hire cutcliffe as a consultant for the rest of the season

?

Sounds like you mean QB coach

We need to help Cutcliffe find a job at the amateur level so we know who to draft at QB next.

But, Cutcliffe didn't really yield great results from Jones at Duke with sub-par players around him. He turned into a first round prospect due to his Senior Bowl week and the scary words "potential" and "ceiling". There wasn't a ton on film to say he was certain to be THE guy.

I still see flashes of that talent, but not consistently. I'm not sure Cutcliffe makes a difference there other than maybe providing Jones with a comforting face.

lol...

Wasn’t even good under Cutcliffe, why would it help in the NFL?

..

where his son is HC of the local public HS and he has umpteen grandkids within reach.

Now could he consult remotely? Maybe.

that this exact thought occurred to John Mara the second he heard the news.

No thanks. DJ is what he is, average at best. Giant fans deserve better.

and he molded him into what we have today. Why do we want more of that coaching or involvement at this point?
