Derek Barnett had 2 sacks in preseason opener

I'll do my best Free-Fua impersonation...

 

 

Told you all. So ridiculously stupid for DG to pass up on Barnett for McC. Can't believe a couch potato like myself is smarter than an NFL GM, it's just pitiful and sad. Glad JR finally fired him but he never should've hired him in the first place.

Wow and I were the only two championing this guy.  CMC had better be all that and then some, especially when Pep and Big Money are gone.  http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000000828514/article/derek-barnett-impresses-with-twosack-performance

Nails, if you don't remember me before the draft saying that I liked him better than Garrett then you weren't paying attention at the time. I was all over this kid, and still am. It's just preseason though and doesn't matter until we actually see what happens with him, and ultimately I'm thrilled we have McC and wouldn't change anything.

    • It would depend on how we lost... If we lose a bunch of 17-13 . 20-7 type games where the defense plays well and offensively Bryce is sh***TING the bed...then he wouldn't get fired.  If we are losing 40-9, 38-14 type games..then yeah it's a possibility.   Couple that with our tough schedule.. if we show well in lets say half those games.. win either Seattle or New England game, at least 1 win vs division oponents.. he's good.  So imo.. to get fired he needs to : Loose badly against the top tier teams ie Blown out Show no progress offensively from last year. Show an unwillingness to bench Bryce again if he is horrible over multiple games ..  Get swept by the Saints again.  
    • I think he's gone, and rightfully so, if he turns in another losing record. The "talented roster," regardless of how true or not, is a double-edged sword. If the roster is so much improved now from 202X then why are you still producing losing seasons? On one hand, maybe that's what needs to happen. Have the GM hire the new coach, and then have the new coach pick his guy to run his system. That is typically how it works in the NFL. Not the forced inheritance deal we have had in place.
    • Hinging on Brooks to be our spark...be good if it happens... but not holding my breath....RB next draft. Morgan gambled...it would be a 2 year payoff if thing happened.
