Originally posted by NCommand:LOL. You're only looking at things superficially...most injured team in the NFL. Even with an imbecile like O'Neil, you think this defense would have been historically bad with the original projected lineup? I don't...yes, they are still missing a dominant pass rusher...and yes, Kelly's offense isn't helpful and O'Neil would be putting everyone in poor positions to be successful and is horrendous at teaching fundamentals. But talent wise, with health, it certainly had a chance to be pretty decent (to start a rebuild). But these factors are why O'Neil has got to go. With Kelly on offense, he found some parts this year as well, produced overall numbers despite far less talent than Phily, and now will finally get a top 2 pick for offense. When was the last time we had that?
But my main topic of conversation is on the FO changes and direction.
So I get the idea of a clean sweep. What you're ignoring is that Jed/Paraag will be leading that with no real football guys left in the building. They aren't exactly "connected" to the football world and in-circles. So, good luck with that.
Love ya NC your always so positive lol.
That roster day one was botten of the barrel regardless of injures. I don't see why they can't hire a football mind to find either the GM or HC? Mike shanahan has ties to the yorks?
The fact that chip has regressed, not improved since becoming a HC is a red flag...I don't want to rebuild this team to fit around chips system, it's not sustainable at the NFL level and his defenses have been piss poor since day one. This isn't college where you can rack up 50 pts a game. There's got to be adjustments and I didn't see any of that from chip especially in 2nd half of games.
Keeping people in the same roles only prolongs the inevitable and building a team around chips system isn't imo a way for this team to succeed long-term or in the short term for that matter.
Fire them all!!
