theres 32 jobs in the nfl for HC and even less for GM. Lots of people will want this job

Sure "LOTS" of people will want the job.  ****, I'd want the job.  That doesn't mean I'd be a good fit.  If the GM spot was easy every team would be 16-0

Yeah, I think as soon as the door slams behind the last one.....you place two abnormally large ice cubes in a glass, pour up about 4 fingers of fine scotch and refresh for a moment.  Afterwards you personally contact Bill Parcells, Bill Polian and any other GM/exec that you can think of that has been a part of consistent NFL success during the last 25 years and offer to fly them to a location of mutual agreement for whatever price they specify in order to spend 3-5 days developing an org leadership model and  3 potentially successful models for sustained on-field success within today’s NFL environment.  These models should address on-field schemes, scouting, drafting, player development, coaching/evaluation/accountability, FA management/acquisition and should be directed at thorough review of current roster (how to maximize immediate ROI) while transitioning as necessary to new/revised org on field philosophy.  You should also leave these meeting w a priority order listing of potential GM, HC/Coord hires based upon the agreed upon models and associated strengths, weaknesses etc.    AB will likely have to pay thru the proverbial nose to pull this off during December but that’s what you do.  You be willing to hear things that make you uncomfortable and somewhat vulnerable personally and you take a film library/tech and your confidential sec. none of the Corp worms from the branch!!   You bring these guys to Fontainebleau Miami or wherever the consensus works.  Put them in suites w activities for their wives/significant others during day and you comp everything!!!!!! Wine and dine them lavishly at night or simply burgers and beers whateverThey will enjoy.  During day it’s all business all football and I guarantee you get knowledge you currently do not possess abt some/all of your failures at very least.  At best you build a very expensive team of high level experts who are willing to give a small share of their time and knowledge to a humble owner w $$ and desire to do things right.  Maybe even cultivate yourself some very valuable minority owners to help you right the ship and even give occasional guidance if you hit a rough spot.  It starts w being humble, recognizing the people who have knowledge and doing whatever necessary to engage them and access said knowledge and success.  I’d prbly add Jimmy Johnson and a few others to that list.   Proven winners who’ve built winners!!!  Start yesterday!!! There is nothing to lose.  AB basically needs to go thru his very own NFL exec “boot camp” w clearly defined deliverables to bring home.  This is what I do if I’m mr B.

Firstly I'll state that regardless of which side you stand, it's highly unlikely we clear house (If Q loses out, all bets are off for him, I think TD stays).

However, I'l play, and I'd be annoyed if we called up Bill Polian or whichever old fossil you care to dig up for GM, or McCarthy as HC. Known quantities, and behind the times with it. 

If we really cleared house, start a new brains trust. We need new ideas, don't hire 'old school football guys that know football' and expect anything different, better or worse. No, I don't advocate a Chip Kelly or Kliff Kingsbury, but there are guys out there who *could* be the next big thing without gimmick.

Les Snead has worked out pretty well for the Rams, and Shanny is doing quite well way out west. Sadly, our in-house situation is bleak. We seemed to have jettisoned any notion of youthful coaching talent outside of an ex HC in Raheem... They have all moved on to bigger things, and would you honestly entrust Morris with the team? Definitely not without very exciting coordinators. I wouldn't hate it though.

Clearing house, for me, would make the most sense at the coordinator and below level. Give Raheem a proper job or let him go. If TD stayed, give me a new head of scouting. Or at least 50% turnover in the scouting department. Replace Q if we really see someone we love become available. Because something doesn't feel right about both TD and Q staying with new coordinators, again.

There is only 32 Jobs in the NFL for a HC and GM. Next, Jobs are more attractive in the NFL when a team has a QB. Falcons have a very good QB and that is attractive. I know half this fan base hates MR but sorry guys he is a very good. Dirk Koetter might get him killed but if he as for makes it we are good. As for the Cap situation, things can be done to creat cap space. Teams and depth are build through the draft anyway. 

 Matt Ryan hasn't look that great this year lol

go to the top of the posting read my contacts lol simply my opinion

So you listed this...

1- we are in a bad salary cap situation
2- we have a QB that's possibly past his prime but you can't get rid of him 'cause of the salary cap implications.
3-there's a high likelihood that we go on a 4 game winning streak end have a mid-round draft pick.

In response...

1- The cap can be manipulated so there really is no "bad" salary cap situation.  Over the years the teams with the most cap are usually the worst teams in the league.

2- If you look at the landscape of the league, especially with the rules, this really isn't true

3- You have no idea

You get someone that's not an iPhone. Meaning, get someone with longevity. It's time to leave these popular people alone. Build a franchise that will become a dynasty. Pittsburgh has only had 3 different Head Coaches in the last 50 years. Belichick has been the HC for New England for the last 20.
