The question is whether Steve is more Art or more Mike Brown in his decision making? The FO needs a whole new makeup and that requires Steve to make the hires needed to get that going. Art did that originally. Steve has been living off that legacy for a long time. Now he has to make the calls on his own and ride with them.
Why is it Joe needs ppl so much talent around him? He is paid like a guy who can make guys better. So thats on him. How about maybe Ozzie was never that great. This FO was made by Belicheck. He put all the peices in place in Cle. As the scouts and oter talent evaluators left maybe Ozzie was not capable of hiring the same quality and grooming them the same way.
Disagree. He was waiting until the ball was thrown bc he didn't want to be an inelidgable blocker. He watched the ball thrown and started up field. After the first block he looked for another one much further down field.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G7zP4YRzvCs Watching a few mins of the NE/GB game this play jumped off teh screen at me. MArty has Lamar. He can run and he can throw. Him making the thorw to Collins who would have open field and lots of blockers would be hard to stop. His play calls with Jackson are so obvious and lack imagination. On Grubbers point of Joe being lazy I wonder if he would try to block like Brady does here.
Joe needs to be gone this winter. June 1 at the latest. I think you have to give Jackson all the way through 2020 to stand or fall. The team also will be rebuilding and getting old guys off the roster. That is a lot of losing. If at the end of 2020 Lamar has shown he isn't the guy then you need to search for the guy and have them go through the growing pains. That is 5 yrs.
It goes to Joe not being a team player. He is a me guy. He is in this for him and his paycheck. You are right on all this points. Look at that contract Joe has and imagine the money being spread aroudn the team. I don't believe the words coming out of Joe's mouth for asecond.
Disagree to a point. They are underachieving but not horribly so. This roster was not built to really win. That said I think Eric needs to go also. Every player you listed need to leave. It is time for the full rebuild. Weddle and Jefferson are crap. Carr while not great is serviceable but why sink that much money into him. Suggs is a FA and there is absolutely no point bringing him back. They should have cut ties a long time ago. All the WRs were 1 yr deals. They all will get raises next yr so whats the point keeping them? Draft a RB. I said Jackson would set this franchise back 5 yrs but since you have invested the picks in him you have to play it out. I think the Ravens will be a bad team for some time. I say if they fire Harbs Marty has to go with him. I would let Roman OC the rest of the season. Let Rossberg be the HC.
