As of right now, I'm not happy at all with this hiring. But I'll give him a chance. I won't judge him until free agency and the draft is over. |
Well the good news is once this doesn't work, because it never does, you guys can be in the same group with the rest of the NFL who only has 1 guy make the decision, instead of 2-3 guys who don't know what to do at all.
Minnesota ran the "Triangle of Authority" with Brad Childres, the BRZ and Rick Spielman. We had a few nice 1st and 2nd round draft picks, but after that it was all trash. We also overpayed for some really bad Free Agents.
So, we got a few guys, but we were so far behind the ball that it didn't really matter.
I feel bad for you guys...kinda _________________

The trophy is named after Vince Lombardi and they're not related AFAIK | I'm pretty sure he was joking, there was a thread in NFL Gen about the mid 90s Browns, one poster thought that Lombardi was referencing Vince, instead of Michael ... we all had a good laugh. |

Is it funnier if you are the 5th person to say that?
Hopefully the guy can pull together good enough players for the coaching staff. _________________
