    is the team a playoff team because of m3, or is the team good because of its future hall of fame QB?

    its well documented how i feel about m3. i think he's a poor play caller, a poor game planner, doesn't get his guys ready for games, and sticks by his shitty assistant coaches for too long. in short, i think the team wins in spite of its current head coach, and its possible for the team to be better with a different HC
    So you must think TT is lights out as GM then. And before you give me the "ARod is the ONLY reason they can beat a high school team" routine, we went 2-2 with a journeyman QB who nobody else will sign once the shock and awe of losing Arod was over.

    Anyway, I personally think Russ Ball is the guy TT kind of hand picked as his successor early on. Weather or not Mike Murphy is on board with that, I have no clue.

        I suspect that Murphy knows a heck of a lot more about what TT's plans are than the article implies. TT doesn't seem like the sort of guy who well drop a retirement decision on the organization out of the blue. He will give them time to prepare for it.

          I'm sort of bitter about that myself. Bart was just figuring out that side of the game and they cut bait.

            Not to mention its in Ted's job description to hire and fire the HC.
            Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

              Russ Ball certainly is well experienced at what he does or negotiating player contracts and managing the salary cap, and the daily supervision of football-administration departments including - athletic training, equipment, video, corporate travel, player development, family programs and public relations.

              I'd be somewhat surprized if he's the next Packer GM.... sometime in the 2020's.
