Not as good as Riverboat Ron though. Riverboat Ron was born Week 3 2013. Since then, we've gone 28-10-1. Win % of 73.0, just decimal points away what Belichick's record has been with the Patriots.

The ONLY bad thing about David Gettleman is his age....I hope he can stay healthy and well for a long time...preferably while grooming a replacement a long the way. Love what he's done for and what hes brought to our franchise.

Feels damn good to have a boss GM.

Just to put things in perspective, that record also applies to Mike Shula.

One is considered to be near-genius, while the other is routinely vilified. 

Explain that juxtaposition fellow Huddlers.

Did Shula mange the cap, draft and negotiate two mega contracts in Cam and Luke?

or did he just keep calling the same plays until the players fit the scheme?

Shula has done great this year and I'm not knocking him but he ain't on Getts level.

 Of course he didn't do those things. I mean, that's not his job, is it?

I would be equally wrong to say that Shula has bailed out Gettleman by making chicken soup out of the chicken poop he was given on offense.

It is a team sport, and we can extend that to the team of front office personnel and the coaches too.

Shula has been a revelation this year.

this thread isn't about him.  It's about DG.

Stop making up words to confuse me.

Sorry, didn't mean to derail an excellent thread. Gettleman deserves all the accolades he gets and should be executive of the year.

While reading the OP, the thought just popped into my head that Gettleman and Shula both took their respective positions during the same offseason. One thing led to another, and next thing I knew, I gave into the dark side.

[The Huddler]

fug all the haters. Ive supported and defended him from the begining and my faith never waivered

 

defending the release of smith comes to mind

 

im calling out proudiddy. Dude had a pic of a guy getting his head blown off cause he was sooooopo upset and had no idea where this franchise was doin.  Uh.. 9-0

Really?  In the three seasons before he arrived, their record was 15-33 for a 31% win percentage.  It was that core that was given ridiculous contracts.  Hurney was desperate. 

Sooo, Gettlemen gets a team that loses 69% of their games with overpaid players whose contracts were guaranteed.  $16m in debt. 

 

He had Cam and Luke in place. That easily sets up a decade of dominance. You basically got a guaranteed HOF in Luke and maybe another one in Cam. Alot of teams take 5-10yrs or even longer to find their franchise QB and most don't find a franchise D player like Luke, Watt, etc. Hurney drafted the 2 most important pieces for this franchise so we can roll with them for the next 10-15 years. 

[EgoDogg]

Here's a shocking fact... Marty Hurney never received the award.

And by shocking, i mean the most obvious thing that's ever been stated.

[DaveThePanther2008]

That would be David Shula's record as an offensive coordinator too.

Isn't that actually the opposite of juxtaposition? 

But we judge each on different criteria based on their jobs. Bell and Kalil both had the same record last year, but we view their performance very differently based on how they did their jobs. Same with Gettz and Shula.

Bell vs Kalil is not valid. Independent evaluators like PFF had one as near the bottom of his position while the other is consistently near the top.

In the case of Shula, our O, the one he designs and controls, is near the top of league rankings.

Since my baby son was born in December of 2012 the team is 33-13-1 not counting the playoffs.
