A GM thread

Everybody loves to pour it on Hurney because our team has only won more than 8 games 3 times over the past 10 seasons. The 11th season is far from over.

Please copy and paste these questions and bold your answer

,

Is Hurney more than 50% responsible for the 2010 disaster and how so?

Should GM'S and head coaches be held accountable together or seperately?

What is the biggest difference in the superbowl team in 03 and the 7-9 04 team?

What was the biggest difference from the 08 team that went 12-4 and the 09 team that went 7-9?

Everyone loves to say 3 winning seasons out 11, do you realize we have a winning record from 02-11.( if you throw out the 2010 lockout prep season where we had a lame duck headcoach)??- 2010 lockout prep year our record under Hurney is 77-67.

The worst move Hurney ever made was wasting a first round pick on Everette Brown. In hindsight the Otah one was pretty bad too, but nobody was complaining about it when we went 12-4 that year after finishing the previous season 7-9. Other blunders include wasted 2nd round picks. One was Edwards the other was Clausen.

I don't mind people bashing him or any player or coach as long as your objective about it.

In order to say he's terrible and his approach is terrible please consider how other teams are built.This is an excellent website to help you understand that.

Hurney is 58% responsible for the 2010 disaster. He is only 54% responsible for the 2011 disaster. The new coaching staff has limited Hurney's liability to the current 2012 disaster in progress to 47%, but taking history into consideration, experts are projecting Hurney's responsibility for next season's disaster at over 50%.

How did you arrive at those percentages?

He basically has managed for lack of a better word to get us one good season every 3/4 years or so

The feelings of 03 are well behind us and 05 & 08 weren't that special minus Smitty in 05 and Double Trouble in 08. He's overly clinging onto the only guys he was successful with wasting cash, not going after FAs that can help us out at areas OF NEED, and most importantly has not produced results in well over 3 years now regardless of getting lucky enough to get Cam or not.

It's a boiling point scenario and if we finish sub .500 yet again, it may hit

    • I have been looking for a dropped pass list and all that comes up is QBs. And team stats. When I do receivers I get the passing stats for a handful that threw passes this year.    I wanted to be accurate but anyhow I was looking because thought I remembered reading where T Mac had more drops than XL this year.  One of you many smarter than me people here,I would appreciate it if you know how to pull that up, please do. Thank you.    And yeah I know that isn’t all there is to it I just thought it was interesting.  Of course what the hell is a drop lol.   
    • I agree with this and I think it's worth mentioning too that Bryce is not consistent on his placement and especially velocity and that in large part is driven by his footwork. We all know XL doesn't have the best hands and I don't know that he can overcome that. Cam always had the heater that just hit your hands and sank into your grip, where Bryce has some that are harder thrown, some soft. Bryce stepping into a pass looks so much different than that hop throw thing he does. I think XL really needs to hit the jugs machine and start learning how to catch all these different touch passes. TMac and Coker don't have these issues. If XL doesn't get some work in he's going to be out of the league in the next couple of years. 
    • I think most people like XL from a personal standpoint. I don't think he's stupid either. Although if we are being realistic he is lacking in football IQ at this point in time and it cannot be disputed that he has not taken working on his craft seriously at all times given the body of work on the field. It speaks for itself. I myself have defended him at times given the circumstances of our QB room. But he is now in his third year and 25 years old. We are not in a position as a franchise to go around babying anyone especially first round draft picks. He needs to take his position and his football career seriously or he is going to end up selling used cars somewhere. I hope he realizes this and takes an extended break from social media because that mess certainly isn't going to increase his net worth if he ends up out of the league. And these hanger on types will disappear quick too once that money dries up and it surely will eventually. We'll see how he responds.
