As much criticism as he receives - and some of it deserved - I have little faith the owners will find a better replacement.

Condoleezza Rice has been rumored to be in consideration for that job for years.

He’s their piñata. That’s his function. Like the road manager for a band. Paid to be the asshole so everyone else can act like they are nice people.

the longer you do that job, the more enemies you gradually make.  eventually, the enemies outnumber the allies.  I am guessing that is where we are now.  I have no problems with Goodell.

Same.  And the Owners have VERY little reason to have a problem with him.

Just a paid spokesman, nothing more.

This. His primary job is just to run interference for the owners and be their puppet while also working as a mediator between 32 of the biggest egomaniacs on the planet. It really doesn't matter who is the figurehead in that position, it's the owners pulling the strings behind the scenes anyway.

      Boy the flyers look good early. Lots of bad plays and slow start by our team. Hope that changes before the score changes.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By strato · Posted

      I guess I should have stipulated outside the sacred cow.   I complained from year one that Bryce should compete for and win the starting job on his own merit but no he was just handed it. I have been right there with everyone that wants competition.  But I don’t really have a huge problem with it for this season the way it has gone because where are the viable people we don’t have to trade for? I actually am okay with tiny hands Pickett because he is so close to Bryce arm strength wise and to be honest, skill wise. Probably. And it is only a one year deal.  That also takes into account that the QB class is looking stacked next year and if Young fails miserably then we get either a reset or a real competition and there will be more guys that I would like looking at in the FA QB class next year as well.    I sort of accept where we are this year and look at it as another treading water year (at QB). I just want to get to next year with some clarity. More than anything. And they did empty out the room. Again, who was really there for us?  And I know it would not be a true competition at this point anyway. They are giving him the year, like it or not.    Also I don’t give a poo about winning games IF he sucks and or goes down after sucking because draft position and that stacked QB class.  And I want out from under him So Bad.     So I guess it is several factors that lessen my anxiety over his backup this particular season.    I am not trying to convince anyone, but you asked. That’s how I look at it.
