Nah.

But hey, I still get to laugh at your pathetic attempts to get people to take you seriously.

Quick tip: If you have to make up a fake persona to get people to listen to you, that's pretty pathetic.

lol, another thread that judges GMs by the ever reliable metric of interpreting draft picks and literally nothing else

Gettle""""""man""""" was even worse outside of his disaster drafting, though. Genuinely hated within the organization, and made utterly inane moves re: player contracts.

People just got overly excited that we had cap space, so ignored the fact that we had cap space because we starved ourselves in free agency and drove key players away with nickel-and-dime bullshit.

I have a lot of respect for Mr. Scot, but Hurney is the right GM for us RIGHT NOW. After FA and the draft, the new owner can do what he/she wants to do.

Having somebody who doesn't know what he's doing is never the right call, not even temporarily.

It's not like we get to hit a reset button after Hurney is gone. Whatever moves he makes during this time will have lasting implications.

Suppose, for example, that he trades next year's first round pick to draft a lousy player. The NFL is not going to undo those moves just because we changed owners or GMs.

The sooner he's gone, the better.

It's a concern.

You have to figure Hurney knows he's not guaranteed a job with the next owner. That means he has to try and do something to show that they should keep him.

If he keeps a level head, maybe that's not too bad. But given what we now know that Hurney has a penchant for crazy projects that people have to try and talk him out of, the potential is there for things to really go off the deep end.

So yeah, the thought of Marty Hurney trying to impress somebody scares me.

I'll say what I said before. I'm just hoping that whatever damage he does is minimal.

Hurney isn't the greatest but he's proven to be a better drafter than Gettleman. If getting rid of Dave is what it took to get rid of Shula I'd say it was well worth it, wouldn't you?

Jesus, there are gonna be some actual suicides at this place if we win Super Bowl LIII with Hurney in charge. The level of vitriol is so personal, the grudge so unyielding, that people really might hurt themselves (or worse, a loved one) if things don't go their way.

 Sad but true. There are some here who are actively rooting for us to have a bad season.
