He'll be here next year

I think so too. Anybody who doesn't think the potential lockout in 2011 will have a major effect on all NFL business transactions this offseason really hasn't thought things through. That lockout looked only slightly possible two years ago. Now it is very possible.

He'll be the first coach in NFL history to have coached nine seasons with the same team without a single set of back-to-back winning seasons. That's pretty amazing.

Not as amazing as the fact that somebody had so little of anything resembling a life that they chose to research that. THAT IS AMAZING.:D

So is the plan to not have a head coach heading into the 2011 season just in case there is a lockout?

Seriously?

What he means is that signing someone to a multi year deal this off season could be incredibly bad business as there is a potential lockout on the horizon. JR might see it as fortunitus planning that has left him with his head coach's contract expiring just as the lock out is due. That way if a lock out DOEs occur then he currently has no contract in place for a head coach, meaning he is not paying anyone to do squat all.

In the event that the lockout does not happen he can say goodbye to Fox and then hire someone else in the 2010 post season.

      Adam Schefter: Panthers getting trade calls for Andy Dalton

      By strato · Posted

      To kick this up, The Athletic has a really comprehensive piece out where pretty much all QB questions are addressed. It is worth seeing.  https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/7083539/2026/03/04/starting-quarterback-projections-free-agency-draft/?source=user_shared_article I’m putting something specific here but it should have a thread or something. It is an extensive exercise.  This is a dense write up with a lot of column inches used, about the Jets and Murray and Reich, all this stuff.. then it goes to backup QB and there is Dalton.  I am pasting that part: As for Dalton, Reich is installing the offense he was trying to run in Carolina in 2023 before he got fired, and Dalton was with the Panthers then; he’s an ideal option as a veteran backup to replace Taylor. Reich said this about Dalton in 2023: “The way he's throwing the football, the way he works through progressions, the way he handles the operation. … Since day one (when) he walked in the door, I'm like, 'This guy is starter-worthy.' You guys know I've said that all along. He's, in my opinion, one of the best 32 quarterbacks in the world.” ——— That’s true love lol. I never heard any of this. Pretty crazy I think, considering how the year went.   Anyway the dream is not dead. .

      I’VE FOUND OUR WR3 (Rashid Shaheed)

      By Car123 · Posted

      The Seahawks traded for wide receiver/returner Rashid Shaheed at the trade deadline. He proved to be a key acquisition. Shaheed returned a punt and a kickoff for touchdowns in the regular season and had a 95-yard kickoff return in the postseason. Shaheed, though, is scheduled for free agency. So, the 12 games he played, including the postseason, might be the extent of his time in Seattle. Adam Schefter of ESPN reports that Shaheed and the Seahawks are not close to an extension, and the expectation is that the two-time Pro Bowler will hit free agency. Shaheed has 153 receptions for 2,243 yards and 12 touchdowns in his four-year career to go along with three punt return touchdowns and a kickoff return touchdown. He ranks 13th on PFT’s top-100 free agents. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/report-rashid-shaheed-appears-headed-to-free-agency
