    Idk why I just realized Daron Payne is paid the same as dexter Lawrence… who would you want for 4 yrs 90 mil? Right now Payne hasn’t shown it… dude showed up in a contact year and RR didn’t realize it and gave him the bag. Dude has not lived up… dude is not as bad as Albert Haynesworth because he shows up but he’s not worth 4yrs 90mil. It’s pathetic.

    The culture stuff is the consolation prize/cope for not having a better on field product. It’s good that a lot of the gross harassment/exploitation was exposed to the public with some people held accountable(to some degree), and we are less of a PR disaster(still a laughing stock), but idk how much credit Ron should get for that as law enforcement/the league/media were coming for us (rightfully so) anyways.

    As self serving as it is most fans care about on field success as much as or even more than the culture of the organization.

    Like in any other entertainment fandom you’re only as defensible as your last movie/album/work.

    When it comes to the on field product, just strictly coaching-wise, we get off to slow starts, have bad clock management/challenges, and make adjustments too little too late.

    Dumb take. We are perennial underdogs, but Ron has certainly prepared us well for many games. He’s also not prepared us well for a bunch of other games.

    I’ll always appreciate the win against the Bucs in '21 and against the Eagles in '22. The small winning streaks that we went on with TH as our QB were magical, even if they didn’t end up with playoff runs.

    Heck, even this year, we played the Eagles evenly. One play was the difference in each of those games.

    Not saying he’s been amazing or anything to keep him, but you would have to have the memory of a goldfish to not remember the games we punched way above our weight.
