Nobody will care if the Chargers win or perform well in the playoffs.

It isn't just that.

It's been rumored for a while now that the Spanos family isn't happy with him and might want to move on.

If they think they can get Sean Payton, they won't need much of an excuse.

"You played some players for a couple quarters in a meaningless game and none of them missed time in the following playoff game but we're firing you anyway" is going to go over very well with folks lol.

I mean owners are weird beasts so hey...

People are kind of used to the Spanos family doing stupid sh-t, so I don't know that anybody would be too shocked.

Cardinals should have released Murray instead. Their former HC and former GM will find gainful employment long before the Cardinals are relavent again.

Then again, it's the Cardinals, one of professional sports' most moribund enterprises.

Kingsbury probably gets another college job.

I'm not so sure about Keim getting another NFL job though.

Well, at nearly the same time they extended Kingsbury, who was in trouble this time last year, they extended Murray, whose future was also in doubt this time last year.

It's brilliant, really.  We should fire the coach and unload the QB, but instead, let's extend both!

They are better off without either one but they also just extended both of them and their QB.

I have no idea who would want to work under that ownership or with that QB at this point. 

It has been a poorly run franchise for as long a I've followed the NFL, and hey were the team I grew up rooting for in St. Louis.  Bidwill senior was tight.  His coach and GM could do anything as long as it didn't cost him any money. 

Now his son is running the show and he doesn't seem as tight, but he also seems clueless.  His only upside, if my observation is correct, is he doesn't micromanage the football operations.  But he doesn't seem to be able to identify who can run the football operations, either.

I honestly thought they were going to unload both Kingsbury and Murray after the talk in the dying weeks last year.  You are correct, they would have been better off without them both.

      With the first pick, don't draft a QB? Draft a DE? C'mon!

      This draft is 2023 all over again, it's not hard to see. QB's who don't grade out as high first round prospects while at the same time, the following draft class looks to be loaded with elite QB prospects. Drafting a QB just because you need one (or making a bad trade to make said draft pick), when there isn't one worthy of that draft pick, is how you ruin franchises, just look at us right now.

      I upgraded to the S24+ a few weeks back. Very happy with it.

      LOL... Yet again proving you can't look below anything than what you see on the surface Mock drafts ARE NOT draft grades They are what people think will happen.  They are mocking teams taking QB's in the top 5 of the draft because that's just historically how drafts go regardless of the grades on the QBs.  Almost every draft expert, even those mocking QB's going high, have said time and time again that none of these QB's actually grade out as those type of picks. This is again, where I say you don't like to actually read what I have to say, because I already explained it. 2022 the exact same thing happened, mock drafts had guys like Pickett and Willis going in the Top 5 because that's just what teams usually do, but GM's listened to their prospect grades and knew they weren't worth taking that high, so they didn't. It's not to say QB's won't go that high this year, but it's to say that they aren't graded out as elite QB prospects.   And yes, I've never said I'm not a T-Mac homer. But me being that doesn't change that he will be the highest graded offensive player in this year's draft, at a position we haven't been able to solve since we lost Smitty.  Taking him makes all the sense in the world, my bias aside.
