Washington Football Team finalizing deal with Marty Hurney

Snagged Martin Mayhew as well (title unknown as yet)

Mayhew's best known here for interviewing the last time we hired Marty. He's best known elsewhere for being the architect of the Lions team that went 0-16 a few years back.

Washington's had to close their facility due to Covid issues so Marty getting finalized might still be a few days off.

It sure looks like they want to get the number one pick next year.  They will certainly have the staff capable of pulling it off without even trying to tank.

I consider him a bullsh*t artist.  He built his reputation on pure luck and a gift for kissing ass.

a boss asks his underling to do something really stupid or possibly illegal in a business sense and instead of asking “why are we doing something that would kill our business?”, marty’s the guy that goes, “sure thing, i’ll have it done before the end of the day”

i can’t relate to anybody who sees him as a sympathetic character

I guess you weren't around to suffer through all of his tenure, both of them.  The man has scared the franchise and the fan base so bad that will take years for us to get over.

Was the word highlighted a typo and supposed to be scarred?  Or was that the word you intended?  It works either way, just wanted to clarify.😁

It's a typo.  I'm not fast enough on the edit button before it gets locked and your typos live on in infamy.

That's what I thought, just ribbing you a little.  But like I said, it works either way.  He did scare the crap out of us on multiple occasions with his decisions.

ETA:  And scarred us a bit, too.

    • That should have been this year. Tough to sell to anyone worth getting when this crew is going into year 3 on the hot seat. I still think keeping Evero will sink them all after last year's showing. If/when he is scapegoated they need to show improvement or it's likely to be so eone else's problem next year. I do agree in principle tho, it all should have happened after last year's problems. 
    • I've listened to some things that have calmed the "Bryce was flat out terrible" to just "he was really bad" in Week 1. It's Year 3 though, and that shouldn't be the barometer. I've got 1% hope left for Bryce, and that's just blind homerism coming out.  I'm scared that as much emphasis as the team places on advanced stats and PFF that the team *doesn't* think Bryce was that bad in Week 1. Couple that with so many of the QBs in the league looking rough, offense being down in general, and I feel like there's a lot of "what if's" going on in the building instead of facing the music.  Lose Week 2, and we should switch the main focus back to building/churning the roster, evaluating young guys, and hoping our next QB can have a Jayden Daniels level of impact. As we're all well too aware of, QB is a crapshoot a lot of the time. Admit we made a bad pick, and go draft another. And another. Repeat until correct.     
    • I wouldn't want any of those starting as a rookie on day 1.  That said, we need a vet, that is not Andy Dalton, that can be the starter while a prospect grows and learns on the sidelines.
