2017 Hot Seat

[Troy McClure]

Podesta isn't the GM tho.

They should really take a long hard look at Scot McCloughan, give him full autonomy and let him work his magic.

Their GM used to be the team's lawyer.

John Fox and Hue Jackson seats have to be scorching

Hue Jackson is 1-25 as Browns HC. That has to be worst stint as a HC for a team in NFL history , Right?

John Fox coaching everyone

Hue Jackson should just stick to being an OC. Wade Phillips is a good DC but a not so good coach.

Hue can be someone’s OC next year.

Norv's Disease.

Rumors that the Browns are courting Peyton Manning, which probably means Sashi will be chasing ambulances, DePosta back to baseball and statwhackers making the excuse "of course Moneyball didn't work, it's the Browns!"

Norv actually won games.

Norv actually won games.

Hue has a a more virulent strain with complications than the name sake of the disease.

John Fox coaching everyone

Theres a reason the Broncos won it all as soon as he left town.

He's still living off the Super Bowl he made with the Panthers.

Risky to have Manning be the GM/president right off the bat with no prior experience, especially in a volatile situation like this. He is obviously a very smart guy who has more foot ball knowledge then everyone on this board combined but this job is not for a rookie executive (or coach). They need a seasoned guy like McCloughan or Baalke IMO. Or see if Ozzie wants a new challenge and help resurrect the team he starred for.

As the Cowboys flounder, it's time to add Jason Garrett to the list.

The real question is whether Jerry could find a good coach to come to the Cowboys. It's a tough gig. Jerry will pick your coordinators for you. Jerry will pick which of the 53 are your active players on game day. Jerry won't let you discipline any player.

 

[Gene Parmesan]

Which is why Jerry won't fire him.

I also believe when Jerry said he wanted Garrett to be his Landry/long term coach.

They'd be doing a lot better if Zeke hadn't been unfairly punished.

 

[John Price]

He's a clown who abandoned his players in the interest of his own selfish ego. Not once, but twice.

@Gene Parmesan was a huge advocate of the way he bolted teams like Pitt, saying "it is part of the coaching process". Well, yes, but there is also a more dignified way to part than what Graham did. He treats teams as stepping stones and often bolts one job for another. Very surprised he didn't bolt the ASU job when the time was right and abandon his kids again.

They definitely exceeded my expectations for this year. I think he deserved another year.

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

Bears players look like they have quit and Fox/coaches are making mistakes it seems almost every drive at this point

Hue Jackson now 1-26 as Browns HC

Matching 08 Lions 0-16 season seems very real possibility

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

John Fox and all the coaches (Including Fangio) cant go away fast enough

5 games left in this miserable Fox era

 

[rangerssharks414]

Well done.

They'll clear everyone out again.

They'll clear everyone out again.

Which is just plain stupid, the organization is never going to go anywhere with this much turmoil. The thinking was when they Hired Jackson/Brown, Haslam would give them at least 4 seasons to do something.

It's already been in turmoil. They've not been on the same page. If Hue isn't fired, he'll resign.

It's already been in turmoil. Hue has not been on board with their drafting strategy. If they don't fire him, he'll resign.

Good point, but for the love of god - hire someone like McCloughan or Dorsey as GM who knows what they're doing.

Nope, all the way up to the top again with this one, most likely. Hue wanted Wentz and Watson. They fired all the scouts who agreed with him.

Huh? My point was to fire upper management and bring in a seasoned exec. Sort of what the Colts did when they were a joke and hired Poilan.

Misunderstood. I don't know if Haslam will allow someone that kind of control, though. Whoever turns it around will likely have to do so in spite of bad management above them.
