how did you get cheap from this? He's said repeatedly he'll spend money on a coach. Their primary concern is winning and they pointed out that the winning coaches have come from the assistants, that playoffs teams are built that way, and of course (ugh) that the Steelers are.

Won't sign players until the CBA is done is his stance... has been all along.

I got cheap because it is cheap. He didn't have to say "I'm cheap." It's obvious. He doesn't want to go after a big name because it will cost more. He'd rather play duck, duck, goose, with loser assistants like Perry Fewell that shouldn't be anything more than positional coaches.

So that way we can come back 5 years from now looking for another new coach and say that one didn't work out, but hey, he saved a couple mil.

he didn't have an opinion one way or the other about harbaugh or any coach for that matter. all he said is that money wasn't going to be a factor. he did say that they were going to be a lot pickier about what they expect from them.

wow some people are just fuging stupid.

Harbaugh is a college coach, before the Luck/Harbaugh scenario arose every single one of us would have scoffed at hiring a college coach.

Now he's the second coming of Jesus The Golden Calf of Bristol and JR is "cheap" if he doesn't hire Harbaugh. Jesus what a bunch of pussies

JR isn't getting in a bidding war for Harbaugh, since he's never been an NFL Coach is my guess.

Personally I think the Harbaugh/Luck scenario, while expensive up front would generate enough buzz to more than Pay for the investment down the field. Compared to where we are going, Russ Grimm

So many fans are acting like spoiled brats, have you ever seen somebody run a business before?

Should we hire Cowher since he won the Superbowl 5 years ago? We did that with Seifert I don't remember that working out too well.

He was paying Fox and staff 11.5 million which he said was 5th highest in the league. How is that cheap?

Harbaugh might want more than just a lot of money. He might want more control of a team than we are willing to give. Also, how many times does the man need to say he's not going to be cheap before you believe him? Having the 5th highest paid staff in the NFL is by no means cheap.

      Derrick Brown appreciation thread.

      By TD alt · Posted

      Derrick Brown was one player I never called or even suggested was a bust . Dude was young and hadn't even hit his stride. It takes time to learn the position. The thing I appreciated about him is that he kept improving season after season. He got paid and keeps on going like the Energizer Bunny.

      Joe Person: Ickey is expected to be extended, Mays is someone we want to keep long term, TE, LB and OLB are our biggest needs heading into the offseason

      How many teams coddle their QB the way Bryce has been coddled? I have never seen any other team in the NFL EVER baby a QB the way that Bryce has been.  Bryce was named day 1 starter his first year. It was obvious he didnt deserve it. He wasnt ready as evidenced by the worst rookie year in NFL history.  So let's move to year 2. He's named starter again with no competition in TC and is benched 2 games later. We have the ghost of a backup in Dalton who is so bad he can only beat Vegas and let's remember, the only reason he lost his starting job was a car accident, not because Bryce actually beat him out in practice.  And year 3. We sign Dalton again, who already proved he couldn't be depended on to put an even remotely passable performance on the field, and bring back Jack Plummer, who was even worse than last year. It was obvious he was nothing more than a pretend body in an attempt to create an illusion of some type of attempt to find a backup.  Then we start again with garbage play again and Bryce gets benched with a phantom injury, and the ghost of the ghost of Dalton breaks his thumb on the first drive and craps the field all over again. If we had actually made an attempt to find a legitimate QB2, it's possible Bryce doesn't step on the field again. Bryce is not agood QB and if we had any other mediocre QB, our record would be the same or better.  Bryce is not entrenched. He's been placed, protected and sheltered from ever having to face a  real QB competition in TC. Richardson and Levis both were ass and both were benched and eventually replaced.  Do I expect Baker to face competition in camp? Sure. I expect Tampa to find the best QB2 they can at price that fits their cap and resources and system and get him up to speed. If he's better than Baker, and if he's better by a significant margin, that's best for the team. The ultimate goal is a Super Bowl. Bellichek was constantly getting QB2s with the GOAT as his starter. He knew the value and that was realized when Cassell led them to an 11-5 record as a backup.  You and I may think differently than the people that matter but I will say it again. If you're afraid to bring in a capable backup, especially after the debacle of last year. The starting role wasn't earned, it was given, and that's loser mentality.

      I would have done the same thing.  LSU is a much better job than Ole Miss.  Plus the enormous contract and every advantage a college team can offer in terms of recruiting and facilities and tradition etc
