Dealing in hypotheticals are we?
Personally, I'm not a fan of shuffling assistants. It's basically a way for the head coach to place the blame on someone else to save his own bacon. The HC usually ends up replacing one shitty assistant with another one who may or may not be less shitty.
You have to flush the whole staff.
Seven or fewer wins _should_ be unacceptable. This is not a team that is coming off an 0wen season. -

but we have one assistant that is so bad that he should have "cleaned his locker out" right after that gamePurpleBaze said:Dealing in hypotheticals are we?

Jimmy doesn't get fired after this year no matter what. JonDone should

It is still mind boggling what Jimmy's hiring process was that ended up with him offering JonDon the job at 900k/year. How the fuck did that happen?! I don't believe for a second his bullshit about how all his NFL contacts telling him about JonDon. The guy was buried in an analyst role for one of the worse franchises in the league. He was probably more surprised than anyone that someone actually wanted to give him a job.PurpleBaze said:

The only reasons I could come up with are
-Jimmy struck out on every other option and in an act of desperation he had to give the next guy an offer he couldn't refuse, even if he was bidding against himself
-Jimmy wanted to prove he's the smartest guy in the room by hiring a loser retread and winning with him
-Jimmy didn't want an offense that would outshine his defense so he intentionally hired a terrible OC and thought his defense would be good enough to win despite it -
He should've kept Hamdan around if this was his plan.insinceredawg said:

I'm going with door #2. He's done too much unorthodox shit for it to not be intentional. Kwat bolting and recruits shying away were the first signs that the unorthodox shit was a big swing and a miss. And now everyone's caught up to speed.insinceredawg said:

I tend to agree. His approach to hiring and recruiting gives off a "I'm so smart I can win with any assistant and any player" energy. The question now is did the Montana loss humble him at all?GreenRiverGatorz said:

Jimmy has a long leash. Needs 3+ so long as most of the losses aren't complete blowouts. Jon Don will get canned next time offense plays like shit so probably this week after Michigan. Junior fills in as interim OC. Rebuilding and incremental improvement becomes the new script.
