Force Feeding DA is About Loomis Trying to Prove that He Can Win a Championship Without Payton and Brees
I mean, did you watch that clown show PC last year, with him chomping gum and saying all kinds of crazy BS? I had a clue then that a disaster was coming.....some hope because I liked the Kubiak hire, but here we are.....
I did and it wasn't good. As far as the gum thing, he had a cold and was chewing the gum to try to help keep his mouth from getting dry. It was a poor decision but for a guy with a big ego he sure seems to make fun of himself for that gum chomping incident quite often.
And I'm not going to throw away 20 years worth of what appears to be a decent guy and start character assassinations because he had a bad press conference and chewed gum in another press conference. This is the same guy who when he was praised for being so smart for finding Kamara in the 3rd round pointed out that if he was really smart, he would have drafted him in the first round.
I've got no time for the personal attacks on people when none of us here actually know them. But, if you want to talk about the things he has done, sure he needs to get the cap better under control and stop going all in, he needs to have better drafts, and he needs to fire DA. I think he has started to do the first two with limited free agent signings and not making big trade ups in the draft, but much more work needs to be done on talent evaluation and drafting.
I'm hopeful he will fire DA at the end of the season. But I'm not going to freak out and turn to personal attacks if it doesn't happen during the season since there is really no point in doing it. We aren't making the playoffs so at best a interim coach might win us enough games to get worse draft picks and that's not worth it if you aren't making the playoffs.
If Loomis fails to fire DA by the end of the year, then I'll agree he needs to go to. But, until then I'm giving him the benefit of the doubt since he has been a solid to good, if not great, GM in the past. He gives his head coaches free reign to create a roster, set a coaching staff, pick the players they want in the draft, and gives them the money they need to sign who they want. The problem is that DA can't handle that much power and needs to go.
