sounds like shurmer and gman are on their way out.  they both got the no confidence vote from one of the owners today.  it was hilarious.   gman sucks

One thing I will say about gman is he was right about big men allow you to compete. Where are our big men, on IR. We must draft DT and OT in all rounds of the draft next year, or we will be back here next year.

Tepper is a successful hedge fund guy. He knows you have to have your nose on the ground level to see what people really think.

 

The Huddle is far below ground level. We are all polyps on the bowels of NFL fandom.

Woah woah woah. Let’s not go lumping everyone in together indiscriminately.

You might be a polyp.

I am not.

More of a fluke type myself.

gman just stunk at doing it.  and we need 2 guards and a center more than we need anything.  they're much easier to find also.  we had them on the board last year when we drafted but didn't take them.  we could be set in the middle right now, and had daley, but we're stupid.

He also sucked at social interactions and player networking. He did not respect players.

He must be one of the posters that love Hurney and thinks he’s great at evaluating talent

I think Hurney has done an admirable job on draft rounds 1-2. Every other round no, and CAP management he has done ok this second time. The Matt Khalil, Paradis, and Poe signings were terrible.

    • 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 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.
