Random Commanders Thoughts

So far, he is......a GM who survives almost a complete coaching overhaul.....hmmm
Perhaps, like Vinny, he's gotten "super, buddy-close" to the owner, that it makes him virtually fire-proof ?

I will snap someone's chicken neck if this is the case.

It certainly has a Vinny feel. Hope Bruce has enough integrity not to let that happen though.

Maybe the Dan keeps him(Morocco) in well like structure lowering him buckets on a string saying "it puts the lotion on its skin" or something.

That's why nobody ever sees or hears from him but he's a mainstay at the facility.

I see more people hopping on the positive bandwagon.

Always got room for more...
 
The experienced loser theory didn't work out so well for Jim Fassel, Mike Martz, Jeff Fisher, Dan Reeves, Jim Caldwell, and a host of others going back to the 1970s.
 
Read this in an article about yesterday, couldn't help but laugh
...
Another Shanahan draft pick, running back Alfred Morris, also declined to speak Monday morning, saying he needed to leave immediately if he was to make it to Chick-fil-A before it stopped serving breakfast.
...
 
These younger guys have never seen an NFL transition up close before and are just trying to stay out of the way as the debris falls :)
 
one of my best friends helps run the complex morris lives in. he's met morris a few times and talked to him.

he's exactly the kind of guy we all think he is.
 
Re: the new pic avatar above Random Redskins Thoughts....

as long as I am alive and breathing I will never be hopeless as a fan. I believe that at any moment we can turn things around and pull ourselves out of it. You may not believe it but that is not all of our opinions.

We have been down before and won the super bowl. We have been down before and won the division. We can and will rebuild and make big noise!

Maybe it means it looks hopeless for Shanahan, not the Skins or their fans ;)
I mean, consider who it's a picture of.

You mean Morris ran over him, like a bulldozer ? ;)

I'm happy for the most part, but like Boone, there's still so much up in the air.

I want to believe. But is Bruce the new Vinny? We'll have to see.

And Morocco Brown? He's been here 13 years! WTF has he ever done? What other NFL teams have tried to hire him in those 13 years? Or have none?

Spending years working his position during the Dan&Vinny "Let's spend ludicrous amounts of money on overrated FAs and flashy draft picks" show and four under "I know what good football players are no matter what my scouts think" Mike Shanahan might have been a bit of speed bump in terms of establishing Morocco's resume as a talent evaluator also.


Just sayin'.

or Bill Belichick! or Pete Carroll!! or Marty S!! or George Allen!! or Tom Coughlin!!

all losers/fired at one time or another who couldn't find a winning angle as they moved on in football life.

Just wanted to drop in and say Happy New Year to my BGO peeps.... Have a Happy and Healthy 2014 and beyond! Please be safe if you're out and about!

See you when I have the energy to put back into discussing this team... right now, there is zero. I envy those who can continue to keep it positive, but I've got nothing. I'm not the eternal optimist to begin with so this season has just wiped me out completely.

Love, Peace and Chicken Grease

One day in and no new coach.

Keep in mind that this is a serious vigil. There will be daily updates. The continual coaching conclave is being done in secret, but we will keep our daily rituals too.

Let the tailgating coaching conclave commence! Would you please pass the bacon and that bottle of ketchup?

Nice Zorn pic in the graphic, it really captures his essence :p
 
The experienced coaches I was discussing were ones that LOST a Super Bowl and failed to get their teams back or take new teams to the same level.

That's why I am lukewarm on Lovie Smith. Everyone talks about going to the Super Bowl with Grossman but he was in Chicago for eight other seasons as well.
