And actually the timing is good. If BY wants a big pay day he needs to play big time.
If he sucks then he's Jimmy Classen'ing us to the #1 pick.
Honestly, I hope if plays big time.. I don't want anyother team reset.
I mean your making my point. We love to make definitive statements, like "RR was a bad coach" or "Cam cost us the Superbowl" when really there is much more to that.
We were probably 1 pass rusher away from advancing in the playoffs this year..
We also have 1 more cheap year on BY's contract. This is the year to spend.
So we need someone.. (please no more Viking players...)
The whole being able to block a job application thing that the NFL does is very weird..
May as well just make up weird titles to always avoid this.
"He's not our QB coach, he's our Supreme Architect of Aerial Warfare & Quarterback Command"
drive me bonkers when people play arm chair GM AFTER THE FACT.
Like, those positions pay very well... if you think you have what it takes, get off the internet and get the job!
Yeah Icky getting hurt really messes with what we need to do. I think we could go OT this draft as a result of that injury.
But we have cap space and I have enough trust in the FO to fill the holes prior to the draft at this point.
I dont think he was ever sold as a offensive genius.
He was sold as the QB 'fixer'.
I would say that the jury is still out on that. He has this next year to make BY a top 15 QB. If he does that then I think he earns that title considering that last year BY was talked about being the biggest draft bust ever.
