whatdrought Posted December 31, 2019 Share Posted December 31, 2019 How many firings have there been so far? - Cleveland - Washington - Carolina - G-men Am I forgetting any?

Chicken Boo Posted December 31, 2019 Share Posted December 31, 2019 Marvin Lewis would be perfect for the Cowboys, but Jerrah would never do it. Lewis would have that defense humming and delegate the offense to a competent OC, just like he did in Cincinnati. He rose one of the worst teams in football from the ashes to become a perennial playoff team. I can only imagine what he'd do with the amount of talent currently in Dallas. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought he added quite a bit of talent in a very short amount of time, especially considering the talent level of that team when he took over. I know theres more to building a football football team than just acquiring talent. But I’m still a bit surprised. I felt like Dorsey at least brought some respectability back to the Browns. I mean, people were talking about them going to a freaking super bowl ffs. ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Less about record and more about Rodgers. He was really out of sorts this year. Missing throws that were second nature to him in years prior. Maybe age has caught up with him, but that offense should have been blowing people out if he was hitting his WRs with consistency. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. K Posted December 31, 2019 Share Posted December 31, 2019 Aaron Rodgers was missing his best WR for a good chunk of time this year. He also has old man Jimmy Graham at TE and not the one of yesteryears. I think McCarthy was part of the problem but the improvement on defense has been more surprising to me than Rodgers slight drop off. Also the running game has been pretty solid this year (top half of the league maybe). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shad Khan will just spend time on his super yacht, what does he care The 2018 Jags, 5-11. The 2019 Jags, 6-10. Both the jags offense and defense were in the 20's this season. St Doug finally did a smart thing by jettisoning Hackett and hiring DeFilippo for OC. Foles at QB went 0-4, 3 TDs, 2 INTs. Minshew went 6-6, 21 TDs, 6 INTs. Still, I don't foresee a bounce back, gonna be interesting to see what they do this next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IMO, they need to get rid of Foles (i.e. get as much possible for him) and go with Gardner Minshew. I'm not convinced that Foles is anything special away from Doug Pederson. 1 hour ago, ALF said: They want to see what they can do without the heavy hand of Coughlin which is smart.
