I think if the Falcons can avoid the big mistake, they can boatrace this Pats squad. I can't make an objective pick, because this Pats team has played such an awful schedule that all we have is history to guide us. Which isn't a very good guide in sports.

Jace, Extat Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 The Colts have ruined my dreams and hired Chris Ballard. Meanwhile, the 49'ers have hired Dark Horse candidate... John Lynch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suppose that's a positive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhom Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 That's the speculation I'm reading now. I like the guy, but who knows if he can run a front office or not. Guessing Kyle is getting most of the power here. This was interesting from Ian Rapaport. Quote The #49ers identified John Lynch weeks ago as a potential GM. He wouldn't go through with it unless it remained secret. Secret no longer. Shut down the leaks apparently Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaime L Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 Previous job experience is overrated. If it's good enough for our country, it's good enough for the 49ers. And hey, at least now SF has clearly the hardest hitting GM in the game today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going to sacrifice a not inconsiderable quantity of it to the ghost of Bill Walsh tonight. I smell a sick call in my immediate future. http://www.normansliquors.com/cw4/images/product_full/13680750.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Arryn Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 I can't decide what is fucking with my mind more, the fact that Lynch got into this by calling up Shanahan a week ago and volunteering, or the fact that this supposed key on compatibility starts off with the GM on record as saying Shanahan comes off arrogant and hard to work with earlier this offseason. We're at the point where we're hurting our necks leaning back to be able to see up to the Cleveland Browns. I've read apologists doing things like mentioning his connection to Bill Walsh, but I mean at that level there are like thousands of loose leaves of the Walsh coaching tree. Another lapdog talked about how Walsh himself was a controversial hire, which is revisionism in the extreme; Walsh was super-qualified and had only been held back by Paul Brown's blackball campaign to keep him on staff or at least not able to reveal who was really behind the Bengles' offensive innovation. This is....nothing like that. Of course it could work out, but more in the dartboard with blinders way; I suspect it'll go much more Singletary/Tomsula than the Genius.

Good in terms of within our control, bad in terms of confirming (if it was needed) how intentional all the previous leak campaigns have been.
