DA M.I.A IS WHERE I STAY
Im now intrigued with how the team looks these next few weeks. Two bad loases in a ross in the NFL are tought to shake. Flores has to be sharp this week.
Dude, remember the lack of talent this coach is dealing with. Remember we signed about 13 guys who were cut from other teams and implemented them with about a week to blend in and learn what’s going on. I really don’t think Shula himself could’ve escaped a worse loss. I just don’t think we can evaluate this Flores guy just yet. Grier better pull off a miracle next draft or we’re really ****ed
Oh I agree that there are similarities as far as tons of picks, but that’s where it ends. JJ and bellichick are elite talent evaluators, Grier is not even in the same galaxy. If they fire him and bring in someone experienced and talented then I’ll by extremely excited and hopeful for our future.They do, when they have talent stripped from them, and the general plan is to build a young team mostly through the draft with huge amounts of picks in the next few years...Check how great the Cowboys were in the 1990s early on For JJ...Check to see how great the Patriots were early on for Bill Belichick.

You’ve made the common mistake of assuming there’s only one kind of bad, or one way of losing. It’s a bit more complicated than that.All we heard this off-season was “Tank , Tank, Tank!”
We get our asses kicked today and everyone’s running around screaming like Stewart’s dad from Beavis and Butt-head when their house gets robbed...like they expected us to actually compete for something....
Why be mad? This is what the people wanted...it’s going to be a rough season with hopefully a pot of gold (QB) at the end.
The anger at the team/ownership/front office is completely unwarranted and short-sighted tbh.
Maybe they'll bring in Reggie McKenzie and Marvin Allen to help with the picks. That's why we brought those elite talent evaluators. Why does everyone think Grier is alone? He has a lot of very high quality help.Oh I agree that there are similarities as far as tons of picks, but that’s where it ends.

Jj wasnt an especially good talent evaluator... he benefited from the fact that Dallas traded down... a lot.
They always had lots of picks, so the I evitable busts didnt hurt as much.
There were numerous articles on this during that era.
When he got here, his poor drafting led him to flee the building when it got hard.
Jj had feet of clay... and a bad haircut.

I’m not writing him off yet, but I have one foot out of the door. His piss poor display of defense was just the latest in an every growing list of red flags which include:
How he handled the qb situation
Criticizing body language (for christ’s sake, has he seen his own posture during press conferences) to the media
Starting Bobby McCain at free safety
The mishandling in Minkah
Certain personnel decisions (Taylor, McDonald, Ford)
Bringing in his guys from New England, and not the good ones.
He just keeps on going the wrong way and being a defensive head coach allowing one of the highest scores of all time at home should NEVER happen, crap roster or not. We didn’t even come close to slowing the down.
Finally, I have zero hope that Grier will draft anybody usefully including the first pick. I just think he’ll choose the wrong guy or even if the blind squirrel does find a nut he’ll get him killed with the other wasted picks.
