What will that mean for our current regime? Will Philpin and Co be gone because the new GM wants his own cronies? or does Ross find a guy that is willing to work with all of the coaching staff?
 
Philbin is a Ross hire and will hopefully find a guy that will work with Philbin. If not, we start over again.
 
one thing for ABSOLUTE SURE, ireland isnt getting fired during the season.

he isnt coaching or playing. what he has done is already done [which isnt much] and firing him during the season wont change any of it.

ireland is slicker than a weasel, dont count him out with ross around. he is to ross what wanny was to wayne huizenga.
 
Why is this question being asked after week 1?

because irelands moves over the last 4 years got us this embarasment on week 1.

its not based just on opening day, 1 game, but 4 years of AWFUL moves and decisions!!

Yes that's dandy but you don't fire a GM week 1 of a season.
 
I know we are not firing Ireland in week 1 BUT the question is meant for after the season. I see them keeping the current staff and bringing in a West Coast style GM possibly someone from within the Packers org that would be more contracts etc rather than 90% personel...
 
It honestly doesn't matter, as long as the GM is gone at the seasons end. Sure it would be nice to keep the HC/OC in place for the young QB . . . but if we bring in a new GM and he wants a new coach, then so be it . . . as long as Ireland is gone thats a step in the right direction.

Yeah because the WCO is so bad. Only the 49ers and their 5 super bowls the Packers and their 2 super bowls since 1996 have had any success with it. Not to mention the Texans who are a favorite for the super bowl, the Eagles who've been a successful franchise for a while...Oh and the Broncos under Shanahan...they had 2 super bowl wins with it as well. Yeah that offense really sucks.
 
I don't see them firing the coach unless we go winless or something... the team doesn't look completely terrible on defense, but expect the offense to struggle all year. so, they are what we thought they were. a middle of the road team with a rookie QB that will sneak in a few wins, but really has no shot at anything this year. So is a 4 or 5 win season bad enough to get the GM canned? God, let's hope so because Ireland needs to go! Especially with all the picks they are stock piling, I don't want him wasting more high picks and another year. You figure by the mid point of the season, if we don't have more than a couple wins, start looking for a move to happen because they'll need to give whoever the new guy is some time to prep.

49ers had Montana and Steve Young. Texans have Schaub. The Eagles had Mcnabb in his prime. All far cries above Tannehill. Tannehill has absolutely zero business starting in the NFL!! He didn't show anything at A&M. He has shown nothing during preseason. His batted down balls plagued our O during the entire preseason and I see it still is. Tannehill singlehandidly cost us that game w/ 3 straight interceptions in 2 minutes. For that reason the West Coast O needs to go because we do not have the talent to execute it with success.
 
How much rope do you give a guy? Ireland should have some dividends paying off by now but here we are..still "another season" or three away from a watchable product.

Ireland

They seem to be on a constant race to the BOTTOM
