Destroying his own football career. I'll withdraw that poo, take that 6 and get back to playing football. It's sad it turned out this way but no way I'll sit a whole season and then some for a domestic case. This ain't murder we talking here. No Carruth poo. I just made a thread on this. If hardy come back and play up to level somebody will sign him in the off-season. We may just be able to offer less bc of this just sayin

I don't understand why after 6 games of sitting and with knowledge Greg's trial isn't until 2015 he wouldn't suit up. I call shenanigans on the media if they lash out, the guy would've served the equivalent of a six game suspension. Guys like Donte Stallworth and Ray Lewis played after killing a person. It feels like the media wants Hardy to never suit up again.

I don't think he should have to sit out over a year of his nfl career.  I think that after 6 games of sitting out, he should be allowed back on the field as per the NFL rules.

 

Exactly and I agree.  At this point just have him sit out his six games and let him back on the field, or come out again and change your policy.

I think the NFL will want to suspend Hardy without pay as punishment. He's being paid while exempt, which I think will not be considered as his punishment. So we're looking at exemption until the end of the trial, which would be the rest of this season, including the playoffs. Then a suspension next season while he's not under contract with anyone, and the length of the suspension will be determined by the outcome of the trial.

 

So Hardy will certainly not see the field this season, and the odds are good that he won't see the field next season either. It's over. Hardy is a fool, and if he's guilty then his career is over. If he's innocent, then he might be back in 2016.

    • So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?
    • Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.
    • Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
