Black Monday News


Mr. Scot

Recommended Posts

General speculation is that the Panthers will make no major moves today.

Tampa has fired head coach Dirk Koetter but is keeping GM Jason Licht.

The Jets have also fired head coach Todd Bowles.

Peter King says Browns DC / interim head coach Gregg Williams is not a serious candidate for the permanent job. The Browns have reportedly requested permission to interview Patriots LB coach Brian Flores.

The Packers have also requested permission to interview Flores, along with Patriots OC Josh McDaniels.

All signs point to Cardinals DC / former Panthers DC Steve Wilks being fired in Arizona. No word on GM Steve Keim.

Thought it was reported this AM thag McCarthy was going to the Browns. 

Hadn't seen it. Saw the news on Flores but he could be a Rooney Rule interview.

Bruce Arians has been reported to covet that job too.

Edit: Did see a report that says the Browns are interested in Mike McCarthy.

There's a rumor that Marvin Lewis might be "promoted" to a front office job, but nothing's been said yet.

I see they are adopting the government approach, if you suck at your job you get promoted to management where you can't interfere with production.

Well I grant that it's stupid, I wouldn't exactly scream if we tried that approach with Marty Hurney.

    • FA may or may not be the best option each time. You know as well as I do that the LT is the highest paid position on offense behind QB and WR. If you have cap concerns, it would be better to draft a quality LT and hold him for 3-4 years before you have to sign him to a long term (and expensive 2nd contract). I wouldn't want to acquire a run stuffing DT in FA if I could get a younger one much cheaper in the draft.  Let's say no good Safties are on the market when prior to drafting. Once again you'd go to the draft. FA is a good way to feel out the roster prior to the draft, but it's possible to REACH there too. FO's usually end up over playing guys (at least at certain positions) who have already peaked. Besides, you always have to consider that the team that let them go didn't think they were worth the price they were asking to retain them. That certainly applies to our defense. We could draft the BPA at any level of our defense and immediately improve our team. A stud on the line beside DB would help the the run and pass defense. Our LB core needs a thumper/impact player at any position. We need another CB to play alongside JC. We have yet to see a Safety on our roster significantly impact a game this year.
    • Maybe Rod will change it up and slot Bussi in net. Why risk the inevitable injury to Freddie this early in the season against a team that will likely win regardless.  Just show up and play to win, that's all I ask. 
    • Well, I feel the same way about pharmaceutical, junk/fast food and political ads. They all cause active and KNOWN harm to the populace but we are the penultimate corrupt Western country, so that's just where we are as a society.
