Dowdle is tearing it up in Carolina, yet he’s making $1 million less than Javonte Williams. We’re also paying a washed-up Miles Sanders—who’s out for the year—$1.5 million.
Javonte Williams and Rico Dowdle would’ve been a great combo, and we could’ve had both for around $3.5 million a year.
The issue is our clueless front office—mainly Jerry, who has no idea how to build a football team.
The defensive mess is on him too. He should’ve hired Joe Whitt instead of bringing in the old, overrated Mike Zimmer, who didn’t fit the scheme. The smart move would’ve been paying Dan Quinn head-coach money to stay. But no—Jerry does the foolish thing.
I’m tired of this team not knowing how to build a real contender. If our owner would just stay out of football decisions, we’d be competing for the Super Bowl like the Eagles. But Jerry has to get in the way and mess things up.
