    A Solution at GM possible?

    Eric DeCosta - Wikipedia
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eric_DeCosta

    I was listening to Jim Rome and he was talking about him as well as on the buffalorumblings website
    This is a guy you hire if you want to TRY and turn things around
    Baltimore has had quality players for close to a decade going thru there at the very least on D
    and now that they got Flacco they could be good for awhile provided they keep adding talent to there ageing D

    Anything is better than someone with no football knowlede and used to market the Bison's

    These are the type moves we need to look at for us to turn it around at OBD
    and let him pick his HC
    take your pick
    Bill Cowher (if he doesnt want GM title as well)
    Mike Shanahan (read above)
    Tony Dungy
    Mike Sherman
    Mike martz
    Steve Marucci
    Jim Fassel
    Jim Hasselett
    Marty Shotty (read above)
    Mike Holmgren (read above)
    and i am sure i am missing a few coaches
    anything is better than passionless Skeletor

    DeCosta would be a fantastic signing but I can tell you for sure he is on a lot of teams lists of potential hires. Also he may not want to move, he would be the Ravens new GM if Newsome left for any reason.

      I stopped reading at Mike Martz. Sorry, Bub, that's a joke.

        I'm on board! Hire a guy like this... let him pick a good coach, PAY THE COACH, and let the coach bring in real assistants. Trade the guys we have that have value for draft picks, and start over. Yes, it hurts to do this again, but at least it would be building the right way.

            Martz, Fassell, Marriucci, HASLETT?

            YUCK.

            And throw Billick on the lists of DO NOT WANTS.

            The others would all be too expensive for us of course.

            Sad when the only guys you can realistically think of are the ones who have no other options.

                wishful thinking i guess
                but if RW was serious about doing something to live up to his HOF status he would pull this off
                other franchises are doing similiar things
                gotta do something cause right now this team is a joke

                  On your list there is at least one guy that I don't see as a significant improvement as a HC.

                  Martz is horrible.

                  But the others can't hurt.

                    i wouldnt want him either
                    just trying to think of HC who are not HC right now
                    **** you can throw Billick Dennis Green on there too
                    i dont want anyone but Gruden Shannahan or Cowher, i want someone with a plan and good enough talent evaluation and pro personnel decisions that they get the players that fit there scheme and coaches that can coach the scheme they want to implement
                    thats not to much to ask is it?

                      I want Kirk Ferentz at HC.

                      The guy will do an excellent job whenever he decides he's done in Iowa.

                      It might as well be here!

                        I agree, but I would imagine there are other DeCosta's out there as well. The Steelers, Giants, Patriots, Chargers, Packers, Eagles, Titans, and Colts have all traditionally done a good job of drafting and making personnel moves, in addition to Baltimore. There has to be an up and comer out of that group that could be brought in.

                          The new trend in the NFL is to hire talented OC's, recycled head coaches RARELY pan out.

                            Is it really a new trend though?

                            We tried that...Williams, Mularkey.

                            Some of these guys pan out, others are just as bad as retread HCs.

                              If i could do one move that i thought would make a huge impact it would be Bill Cowher and let him run the whole show
                              he showed us that he knows more than ToM Donhoue who lost his power struggle with him and came here to fail
                              he would bring everything we want
                              Please let something like this happen
                              its our only hope
