Jon Snow

If he improves its better for all involved. If he doesn't its only temporary pain. He will not be the starter in 2025. It's that simple.

We've been there plenty of times before. Its where we've been stuck since about 2017 in our latest iteration of a team. But for now that's where we find ourselves once again. Well, we hope to get there next season. It's either improvement from Bryce and as a team or 2025 will be a do over in the draft. Except no trading up this time...I hope.

Every coach that interviews will have/need a plan for Bryce Young. The critical answer will be their plan B if and when plan A doesn't work out. Which I suspect that any coach will get 2024 to figure out. I'm sure another qb will be signed off the street as another camp arm will be needed. The only real competition that may come will be for backup qb. The competition for starter will come in 2025 if that is necessary. Which based on this seasons results looks very much likely to happen.

I totally agree. That should have been the plan from the jump. But they've been struggling to figure out if they are rebuilding or making a run. Until Dave figures that out I'm not sure what is going on. He's 5 years behind on making that decision.

I don't like this but it's only fair to interview him. I would not hire him but it's not my call.

Oh no doubt. But folks love to rage on about things out of their control.

Whoever signs on to try to turn this team around will have more difficulty dealing with Tepper than attempting to fix this roster. And this roster is ass. Let that sink in for a minute.

If the rumors are true he's listening to "everyone". What the search firms role in this has yet to be determined.

Everyone should have this mindset. There isn't a damn thing any of us can do about any of this. Getting excited or upset is fruitless. It is what it is.

From what is rumored it seems Dave is listening to too many people. He's collecting data like Google and doing what with it is yet to reveal itself. The only thing we can do is sit back and see what old mastermind comes up with.

He's not and shouldn't be. By Felicia.

The Bears FO sure did fleece ours last season. It wouldn't be a bad place to look for people to pull from.

Anyone interested in this job will come in knowing that one of their responsibilities will be to see if Young is going to be the qb of the future despite fan resistance. Prepare yourself.

It is what it is.

No it doesn't. Nothing about Bryce's situation changes next season.

You're just going to have to let that go. Bryce is your qb in 2024.

This is as plain as the nose on your face. I'm not sure why anyone doesn't understand this. Bryce is our qb until 2025 at minimum.

He doesn't earn his salary here. I'm not a fan of paying an unearned contract to a player to prevent them from possibly earning it somewhere else. If he's not earning his current contract here there's absolutely no reason to give him a raise.

No, no he is not.

No. This is the worst situation for any professional to work in. A micromanaging boss that knows nothing about your job yet is in your office every damn day telling you what he thinks and wants done? Good luck finding someone worth a damn to sign on for that.

They would be fools to trade that for him. Burns will never be worth what they could have gotten for him last year. He's not worth what he has earned to date. I will never for the life ilof me figure out what they see in that guy. Are they so desperate for some flash on that side of the ball? He's certainly never earned that praise. I've even heard the media trying to push him as our best player. It's utterly ridiculous.

His only FA success was Luvu. Remember, his job is veteran scouting/acquisition for this team. Morgan is not someone to lose sleep over if he's not considered. Let the analytics people/search firm come up with the list and see if his names on it. My guess would be no.

At this point Dave would be better off handing the dice over to her. He's come up snake-eyes on every roll he's made with this team.

As it should be. I've started the last 3 seasons with low expectations. Granted that this season has managed to be even worse than I could have imagined. I'm kind of looking forward to reading all of the playoff talk after Tepper hires whatever coach he hires. You know it's coming. It will be hilarious.

I'm not sure what kind of GM Morgan would be but given the two choices I would pick him over Fitterer. I prefer he be giving him advice over Scott. Did anyone catch Morgan telling Scott to be patient on the Johnson pick during the draft night recording? Fitterer was freaking out that he might not get a pass rusher. I found that informative myself.
