Having read all the latest articles and watching the presser for Schoen it becomes very clear that despite all the negative press and failure he’s had John Mara continues to meddle in this process along with his idiot brother. How do you say one minute it’s the GMs call on coaches and then the first thing we hear yesterday from schoen is “collaborative” when it comes to the head coaching job? Mara running out to call Brian Flores, when we didn’t even have a GM and now there are reports Daboll is going to Miami and that Flores is imminent. Flores is a horrible choice, and sounds exactly like a Mara hire. His offenses were pedestrian, teams ok and he’s a monster to deal with. On top of that our offensive is a shit show and hiring this guy is not going to fix Daniel Jones or make us a better team. He’s just a carbon copy of Judge, ultra conservative, with no imagination or idea how to put a staff together. I’m amazed at the love affair for this guy. Simply amazed.
You just said above that no one here actually thought Mara would have 0 input but I actually completely disagree, plenty post and argue like its what was promised to them.

As with most things, whoever is hired will confirm for many what they already believe. Flores being hired will be proof of Mara running the team for some. Daboll being hired will be proof to some that Schoen has full autonomy and answers to nobody. People hate living with the unknown so they create a theory that makes everything understandable. It's silly not to realize people have different views and therefore different theories.
Neither one will ever be "proven" in anyway. That doesn't mean it can't be discussed.

The process is flawed. It can still yield improvement and I figure it will now as the IQ just went up.
Still a flawed process, and that will probably be borne out against better processes elsewhere over a period of years.
Bad news... Schoen is not running the operation. Peppers was right.
Lmao PEPPERS WAS RIGHT. The GM has not made a single decision yet.
Do you also believe in Qanon?

Good news is that Schoen MAY be better than Gettleman (probably is) and Schoen MAY be able to convince Mara to do the right thing (debatable).

It's like EliisGod and this nub just showed up as illustrations of the fringe lunatics on this site.
Thanks to you both!
I suspect that ownership's final say is more about retaining the right not to commit to the GM's choice if he wants a 9 year $100MM contract. At the end of the day, (thanks Antrel) it's not the GM's money.

I’d say the Eagles are well run, and Lurie is HEAVILY involved.
Schoen said he is giving his front office a chance to see if they can buy in to his process. He will need his own outside asst GM after the draft. Need stronger people below him.
The counter to that is that Washington has had Snyder involved. That has worked out terribly.
I am not equating Mara with Jones/Lurie or Snyder. What I am saying is that it is Mara particularly and his poor track record that is the concern.

It's worth remembering that if John had had his way, Chris would have been made GM when Accorsi retired. Presumably he'd keep that job until he was ready to retire - would John ever actually fire his brother? Tisch vetoed, but John essentially found a workaround.
The football side is basically being run by a homeless man's John and Robert Kennedy.
They're not good at it, so we're left hoping they luck into some good decisions. Hopefully they both retire soon and McDonnell is better than they are.

Some will take offense at this, but that was funny!
That’s what I hope he asked Mara knowing who he is. I hope he got the right answer
Mara: “Well you’d really have to ask Joe that question. I didn’t even know we hired Brian until about 10 minutes before I walked on. I will say, though, I’ve been disappointed in that Boba Fett show on Disney +. I mean, the best episode didn’t even have Boba in it amiright?!”
AP: “Do you see a future for the NY Giants that includes Saquon Barkley and Daniel Jones?”
Mara: “No clue! With Joe I have a ‘don’t ask don’t tell’ policy and I don’t ask Joe a God damned thing! You think we’ll get to see Baby Yoda and Luke again? That could really save this otherwise mediocre series! Seems a lot easier than fixing this offense, though, amiright?! But you’ll need to check with Joe about that. Deuces✌🏻!”
