I'm going to say didint happen....this is one of those pieces of speculation sprinkled next to facts....... That Trigger gets pulled, ESPECIALLY after taking a QB in round 1...I know we cut Jason Campbell and Brandon Weeden that year, but we had also signed Vince Young and Tyler Thigpen as well as brought in Conner Shaw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReggieCamp Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 Jimmy is VERY guilty of reactionary management. But moreso, he's guilty of just hiring the wrong people. Seriously, who have we fired that we really wish were still here? Some of you Sashi disciples will say Sashi, but other than that, I got nothin.

Reginaldm9 Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 I wonder how Myles is gonna feel after reading this. Don't think he's going to be in the best of moods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DawgX Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 As optimistic I am about our future, I will certainly be cautious about my optimism considering we still have Haslam as our owner. At least until he proves to be trustworthy, which he absolutely hasn't yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MWil23 Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 I thought the one part of the article that was very clear was Farmer and Pettine intentionally passing on the "green dot" moneyball guys completely out of spite in their 2nd season. It was blatantly obvious at the time and even more so now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reginaldm9 Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 Nothing more irritating about this than realizing the ineptitude of someone whose "earned" a billion dollars when it comes to organizational structure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FGK Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 This is fascinating to me. Because apparently our "analytics" focus back then, was basically on being a smart football team? Like, I don't see anything here that smart organizations haven't been doing for like 8 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ReggieCamp Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 Yeah, that Guardrails thing is fairly cringey. The underbelly of our suck will continue to be exposed, but I'm quite ready for all this to go away. Maybe we'll get to talk about playoff games that we're actually playing in. But in the meantime, we get to read excerpts from Joe Banner's memoirs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t, I think one issue with Jimmy was thinking he could truly run the football aspect like a business feel like Jimmy came in and thought he could do that but the football side of this is a completely different kind of beast in business, it might be smart to have everyone report to the owner but in football you truly can’t. In a job you can hire and fire employees and it want have any major lingering issues. In the NFL it does. I think Jimmy is realizing he can run it like a business and got a GM to run it properly like it should. God thing Dorsey is the Golden buddy boy. He will be the lead car on jimmys motorcade to Canton Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
