Vrabel is basically Tony Sparano. Not a fan

 

Tony Sparano never had Ryan Tannehill.

 

That 9-7 Titans team got hot at the right time.
Beating Brady in New England was so satisfying. The Titans defense really kept the Pats offense in check and held Brady to 0 TD’s, 1INT, 200 yards passing and a 59 PR. Although Tanny didn’t play any better. 72 yards passing 1TD, 1INT, and a 61 PR.

Tanny had 109 PR against the Ravens, but only had 72 yards passing, while the Ravens D held Jackson to a 69 PR, but he had 365 yards passing with 59 attempts.

 

Who in their right mind would want to be the GM there?

 

This has to be the most shocking development of Black Monday, even though it’s still early. The decision to pay Jones and let Barkley walk (especially to the hated Eagles) should have been all three strikes on Schoen, at the very least.

 

In stark contrast to Miami, right?

Without real change, 2025 is going to be more of the same.

 

I'm not surprised Giants are keeping Daboll. There isn't a head coach out there that could have won with that roster. The Barkley decision was probably ownership as much as the GM. Can't place blame when it's a collective effort to suck (which it was). Unlike the Jets, I like the Giants and enjoy when they have success. Hopefully they get a quarterback.

 

Yeah, both NY teams are just bad from top to bottom. It just sucks that Miami is not far behind in dysfunction.

I'm trying to convince myself that even with Ross running it back in 2025, that means change in 2026 when things fall apart again.

Maybe?

 

Well the schedule is pretty brutal next year

 

I agree. I’m just hoping that Grier changes his philosophies about OL players and just picks the opposite of what he normally does. Lol

Also, Ross’ statement sounded like he’s not happy with him, but thinks continuity is paramount. I agree to some extent, but maybe Ross will bring in someone from the outside with a different POV.

 

It was supposed to be brutal this year, too. It wasn’t. Preseason SOS means very little.

 

I think we all agree the OL needs to be fixed for real this time.

 

Vrabel to the Pats. Unlike some, I think they need a top GM to make him a head coach I would worry about. Debatable that their current GM is that guy who can move the needle

 

Some reason that fan base is sold on Drake Maye.. havent seen anything from him to think hes the next guy but who knows maybe theyre right.. i agree theyre still far away from looking scary..

i honestly feel like vrabel should have weighed his options more.. i feel like he could have landed in a situation that was closer for him to succeed immediately. Hes now battling the Josh Allen prime years and the dolphins with all our problems are still way ahead of the patriots

 

Vrabel is a solid coach and he will put together a good defense relatively quickly. I don't think Maye will be a top QB but should be a solid pro.

Word is they may be looking to replace the GM so maybe they find a good one. Looking at their last couple of drafts they've taken the right approach at least to build a complete team. They'll be competitive in two years.
