Micah approves.

This is where negotiations will start with Micah. I think everyone knew that Micah was going to get stupid money though including the Jones’.

He wasn’t bad… but he’s definitely not what he was and prone to injury. Good luck with all that.

Last season's scapegoat for McCarthy and Prescott, you know Kellen Moore, he's looking pretty good these days.

He’s actually looking about the same. Herbert will definitely benefit from having him as the OC but the team will still suffer from him lack of knowledge on game situations. When his team is up late in the game he will still be calling for deep routes instead of playing ball control offense. He’d rather throw deep passes or stead of running the clock out.

Ditching Moore was a dreadful overreaction to the playoff loss. The game before that was a masterpiece by Moore.

Kind of similar to overreacting and ditching Dak would also be a huge downgrade.

Who said that? Just because I think Kellen Moore was flawed doesn’t mean I like MM. They’re both equally flawed.

It wasn’t an overreaction. It was time for Moore to move on. Most people (not me) consider Herbert to be better than Dak. They have a good young team yet they have a worse record than the Cowboys. Moore still hasn’t shown that he can call a game effectively when his team has a sizable lead.

The common denominator the past 2 decades has been the owner, GM and culture of the front office. But you already know that.

Price is way too high for P. Surtain. Bland is playing a lot better than I had expectations for him. We have other pressing needs if we are to win the division. I really don't think Henry is worth taking a risk on. A lot of mileage on them bones. I'd rather get some O-line help and more depth at LB. And keep an eye out on other QB's and a head coach. After the season we n3ed to replace both of them if we can as soon as possible.
