Is he though?

Some sort of sexual harassment allegations wouldn't surprise me, but the guy did hire Tony Dungy who won then a SB and then followed him up with Jim Caldwell who also took them to a SB appearance.

While certainly true, I don't believe the Rooney Rule gives credit for previous hiring history.  Irsay has to interview minority candidates for his HC opening and it is hard to imagine that any legitimate candidate will have a thinner resume than Jeff Saturday.

Irsay has hired Minority Candidates in the past so I doubt they would be able to prove he broke some sort of RHULE here. You like who you like and he likes Saturday.

But hiring Saturday wouldn't be anything that someone could say "they passed over a qualified minority candidate to hire an unqualified Saturday" since you could literally say the same thing about all their white candidates as well.

Saturday is just the worst possible candidate from any race of their candidates, so not like this hire would cause any issues for Irsay in that sense.

I'm certainly not an Irsay apologist, but this is one of those cases where (paraphrasing the old saying) I don't think you have to blame 'racist' for what can easily be explained by 'drunk and stupid'.

Ahh, yes, the tried and true excuse of many NFL owners over the years:  Your honor, who could possibly hold me accountable for my decisions?  After all, I'm drunk and stupid.  My lawyers will now submit years of supporting evidence to backup my claim.

He wouldn't need his lawyers to do that.

Plenty of people have seen that evidence already.

      First Goal Game 2024!!!

      Bryce developing before our eyes

      By Loyalty4Life · Posted

      I want to throw in how much easier it is for a QB to develop and improve with a good oline.  Huge credit to the front office for spending the money on our two guards.  Cade Mays also had a 2nd really good game starting at center.  Love how he has developed and hope he's the real deal. Look at what Stroud is dealing with now in Houston after injuries and problems with their oline.  Strouds accuracy has been greatly affected as it seems like he doesn't trust his protection. Canales is doing a great job developing Bryce.  I think the QB whisperer might be for real. And obviously big props to Bryce.  First round pick that looks horrible in his first year.  Different coaches and systems.  Fans and media are calling him the biggest bust in NFL history and he looked like it in the first two games this year.  Gets benched.  Young man keep his cool and just continued to work and only worry about what he can control.  I hope things continue like this and we end up with a great success story. Bryce Young kept pounding.

      This is exactly what we needed to see from Beyce

      Outside of Philly (who currently is #3 in pass defense) the rest of our remaining opponents are bottom 1/3 of the League in that regard.  Let's see what Bryce can do versus bad pass Ds.
