Well damn who should we hire?

again, a young offensive mind.   and both windows made sense to it (Rhule and Frank).  

not retreads.  not old guys.   I haven't spent the time to invest who we should because we are going to be stuck with Frank for 1 more season.

motons contract gets real expensive after this season I believe

Yup, just go with the younger and cheaper clone. Eat some of his cap and get some picks. Win win

And that's my issue we will be "stuck" with Frank for 1 more season. Tepper doesn't realize he's wasting years for coaches who are not the answer short or long-term.

 

Again I don't trust any HC he hires. It has to be a HC who has full control and I don't think Tepper will ever allow that to happen.

I don't wanna trade Moton.

Christensen at LT is definitely an option but I don't know that it's the best long term option.

Why, both Moton and Ickey are very tradable in this scheme. Whatever, no one in charge will do anything halfway decent so it's just us blowing smoke anyways. There isn't a player on the entire roster I really would care if they traded, it's just the pain of knowing any draft assets received will be wasted in the end anyways that makes it pointless I guess.

Again.  Problem was Tepper gave full control to a college hack who had no business being a NFL head coach, let alone have full control of personnel decisions.

Because he actually does work in our current scheme and we've already got enough rebuilding to do without making it worse.

Then spend the year building up Ickey at LT and trade his but for a first. He looked worth a 1st at the end of last year. OGs shouldn't be that expensive and it's not like Ickey can't play in all schemes out there.

Ain’t u that feller who smugly said not worry about the preseason performances and that signing Miles Sanders was good 

Yeah I have respect for Mr Scot, but he torched me for wanting Wilks last year too.

I don't want to trade Ekwonu either. I just want to move him.

Don't think I torched you (and sorry if you felt I did) but I still don't buy the argument that Wilks would have turned things around.

Nfl insiders were reporting it as well.  

There were tweets on all four of the prospects. Young was the the most often, but there were guys who said Reich loved Richardson, Stroud and Young, which conflict with each other. We’ll never actually know because you don’t even know what tweets are for clicks and who the insiders are and whether or not they were sending out false messages. All I know is that we appear to have done something wrong and I have a really hard time thinking that an all star coaching staff including Reich would let an owner choose the QB for them.

Hard pass for me on forgoing a LT value to have him play a position that could be filled so easily every year in the draft and free agency. They should have traded him as a LT when they switched the oline scheme and he no longer fit that position.

Yes as he was literally turning things around.

I get it but that's where I gotta disagree.

You can't get rid of a guy that quick, especially someone out of rookie contract.
