Hurney for Morrison's Old Job

Hurney is in a unique situation. Maybe he has had time to grow and reflect on what lead to his ultimate failure as our GM. How many people get the chance to leave a job, take multiple years off away from the NFL, then step back into the exact same position you were fired from? I can't think of this ever happening before....maybe, hopefully Hurney has learned from his past failures.

 

Or maybe he's about to sign Greg Olsen to a 6 year 87 million dollar extension.

Off the top of my head, Parcells, Gibbs, Scott Mccloughan, etc....there are plenty that have done this....and many more that were rumored for years like:

Cowher, Gruden, etc...it happens.  The NFL loves it's damn re-treads.

All of those seem different to me though. Hurney helped build this current team.

Ron Rivera can't handle a game management of the clock let alone being a GM

Riverboat can handle anything.  Stoic Ron is subpar.  Depends who is coaching a particular game.  

and heck, even Belichick under the gun makes some pretty boneheaded calls if you watch him enough and he is arguably the GOAT

For your own sanity.

 

You should pay more attention to football insteading of spewing hate you might actually have valid posts once in awhile 

Too much hate is not good for your health :)

He is still mad about FUPA man , I doubt he will ever give Rivera any credit for success of this team.

Hurney's here to stay.   And that sucks.   

I've quit waiting for that press release announcing they've hired a consultant to lead the search for his replacement.

I expect a half assed effort sometime deep into the season to satisfy the Rooney Rule but in my heart I know Richardson has already made up his mind.

He didn't "leave". He got fired. Because he was terrible and ultimately ran this roster into the ground.

How many people get fired, spend several years in completely unrelated work, then somehow end up in that exact same role again? Not damn anybody and for a whole host of really good reasons. Well, not anybody until this whole JR/Marty weirdness went on.

    • We need a Sam Off Ball Backer to pair with Lloyd. Lloyd is a strong Interior Will especially in Pass Coverage- but that is also Trevin Wallace’s archetype. Need a Rozeboom style run stopper. Rodriguez and Allen fit that
    • There aren’t that many ways to screw Day 2 up.  That’d be them making an obvious reach, or selecting at one of the few positions that we are pretty solid at. Because as excited as we are for the growth and improvement this team is showing, it’s still not an overly talented or deep roster. Honestly, there aren’t really many positions I’d feel bad about. Feelings about Bryce aside (because we are not going to select a QB), it’s really RB (bad positional value) and that’s it. I guess OT too since we grabbed Freeling in Round 1.    While not as high on my wish list as other spots, you can justify WR or TE.     Interior offensive lineman who would likely take over an interior spot either this year (at center) or guard (next for cap casualty of Hunt or Lewis)? Fine by me.   Dlineman? Yes, that’s a highly rotational position and we have zero quality depth.    ILB? Yep, could stand for an upgrade over Wallace.    EDGE? Absolutely wouldn’t hate another option to spell Phillips, Scourton, and Princely.    FS?  Would love to add better coverage skill set to the backend of the defense. Moehrig and Ransom are great in run support but not as good deep. Adding a more traditional FS would allow us to mix and match/run some 3 safety sub packages and or a big nickel type look with a SS down near the line for better run support in possible pass downs.    CB? Could stand to get better at nickel. 
    • Sounds like Veesaar is entering the draft. He could always test the waters and pull out and return but without him our big men look like a serious liability. Better do something in the portal. If they don't do something about this portal madness my days as a college sports fan are probably numbered. This bullshit of having a nearly entirely new team every season is gonna get old fast.
