oldno82 Posted October 30, 2015 Posted October 30, 2015 Can anyone imagine what he must be thinking at this point??? Quote
tsylvester Posted October 30, 2015 Posted October 30, 2015 sure, what moves can he make in the front office, coaching staff, to turn this thing around. and how does he get me to stop calling him Biscut, it's all gravy.... Quote
papasmurfbell Posted October 30, 2015 Posted October 30, 2015 I'm so stupid. I keep making the same mistakes with FO personnel over and over. Quote

Spen Posted October 30, 2015 Posted October 30, 2015 Maybe I should make more vague threats about shopping the team if changes I want don't get made to the stadium. Quote

oldno82 Posted October 31, 2015 Author Posted October 31, 2015 All good posts. I'm hoping he's not thinking of selling. I don't think that's his style but I do know he felt really beaten down with the Ray Rice thing and talked about wondering if owning a team was worth the hassle. He's got to be feeling down now and probably more than a little at a loss as to what to do. Quote
vmax Posted October 31, 2015 Posted October 31, 2015 Steve's not a quitter.He wants to stay out of the spot light. He will leave this to his people to turn around.They are good people. Quote
thundercleetz Posted October 31, 2015 Posted October 31, 2015 Steve is probably thinking the same thing as everyone else: is Dean Pees the right guy to lead the defense? We need to start building a WR corps like the Steelers do instead of mixing old vets with undrafted FAs. How do we fix this secondary? Quote

Name 5 defensive starters on the patriots without looking it up. If they can find em, so can we. Quote
papasmurfbell Posted October 31, 2015 Posted October 31, 2015 Jones, Hightower, Mayo, Chung, Ninkovich Quote
cravnravn Posted October 31, 2015 Posted October 31, 2015 I know you looked it up, they have 11 no names, yet they get it done, Quote
papasmurfbell Posted October 31, 2015 Posted October 31, 2015 Art's brother. I remember them drafting Hightower, Chung, and Mayo (BTW same draft as Joe and Rice). I have watched 3 NE games this yr and Ninkovich is brought up- every game. Also his name amuses me. Quote
cravnravn Posted October 31, 2015 Posted October 31, 2015 Point is, we have as much money tied up in Webb and Smith as new England has in their 11. Quote
papasmurfbell Posted October 31, 2015 Posted October 31, 2015 They are smart with players as they get older. Seems like they have a better system for dealing with them and in relation the cap. Aren't you the one who wants to pay everyone the most money? Quote
TBird Posted October 31, 2015 Posted October 31, 2015 With a SB trophy as recent as 3 years ago, there's nothing wrong with the front office. SFfell apart too after losing their SB team to FA and retirement and I read an article that evenSeatle's window is closing now. They'll go the way of GB, NY and Ravens after winning the SB. It's the system called the salary cap allowed by the CBA. It keeps teams from staying on topforever except for NE but they're in an easy division with the best QB and coach in the gamebut they get by cheating a lot. The front office is ranked in the top 2 of 32 teams placing the 2d most dominant team on thefield since in the last 15 years. That said, all of Ozzie's assistants have failed as GMs like Savage,The Shack, Kokinis. DeCosta scares the shit out of me when Ozzie leaves. He told me at a Nest 1 meeeting a week after the Oher draft after I told him he fucked up that draftand he should have drafted Nicks that Nicks wasn't as good a althlete as Oher. I said what. Well all Nicks did was become a great weapon for NY and being the go to guy in their first big SB victory and getting into another one. Ravens didnt even sign Oher when his rookie contract expired or Kruger the Beast. Yea, they gotSB rings but Ravens won in spite of them. Oher was beat by his man on JOe's mile high miriclepass but he side stepped him and moved up in the pocket throwing a bomb to JJ for the win. Oher allowed a sack in SB 47. Kruger was seldom used getting 2 sacks. He was pissed about only getting a few situational snaps but Cleveland is doing the same thing yet paying him $45Mto be a siutational rusher. In his first year he did nothing there. But DeCosta is being over paid now as much as most GMs to keep him from leaving so he getsOzzie's job. Quote

OutsideRzAcE Posted November 1, 2015 Posted November 1, 2015 What intrigues me about bisciotti is that he has proven he will make a move based only on guys and in spite of logic or common sense. Did anyone anticipate him firing Billick when he did? If I recall it was right after he gave him a contract extension. Bisciotti' reaction to this mess is going to be super interesting. I think peas being gone is assured but outside of that I am very curious what he does with joe and harbs Quote
papasmurfbell Posted November 1, 2015 Posted November 1, 2015 Billick got canned a yr after a new contract. There was definitely heat when Billick was fired but i was expecting midway through the next season. Quote
