So that should tell us all about where this is going to end up, plus 20 years of history. Even hiring a GM and saying he's going to evaluate everything from the top down and keeping the coaching staff intact for another year would be better than hiring the coach first, GM second. That's not the way the smart organizations play it. And I could get behind that if the person truly has full control over football operations and Snyder stays out of it. Lately the trend is Coach first. In San Fran Shanny hired Lynch. In Oakland Gruden hired Mayock. I’m not saying it’s right or wrong I just want it to work.

bigdog44 Posted December 29, 2019 Share Posted December 29, 2019 Now I’m hearing (nothing reliable) that Lewis will be hired by Snyder in a front office capacity. Based on what? He was given control of the 53 in Cincy and got fired a year (Maybe 2) later. He’s made some players out of guys with checkered pasts, but again is this how Snyder plans on re-engaging the fan base??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He didn’t have final say, but he had a lot of influence during the draft and free agency. Edited December 29, 2019 by turtle28 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LoganF89 Posted December 30, 2019 Share Posted December 30, 2019 What’s y’all a honest opinion on Rivera, I don’t know too much about him other than he’s a defensive head coach and that he had 3 winning seasons in 9 years with Carolina, though a lot on the losing seasons could be blamed on QB play and O coordinator Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He will love, respect and treat you like a man. He we will put you in your place when needed. He gives respect and demands it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Josh Norman rose to his peak under this guy by being treated as a underdog. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And spent 6 of his 9 seasons under the .500 mark like you said. And thats what he is. Instead of going with some youth or taking a chance on guys like Lincoln Riley or Ryan Day. We retread a old nag standing in line at the glue factory to try in win the Kentucky Derby. Edited December 30, 2019 by PARROTHEAD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
