Wait, how can you not possibly see this is as a good thing? Jerry's the GM. It's the right decision to force them to change, or at least attempt to change, if they're (i.e., Wade and Garrett) unwilling.
He is not a coach. He shouldnt be demanding or forcing anyone to do anything when it comes to the game itself, the preperation for the game or who the qb is.
His job is done. There are lots of things a gm should be doing, like making sure we have another punter available in a heartbeat, scouting young running backs just in case, making sure they have a backup plan if the deep snapper is hurt etc...
He shouldnt have squat to do with gameday personell decisions.
You end up with Drew Henson starting when Jerry starts demanding and forcing things.
and the most important thing, if the players in the locker room are used to brad and are fine with brad then making a change is another possible problem in the locker room.....Now if they hate johnson and think he is not capable of playing better, maybe the offensive players will be happy, but if bollinger turns the ball over 5 times then what?
and what if bollinger is terrible? Then you go back to johnson?
and finally what are you telling the coaches here. I dont think you can do your job so here is what I want you to do.
If Im garret and I see jerry start forcing stuff behind the scenes like this just like he did when garrett was playing, I cant wait to get out of here and so will every other good coach.
I just think it stinks, if in fact Jerry forces a decision. If the staff thinks bollinger is the man vs the giants that is fine, but if it is jerry then some really really bad times are on the horizon.
