More Cowbell Posted May 15, 2019 Share Posted May 15, 2019 This is such a cluster eff on so many levels. First off, this should have been done the same day Bowels was let go if this was planned all along. If this is some knee jerk reaction, welcome to the Washington Redskins North. If this is with the thought of Gase can wear both hats, this is a disaster waiting to happen. Gase has a history of personality issues and this purge may have been the result of one. On top of it all, if Gase was the catalyst of what happened, what GM in his right mind would walk into this situation. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then again we have owners who don’t know wtf their doing so. Jesus. Only a matter of time before Gase fires Williams, probably in season I’m sure. Yep. Williams is definitely not buying green bananas. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no problem with him being fired, now they can bring a GM who is on the same page as the HC. You really can't make as many bad draft picks as he has and be around for the long term. But can we get it right this time, please? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed this piece mystifies me - but maybe Heimer was not as critical to the few good decisions that were made during the Mac regime as we have been led to believe. And folks should calm down - Gase is only the INTERIM GM, not the permanent GM. Hopefully, they'll go out and get the guy from Philly (Douglass?) or someone else a bit more consistent and competent than Mac was. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Macc never inspired any confidence in me. Ever see the movie Office Space? Macc looked like and almost sounded like Milton Waddams. His presence could not fill a phone booth. He may have been knowledgeable but he had no presence. That is probab;y why I always felt that Bowles go this way with CJ when they had their so-called power "arrangement" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jets were the fallback. This doesn't really pass the sniff test. Bullets 1 and 2 are kind of contradictory. Johnson decides to keep Mac and let him spend 100M and run draft, but hires a HC Mac doesn't want because Johnson was enamored with Gase. And then turns around and forces Williams on Gase, the guy he was supposedly so enamored with that he neutered his GM over? Again, after giving said GM 100M and 1.3 to play with? Makes no sense. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I say that's probably not accurate. Given that the Johnson's are responsible for Terry Bradway, Mike Tannenbaum, John Idzik, Mike Maccagnan, Herm Edwards, Eric Mangini, Rex Ryan, and Todd Bowles, I'd say taking as much of the decision-making out of their hands as possible is the best strategy.

Bugg Posted May 15, 2019 Share Posted May 15, 2019 3 minutes ago, dbatesman said: They do a lot with anaytics, too, IIRC, which is long overdue here. Maccagnan is a scout who should never be a GM. A scout falls in love with players. No way an analytics team allows a 2nd round pick to be spent on the likes of Hackenberg. That pick was a scout talking to his buddy, nothing more. A scout picks 2 safeties when his offense is from hunger. A scout keeps taking DL guys when you have those slots covered. I have never heard any other team spend as much time and energy selling their picks as THE BEST AVAILABLE PLAYER. Adams, for example, is a good safety. But taking him over Mahomes or Watson at that time was CRAZY AND STUPID. This move doesn't smell like roses, but it's still the right decision. He has no concept of positional value, and he specifically and the organization generally have overvalued defense and DBs above all. And done to at a time when the rules make DBs overhead, not important. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bleedin Green Posted May 15, 2019 Share Posted May 15, 2019 17 minutes ago, Sperm Edwards said: Know what, take the win instead of complaining about not winning by enough. Yes it clearly should have been done earlier. He and Bowles should have been shown the door on the day they both received their extensions. I'll take a belated win, even if they do look stupid in doing it. Alternative was eking out a couple of preseason-unexpected wins, against teams with major injuries/issues that were unexpected in August, and Macc taking credit for doing a good job a la 2015. 100% this. I don't like the timing at all, but it's too late for anything to be done about past idiocy. I'll take this eye-rolling, but ultimately correct, decision over the endless doubling-down on losing hands as they've been doing for so long before this. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

choon328 Posted May 15, 2019 Share Posted May 15, 2019 The lack of photos and videos of Gase meant something like I said all along. The only reason you fire Macc is bc there is a rift so deep it can't be fixed. He screwed up the #3 pick and paid the price like he should have. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
