1. Zero playoff wins.
2. One winning season in 7 years.
Yet I still see Pace defenders all over Twitter. (Not so much here)
I honestly don’t get it. I still see the “he inherited a bad roster” argument. I see the “he drafts good players” argument. I see the “he’s getting better” argument.
He’s been here 7 years. The defense is trending down. The offense has never once been good. His ass got saved by a HOF LT that was basically retired this year. This roster has holes everywhere.
My question is why would a good coach come here when Pace is the one “buying the groceries” for him? Do we really think a good coach is going to come here knowing Pace has provided a shitty roster for much of a decade now?
If you subscribe to the it’s all Nagy’s fault argument that means you think Pace put together a satisfactory roster these last few years. No good coach is going to look at this roster and think “yeah, I can win with that!”
So is there anyone here that really thinks a good head coach candidate is going to come here, look at the talent Pace has assembled, and say “I can get these guys to the Super Bowl.” Or is it more likely that any good coach is going to pass knowing he doesn’t have the horses to compete?
it sounds like you think pace will survive this season...i dont think thats the case, there are talks about pace being moved to a different role like president of football operations and such but there is no scenario where i see pace surviving this season as a GM.
this offseason they will have a new GM and a new HC, whether they get it right is a different story.
