This was Reich’s plan all along, correct?

 

Should led to positive results. Game management should improve and play calling. If neither does, I’m good with a complete coaching fire sale. If it does improve, I’ll give them another year. 
 

I still say our biggest issue is lack of talent.

SMH...

it took this long to make that decision...

Fire Reich if Brown succeeds, Frank shouldn't get the credit at all-more like the credit for us being bad, he assemble a good group of guys but he himself is not amongst them.

I don't think Frank hired all the staff to begin with.

All?  No, just the most important roles.  Some lower level staffers were allowed to be picked by the guys the would be reporting to.  STs and OL coaches were holdovers at he request of the front office.

I thought there was reporting that the owner/gm paired a lot of this up....and it wasn't just them hiring a HC that did what he pleased.

Remember what sold Tepper was the list of coaches Frank said he would bring in.  Frank didn't get all the guys he wanted and had some plan B's and C's, but yeah, he had his staff pretty much assembled on paper.

The only thing that's going to make a difference is getting the defense healthy, OGs healthy and hope we can run the ball while keeping opponents under 21 points.  Thomas Brown ain't putting 40+ points on anyone and that's where our defense is at right now.

No one thinks he is putting up 40 with this roster.  If he can go then ahead and promote him now.  We are looking for an offense that has a pulse.  How about at least 3 whole offensive TDs for starters.  Hopefully we see an up-tempo offense in rhythm that gives us some hope and possibly a win.  Also we only have one OG coming back this year our other starter won't be.

Also remember guys, Frank said from the jump that he would "initially" be calling the plays and would hand it over to Brown at "some point." There wasn't a specific date when the baton would be handed off, but obviously going into the bye week would make the most sense giving the offense 2 weeks to get used to the adjustments.

      So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?

      Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.

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

      Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
