Words Washington organization staff/players used to describe Ron.  20210103_231247.thumb.jpg.f28296c43439d8ef1df3673e146f3e48.jpg

To the one coach on the face of the Earth who could find a way to screw us more in losing to us than he did in losing for us, and the only coach in NFL history to make the playoffs twice with a losing record.  Thanks.

Tired of personal digs at Ron. Hes a good man and very respected 

Love him as a person off the field, but as a coach, he has screwed us out of more success than any one ever could by losing when we should have won and winning when we should've lost.  He also ran a generational talent at QB into the ground that will take us years to fix.  Sorry, not sorry.  There's plenty of great people who suck at their jobs, and Ron is one of them and he just keeps finding a way to stick it to us even when he is coaching elsewhere.

I don't, because someone with inside access to the organization said the business and football sides under Richardson rarely mixed, and Richardson stayed on the business side of the building.

Now if you wanted to talk about Marty Hurney, and at least potentially even Dave Gettleman, then maybe...

He led the "Mr. Richardson" pep talk after tight jeans Friday went public.

I don't think he knew the truth at that time.

I do kinda wonder whether he does now.

idk he might have had an inkling

Additionally, Richardson reportedly directed a slur at an African-American scout this year. The scout left the team but employed a Charlotte attorney to negotiate a settlement. Richardson has reportedly made other racially insensitive gestures, like asking for African-American players not to wear dreadlocks and asking one African-American employee to apply sunblock to his face.

 

he didn’t really try to hide his behavior (outside of nda’s after the fact) so regardless of where it often took place it likely got around the organization. unless there was a coordinated effort among staff around him to keep it from higher profile figures like rivera. i’m not really buying it though. he was there for years before it hit the news. rivera knew something.

Anything happening with a scout would fall under Marty's sphere, but not necessarily Rivera's.

For the record, all indications are that scout was Khary Darlington. He was considered a guy on the rise, and then he disappeared right around the same time that happened.

Could Rivera have known something? Possible. I don't know that he did, though. Don't really believe Gettleman did either because after his firing, he'd have been in a position to burn the whole thing down if he wanted to.

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
