Dakich is the only dumbass that thinks that Grigson was a good GM, so fuck him. I won't debate on basketball, he knows his shit there, but stay out of foobtall analysis, because the average CF member is superior to you.

Another thing is, I for one, have never called for Ballard or Steichen's heads. I have challenged Steichen for chasing points early in games, as has C&O, I do believe. I have also challenged his propensity for cutsie/trick plays. In Ballard's case, I have challenged his team building at times. His devotion to his drafted rookies has been borderline dumb. His handling of the O-Line in 2022 was a fire-able offense IMO, although I also believe that Chris Strausser and Frank Reich were equally to blame.

Bottom line! I see this franchise in totally different light under Carlie. I think, but have know way of knowing, that she is challenging everyone in the building, ever single day. I think, but have know way of knowing that you can see that in their collective demeanor.

This is all about football baby! Not about dreams, collectibles or rock buddies. This what we were built for god damn it!

He was gifted a franchise QB and, as someone else already stated, I would credit Telesco with the success of that draft moreso than Grigson.

That said, Ballard’s 2018 and 2020 classes are far superior to anything Grigson ever did.
