Bad news for an old friend

Ron wouldn’t have pulled Rodney Pete until after the 3rd game, minimum. Smith would have done something to have ended up in Ron’s doghouse. With the 2003 completely stacked roster, he would have won 7 games and missed the playoffs. If he were to have made the superbowl, they would have lost by 3 scores, or more. 

Fox went toe to toe with prime Bellicheck and Brady in the superbowl… with Jake Delhomme (still doesn’t get cred for being absolutely clutch in big games when he was on)… and came back from a 10? Point deficit after halftime… took the lead, but then just fell short. 

That was the biggest game in franchise history, against the GOAT and Bellicheck in front of the world, and we almost won. During that era, nobody made a comeback against the Pats. 

I love Ron, but Fox has him beat. I’d love to have seen what Fox could have done during the Cam and Luke years.

They could have tanked for a QB, instead they won a few extra games they should have never won. Now they mostly likely have to stick with Howell and sell their next HC on building with Howell at the QB for the short term.

Wish we had Howell we’d be playing for something tomorrow

Titans?

That entire Speculated list is questionable. Bills/Jets/Titans don't seem likely at all, would more so be a surprise. Bucs are more likely than anyone else on the list, but I bet they wait to see how other moves shake out before they make a move.

Ugh. Well add Washington to the list of Head Coaching vacancies that are FAR more attractive than Carolina. Herbert in LA. Howell in DC. Honestly the only job that may be worse if you're a HC candidate is New England. How do you follow that act?

Meh. WAS is a poo show brewing rn. They’d do well to just promote EB. Ownership will give him whatever he thinks he needs to succeed. Calling Howell a franchise guy is a stretch at this juncture too.

Bieniemy has been a disaster.

The Dolphins were straight up mocking his poo offensive scheme and flat out said that Howell getting outside the pocket and making something happen was the only thing that concerned them.

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
