Actually I'm not. That's why I expect SB or bust year in and year out. It's the young lazy fans that enjoy the "journey"…the "camaraderie"….the "effort" the team gives week in and week out. It's lame. As I've said before, EddieD would not have stood for this BS. Kyle would likely have been tossed after he lost that Rams NFCC game, giving up his second 10 point lead in the closing moments.
the Jed Yorks of this world only care about the revenue. They have the youngsters duped…
Um, I don't know how old you are, but you should be aware that Eddie DeBartolo pressured Bill Walsh out of the Niners. And very much as tossing Shanahan out now would be a massive mistake, that was a huge error too. Just because Eddie DeBartolo did it doesn't make it right.
Seifert won two SBs after Eddie D pressured Bill Walsh out. And he fired Seifert for not overcoming the Packers, despite winning 2 SBs. That is the standard our coaching staff should be held to, not "well at least he makes us competitive every year".
Absolutely.
Anything short of our standard this year, Jed needs to hold someone accountable.
Three years or so ago John should have been moved from puppet to master. That is the problem. In public it's love and kisses and we decide it all together but in reality it is Kyle (from an outsider looking in) I am not even sure what role John has on D now and that use to be exclusively his baby. If his baby he should have full control on DC hire.
Love the team and the organization please don't get me wrong but this is turning into a Bill B thing where one man and one man only controls all. You can like Kyle and want him here but on the same token I think the GM needs to be the one that makes the top decisions more than what it seems now.
This is another year and I hate to quote people but I think that Gronk interview said it perfectly. This team and it's talent, when mostly healthy show be the greatest show on turf part two three or four. Even in good we very rarely blow anyone out. It doesn't make sense with this supposed roster.
The D is just another story. Let John pick the DC next time.
