NFL teams handicap coaches all the time when they know the coach's time is most likely nearing an end. and we have seen that here too. NFL teams don't try to win as many games as possible every year.

Ding Ding Ding. You kick the can when you finally become a team that can do something and you want to maximize your win now opportunity.

Winston is kind of like Sam Darnold. Only that he is capable of having some really good random days. But Winston is going to be Winston and a be nightmare too often.

but are talking negotiating skills and deal making. Hard to call someone a badass when their tiny resume here consists of that stinker. We have DJ Moore and just drafted 2 young WRs. Robbie's only had one actual good season in his entire career. And Robbie comes out taking up more cap space the legit #1 WRs in the NFL? Dumb dealing like that will impact the big picture. I can get saying the jury is out on him. But it's hard to call him much more than that at this point IMO.

Robbie Anderson must have the greatest agent in NFL history then....if that is what the badass was able to get it worked down to.

you talking about the negotiator of the Robbie Anderson contract?

Jets are the smarter play than Carolina and I don’t think it is close. They have a young QB they just drafted. and will be adding 2 more top 10 picks in the draft. They also own 2 second round picks. All 9 of their picks are in the top 5 rounds. That’s a lot of new good talent they could add and the rookies are often some of the best Hard Knock story lines. if the angle is young rebuilding team? Jets > Carolina. We basically have a lame duck HC, one draft pick in the top 100 and Sam Darnold as our QB.

We have the worst QB and HC combo in the division with no OL.

Well his twin brother that goes up and speaks at Panther pressers isn’t a natural salesman. that dude is a nervy, yammering, bullshit guy that can’t sell anything once questioned.

relax

Jerry Jones probably at Sean's house right now. I still don't think he has told his coach he is safe yet has he?

In 3 years with Peyton Manning, John Fox's worst record was 12-4. It's been a QB league for some time. I think we see that over and over again. Payton without an elite QB like Brees would have been fired long ago. At least Pete Carroll can speak the truth.

David Tepper really has screwed this whole thing up. This is all a prime window

Payton retiring? Or just leaving the Saints to go to a team better situated to win?

bottled water!!!!

any vet that is good would only be coming here to be overpaid IMO. Why else would you come here. Or have some local tie where you are basically signing up to make life better for your family. You basically are signing up for the end of a lameduck and then a new HC's rebuild.

Specially Akers who just came back. If it wasn’t for his multiple fumbles. The game isn’t even close.

No worries. We got Sam Darnold. Basically a rookie. Now that he isn’t on the Jets he will surely flourish. It’s the JayZ model. Gotta remember the JayZ model. Just more time is needed.

If the draft charts mean anything….a future 2nd and 3rd isn’t enough to move up for the 26th. So it would cost more. That makes me a hard no on continuing to trade draft capital

Ok. But I am not arguing that he isn't referencing Martz in that comment. He easily could be. I also think there are two separate things at play. 1. Prioritizing scheme over personnel (which Martz is a textbook example of with Olsen). 2. HCs that allow great players to go off script and adapt as they see it in game. I think Greg is clearly referencing #2 and the pros it. I know Martz is guilty of #1. Maybe he is guilty of #2 and not allowing that too.

wonder how many years he got

Martz prioritized scheme over personnel. No doubt about that. The Bears publicly acknowledged that mistake once Olsen did historical things here. They should of altered their scheme once the best receiver became the TE. Instead they stuck with the scheme and traded the TE.

I mean, he is talking about a lot more than one coach. He is talking about head coaching in general. What he views as positive. Maybe he is talking about Martz with that one line. He isn't just talking about Martz though in his point. Just like he isn't talking about just Andy Reid. Or just talking about his staff in Carolina. What side of the equation do you think Matt Rhule falls on? The guy who has been criticized for wanting to be too hands on with every aspect. That blasted him former MVP publicly for taking a built in audible. A coach who had opposing defenses running the WR routes for the WRs all year long? I'd say Matt Rhule doesn't trend toward the side of head coaching that Olsen is praising.

seems reasonable.

I do not think this is the Matt Rhule way.
