RR was/is highly regarded...

As a person or a Coach? He got shitcanned in Carolina. 3 winning seasons in 13 years. Most people do not get the chance to be that awful for that long so yeah he is apparently a great guy. A highly respected and regarded guy. But anyone who holds him in high regard as a HC is confused.

3 winning seasons in 13 years. My goodness.

LOL, simmer down my friend. I can see the smoke from here.

He's obviously highly regarded as an individual - as a man. I wouldn't hire him to be my HC or GM if I owned a NFL franchise, but I don't doubt that he is highly regarded by some as a Coach, maybe a DC, maybe a HC. He'll likely get another shot in some capacity.

He was the right guy at the right time for this franchise, but he didn't get it done, obviously.

I know Twitter is a cesspool but I find it useful for keeping up with all the various sports reporters I follow.

I think in the NBA, if I went to the store and bought a puzzle, the NBA puzzle is like 20 pieces. The NFL puzzle trying to put that together is a 100-piece puzzle. That’s to me the fascinating part about the NFL. There’s offense. There’s defense. There’s special teams. There’s the salary cap. The way they structure deals!”

Good read on Bob Myers. He was not responsible for drafting Steph Curry or Klay Thompson but it's clear he had a big role in making those championship teams that won 4 titles in 6 appearances. Yes - he's not an X's and O's guy but he knows leadership and what's necessary to win consistently.

Another quote from this Athletic piece on him.

But as long as you don’t break. You have to view it almost as like a family — that no matter what happens, we’re blood, and we’re going to see it through. But that’s a challenge, because you’re really not blood, but you’re as close as you can get, ’cause you’re with each other all the time.”

I get what he is saying but I am rolling at the analogy of a 20 piece puzzle vs a 100 piece puzzle. That had me laughing

the commanders are interviewing mike borgonzi asst gm of the chiefs this morning in miami harris ,myers ,spielman will be conducting the interview

[mredskins]

The play is for Adam Peters; its why Bob Myers was brought in he has a friendship with Adam

[Ruhskins]

I don't know if anyone posted this:

@AlbertBreer
49ers ass’t GM Adam Peters was requested to interview for the Commanders head of football ops job, and will take the interview this week, per source. Significant in that he’s one of the most sought-after GM names and turned down interviews with the Titans and Cardinals last year.

or this:

@john_keim
As @AlbertBreer noted Dallas DC Dan Quinn will take the interview with Washington, source confirms. Not sure when yet. Washington looking at a wide range of coaches; more defensive coaches than offensive ones so far on the list.

[sdskinsfan2001]

No matter who get's hired, we certainly can't say the new ownership group didn't do their due diligence. I'm feeling very confident we get the right people hired (highered).

Giddy up. Not wasting time

49ers ass't GM Adam Peters will interview for the Commanders head of football ops job tonight in Miami, per sources. The Raiders and Chargers also requested permission to interview Peters for their GM jobs, I'm told.

Peters will meet with Josh Harris, Bob Myers & Rick Spielman.

Just a thought, Mayhew worked with Peters in SF so maybe he stays on as GM if Peters takes the job as head of football operations.

I would think not. I think the Head of Football Operations is the GM anyway.

I hope not, but they always play with titles to fit people in when it is convenient.
