I feel bad for Lawrence, or Fields. I think there was also an unintended pun...

RpMc Posted January 18, 2021 Share Posted January 18, 2021 Daboll returning to the Bills, and Bieniemy looking like he could be staying in KC... next year might not be a bad year to be looking for a new HC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RpMc Posted January 21, 2021 Share Posted January 21, 2021 Everyone wants the next young guy. I think that's, part of the reason, why Bieniemy isn't finding anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I understand some of the copycat nature of the game, but I hate this kind. It's one thing to get a young guy who has clearly been groomed/prepared for the job, but then you see hires like these and the Zac Taylor hiring previously, where it seems like they are just pulling a name out of a hat or throwing it against a wall and hoping it sticks...there doesn't appear to be any legitimate strategy to it. These types of hires reek more like the hirings of Childress, Frazier and Tice than it does Zimmer.

Yeah, it's sad when I think the Jets did a significantly better job with their hire than a SB champion from 3 years ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Eagles hire is baffling. Hire the guy who was the OC to the OC of the guy you just fired. Crazy. I think the Jets, Falcons, and the Lions made very good hires. The Chargers screwed up, imo, by not hiring Brian Dabol. I don’t understand the point of going from Lynn to Staley. What’s going on in Jacksonville is what you get when you have a football fan running the team. Houston...at this point there doesn’t look to be a good way to fix Houston. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I think Lurie has just screwed himself for the next couple of decades. It's one thing to fire Pederson, but to hire this guy as a result? Mismanagement of the situation is almost too kind of a description. The Chargers had the perfect situation sitting with them in just waiting to hire Daboll...up and coming OC (with significant experience) and just happened to go to HS with the GM...but then the Spanos' had to go all Jessie Spano on it and make a Showgirls type of hire.
