff and getting the same results every year. Any way I can look at it Rivera is a better HC in the NFL and that gap is really competency for the get go. Rhule had zero NFL competency and the best thing I can say is that he looked at players physical abilities so at least we have some physically talented players to try and coach up now.
  13. Ron loved Hurney lol. Ron's best years were with DG, the years that got him over .500. He would have been a stellar HC in the 70s. He is a sub .500 HC without Cam and that is a fact from his time in DC.
  14. Sam had years of tape going back to school that showed why he was a bad option at best. Spend a 2nd or 3rd on a QB? Sure if they are decent. Trade for a guy who is worse than the QB they brought in the year before with multiple picks? That is just a bad job. We also could have had a QB in the draft but they had already committed to Sam. There is no positive in that trade. It's good he did a much better job with Baker but that is again not a great move but a desperate one that just cost less but ended up about the same.
  15. When you take a new job and they ask you to do a move like the Sam trade you have already made a major mistake. He signed up for that and I do blame him for it even if Rhule was at the top of the blame pile. It's not going away. He way overpaid by any standard. The option was just another mistake at that point that they had to do because of their first huge mistake of overpaying for a QB in a trade. The option pickup just proves that he thought the Sam move was a good move, if there was any question he didn't have to use the option with the franchise tag available and they certainly were talking about that option at the time of the trade with how the options play into long-term planning. There is no way he isn't partly at fault for the Sam trade, he was a part of it whatever size that is and if we will ever know.
  16. Ron made a lot of bad decisions and then used Cam in the only way he could after backing himself into multiple corners. Cam was always going to be special regardless and I don't really see anything Ron did to help that, lots of hindering but not much help. Thank god Cam had Olsen, Hurney's shining trade. By the time they got CMC Cam had been run into the ground by a desperate and underachieving HC.
  17. Ron is showing who he really is up in DC. He was lucky to have Cam and Luke. Their marriage almost worked but it was a failure in the end unfortunately. I really don't know how many teams Cam would have worked with but he was a stud and I can't imagine anyone using him worse than how Ron did and he still lasted years longer than any normal human should have. Ron gets negative credit for Cam and what he did, once Cam was gone we have all seen who he is and it's very mediocre. Ron is a mediocre coach who has big positives and big negatives. Great person, great DC and mediocre HC. The breakdown of his records and the situations in each place back that up.
  18. It is in Wahington and not here. Context and checking who said what matters because I never said what you quoted. And add in the fact that without Cam he would have looked a lot more like his Commie time here. So yeah mediocre overall at best who got lucky walking into a franchise QB who he ruined. Yay!
  19. Nothing. Tepper would look like a fool again and Wilks wouldn't last 2 years playing conservative ball not as an interim HC. What makes him a safe interim HC is what makes him a bad HC candidate. Again Saturday won his first game coaching ever. I just don't see how Wilks can compete for this job with the other candidates being discussed...out side of clueless ownership.
  20. .546 here and .422 up in DC for a total of .522. Bearly over .500 total with a sample size of 12 years. His window closed decades ago and without Cam he would not even break .500. And that is being kind.
  21. Ohh there is a lot to say for sure. Good human and what is happening up in Commieland is par for the course. .500 HC built on tough football and limited by ability to adapt with the game. And he wanted Hurney back here and up there lol. He had a good win but they are division rivals and the Eagles are good but not unbeatable. It's not surprising really. Who beat Ron in his almost perfect year here? Yup. I'm still glad he is gone and Wilks looks too similar for any excitment about him long term. Congrats on the win and maybe not getting fired at the end of the year with Snyder up to his kneck in his gross mess.
  22. So the interim HC who is trying to stay in the NFL is using the guys the very bad HC brought in and wouldn't use and any of this is surprising? Didn't Saturday win his first game coaching at any level in the NFL? Wilks deserves his due for the good he has done but he is also showing why he shouldn't be considered for the long term job. Friterer is a whole other conversation and no one is sure if it is even worth having until Tepper shows he is at least intends to interview GM candidates. I noticed there was no mention of the Sam trade by Friterer lol. Fluff peice at best and very propagandish.
  23. He is getting hired after this year and I hope we are the first to come asking to interview him.
