    Who Should Be Next On My Chopping Block?

    On January 1, 2015, I started the very successful Official 2015 Fire Slocum! Thread

    On November 7, 2017 I started the very successful Official Fire Dom Capers Thread

    On October 7, 2018 I started the Official Mike McCarthy Thread. Although nothing is official, the signs are pointing to another successful thread.

    Who should be next? Zook has been getting on my nerves a bit.

    Thoughts? Doesn't necessarily have to be a coach.

    I'm with Red. It has all been slowly descending into the shitter ever since Murphy came on board.

    murph wasn't really involved in the football side as he when he restructured everything this last off-season. he thought TT still had all his faculties. let's see how it goes from here for a while.

    we also have this triangle of deflection bull shit, where no one really reports to anyone and no one is any ones boss

    hell for all we know the lady that stitches the numbers on the jerseys is the only person that can fire or hire the head coach

    Pretty sure Murphy said last year the decision on who the HC will be will be his. MM and Gutey both report to him now.

    Correct. That’s why I believe this cockup needs to be burned to the fucking ground.

    Murphy.
    Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

    I don't disagree. But I think Murphy does know a bit more about football than your typical NFL owner. He played for a couple of Joe Gibbs' Super Bowl teams, so he knows what a winning organization looks like. He was AD at Northwestern, so he's been involved with hiring coaches. So while I don't see it as an ideal situation, I think it could work. This is not the equivalent of Jimmy Haslam telling John Dorsey he had to keep Hue Jackson as HC IMO.

    Talkin’ ‘bout thyself?

    I ain’t too fond of suicide, not cos Providence forbids it or Providence has 14 virgins a-waiting in the afterlife, but b/c out time in this universe is so short, we should try to prolong it for as long as possible. Once our time expires, it expires.

    That being said, I was ready to end it all since I, to quote the poet, flip burgers for the minimum-wage/live a wretched life devoid of marriage. I was, to paraphrase Coldplay, standing on an edge, tied to a noose; Kap came along and he cut me loose.

    Kap and his sacrifice inspired me, to quote the poet, to live and to love and to fight!

    Another vote for Murphy
    LIFE IS ABOUT CHAMPIONSHIPS; I JUST REALIZED THIS. The MILWAUKEE BUCKS have won the same number of championships over the past 50 years as the Green Bay Packers. Ten years from now, who will have more championships, and who will be the fart in the wind ?

    Jerry Jones also knows more about football than your typical NFL owner

    But I don't want Joe to cause Jerry to fire himself.

    You're not going to get anybody fired with that kind of attitude.

    Fire Mm and have Gute select new HC+staff (Zook in particular).

    Revamp away from the 3 headed monster.

    According to M3s presser - he doesn’t talk much to Murphy during the season. Wtf? Can you imagine a job where you don’t talk to your boss, especially while sucking...

    Makes me think Murphy has to go too.

    I don't think Murphy is the problem either. At least he is trying something else with the chain of command. I suspect the search for a new HC - if they too have had their fill of Stubby and most of us pray they have - will be a joint effort with both he and Gute. Sometimes 2 heads are better than one.

    I’m guessing you’ve never flipped burgers for the minimum-wage.

    Communication is overrated. Every fucking job has a fucking description. Just do your fucking job like a fucking zombie.
