Why? Becasue he traded a first rounder RT mistake for a pick to get a WR to replace his second+ rounder mistake in AE? If stewy doesn't resign that draft year will turn from Hurney's best to yet again another average one if not bad one.

My point is, we can sit and point at things all day and say whether Hurney is responsible for the blame or props but ultimatley, and msot importantly the wins have not been there with the team he has fielded so far, he not the only one to blame but some of you tend to ignore or excuse any BS frm Hurney then all make these lame homer threads when he does something that we don't even know will pan out.

Wait for the wins is all I ask.

the exact same thing can be said for those bashing Hurney every opportunity they can get despite the good things Hurney has done, with merely a few examples of the bad.. While ignoring it's clear the coach was very much responsible for the knee jerk reaction in 2008 and 2009.. John Fox was given one last chance by JR, and failed.

I think some people, like myself, think there is more than enough reason to be patient for those wins since it's pretty easy to acknowledge the change in atmosphere from the John Fox "I'll take what I can get" era to the Ron Rivera "step up or get shipped out."

There is a middle ground.. It's just interesting to watch two arguments go in extreme directions just to overcompensate to make a point..

I 100% agree but do you see what is going on around here? We jsut traded a first rounder tackle from four years ago and people start hurney prop threads? lol. Right now I'm kind of pissed to be honest. I'm not 100% blaming hurney but I sure as hell am not giving him props.

      So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?

      Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.

      Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
