What scares me most about post-2011 season and beyond?

Recommended Posts

I heard Marty on 1110AM while driving home after the game. He was almost giddy about the first half performance, as was everybody at the stadium was for good reason. Here is my concern. I think Marty Hurney looks at this team and thinks we are set at d-line. I think he looks at this team and thinks we are set at CB and safety. I have a sick feeling that Marty will look back at this season and point the blame at injuries and lack of an offseason. I think Hurney will look at Armanti's one 30 yard punt return this season and see potential. I think he is the type of guy that will view the first half tape of all our games and think we are set at many positions that need an upgrade. I do not have much confidence in Marty to see our depth, defense and special teams for what they are. I think our flashes will make Marty overlook some of our needs.

What is it with people and Marty Hurney? I've said it before, I'll say it again: he's one of the better GMs in the business, easily, when you consider the fact that every GM in the league has some bad misses. The Patriots blew it on two entire drafts, people.

Furthermore, Rivera will have a very large say in who we pick up or draft, as Hurney is one of the few GMs that actually works in tandem with his coach rather than going his own way.

We'll be fine.

Pretty sure our coaches will tell them exactly which players suck and need to ride the pine next year, thus needing an upgrade.

Captain, all of our DTs, Armanti, etc should not see an NFL field anymore.

Damn Captain looked bad.

But I think Marty stands pat at DT.

There will be a pretty proportional turnaround as far as the players on this team go.

I'd put everything I own on that fact. Rivera won't put up with this poo!

Disagree with me all you want TRD, for the most part you just like stirring the pot for no reason anyways.

After seeing his mist recent interviews, I have the utmost confidence that Rivera will do what needs to be done. One way or another

I sure as hell hope he listens to Rivera's needs. The recent influx of San Diego outcasts seems to point towards that.

I honestly believe that Rivera and Mr. Richardson have a "behind closed doors" agreement, that excludes Hurney... Maybe I'm wrong, but I just feel that it's the case.

Rivera knows the issues.....Rivera will make sure Hurney doesn't foolishly believe this DL is set.

Hurney isn't dumb either....he doesn't look at the rookie DT play or watch our #2 CB get picked on all game and think things are great.

Rivera CLEARLY knows the flaws of this team....he is a lot more upfront about what he sees each Sunday. Marty won't be able to live in la la land.

Marty did what Rivera wanted on O this year.....next year I fully expect him to follow suit and do the D next season the same way.

    • Reasonable. I mean I didn’t see a clear path to relief this season myself. As I have typed already, I think the QB FA class is more interesting next season and that draft is supposed to be stacked as well. There just weren’t many options this year.  When you have Tepper to contend with you have to tread lightly around this unless you are 100% certain and willIng to stake your job on it.   There were a couple of outings that helped Bryce a lot in terms of  thinking maybe he can do this, and if you are a supporter you are giving them a lot of weight. You are likely to think just get him some more help and he can do that every week. Which I think Tepper falls into that category.  And the playoffs, division champs, regardless of the way I see that, the supporters will also give that a lot of weight.    And the big one, the atmosphere In BOA for that WC game, Tepper had to be soiling himself over that. If you pulled Bryce out right now you had better be right and your new guy had better make the playoffs and look good doing it or you will be gone and your chance to build your old team back into respectability will be gone too.  So here we have Pickett on a one year deal, and Grier and King. I understand it.  
    • Well, seeing as we play the Lions at home this year, pretty sure that rumor isn't true.
    • Totally possible imo, I also caught that snippet from Morgan where he said “If” we sign him. The lack of competition says otherwise tho 🤷‍♂️
