We have players from, count them four different regimes on the books. The team is four different GM's visions of how a good team looks. And, this one blows me away, we did all of that with Gruden being the longest tenured and Carroll currently the least tenured guy. Sandwiched in between that is a guy who made it less that 1 1/2 years and another guy who was handed the keys after being a low level assistant who's one claim to fame was he took a championship level high school team and burned it down in one season. I shit you not.

Dufus is not selling the team, and as bad as he eats, he ain't dying any time soon. He is the sole common denominator in all of this. I have been saying this for years. He is at fault for the results. Period. He is the President Truman of the team (Truman was a winner though) and the buck stops with him. Period. Want to fix this? Good luck. He could not run a lemonade stand. He can have someone else build a really pretty one, but he knows jack about how to staff one, how to get good lemons, what percent of lemon to water to sugar to add, and how to buy good ice and cups. But he will charge you a fck ton to drink his swill and because he put up his lemonade stand in a place that did not have one, and the place is a really popular vacation spot, people will belly up to the bar and order his lemonade.

And here is the really fcked up part. He does not give a fck. He has his shiny lemonade stand and everyone is patting him on the back about it so he thinks he is a lemonade tycoon. fcker

Pseudoscot wrote: Mon Oct 20, 2025 11:25 pm As much as I'd like the cathartic release of sacrificing a scapegoat, I see a flaw in the OP. Just firing somebody, anybody, isn't the way to move forward. We need to know exactly who to fire. Don't get me wrong, there are plenty of candidates worthy of being canned as (and I use this word very loosely) performances have been dire across the board. A scattergun approach of firing someone just for the sake of it isn't how we get better.

It will also be difficult to replace any fired personnel with a quality, long-term upgrade mid-season. It'll come down to hiring someone who is currently sat at home and there'll be a reason why that is the case, tempting someone from the college ranks who will likely be unproven at NFL level, or promoting from within. None of those options feel like a viable long term solution to help the rebuild process. We've now been burned several times with the shiny interim coach who initially does well, parlays that into a long term contract, and then fails after the new coach bounce wears off.

I don't have the answer but I'd expect a long term strategy to be in place before calling anyone into the owners office and Old Yellering them.

Except Brennan Carroll. Fire his ass yesterday. A strategically shaved orangutan couldn't do a worse job.

At some point we are gonna have to draft some DAWGS with questionable character issues. This boyscout shit is for the birds, we could have traded for Pickens and transformed our WR situation. Just a small example.

Attyla wrote: Tue Oct 21, 2025 7:11 am Again, who the fck are you?

It's chick basketball, it has nothing to do with professional football. The coaches for chick basketball are no where near required to know the amount a professional football coach is required to know. The management may be on par, but absolutely nothing else is even close.

So who gives a fck, it is chick basketball. And if I offend someone for calling it "chick" I absolutely don't give a fck.
