Sneed for a 3rd was nearly praised by everyone here. The only real concerns were his knee... of course he sucked so now we are going to pretend like everyone hated the trade at the time.

Borgonzi has yet to make a huge expensive mistake in free agency or trade that we saw repeatedly with JRob and Ran.

Lol. When the news dropped about carthon being pip'd that changed everything. You and many others here prove everyday you've never had to hire/fire people let alone make decisions on senior leaders and think about decisions at the org level. Fans act like fans after all. Hiring the right people is damn hard. Sometimes you get it right sometimes you dont. Sometimes the process is sound but the results lead to bad hire. Its not a zero sum game.

The next trade should be swaping the formerly Ravens 6th for an early 5th or late 4th.

I forgot to include the Sneed trade, my God what stupidity

They were the #1 rushing team the years before Henry got there, the lead back of the committee, Mitchell, averaged 8.1 yards. This season has been very telling. I already knew all this but now it cannot be denied

Yes. Jrob, Vrabel, and Carthon made terrible decision after terrible decision over the course of 5 years and that's why the team is horrible. Hopefully Brinker and Borgonzi cam right the ship.

You made the same argument about Carthon, condescendingly so When it keeps happening over and over there is some kind of problem somewhere.

Campbell needed blockers. It wasn't just him out there pushing people over. Henry needs Lamar more than Lamar needs him, but when he has Lamar he is still able to do things a very tiny few people have been able to do at his position at his age. You just need to stop hatin. Btw, he passed Walter Payton on the all-time touchdowns list for RBs. Sweetness.

Stop conflating multiple issues. Brinker told you over and over again the knew Callahan would need to grow into a HC and they accepted the risk of going that route. He went into how they decided early on last offseason callahan would return but that they all needed to be better. All normal stuff. Callahan is still the coach today and likely through the end of the season if the offense wasnt historically bad, with Ward not developing, and the team getting killed each week. They fired him because the team was clearly not growing nor was he. In fact it was going the opposite direction. In hindsight Callahan was a bad hire. Thats what happens when you hire people. Some work out, some dont. If AAS had fired Callahan after year 1 all of you would have bitched about her not giving him enough time. Now she did what needed to be done and you bitch about that as well. So tired of this emotionally and intellectually stunted fan base.

Lets look at some of the trades/non trades. I realize this spans over different decision makers. I don't think the McCreary trade is bad assuming they had 0 interest in keeping him. I think the Brownlee trade was worse. The trade ups for two QBs who clearly couldn't play, especially Willis. They lost a 2nd for trading up for Levis.....lol. Then used a #1 pick on a QB! L-O-L They refused a trade of Derrick Henry for a 4th only to let him go a few games later in free agency....lol. They turned down a huge offer from the Rams and took Sweat. Watch them trade him now for some late round swap. Ernest Jones. In hindsight would you rather have him at ILB under an extension? The draft capitol they missed out on and the holes they could have filled vs what actually happened is obscene

And the source is likely an agent or someone close to Brownlee... buck is just too stupid to know hes being used.

Please, They fired Robinson mid season, which never happens to GMs, after AJ Brown went off, when the team was leading the division. It's not about whether he deserved it, it's about why and how. According to your own argument they decided to let Callahan grow into the position this season, then fired him a few games into the season. In no way was this a well thought out process. This is exactly how fans would do it. BTW, you made similar arguments for Carthon last year before having to admit you were wrong.

Hindsight is 20/20, but yes they should. I don't get her love of the shotgun marriage approach. Must be Texas thing.

At 2-5? Their def is still putrid and they weren't exactly winning before Jackson got hurt.

Dude that was a bad look at the time and I said as much but miss me with the dumb shit that singular bad decision meant he should have been fired then or that he didnt have it. Thank goodness teams aren't run by fans...

Narrative alert! Use your brain, aren't you a lawyer?

Yes. He showed growth managing the game as the year went on. The team hired a guy they knew needed to grow into the position and gave him time to do it. He regressed in those areas this year and the team decided the lack of growth was enough to move on. Its really that simple.

Buddy no one would have been mad at Cally being fired after year 1. The moment he was booed for punting and then called a TO to send the offense back out only to not convert told me he wasn’t a serious coach.

Especially in football pads

Option A would have been the right call given how utterly disastrous year 1 was.

Earl Campbell made a lane, bad comparison. We've literally watched Henry this season without Lamar creating running room, he's been a spare. That's why

Nothing here other than one more consequence of holding on to Callahan instead of moving on last offseason.

This is the shit that bothers me. Every single firing she’s made I have agreed with. But it’s the doing things half assed that just makes no sense. And extending the staff of a coach just considered firing just months earlier is doing things half assed.

Even Earl Campbell needed a lane.
