So Belt was right about Jerry wanting Witten on Mike's staff and making him an heir apparent.
And Jerry actually wanted Mike to
reduce the size of the coaching staff? Cheap MFer.
This is all incredibly disheartening. I can't remember it being this bleak in a long long time.
It's funny because just about 1 year ago, right before the Packers game, things seemed like they were on a pretty good track.
And 12 months later like a drunk driver behind the wheel Jerry just drove this thing completely off the tracks in the blink of an eye.
Listening to this Slater report it just seems insane, these are the things insane people do. There's no sense to any of this.
At least with Campo, yes the team was in free fall, but at least you could look forward to a time when they moved on and found a real coach. It wasn't completely hopeless.
But this? This is off the reservation type of stuff. I just don't see it getting any better. Because the way they've handled just about everything in the last twelve months, and the way they seem determined to handle the head coaching situation, and on top of that the cheapness - the lack of spending on staff, on coaches, on trainers, on players, on everything - it just seems like there's no hope whatsoever.
Not even when Jerry blessedly dies, because it seems like his inbred family is even worse.
