You need a "Don't Care" option in this poll. I am neither happy or unhappy. It makes no difference to me. What matters is what Jerry does once the team building process begins. If he let's all the free agents walk again, while waiting to pick up the scraps in June, what does it matter who is coaching? To me, the reason for hope or despair still rests with Jerry.
Perfectly said.
 
So, the polling of this is as below:

91.9% of the fans are not happy with the hire
8.1% of the fans have Stockholm Syndrome

Is that correct?
Some of that 8.1% is the sarcasm or apathy vote.

Sarcasm in that this choice could be comedy gold or apathetic in that they know it's irrelevant because of the ownership
 
I chose yes because why not? :laugh:
Honestly, I'm not gonna knock the guy until I see what kind of HC he will be. The decision is a head scratcher for sure.
 
Not Schottenheimer's fault, but this is a really lazy, uninspiring hire. Unbelievable really. This franchise is not serious about winning. Fans need to stop attending games, stop buying gear and stop watching. MAYBE then, something will actually change.

Let's gauge everyone's opinions in the heat of the moment .. :D

As always, there's no easy out option on these polls.

If you do not want to vote YES or NO, feel free to share your opinions in replies to this thread.
How do u make threads with polls in them?
 
I really don’t care anymore.

My fandom is hanging by a thread at this point.
 
Really not upset or happy. He has experience of 28 years in the NFL and college. I need to see how he handles the players and team. I could give some emotional answer but reality is no one knows how this will turn out. I give him a chance to prove himself

8.1% of the fans are looking for the future and see light at the end of the tunnel. We also don't believe this team as currently built is a super bowl contender, so there was no need to get a legit HC.

Are you one of the percentage that lacks the ability to evaluate?

They haven't been for a long long time. We need to hit bottom, which makes this a great hire. Jerry is a moron when it comes to football, so he doesn't see things unless they are exploding in front of his face. If this hire achieves that, then it's one of the best hires this franchise has ever made.

Apathy, combined w/ hope for the future if this thing falls apart.

Apparently, you are that very individual.

This team will never be built as a Super Bowl contender under this ownership and their "team building philosophy". The lack of regard for the head coach position is a significant part of that problem.

You may want to brush up on your ability to evaluate before you cast aspersions at others.
 
Who, of any available coaches, has come out and said they have no interest in coaching here? Who do you think we were realistically trying to get and they told us no?
The bigger point is why aren’t we interested in the more sought after up and coming coaches pursued by other teams.
