Dragonborn10 Posted May 5, 2017 Posted May 5, 2017 ....their next step should be to identify themselves as an ownerless club.....Boy Danny is right up there with Plastic Puss Jones.....checkbooks bigger than brains...........Pegula is on his third HC and just turned the entire organization over to a first time HC, and that is just the NFL team ... You should not throw stones at black kettles, or is it glass house pots???
Heavy Kevi Posted May 5, 2017 Posted May 5, 2017 Pegula is on his third HC and just turned the entire organization over to a first time HC, and that is just the NFL team ... You should not throw stones at black kettles, or is it glass house pots??? I think it's "people in glass houses... sssink ships" Or maybe I'm wrong. https://youtu.be/o5WnXHA1-s8
K D Posted May 5, 2017 Posted May 5, 2017 GM-less team? We have a GM-less city! We don't need no stinkin GM's, fire'em all!!

You should not throw stones at black kettles, or is it glass house pots??? Jones has won a couple of Super Bowls and seems to have built another potential perennial playoff teams. People that don't think Jones know what he is doing have to be a bit on the slow side.
GunnerBill Posted May 5, 2017 Posted May 5, 2017 Jones has won a couple of Super Bowls and seems to have built another potential perennial playoff teams. People that don't think Jones know what he is doing have to be a bit on the slow side. This latest team is Stephen Jones and Will McClay more than Jerry. He obviously gets credit for letting them do their jobs but Stephen Jones is a good strategic brain and Will McClay is a really solid talent evaluator and as a former coach works very well in understanding what his Head Coach feels he needs. Basically after years of being a laughing stock and lurching from short term panic option to short term panic option the Cowboys the last 5 years have gone back to being one of the best run franchises in the league.

Seasons1992 Posted May 5, 2017 Posted May 5, 2017 Maybe they'll jump on Whaley now that he's available. Well, they DID allegedly interview Rob Ryan, so they clearly like ex-Bills personnel.

Yes. Whenever the Boys have had success it's when Jerry steps aside. Everything goes downhill fast when he starts meddling. As far as the Washington GM thing goes it's definitely interesting. We could probably do the same here. Lets be honest. Pegula has handed the keys to the franchise over to McDermott. McDermott runs the show here. He will essentially be the de facto GM as I see it.

jeffismagic Posted May 5, 2017 Posted May 5, 2017 Stephen Jones was on PFT Live last night and he said Jerruh always has the final say on everything - they (he, Garrett, scouts) just give input What has happened is that the smartest people near Jerry convince Jerry that their ideas are his ideas. It makes everything work much smoother.

The line of demarcation occurred over the few years in which they dedicated high draft picks to construct the best OL in the game. Stopping the bombastic owner from drafting Manziel and instead taking Martin for the OL demonstrated that they were going to take a more football substantive approach than a marketing approach. I agree with you that Stephen Jones has done a good job in setting the direction for the franchise. The son acts more like a mature daddy and the showman daddy acts more like an impulsive and immature boy.

Call_Of_Ktulu Posted May 5, 2017 Posted May 5, 2017 The Redskins will return to laughability after Cousins bolts in FA next year leaving them without a QB again. Interesting. The only link left now is that weasel Russ Brandon. Look up the only creatures that survived the meteor that killed the dinosaurs and you will see where Russ Brandon came from.
CanadianFan Posted May 5, 2017 Posted May 5, 2017 Look up the only creatures that survived the meteor that killed the dinosaurs and you will see where Russ Brandon came from. It IS a valuable skill. Is he holding summer camps on survival skills? That'd be a great second career option for him.
OldTimeAFLGuy Posted May 5, 2017 Posted May 5, 2017 ....admittedly, the Deadskins are a MODEL franchise.......have NOT had a GM since the days of Bobby Bethard........so this would be a non-issue....................
Dorkington Posted May 5, 2017 Posted May 5, 2017 You have to submit plans for reorganization? Does not seem something you could demand of independent companies. Personally, I tend to look at the NFL as a home owners association, and the teams as home owners.
