Shanahan wants to consult? Bring him here, Sir Jones!

[LocimusPrime]

He was right about rg3. So he's ok in my book. I despise bob griffin three.

 

[jazzcat22]

no to this...here is why..

I contend the Bill Parcels came here to set us back 10 years or more, that was his goal. And he succeeded. He switched us to the 3-4, and the defense been screwed ever since. Jerry hired Wade because he was a 3-4 guru.
He thought, Romo, yeah, I'll throw this kid at them...but that part backfired on him...he then quit when he realized Romo could lead them to winning again. So he screwed us by leaving on what could have been built. Wade fails, So another 3-4 so called wonder boy genius in the spawn of Buddy Ryan. Yes he too was working against us. So let us switch back to the 4-3...we need to get new players for this scheme, and we are still haunted by the Tuna hiring.

So no the Rat...no thanks, yet a 3rd person from the rivals....they are spies, I'm telling ya' all, they want to doom us....

Conspiracy theory or not...think about it...ex coaches of rivals, spawn of ex coaches of rivals, Giants, Eagles, and now the Commanders....NO!!!!!

I'd rather have Coughlin.

Well said.

 

[fortdick]

I can think of a city on Ohio where he would fit in.

Pittsburg? St. Louis? Because other than Cinncinnati, there isn't an NFL team in Ohio.

I didn't say team I said city and that would be Cleveland.

 

[Redball Express]

He'll need Elway to be successful...

Or Wentz or a Goff.

I have severe doubts about this coaching staff's ability to successfully develop our next QB.

Nobody could be impressed with the Kitnas, Ortons, Weedens and Cassels we have decided were the answer or the fact we need somebody to immediately be a backup ready and prepared to take over from Romo..

they have just completely failed there.

During the 8-8 seasons were Romo struggled and couldn't get us across the finish line in those years..

we had nobody to put in that might have made a difference.

We had to live or die with Romo.

Never see that in NE or Denver or GB or NY.

They have somebody who can win if they have to play them.

So..

I want to see this change going forward.

 

[noshame]

Just the guy to bring in when you're drafting a young elite QB

 

[Frozen700]

Hell no, we are screwed if we get him

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

So he can destroy us like he did the Deadskins?

 

[fortdick]

I didn't say team I said city and that would be Cleveland.

But Cleveland doesn't have an NFL team, they have the Browns.

 

[fivetwos]

Yes and if we happen to win after hiring him, he would get all the credit.

Who here does not understand Jerry's whole thing is about getting credit?

No one is getting hired here in that type of capacity.

Jerry told us all a few years ago.....the "advantage" to being the owner AND GM is that he can "roll up his sleeves and go back for more" after each failure.

It's absolutely disgusting and we are going to all need to outlive him to have a chance at ever seeing a winner again.

Meanwhile, every jersey and hat you all buy supports his line of thinking.

 

[big dog cowboy]

But Cleveland doesn't have an NFL team, they have the Browns.

I didn't say they had a team. Ever. Why are you so confused about this?

Going to steal from Idgit's awesome post a couple of days ago:

*This* topic we're discussing is the ability of this staff/team to develop a quality player into an NFL starting QB. You're saying the Alex Tanney's and Dustin Vaughan's and Brandon Weeden's and Matt Cassel's of the world prove that they cannot. I'm saying that's not a very fair measurement because it's a string of street free agents, failed draft picks, and old players past their primes. I'm saying that where the organization has failed is in bringing in adequate talent and not in not being able to 'coach up' inadequate talent.

Whats butch davis up to these days? He seems to have a keen eye on defensive talent and would be great in a consultant role imo.

He's a consultant/advisor for the Bucs. His settlement with a North Carolina prohibits him from taking a coaching job

 

[CowboysFaninHouston]

Mike Shanahan, in a very good interview with Jenny Vrentas, says the following:

"Would I really want to be a head coach? Not really. The more I look at it, I think I could help a team more at this point in my career as a consultant. Not as a head coach, but helping ownership put a team together, because you do feel you have an eye for what it takes to win a championship."

Great football minds like Shanahan's do not come around often. Sir Jones, I would absolutely love to have this ex-coach around as a consultant. Sir Jones, do you have anybody better on your staff right now? I would say no.
Please baby, please baby, baby, baby please!

His insights are intriguing:

no thanks. he went to Denver and had Elway. he couldn't recover and build a team after Elway left. in DC he failed. what does he bring to the table?

Still? I thought hat he left the bucs position a while back. Oh well...

 

[KJJ]

He'll need Elway to be successful...

He'll need a great runner ala Terrell Davis to be successful.

 

[LocimusPrime]

Still? I thought hat he left the bucs position a while back. Oh well...

No ur right. He left the Bucs in 2013. My bad

 

[KJJ]

Didn't we already try this once?

An attempt was made to bring in Dan Reeves as a consultant in 2009 but that dissolved when Reeves became uncomfortable with changes Jerry insisted upon after Reeves rejected a job title that would have included him as a member of Wade Phillips' coaching staff.
