Politi: Reese is the Main Culprit

burtmanjack : 12/3/2017 10:07 pm
and must go.
Politi on Reese - ( New Window )
it's not just reese  
japanhead : 12/3/2017 10:20 pm : link
it's very likely everyone under him including marc ross, chris mara, and at least half the scouts. of course it's reese's operation, but who knows how much john mara meddles.
Reese has been the GM for a decade.  
Dave in Hoboken : 12/3/2017 10:21 pm : link
The moves this team makes are absolutely on him, negative and positive.
Has he still not talked to the media?

Piece of shit coward
I agree.

Reese has to be held accountable. Resign now Jerry.

This. Ross has to -- and will -- go also.

His second flameout.

according to Colin@gbn, Reese doesn't make the picks  
SHO'NUFF : 12/3/2017 10:30 pm : link
in a vacuum, so he shouldn't be held accountable.

LOL. Amazing. The GM should never be held responsible ever, I suppose. Great stuff.
It’s gonna be the long wait on Reese  
WillVAB : 12/3/2017 10:37 pm : link
I suspect ownership will let Reese and his crew conduct business as usual until the SB champion is crowned. Or until someone they want from a playoff team is bounced.

He will be let go by Jan 2 -- at the latest.
Do GMs get fired in season  
RetroJint : 12/3/2017 10:48 pm : link
without there being scandal or something ? Reese stays to wind things down .

Because it's called Black Monday for a reason -- teams almost always make these kinds of changes immediately following the season, Otherwise they risk losing the top candidates. The playoff teams make their assistants and FO personnel available during their bye weeks. That's how Shanahan was announced as HC of SF, and Quinn was announced as HC of ATL, the day after the teams for which they were coordinators lost the SB. Deals were done.
FIRE REESE NOW!  
Fishmanjim57 : 12/3/2017 11:41 pm : link
I've been saying that for four years. He has ruined this franchise, I want him gone before the draft........I don't want another pick like Eli Apple!
I'm not sure what good it would do  
George : 12/4/2017 2:38 am : link
to fire Resse and Ross now. Waiting until Jan. 2 would not be the end of the world.

But McAdoo should be gone today before he does any more long lasting damage.
He’s right about that

Fire Reese now  
Chip : 12/4/2017 6:57 am : link
This shit show is on him.
Anyone who thinks Chris Mara is going anywhere  
arniefez : 12/4/2017 6:59 am : link
Is going to be disappointed.

Thats on thing I really do blame Mara for - you can't allow your GM to hide behind the curtain.
Article loses credibility when talking  
RollBlue : 12/4/2017 8:55 am : link
about Wheeler trying to block Mack. That's a coaching issue by failing to give the kid some help with a TE or RB chipping. Mack gives good RTs problems.

Who was the guy that hired McAdoo as his OC?

Coaching is the biggest issue on this team, and had been for 4-5 years. Same OC, DC, ST coordinators for the last 3 years.

I'm ok with replacing Reese, but don't expect the new GM to hit on every draft pick, including first rounders - no GM ever has.

Last year's draft looks pretty good - Engram, Tomlinson, Gallman, Moss.
I agree with this. Reese, Ross and staff MUT GO. Abrams can stay  
Victor in CT : 12/4/2017 8:58 am : link
as capologist.
Regarding Colin  
idiotsavant : 12/4/2017 9:15 am : link
Remember. It's phys Ed majors teaching phys Ed majors.

This goes way beyond draft picks. Although Jwrry has made some terrible ones. - It's the basic nature and overall balance of the team as a whole.

The Mara's need to be humble and find someone who has a broader understanding. And whom they will listen to and learn from.
And soon  
idiotsavant : 12/4/2017 9:17 am : link
As the GM will determine the coach. Or they will discuss and choose simultaneously.
If Colin is implying that Chris Mara. Calls the shots  
idiotsavant : 12/4/2017 9:48 am : link
Than that has to end. Good GM candidates won't go for that. Muddied up hierarchy.
The Fish Stinks From The Head  
Rong5611 : 12/4/2017 9:59 am : link
Can't fire the Mara's.

Reese needs to go, John & Chris need to step back and let the new GM run the show.
And they need to make their flexibility clear ASAP  
idiotsavant : 12/4/2017 10:02 am : link
Otherwise they may not find a decent one.
That article  
lugnut : 12/4/2017 10:04 am : link
was kind of all over the place, but calling McAdoo a "multilayered disaster" was worth it.
