Mediocre RON!!!

Yep. I've said it a million times going back to the Fox days. Conservative, "play not to lose" style coaching gets you .500. You beat the garbage teams, lose to the good ones, and once in a while, you get an influx of great talent that skews the results for the better.

Well if they’d gotten Rian Johnson to direct it, I’m sure the ship would have just sailed to New York without incident and the movie would have been half as long, just so he could defy people’s expectations.

No, I’m not still bitter about that jackass ruining Star Wars with The Last Jedi, why do you ask?

I regret that I can only pie this one time.

"Ron Rivera is taking almost all of the Panthers' offensive staff with him to Carolina. One notable exception: RBs coach Jake Peetz. The Panthers blocked a request from the Redskins to interview Peetz, the position coach for first-team All-Pro RB Christian McCaffrey." from Albert Breer

 

Gotta keep some continuity with the only good thing from last season. 

Does this mean Rhule wants to keep Jake Peetz?

Took the wife to see Austin Powers 2. Got to the scene where Heather Graham comes out of the ocean in a white bikini, she turns to me and goes "Do you think she's hot?"

(there is no right answer to that question)

I would imagine they've discussed it.

It's funny because asking him to keep a coach was what caused him to decline the Jets job offer.

I get the impression the Jets more than asked.  They basically said "here is a list of guys for all of your assistant jobs.  You can only pick here".

The impression I get, based on pure feelings, is that the Panthers are still giving Rhule ultimate say.  Just saying "we really like what this one guy has done, please consider him for a lower tier RB coaching job".

Pretty sure they wanted to name his DC, which is just dumb as hell, but it's the Jets, so who's surprised.

To the OP, like I said yesterday, Ron really needed to take a year and reflect.  He absolutely, 100% thinks that he isn't the problem.  And while I agree that he isn't the entire problem, he is a big piece of it.

Good luck Washington.

Peetz isnt just "the guy who coached the good position group" last season.

He's the guy who Saban brought in the season prior to effectively do for Alabama what the oft mentioned saints coach did for LSU, the only difference being that he was helping Saban integrate the RPO working with Tua rather than passing game advancements like at LSU.

 

His title doesn't mean as much in this case

      The only thing I said was he was part of the staff that made part of the decisions, and that I am judging the decisions made by that group as a whole. As assistant GM, you can pretty much guarantee his input held more sway than an intern or the guy that takes coffee requests. Fitterer didn't operate in a vacuum. Neither does Morgan now. While Fitterer did have the ultimate decision, to say that Dan had no input in ranking boards, evaluating FAs, trade offers or anything else would be asinine. We all know he did. Otherwise what the hell was his job as assistant GM? He wouldn't have been kept for 3 years if he was arguing every decision Scott ever made.    And the actual quote was "Morgan has done a bang up job in the draft and FA. Compared to what the last guy did, he is kicking ass and taking names." So is XL kicking ass and Brooks taking names from last years draft or did I get it backwards? We took Wallace over Payton Wilson because he was an injury risk after trading up for a RB with a torn ACL? Which one of the kicking ass and taking names was that?  Maybe we should review the thousands of gameday posts calling for XL to get off the field because he's a bust and can't catch a cold. We could review the posts about Brooks but... And Wilson. He's at 118 tackles this season vs 36 for Wallace.  I gave credit to Dan for a good draft this year. But I'm also not ignoring last year's draft either since he did that one after the last guy too.  That's not a strawman.

      And then, in week 18, we can take Mayfield out of the game and whoop Bridgewater's @$$ for good measure! Let the former QB revenge train roll on!!

      If we keep our guards in tact ($$$) and go with Mays at C, some OT depth would be nice. I think we should be happy about CB with Thornton's development (pre injury) and Smith Wade. I think Ransom is developing nicely, but I would like to see a FS type for situations. We suck at ILB and Edge (as a whole). We should be OK at RB.  I hope we sign Dowdle to a short contract. QB?  There are signs of hope and development.  (I don't like our backup QB) TE?  Good draft for TE, but I think we are developing with Evans, Sanders, and Tremble. WR?  A #2 with Coker and Horn in the slot.  XL?  What is that? We should be good in 2026. Morgan does more than draft.  Free agency has been strong too.  (Just emptying my brain on your comment--sorry)
