😀😀 Ron fired days ago. Mission Accomplished.😀😄

You don't fire anybody if your Harris. You let them finish out the year and then you completely clean house. Hire a GM, then a coach. Change the name. Pretend the last 25 years never happen. -

It's on his latest pod. Said a lot of players think Ron has given too much control to EB already. Also, just a general vibe from Keim that the team wasn't banging down the door for EB. -

Keim was dropping some not so subtle hints that the locker room doesn't think much of Bienemy and doesn't want him in the mix for HC. -
I grew up in Alexandria, but live in Los Angeles and follow both the Rams and Chargers closely. The upside to coaching the Chargers is Herbert, living in Socal (which ain't for everybody for sure), and a media that couldn't be more chill. I think people underestimate how much of a headache the DC media is for coaches. Lots of drama created, lots of click-bait articles. None of that is LA. But that brings me to a big negative to the Chargers job... NO ONE CARES ABOUT THE CHARGERS. They simply should not be in LA. There are zero charger fans. The only reason there are two teams in LA is because Spanos is so cheap and loves that he gets to play in a stadium he didn't pay for. If you coach the Chargers, you will NEVER know what it's like to have a stadium even halfway filled with your own fans. Seriously, the crowds at Sofi make Fed-Ex look like Lambeau. There is no passion, no hunger. In Washington, there still is -- if you win in DC, the fans will come back in droves. I also think the Chargers roster is aging and overrated. I think if you like Howell, and you don't mind the microscope that comes with being the Washington coach, Washington is the better job. Plus there's the cap space issue. And I think Harris will be willing to pay a lot more than Spanos. Add in the cost of living and I don't think it's close. What I paid for my ranch style house would get you a mansion pretty much anywhere in VA.

Haskins looked good under O'Connell. HASKINS.

Game Day Thread 2023: SUPER BOWL LVIII (58) ~ Chiefs vs. 49ers
Hooper replied to zCommander's topic in Around the NFL
Difference between getting picked in the top five compared to the fifth round. You get chances and time. Guys like Howell have very little margin for error -- they almost have to wildly impress to overcome their draft position. It's a big reason there haven't been many late round success stories. -
Howell is the real deal. He's going to lead the league in passing yards this season. And he suddenly has stopped taking sacks. Harris must be ecstatic. A stud young QB on a rookie deal is EVERYTHING.

Just an insane penalty. You should be able to challenge stuff like that.

Hate that delivery of Levis. -
Don't be shocked if the D plays better without Sweat and Young. It happened before. And how could they play worse? Really curious to get an extended look at Toohill, who has four sacks already with not nearly as many reps as Young or Sweat.
