Mara and Gettleman need to speak.

ajr2456 : 10/20/2021 9:27 am
Stop hiding behind the tradition of not talking during the season. Embarrassing that management is in hiding. Have some accountability.

Don't they at the bye?
Why are people so obsessed with management talking?  
nygiants16 : 10/20/2021 9:30 am : link
Then when they do talk you conplain they didnt tell you anything..

Them talking does nothing, just fricken fix it, i dont care if i hear you utter 1 single word
The only conversation  
Dnew15 : 10/20/2021 9:33 am : link
they should be having is:

Tisch/Mara: I've called you all (entire FO) to let you know that we are going in a different direction. THank you for your time and dedication to the organization, good luck in the future, but we are replacing you all.

Mara: That includes you son.

Reese spoke at the bye, Gettleman doesn’t.
Not much to be done right now

other than you're fired or your authority to make trades is rescinded.
What exactly do you want them to say?

Arent we past that point? I don't need to hear Gettleman at all, and I only want to hear Mara if he's saying Gettleman has been relieved of his duties. That's it.

starting to be a problem in the locker room too.

What are guys like Judge/Garrett/Graham supposed to say to their guys at this point?

that is their tradition. What are they going to say "I am mad and fed up." I mean we have heard the same thing from Mara on loop for a decade. Nothing that he says will fix that we are putting out the worst lineup in the NFL this weekend (I do think by mid november we will not have a good team but it will be signficantly better than what we will have, which will be the worst, over the next week or two with all these injuries).

I want him to say his brother and nephew are taking a back seat.

tell them to stop quitting
I really have no desire to ever hear Gettleman speak again  
Greg from LI : 10/20/2021 9:59 am : link
Every time he opens his mouth, he embarrasses himself and the franchise
Great  
Spider43 : 10/20/2021 10:00 am : link
Tweedledum and Tweedledee. What are they going to say? They'll just make it worse. Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak and to remove all doubt.

highlight of this team for the past 4 years and is always worth the comedic fun.

If you want to hear Mara, just pull up last year's pressers. He is pretty consistent in saying the same things each year.

What value is there in having Gettleman and Mara speak?  
Mike from Ohio : 10/20/2021 10:36 am : link
You think the players will play better because of a press conference where they admit they have done a shitty job? You think more criticism is the answer?

Lot's of needy, emotional posts here today.

They should be out front answering questions. You don’t see Cashman hiding, he’s out there front and center every week.

Mara didn’t even have the balls to show up to to the halftime ceremony.

I wanted to be so happy with this post until I realized someone else even worse might make the trades.

No problem with the fired part though.

Of this football team ON the field tells me all I need to know. I don’t need to listen to Gettleman talk about injuries when we all know all he wants to do is draft, sign and trade for more CorNabacks.
Ownership

Has had no answers for the pathetic performance of the past decade. There is nothing John Mara could say “ in season” that would satisfy the fan base that ownership understand what is wrong, and will be taking immediate steps to correct it

Baring an incredible turnaround, meaning a team that suddenly becomes a competitive force with several improbable victories in the next 11 games, Mara will be forced to make major changes.

What is yet to be determined is if those changes will include a new voice that can correctly identify what has kept this franchise in the doldrums for 10 years, and will he have the wherewithal to make the corrective, unrestricted, decisions
Speaking during the season is the opposite...  
D HOS : 10/20/2021 1:23 pm : link
of being less involved.

The things I want to hear John say, shouldn't be said until after the season.

Right now the only voice I want to hear right now is from Judge, and that only to keep there from being multiple possibly conflicting voices in the media.

Didn't see the halftime ceremony. Mara didn't show up?..
To say what?  
TyreeHelmet : 10/20/2021 1:33 pm : link
The same old song and dance from Mara he's been saying the past 7 years? And what do you want from Gettleman? Admit that hes a massive failure?

Unless Mara is firing Gettleman I don't care what he says at this point.

I agree with this one 100%, tell me you're making a change at GM and I care. If not who gives a crap what he has to say.
