Jeff Ireland rumored to be a GM candidate


Mr. Scot

Recommended Posts

Jonathan Jones was being interviewed about the Panthers firing Hurney. Nick Wilson asked him if he knew of any candidates. He mentioned a couple of hypotheticals (Ed Dodds, Nick Caserio, Ryan Poles) but gave one specific name that's being linked to the Panthers in "league circles",

Jeff Ireland

The connection to Matt Rhule is obviously fuel for the speculation, but Ireland's been a hot GM candidate for a few years now due to the work he's done running the Saints draft.

So at this point, Ireland is an official...rumor.

Took a look at the Saints forum...

Saint fans are nervous, unhappy and worried at the prospect of Ireland taking the Panthers job. A few are rationalizing reasons why he wouldn't want the promotion to GM or want to leave the Saints while others are resigned to him being gone.

Granted, might not happen, but... :)

Yep. 

Here's a rundown of what he did that got himself fired:

There was this guy named Bill something who sucked in Cleveland but did a lot better on his second job.

I don't know if Ireland's the guy, but he's done enough at this point to be a hot candidate for not just our job, but others also,

    • The fact you're having to rely on "rushing yards per game" (he is averaging 18, Bryce is averaging 10) here is really telling lmao. I already gave the clear advanced differences. Shough is playing worse than Bryce. You are literally gassing up a worse, 2-4 QB for a rival team and I find that incredibly funny.
    • Okay so I took a look at this across a WIDE variety of overall metrics and statistical groups that should give an idea about overall play and some potential aggravating factors associated with their play.  Overall, I would say this indicates by the categories that I have detailed out that Tua and Geno are clearly the guys that are having worse seasons than Bryce. I would add that I am still of the opinion that they are better overall QB's given both capability and past performances. I will definitely concede there is not a solid statistical argument for them having a better year than Bryce, to date.  Here is the data I gathered and I have shaded the cells according to "better than" or "worse than" Bryce. In a couple of the categories, this is an inverse because I am indicating these were less aggravating situations than Bryce has had and therefore less excusable reasoning for sucking.  Let me know if there are any questions on the data/categories/etc.
    • Which is why you can't ignore the 1st 2 seasons because the Saints and 9ers looked exactly like Bryce in the 1st 2 seasons.
