Just asking but...

some dumbass had a very similar point... thank god you weren't that dumbass and was being sarcastic.

Did you know that some players shouldn't be drafted or picked up in FA because they are just too good?

[Sam Mills Fan]

Cowher and Gruden are the big names.

Ron Rivera is a big name and Sean McDermott is a big name. Chudzinski isn't a big name. Why do you think the thread announcing McDermott's hire has 121 posts and the thread announcing Chudzinski's hire has 74 posts?

I think that you may be confusing last years FA with this years coaching search.

[Lumps]

We should wait and see like CRA said before we start giving props, it'd be nice if JR acted like he cared lockout or not but I guess only one year of neglect won't damage us too much hopefully. I'm glad to see everyone has confidence JR is able to clean up his own mess.

Signing big names isn't why people will praise the FO, it's the effort people like to see. Signing good coaches is a good effort, but no need to grade anything yet unless you feel like grading effort. I like results myself, then comes the praise. We will see. Personally, I will be looking at what kind of effort the FO puts into resigning our key players we need to keep over the next couple years.

It is relative; compared to Harbaugh, Rivera was not as big a few weeks ago. I was not questioning you really. I am more inclined to Rivera's approach of getting good teachers in here.

I like all the experience that is going to be on our coaching staff, especially if Singletary joins.

[Punisher]

I don't get it. When we don't sign any big names, everybody says that's the absolute best approach. But when we sign big name Sean McDermott, people start losing their poo with excitement. So which is it?

The huddle masses eat up whatever marketing slogans the Panther's FO throw out. Sometimes I agree with them, and sometimes I don't. But at least I am not a sheep.

[ItsNotGonnaBeAlright]

I think the same about Richardson as I did before.....he handles the money. The rest of it depends on the personel.

[Highlandfire]

What is everyone's opinion of Jerry Richardson now? Every seems to be getting more excited every day... Are you starting to get the feeling back that he actually cares?

Same as it always was, I told you guys he had a plan and it was the RIGHT plan! :cornut:

So he has not signed on with Minny yet? I would like to see what he could do with Beason and company.

[JungleCat]

I think JR wants to win but I think he saw that mistakes were made and he is now trying to make it right. Time will tell.

[Mr. Scot]

Cowher and Gruden are the big names.

And commentators :thumbsup:

(for at least one more year, anyway)

[Kevin Greene]

My opinion is he owes us about $30 million in free agent signings.

Open the check book.

[top dawg]

I'll wait and see how he acts when they actually start hammering out the CBA, as opposed to just posturing. I also want to see what he does post CBA.

Regardless how this all turns out, I will never forget how Jerry rolled the dice and came up snake-eyes in 2010. I respect the business side of football, but at the end of the day I want to always see a competitive product on the field (even during the rebuilding years).
