Early NFL offseason chatter

[Mr. Scot]

Side Note: These two are squabbling online over the state of the Cowboys.

Fowler is legit.

If you had asked me prior to yesterday, I'd have said I think he's going back. All indications now though or that he will take one of the available jobs. 

If it's true that he doesn't want to face Dan Campbell twice a year, then the Jaguars seem like the most logical choice but who knows?

But these are guys referring to RAIDERS insiders.

Chance to cement your legacy as a GM by building a team around a great young qb, or go to a team that doesn't appear to have much of a shot of getting a qb this year.  I know what my choice would be.  

More from Albert Breer on that front...

I think OC Ben Johnson is much more ready to take a job now than he was the past couple of years. I don’t know if losing the way Detroit did might lure him back for one last run with Campbell, but I do know his interest in the Las Vegas Raiders, Chicago Bears and Jacksonville Jaguars jobs is real—and Newmark’s emergence as a GM candidate with the Raiders is proof positive of how serious Johnson is (Tom Brady’s been a difference-maker in Vegas’s pursuit).

I said the same thing about the emotion of the loss possibly causing Johnson to go back for one more year, but most of the chatter seems to be saying that's not gonna happen.

Well he botched that whole thing then.  He had the best gig possible begging for him last year, and he ghosted them.  Now he's gonna work for Mark Davis or Shad Khan?  Lmao what an idiot.

Being able to pick your own GM?

Johnson to Chicago

@Mr. Scot I told you. This was the only job that really made sense.

Alright, Caleb. Whatcha got? This dude made Jared Goff look like a borderline MVP candidate.

It was the best job of this cycle. Stacked roster, not a complete idiot of an owner and has a potential QB ON A ROOKIE DEAL. This was such a no-brainer. Plus the Bears GM isn't an idiot like most of the openings.

[Ghostofdelhomme]

Goff also doesn’t hold onto the ball for 8 seconds and had a good OL from Johnson’s first day in the job. It will be interesting to see what he’ll do with crap rb and OL

You were saying?

I am like 90% sure that this Johnson/Caleb pairing will blow up in the Bears' face. Johnson seems to me like your classic great coordinator, bad HC and Caleb is a bust. Maybe they'll make me look like an idiot though.

[ECHornet]

Can’t see Caleb Williams and DJ Moore leading the Bears to the Super Bowl, no matter who’s the head coach.

Only two options that make the bears job look good.  He still would have been better off taking the Washington job last year.
