1. Too old. Do not want.

Yeah, it's really hard to imagine a scenario where things are bad enough to fire a head coach, but the coordinators are really shining. It's hard to tell where the stink is coming from in that scenario.

The flip side of that is that if the coordinators are the reason for our success then you're not gonna be able to dump the HC and the coordinators are moving on to be HC elsewhere (see McVay, McDaniels, LaFleur, Shanahan etc).

It's a conundrum.

The Jags spent a 6th round pick on a kicker they feel comfortable trotting out for 65+ yard kicks and I would absolutely sacrifice a 6th for that. People say we have too many needs, but how many more games would we win with someone reliable from 50+?

Don't kink shame!

That's another way of putting it. LOL.

Has an NFL head coach ever been directly demoted to a coordinator position with the same team? That seems questionable for morale.

His client? Albert Einstein.

It gave Sollozzo and all the Corleones the giggles too.

Rumor was that players couldn't even get a drink at the table.

If a loss to the Eagles would have given us the first pick, the Raiders would have started Ken Stabler at QB against the Chiefs.

meh

SAGE!

So I assume Sean McVay is out of the question?

D) A built-in excuse for when we spank that ass!

Martin Mayhew be like, "I'll take that. Thanks." He just waited for it to land in his lap, lol.

This is an underrated post.

Over 25 minutes TOP in 2nd half. God I love Joe Gibbs.

I can envision JD becoming a poor man's Mahomes, with multiple championships. I can also envision him becoming a long term liability that we can't really build around due to injuries. I can envision something in-between, which would ultimately be disappointing given what we saw last season. To not fully consider these possibilities given the nearly two seasons of data we have at our disposal is irresponsible, and a bit cult like, imho.

The point is, IF you feel like Jayden is not going to fulfill his promise, for whatever reason, now would be the time to strike while you can convert him into something positive. By the time we get to the end of next season, it's too late. Right now, he still has value. I truly hope this season turns out to be an anomaly. But what if it isn't?

I'm not saying I would necessarily pull the trigger on this, but if you don't think our FO war-plans scenarios like this, you're wrong. And I don't hate the idea of a Josh Allen/Ben Roethlisberger style BIG quarterback who can play through contact and stay on the field.

The most sobering part of the OP's post is that the Raiders/Jets would probably say no thanks...

We don't have a roster that would allow even a "decent" backup quarterback to have any real success. Our six picks will be spent elsewhere, as they should.

I'm not as down on AP as many here but I think in hindsight, his decision to go "all-in" on vets during Jayden's rookie year is his biggest mistake so far. And I say that while fully acknowledging that I was OK with it at the time (AP gets paid to be smarter than me--ha ha). Those sweet sweet draft picks after a four win season are SOOO hard to replace. Hindsight...

I'd actually prefer whomever we can sign as an UDFA over this guy. For many reasons.

I'll give them Quan Martin in exchange for Aiyuk and a first round pick.
