If I recall correctly, the season after Haskell left is when Bill Musgrave balked at taking over the OC job.

I'd have to look it up to be sure. That whole thing was weird.

I know a lot of talk has come out since that Seifert was a gigantic a--hole.

You’re right about it. It really threw things into a tailspin in 2000. That, and Steve got sacked about 4000 times.

And Jeffers getting hurt...

I'll have to check out the interview.

Somebody remind me: What year was it that we signed the late Jeff Lewis? Was it the same year we drafted Chris Weinke?

Random memories: 

George Seifert's departure was the most bizarre thing in the world. He reportedly met with the players and gave a whole speech about what they were going to be doing next season after he'd already been told that he was fired.

Also regarding Chris Weinke, can't remember if it was on Hard Knocks or some other program of that sort but word was that as a coach, he had a more extensive mastery of foul language than the dad in A Christmas Story.

In case you don’t feel like going to download the podcast, because it is a little bit of a pain, here are a couple of Lu’s Seifert takes

      In all honesty, he should probably get that checked out. It might be (Arnold Schwarzenegger voice) "a tuuumaaa"

      This Bryce Guy (General BY Discussion in Here)

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      I've seen the comp a few times, and I feel there is a lot to it. Our situation is a lot like Kansas City was pre-Mahomes (without the HOF HC) Whether you like them or not, D&D are building something here.  They had a strong draft.  The team is slowly coming together, developing some identity, and has some decent blue chip parts.  Brown, Horn, McMillan, and a good OL situation that we should keep fortifying every year.  It's not much yet, but growing.    Bryce is in that Alex Smith spot.  A top draft pick, has never been overly impressive, but you can win games when he's safe with the ball.  You're not winning because of him - maybe once in a blue moon.  From time to time he's shown the ability to orchestrate some plays and lead drives.  I just don't see anything that is like - "oh snap, yeah don't let him go, he's ours".  He'll make a solid/good throw every now and again, but man, it is a struggle a lot of the time to watch.  Some terrible performances to speak of, heck he's already been benched once during year 2.      He should in no way preclude you from flirting with what else is out there.  This is not a marriage.  If you're in position (or trade range) for a guy you REALLY like come draft day, you shoot your shot. If we are in the draft process, and suddenly realize QB3-4 is a guy we really like, that's when you make a modest jump from like 16 to 11 or something like that.  Just like the Bills did for Allen, like the Chiefs did for Mahomes.  This is nothing magical that plants this franchise savior title on them, this is not some stupid trade-- it's an easy trade up to get a guy you like w/a big ceiling.  It's all player dependent and coaching/development driven.  If we don't like a QB, by all means fortify the front-7, get an awesome OLB or ILB prospect.   But we're on year 3, you kind of know what you're getting at this point.  Mostly sub-200 yard performances, low YPA, bad technique, poor mechanics, some decent stuff sprinkled in, but some bad turnover heavy ones that kill the team's momentum.  Again, run with him if there's no complete disaster that happens the remainder of the season, but don't close the door on something better just because of the investment or debatable performances.
