Ya, Jerrell isn't hiring based on coaching ability. He hires based on fealty.This aint happening. Jerry wants a puppet. He will hire the next great flavor of the day...ie like Al Harris...someone like that.
Hurts is the kind of quarterback that needs an innovative coach to be reasonably effective. Belichick needs a great quarterback to make him reasonably effective. No one can predict who the Giants quarterback is going to be halfway through this season, let alone next season. The Cowboys are the only maybe for him and that’s highly unlikely. I think Belichick is done as a head coach.The last thing we need is Belichick going to the Eagles with that aggressive GM. That's a tandem we don't want to work together.
You got that right. There is no way they hire a 72 year old coach.Improving this team is in the front view, not in the rear view mirror. Bill Belechick has been one of the greatest head coaches in NFL history. But he’s 72. Tom Landry was 64 when he was fired, and although it was handled poorly, his time was up. Bill B‘s time is up IMO.
Besides, I think the Bill B talk is mostly leaked by Jerry’s people to keep the angry fan base thinking meaningful changes are coming. They aren’t. At least until Jerry either dies or steps down and hires a real GM. As long as JJ is the GM, he will never again hire a HC who could steal some of his spotlight and/or credit.
This is exactly the right take and why things will not change until a new ownership group takes charge, but we are stuck in purgatory because that will never happen.Improving this team is in the front view, not in the rear view mirror.
