Re: Kindle experiment is not over...
This is a good point.
The thing I never understood regarding Kindle was that they needed a pure pass rusher.
So, what is the issue with that? How is that a complicated thing?
Dean Pees: Hey Serg - when you're out on the field you have 2 responsibilities: 1) kill the QB and 2) Kill the ball carrier if it comes to your side.

Re: Kindle experiment is not over...
Biscuit said he was going to be a "hands off" owner and has been for the most part. He did some great things adding some bathrooms to the upper deck because he knew that was a problem area being a fan with tickets up there before buying the team.
Then he took Billick to the shed and told him to shape up or leave.
Then he gave him a $20M contract. Then he fired him a year
later even saying I still owed him $15M and paid him.
He formed a committee to replace him and HARBs name was at the
bottom of the list. He was an out of the box hire that Ozzie wouldn't
have made. He liked Marty ball after playing for him but his son
was on the list and so was Caldwell, now the QB coach. Rex was kind of on the list. Many fans wanted him but he never gave him a chance, an interview but never a chance.
Biscuit wanted what most owners did and that was the young
corporate look with a handsome young face to put on bill boards
to advertize the corporation aka the team.
After Garrett turned the job down he gave it to HARBs who beat
Garrett every time including this year w/o Suggs and a pourous D.
He also wanted a yes man who would say by golly, I love it Steve.
I'll go down and tell CAM right away. I mean can you see Rex
or Billick saying that. Bis got the ass kisser he wanted.
So much for a "hands off" owner but he's a hell of a lot better
than Irsay and Petey who built the club up instead of tearing
it down like those clowns.
We're damn lucky to have him.Last edited by AirFlacco; 10-26-2012 at 12:38 PM.

Re: Kindle experiment is not over...
Sad story, no doubt, but time to move on. Maybe no one should be faulted, but we wasted another important pick on him. Given our current state, we can not afford many more such picks.
