What do Kevin Green Trgo and Capers have in common

I suppose I could listen to all you Madden players/ football experts or I could just listen to Falcons head coach Mike Smith: read #8

I've always thought Trgo's problems were Fox. In fact, I would venture to guess the defensive coaching exodus last year was a reflection of that. After all, how many other "quality" NFL organizations has their entire defensive staff practically quit! I couldn't imagine that happening with the Steelers, Patriots, Titans, etc. Amazing and yet its Trgo who has to catch all the crap from the fans and not Fox.

either way it wasn't working, sometimes fans dig into people within the organization far more than they should. But a change was needed.

Mike Smith said that Trgo may be the best defensive line coach, and to his credit he was a good defensive line coach for us in 2002... Thats a fair difference from being a good coordinator. Besides, cussing out players in camp and threatening to head butt people may or may not produce a stellar defense, only time and wins/losses will tell.

That's Mike Smith's opinion. Opinions are like assholes, everyone has one.

The key comment he made was Defensive line coach, not Defensive coordinator

    • Strange, every news article and tweet I just searched all mentioned waivers. It is definitely his sixth year of at least 6 games. All I was trying to think of earlier was at the vet min could he beat out Bryce in camp next year lol. He's kinda got the old Darnold issue where he can obviously launch deep balls and qb run at a level Bryce will never achieve, but it sounds like he would be content being like a Josh Allen backup who doesn't throw the whole game plan out the window if he has to come in for a series or two. If we had him and for some reason still wanted to start Bryce he would kinda do what Justin Fields was doing the other night with Dangeruss, coming in for designed runs and maybe some play action/triple option rpo things to go deep. That would be so obvious and sad though. At least Russ can still sling it 40 yards in the air with a flick of the wrist
    • Too late to edit above but the quote is from this Diane Russini article in the Athletic: https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5941684/2024/11/23/russinis-what-im-hearing-the-day-the-jets-fell-apart-and-the-broncos-rallied-belichick-best-fits/ Okay.. there you have sorry I left that out the first post.  Also waivers keep the contract intact. That is the major difference in released and waived. It's all in that link from the other post.
    • Okay so I am reading something in The Athletic and it says that Jones had to pass through waivers. So I don't know. I looked this stuff up when we were number one there all offseason and I thought it said 4 years in the league got you vested, as they call it.  Vested gets you out of waivers as I understood it. I probably got something wrong, but when I think about the slack quality of journalism these days I wonder about that. So I went and looked, again. Well, well.  For everyone: "When a player has accrued at least four seasons in the NFL, they are considered a vested veteran. When these vested veterans get cut, they are released and their contract is terminated. When a vested veteran is released, they are an unrestricted free agent that can sign with any NFL team, and the team that released them doesn’t need to provide any additional compensation." It runs it all down here, where the quotes came from: https://www.profootballnetwork.com/waived-vs-released-nfl/ As far as Jones, the team turned down his 5th year option so I knew that meant he had 4 years in, because they re-signed him anyway, after turning down the much cheaper extra year.  The Athletic is owned by the New York Times so I shouldn't be surprised. That paper was an institution once upon a time but they let their standards go.
