sounds like this is a John Dorsey deal....apparently Tony Soprano was in KC when John was there. The ONE good thing about this is- Lurie is listening to someone outside of Howie the weasel :yeshrug:
Sirianni's last year in KC was 2012, Dorsey's first was 2013, so they never directly worked with each other - but Dorsey did try to interview him for the Browns job in 2019, Sirianni turned down the interview because he was focusing on a Colts playoff run. I'm sure Dorsey put in a good word for him when Lurie asked.

It sounds like Howie was pushing for McDaniels, but Lurie couldn't get over his sleazy resume :mjlol:

I dont like the hire

I dont know anything about Sirianni so ill be happy to be wrong

Optics of it look bad though. Feels to me like theyre going in the exact opposite direction of what makes sense right now. Also feels very much like this is 100% all about Carson.

The team is in financial hell and clearly a transition spot and in need of adding youth and shedding salary .

Working out a way to get Wentz traded with reworking the deal to eliminate the cap hits in the next few years, while getting back some picks its such an obvious fix. Especially after the disaster of last season

Hiring duce and playing Jalen while rebuilding was a lay up. You had players, respected eagles vets especially, openely pining for duce to to be hired.

I think they fumbled this whole situation and it looks really bad optically. Its gonna make Wentz more unlikeable too. If theres ever full stadiums again, hes gonna get killed by the fans for every mistake.

I think they got scared about carson and caved to an easy decision. I hope im wrong and either carson still gets moved, or that it all just works out well but i have alot of doubts right now

If im duce im quitting right now btw
