I'm surprised the Cowboys are #1 I'd have to imagine it dropped off significantly after the Dan Marino era ended...actually looking at their records, I should clarify that it's after the vaunted Jay Fiedler (and former Viking) era . In his 4 years they never won less than 9 games. Since that time, they've only been able to win 9 or more 5 times (out of 18 years). So they were still pretty good early in Brady's tenure...it's only when they tried to upgrade from Fiedler and fired Wannstedt that they truly fell apart. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swede700 Posted June 9, 2022 Share Posted June 9, 2022 Good luck to him. I guess if you want to hang on in the league, Houston is a good place to go now that Cleveland and Jacksonville actually seem to be making progress. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Talent-wise, they are now in far better shape than when they were drafting guys like Justin Gilbert and Corey Coleman. The whole Watson thing is a different argument. The PR hit they're taking is certainly something to behold, but I don't really blame them for taking the risk, since Baker really isn't a long-term answer. His upside, at best, is probably our Kirk Cousins...and I'm not sure he could even be that consistent. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s not inconceivable that he doesn’t finish out this contract. Even if Cleveland doesn’t wind up paying all of it, they’ve emptied out their draft cupboard for the foreseeable future.

So maybe they'll just go the Les Snead route then. 🤣 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swede700 Posted June 10, 2022 Share Posted June 10, 2022 The typical post-draft turnover under new regimes. Haven't seen it yet, but I know he retained most of the staff, but it'd be nice to know who specifically did not stay, even though it probably could be deciphered by the new hires.
