I don’t see a path for a winning record in 2023.   

Like my late mother-in-law used to say, "What you don't see will make a whole 'nother world."

The team is in flux. There are far too many unknowns to see any path right now, beginning with HC.

Again for the record I would 100% being sniffing around Baltimore to see what it would take.  But thats assuming Jackson would even want to come here

Like they said in the broadcast yesterday, our franchise will be an attractive place to land next year due to having all of the cornerstones in place aside from a QB.  Based on the HC hire, I think that will be the determining factor for whether or not someone like Jackson would want to come here.

The idea of a new HC coming in and doing a mega deal year 1 out of the gate is worst case scenario. Maybe year 2 if they have a good to great learning curve but never year 1. After the Watson swing I don't want to see anyone in house on the buying end of a mega deal anytime soon.

A new and competent offensive minded HC could be competing and winning by the end of the first year with a vet or a rookie, with some luck thrown in. I don't think amyone here now fits the minimum of that so it will hopefully be new faces. Just draft a QB, find a vet if it's not on of the top 2 guys and do it again in 2024 if it's not good enough and until we find a long term QB option.

This year is all about telling us what we need to do better next year. Staff, personel and dumb direction that got us in this damn mess.

I havent followed Jackson and his contract negotiations at all but why would he want to leave Balt?  Thats the epitome of a stable franchise.

From what I read it's mainly due to them not being able to surround him with playmakers. Jackson also represents himself now, and probbaly wants to make a statement in the contract negotiation process. He wants to be paid like Watson.

 

I know he wasnt happy with the Hollywood trade... image.png.d676f642240756b2df384ffd61651e6e.png

A lot of folks said that for the Giants coming into this season. And there they are, right in the thick of it.

Right folks, right coaching... and stay away from injuries.

And it's not like our division is highly competitive anymore, by any stretch of the imagination.

Who are these “some?”  The only player not under contract next year is Bozeman. Everyone here knows that it is time to draft a center or see if mays can do it.

I've been barking up that tree for a few years now.  I like Mayes as a solid IOL depth--IOL#4.  I'd rather draft a center that has played it his entire college career.

It shouldn't take 2 years to turn this into a winning team. It's been 5 years already.

Despite what Tepper and Rhule's dumbasses think, it doesn't take 7 years to make a winning team in the NFL.

It will take at least 2 years if we draft the right QB. If by year 3, we haven’t been to the back playoffs, it will probably not happen with the next regime

    • Well if he comes back, he's signed through 2030 along with Dave Canales. They matched up Evero's contract with Canales.    January 2030 for both. 
    • I also look at his work there and match it up against the planned obsolescence that is part of the NFL as it sits now. Part of what creates parity here is that as a team ascends, the costs of its players go up, the position of its draft picks go down, it's great players age or get injured to often, their assistant coaches get poached for higher positions elsewhere. And even the best of managers can't hold that off forever.  Great managers can only play the shell game for so long, covering one hole in the team while another wears through, betting it all on a small cadre of veteran stars, sifting through the diamonds in the rough, hoping for something great. Sometimes they can do it smartly, sometimes they just break and give in to the wrong contract here or there in a desperate attempt to hang onto something. Sometimes the voodoo juju just runs out and they find themselves catching up to that can they've been kicking down the road and they end up in cap hell for a couple of seasons. And sometimes they're just the Jets. And the managers are also at the mercy of the whole coaching deal... great coaches eventually falter -- their schemes become old school, their locker rooms change. It just all wears out over time and that's good for the whole of the league.vReally, did we want the Patriots to have yet another decade of dominance?  
    • By just about every account he is extremely impressive in an interview setting. I don't think he would be getting so many interviews if it was just about ticking a box. I am not saying some aren't trying to hit that bird with a stone too but I think many of these teams do have real interest. One does wonder if his on field results have kept him from getting a few of these.
