He is 71 years old. Such a hard pass on him!! Let's hire someone 51 or younger (I picked 51 because I like Tomlin lol).

Re: Potential GM/HC/Coaches Thread

Idk about the GM position and how that will be handled. It's hard to judge Mayhew when Ron is over him. I would not be opposed to keeping him if he impresses ownership, is given power to pick players and his own coach. I'm not down on him as much as I am on Ron, EB and Jack. MM knows how important o-line play is. He saw it up close. But since he's attached to Ron, he'll most likely be shown the door.

I think Johnson has to be the number one guy on their list for HC.

What? Did you somehow miss how hard he sucked as the GM in Detroit?

Poor Ron doesn't notice much of anything these days. At least I give him credit for doing the right thing by not running for President of the U.S.A. Thanks Ron!

Listen, I don't want people to take this the wrong way, I'm sure Martin Mayhew might be a great guy, but to me, he was at the top of a team that went 0-16, and then in his second year went 2-14. I feel like having that level of incompetence should keep him out of being a GM ever again.

Twice in eight years did his team manage double digit wins. Six times out of eight he was worse than .500. He should have been fired from Detroit WAY before he finally was.

I will never know why he was hired again as GM here. Him and Ron both had horrible track records. I get with Dan Snyder, it was only being able to hire the "best of the worst". That stuff is over with now so I feel like we will again be able to get top quality people, not people who have been fired every where else and re-treads / stop-gaps...

What other way is there to take it. He's been bad. Period.

Re: Potential GM/HC/Coaches Thread

The main thing I’m worried about if Harris starts making personnel moves now is the disruptive effect it will have on our still fragile, Snyderized operation. An interim HC will not automatically have player loyalty, and if the team descends into chaos (we’re a crappy team but not a dysfunctional one), players will start calling out other players and coaches, and Harris will have a much harder job putting the parts back together.

Harris must have pieces of an FO or at least a GM in the shadows that he is “virtually”grooming to take over. My guess is that he has an NFL-tested consigliere type by his side now (along with Rales, Magic), helping to evaluate and formulate plans for new leadership. Somewhere there’s a 40-year old offensive coach or assistant making his bones right now, using this season to put himself on the map. (No retreads, please.)

How Harris treats RR, MM, and the rest during the transition will send strong signals to potential replacements about what kind of owner he is. This doesn’t mean bending over to be nice to everyone, but just being deliberative and decisive when the time comes. The last thing Harris wants is to be seen as a continuation of the impetuous, revolving door administration of Dan.

My guess is that the next GM and HC are under contract now with other NFL teams and that the Harris group will do their homework and work their magic to land them when they’re available for interviews.

Next 10-games = more fan pain, but more clarity on who’s got what it takes to be part of a winning franchise.

Re: Potential GM/HC/Coaches Thread

I would hope that our new owner is smart enough to have at least one experienced NFL "consultant" in his team before finalising a sale for $6bn. Someone who has been evaluating the whole operation since before the sale was completed. I would hate for this to have just been started.

Agreed . . . there most likely has already been calls to potential GM candidates too.

Maybe a female GM?

Agree with everything except the team will descend into chaos. Didn’t Jonathan Allen, the leader of our defense and team, just say that we have been trash all through Rons tenure and before that?
They are already a crappy team like you said, and apparently not afraid to tell the world they are sick of this shit that never changes.

Do I think that shit canning Ron will help? Probably not because I dont think they have the personnel or an interim that will help. But shit canning Ron certainly will not hurt either. It will probably help with clock management and maybe, just maybe with motivation. Two things, very important things, that Ron is sorely lacking in.

Either way I am of the belief that this is the final year with Snyders trash around. So ride it out, or don’t. Probably doesn’t really matter at this point.
