Dave Canales is one and done.... part 2.

It’s a difficult position to be in trying to defend this team at any level, roster, coaching, front office or ownership.  I’m not even sure what needs to be fixed first because I’m not sure you can fix both the roster and coaching at the same time.

We either go cheap on the roster while trying to put together a competent staff/front office combo or we stick with the staff we have and retool the roster?

Continuity has to come from somewhere.  We can’t have constant change in all phases of this organization.

If I had to guess I’d say keep Canales and give him a chance to build the roster the way he wants.  QB being the most important position, he at least deserves to put “his” guy out there.  Best we can hope for is that he learns from his mistakes and figures it out.

The roster is so bad it’s going to take multiple years just to get back to a baseline of average starter talent with some competent back ups.  And that will require a competent FO… good lord we may never be good again.

Again, no one forced him to take the job. and again, no one else considered him for it. 

What coach that we interviewed this cycle would have succeeded with fixing Bryce?  Because it’s pretty clear that was a term of accepting the job and the organization was already committed to going this direction given the previous investment we made in him. And hey, he probably thought that there was some small chance that building up the little guys confidence like Mike McDaniel did for Tua would pay off, but it was pretty clear after game 2 that he realized it’s just not going to happen. He’s already told us he’s put Bryce back in blowouts to make sure that his 36 year old journeyman doesn’t  get hurt unnecessarily, which is the same thing as saying that IDGAF if this 23 year old number one overall pick gets Alex smithed on the artificial turf at BOA.

I work nights at the hospital and sometimes I have easy nights. 

what’s your reason for being awake at 1130?

It's not that late? Heck I didn't crack a beer open until 9:30. PM.

Yeah but we’ll never know what actually happened with reich, because I think at this point we all agree no former nfl player would have met Bryce and drafted him. 

I would 'so' love to hear Reich's version of the truth.

    • You’re playing madden we’re talking real football stuff…. He does have you seen his special on internet he def thinks he’s getting paid 
    • Without the team having an identity kinda hard to predict what they value.  They either are really trying to build a balanced team, or preparing for another swing at qb if Bryce doesn’t pan out. Seems like we value the o line but the $ spent there has been underwhelming besides Lewis, you could say it’s because of injuries but still hasn’t been worth the investment. as already stated, the whole handling of Bryce young as a whole has been ass backwards, we spent the years we’re supposed to take advantage of having a qb with a lower cap hit, building the team up to be adequate. now It appears, key word appears, the saints have done it correctly, which is painful to even think about. Regardless, I hope the front office has paid attention to qb contracts recently, such as Tua, Kyler, Daniel jones(pre colts) and don’t settle for subpar qb play at franchise qb rates    
    • This is the flaw in your logic.  Cutting 3 of our best players will somehow move us from whatever we are to "compete". Even the most Young super fans are not predicting a ceiling above top 10-12, and that will not nearly cut it.  Someone will need to break the log jam of QBs getting nothing or North of 50. Our qb is at best a middle ground, lets hope it will be us that also manage to pay the worth at about 100 over 3 years.  And before you jump me, yes that is only of he improves.
