I don't expect him to be fired during the season.
Does anyone think the Mannings would be okay with Arch coming here under the current regime? I don't think they would want him anywhere near this dumpster fire.
I never thought I would say this - I am 10000% against the concept of tanking. The draft is far too hit or miss.
However. It's hard to not imagine/daydream about a scenario where we continue on like this this year, get a high draft pick, clean house, hire someone like Ben Johnson and give him the keys to the castle/eleventy gadrillion a year, and then sell out to draft Arch. I'm with you in that I think it would take a year of campaigning the Manning family.
That would be a painful process for us, and certainly not guaranteed to even happen or pan out in any sense of the word.
But it would feel like a move. Something to knock us out of low-mediocrity.
