Jesus Christ its really gonna come down to Steve Wilks vs Steichen.

That is such a wild final 2. One an older defensive minded huge mistake waiting to happen; one a high risk/high reward young OC.

Hum it is now being reported that a “mystery team” is watching the Payton situation. It might be time to saddle up? Wow

Could McCarthy be available soon?

I would take McCarthy for a 3rd if he brings Dan Quinn as DC.

Ok. Give me results. Results on the field since he has owned the team? I beg to differ, the product on the FOOTBALL field has continued to regress and he refuses to do sane and rational things.

One of the most important things, in my opinion, that a new owner...or any owner for that matter...can show is patience.  Let's say he pulled Irsay or McNair no one really wants to work for them.  Not learning would mean Payton would be hired, sure Rhule was the wrong choice, but he wanted to make a splash and he did!  Many were on board with that when we hired him including me; and I don't think him showing patience with Rhule was a bad thing.  But I'm with you, I want results, that's why I think he is learning, he knows he can't just hire someone like he did with Rhule, he and the organization are taking their time, doing the interviews, doing the research and hoping the make the right decision this time whether its a splash (Payton) or what we, as fans feel is a dud (Wilks) but "RIGHT" none the less

No he's not. When has Wilks had even a decent QB? Never is the answer. 

When has he punted the football at midfield on 4th and 1 against the greatest QB of all time in a win or go home situation?

twice is the answer.

I'm already mentally preparing for it to be Wilks. At least then it'll be expected and I won't feel as let down.

Yep and then we'll get months of fluff about how much the players love him. Then at some point in the season we'll get the doors blown off by a real contender and we'll get the same excuses again. We know our Carolina Panthers by now.

Mentally prepared to read one morning Breaking News : Wilks to be the Panthers Head Coach

So that way, when I actually see Steichen to be the Panthers Head Coach, i'd basically faint.

So what you are saying is Wilks will suck without a QB to carry his ass just like Rivera. 
We all know Rivera was being carried by Cam and Luke and we are seeing in Washington what kinda coach Rivera really is. 
Mediocre. Which is you precious Wilks ceiling.

Not sure that applies if it’s a trade

It would probably be something like this:

CAR Receives:

Mike McCarthy

DAL Receives:

Sean Payton

NO Receives:

2023 DAL 1st Round

2023 CAR 3rd Round

It would probably bypass the Rooney Rule.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      For starters, and again I am not sure what his capacity is in the media or how connected he is to the team, but I posted above Al Wallace says he is "absolutely" getting 50+ a year and he deserves it.  I obviously strongly disagree with it but it feels like like season when the team is slow leaking info to gauge the temp.   Secondly nobody on Gods green earth is going to sign an extension making less than he is making now.  Thats just crazy talk.

      No. Physical tools alone aren't enough. There are plenty of examples of draft busts to support that. Aost all of them had the physical tools and that wasn't enough. But Bryce is a perfect example of the opposite. Absolutely elite intangibles aren't enough either. If you simply don't have the physical abilities all the football intelligence and work ethic in the world won't be enough to overcome it. Just look to the sidelines every Sunday. We call those people "coaches".

      As much as I despise Billy B, his philosophy on QBs is how I would approach things if I were a GM. You always keep looking for your next starter.  He has Bledsoe, who got injured and his backup ended up being the GOAT. Even while he had that going, he kept getting his next guy and developing them. When Brady got hurt, Cassel stepped in and went 11-5 and they missed the wild card by dumb luck. Who knows how far they would have gone if they had gotten in. Jimmy Gs career started in NE. There were others, but he always kept looking.  You can't be afraid to keep looking for your next starter, but it looks like we're afraid to look for more than a marginal one. If you're going to offer a $25m contract with incentives, that screams marginal QB. It also screams you're just a transition until we find our guy. After a 10 or 11 win season, he's not accepting that offer. And then you're in a Daniel Jones situation. Do you pay for a year of success and pray it wasn't a one year wonder?  To this point, Bryce has really produced nothing, yet for whatever reason, our FO has not even sniffed at the idea that we need a real QB room with real QBs. Dalton was never starter potential, Plummer was a joke. KP certainly isn't, neither is Grier.  Our approach to the QB room needs to be one of strength not fear. Bring in guys who can compete or who you think can compete. This is THE elite position, in an elite sport, paid premium salary, where production matters. Either you produce or you can lose your job. It's not mean, it's just the reality of the position.  And I'm really just tired of our candy ass approach to it.
