Wrong. Last year Poles got hammered in his press conferences about the success of CJ Stroud — and “look at how far he is taking the Texans” press questions, etc.

Moreover, his job hinges on picking the right guy. Now with Daniel’s losing, it was just great year by JD. But if JD had taken them to the SB???? That would have set the bar at a crazy high level for NEXT YEAR.

Poles would have been raked over the coals by our media. Taking them to the SB is a thing hard to live down.
I said GM's don't get worried that idiots rant and criticize. You're simply pointing out that idiots ranted and criticized.

How many people did Stevenson help kill?
Carter helped kill someone? Did he put a gun to their head and force the older staff member to be stupid?

Nah. Pointing out that our media is ruthless. If JD had made the SB this year — next year it would have meant that if Poles did not have this team in the SB next year (or very close to it)… our media would been calling for his job.

I know how our media here works. Some of them were already calling for his job this year —- and they are petty, petty people. Next year. they would have made the bar SB or bust for Poles.

Somewhere, right now — Poles is smoking a cigar

Hilarious. Best thing about that call is that it shows NFL rules are totally subjective even if the NFL tried its hardest to portray them as objective.
