Just say no to:

  • Retreads
  • Defensive coaches
  • Bilichick tree
  • Anyone older than me (turning 50 next year)

We need a young progressive and  aggressive offensive type mind. Has to be able to adapt.

I'd add the Andy Reid tree to that.

FYI: Dan Campbell is 43.

I wouldn’t exclude defensive minded guys. Some of those guys can still become good HCs as long as they can find an offensive minded guy to run control of the offense. See Mike Zimmer.

The only teams with better records than us are starting Drew Brees, Tom Brady, Aaron Rodgers, Deshaun Watson, Russell Wilson, Lamar Jackson, Patrick Mahomes, Jimmy G, Kirk Cousins, and uh... Josh Allen.  Notice a pattern?

We're going to war with essentially a rookie UDFA.  One i like and who is improving, but is still quite green nonetheless.  But if you were expecting 11 wins after we started 0-2 because Cam lied about the extent of his injuries, you're the delusional one.

7 wins means we lose 2 of

2-8 Falcons x2, 1-8 Redskins, 5-4 Colts.  Thats not happening 

 

He should win all of those, most likely lose Seattle.  Thatll be 9 wins with going for 10 wins vs the Saints at home, which is winable with our history

Record is not the lone reason some fans want Ron gone. It’s a totality of going 1-7 last year, keeping Shula for too long, letting Washington call the defense, starting 0-2 this year, not finding a punt/kick returner, getting blown out by SF after 14 days off, going for a 2pt conversion last weekend, run defense has been pathetically sad for weeks, etc

The 0-9 is essentially entirely on Cam's performance last year and to start this year so that's hardly relevent with him gone now.  But firing a coach because his 3rd consecutive DC had a bad year after the last two got poached is a fireable offense?  Special teams roster issues, which almost certainly fall more on Hurney and Blackburn is fireable?  But okay, we got blown out on the road by a top 3 team with much better players, and missed a 2pt conversion.  Sounds reasonable!

ST has been very good. Finding a returner falls on the HC and GM. Starting Cam and losing falls on Ron. If you, I and the media talking heads can see something wasn’t right with Cam since last year. You really think Ron didn’t? And Ron is the guy that see and talk to Cam everyday.

Cam was one of the top 2 or 3 best players on the field in the Rams game this year.

Rivera is the definition of mediocre. Great guy personally, but being a consistent coach to field a playoff team capable of going deep into the playoffs, not so much.

I agree with others that if we hit the 9 or 10 game win mark, he is probably coming back next year. 

My issue is his inconsistency over the years, the lack of a dominating defense given his background and inability to keep the pedal to the metal when going up on a team. 

I'd take Richard, Roman or Saleh if we do fire him. 

Tepper has a lot of questions to address between now and the summer of 2020.... GM, Coaching Staff, QB1, Defense, Contracts.... gotta be the biggest offseason that I can remember...more over than the 2015 offseason.

Something else that HAS to be addressed as well....fan apathy.
