JustinCharge 2,397 Posted January 7, 2020 Jason garrett was WAY over .500 as a head coach in dallas and never had a franchise qb there. Even great head coaches struggle to do that without a qb. Its asinine that he is a coordinator. The browns or falcons should have grabbed him and made him their head coach to pair him with a franchise qb and let it rip.

listen2me 23 1,541 Posted January 7, 2020 Ruhle was the guy they wanted. New Yorker. Was on the staff. A leader. They didnt want to pay him what he was going to get from the Panthers. So they went with the fallback. Call it cheap. Call it not paying up. I dont care. Bottom line is they didnt want to give the guy the money he wanted. Funny how a big fan of the Yankees suddenly cares about the Giants pockets. Weird. Im not saying Judge will suck. Good coaches come from all sorts of places. Im saying they didnt get their guy. Period. Why are you upset? Im not trying to trash you. From the start you come in defensive and aggresive. Its focking weird. Not sure why every thread has to be some big dramatic argument with you.

After what they have done to the Packers it’s understandable. Plenty of criticism is valid towards the NYG. You just don’t know what you’re taking about.

The culture being two owners. If they wanted Rhule, they should have fired Schumer weeks ago and not let the Panthers jump in front. That’s why they lost him. Indecision. Not money.

When he and Bob Tisch died in 2005 they left their sons a stable franchise on the rise. It’s been a disaster save 2016 when they spent up in FA since the Wellington Mara hires left the building. Their kids aren’t up to the task. Expect the NYG to go on a spending spree. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I grew tired of watching dump offs land at the feet of an open receiver. He was a notch below on accuracy. McNabb is a QB I'd describe as a guy who did some things very well but also had big flaws. A franchise QB is absolutely phenomenal at certain tasks. Mahomes was just incredible a year ago. Or Baker Mayfield set the all-time TD pass mark for a rookie in 2018 and didn't even play a full season and was on a sketchy Browns team when he did it.

I think you need to define “franchise QB.” To me a franchise QB is a guy who plays at a high (like Top 3rd of the field) level for a 3-5 year period. By that yardstick guys like Matt Ryan are / were franchise QBs and NcNabb definitely clears that bar. I watched every game DMac played. He’s absolutely not a HOFer and played some of his worst ball in the biggest spots. I don’t even like him personally. But to say he wasn’t a franchise QB is nonsense.

He was a good QB. But not special. Not a franchise guy. Even good QBs are hard to find, so you don't get rid of him. But meh. He was 11-7 or something vs the Dallas Cowboys. The Cowboys had 2 playoff victories between 1997 and 2013. One was over McNabb and the Eagles. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
