How exactly has Hurney been terrible so far in his second stint?

His track record shows it. So he'll be terrible until he proves otherwise. When good and/or respected GMs are let go they usually get jobs pretty quickly. No other NFL, ever looked Hurneys way after being fired.

When the going gets tough...

I've got better things to do with my life than watch reruns, especially reruns from some of the worst seasons of the show. 

It'll be like watching season 9 of how I met your mother, suffering through each horrible episode, and holding out hope that the finale won't be utter garbage this time around.

Honestly, he hasn't been horrible truth be told. He hasn't really had to do much other than trim the roster down to the final 53. I've actually agreed with a few of the moves he's made. 

Unfortunately he'll have full control moving forward, and that's where his heart gets in the way of his head, at least it did in the past.

I mean obviously he hasn't been good or bad in his second stint...

But that's like Jeff fisher getting a new job and people saying he hasn't been terrible, while true his track record suggests that 7-9 is coming. 

You are what your history says you are until you prove otherwise. I have no problem with Hurney in the 1st round but obviously that's the easiest round that teams SHOULD get correct. Not saying they do but the probability goes up.

Believe it or not, there are some indications that he might actually be worse than we even know.

      Just another 1st round QB that never paid off for the team that drafted them or traded for them. It's been like this since the SB began. 36 QBs have now won the SB & only 13 of them have been 1st rounders winning with their original team. Namath 1968, Griese 1972, Bradshaw 1974, McMahon 1985, Simms 1986, Aikman 1992, Elway 1997, Roethlisberger 2005, P.Manning 2006, E.Manning 2007, Rodgers 2010, Flacco 2012, & Mahomes 2019. Only 3 have taken longer than 5 seasons as the starter to win a SB.  4  6  5  4  6  4  15  2  9  4  3  5  2 [the years it takes for these 1st round QBs] 5  1  4  1  3  1  1  2  3  4  [10 of the 36 have won a chip with their 1st team that haven't been drafted in the 1st round. These are the years it took them as a starter] What stands out? Only 2 of these QBs have lost their first championship appearance. Elway took 4 years as a 1st rounder & Hurts took 2 years as a 2nd rounder. Of the 10 non-1st round QBs, 2 are 2nd rounders, 3 are 3rd rounders, 5 are 6th rounders or later. Please stop wasting time on drafting 1st round QBs with such a high failure rate. The remaining 13 QBs are traded or free agent signings. Stafford, Favre, Young, Williams and Dawson are the 5 trades. Peyton Manning & Tom Brady also won for teams as free agents on a short stay as well as being drafted. The lesson here is don't waste your franchise on farming up 1st rounders for the league, and steer clear of trading for a franchise QB. Stick to finding that championship QB by drafting them outside of the 1st round or through free agency.

      I wake up this morning full of rage towards Ronald McDonald Rivera / Gettleman / Hurney

      I lost most of the respect I had for Fox in 2010. He should have resigned if he hated the job that much. Instead he stuck for his paycheck and let stuff go to hell.    I burned out on Ron too but my deal breaker issue with him was away from football and after he was gone from the Panthers. He may have been out of his depth but never quit on us.

      From where they were one year ago to now, pretty incredible. I mean, say what you want about Vrabel he is no Jerrod Mayo.
