Dan’s going to route it through my offshore account in the caymans. We’ll be fine. Don’t tell. Our secret.

Counter Argument: Alex realizes he won’t be able to play. He retires, saving the Skins money on the cap. Part of his FO deal, which doesn’t hit the cap, is he recoups the money he lost by retiring. EDIT: I actually don’t see this happening but if it could happen anywhere it would be here

Update is they heard more rumblings and are trying to source them. Story hasn’t posted yet. I wonder if they are using legilimensy to try and read Dan Snyder’s mind... i doubt he has studied occlumency.

It’s very possible that the winner of the NFC East will be below .500

Counter argument: Dan Snyder. it might happen. Hopefully it doesn’t.

Hall has done very little to convince me he has the football acumen to be a GM. And even the “reporting” he did on Williams was all bunk. Cooley might be the smartest guy in every room he walks into, the question with him would be if he was motivated and if he wanted Alex Smith everybody says is smart as hell and he seems to get along with everybody. I have no idea how good he would be as an executive.

(Twice in one night!) PS: you shouldn’t quote pics because a mod is lurking and it’s against the rules...

Wait. They got caught filming the sidelines again?

The eagles secondary is just awful. If Callahan is smart, and he probably won’t be, he throws the ball all over the field and lets Haskins play. It might not work. Haskins might poop the bed. But it would be better than running the ball 90 times for 100 yards.

But Smith is connected to Somebody who Dan probably covets as a HC. Another option which checks a the same boxes.

I could be wrong but I just don’t see it. Unless it’s just part 1 of a 2 parter and the new coach gets personnel control down the road. I could see Schaffer going to President and Doug going to GM. If it’s internal.

First, I agree with every word of your post. So, let me summarize: You want: 1. Bruce gone. 2. Don't want a guy who's been out of the league who has failed. 3. You do want (you don't spell it out here, but you've said it before) a qualified up-and-coming executive who will be given autonomy, responsibility and authority. 4. You want that person to make changes to the entire organization, scouting, training staff, hot dog vendors, the whole shebang. 5. You want that person to run the coaching search However, I think what you're asking for is something like having an orgy with Sophie Turner, Natalie Dormer, Jennifer Lawrence, Selena Gomez and Ariana Grande. You listed 5 smoking hot desires, I counter with 5 smoking hot desires. While I appreciate the desire, I think you should probably settle for the hot girl at the end of the bar and be happy with it. Which is Bruce fired. Because I doubt all of your wishes are going to come true. Just my $.02. But shoot for the stars, man. Shoot for the stars. Very important rule. Never listen to anything Doc says. Once you accept this rule, your life will be better. You can thank me later.

Alex Smith would be the obvious choice. He announces his retirement, helps out the Skins cap situation, gets a GM job. I don’t love it. But I could see it.

No, but he can’t fire Bruce until he’s at least got a plan forward, interim or permanent, which was my only point. Much better.
