Re: NFLPA Team Report Cards
At 20th of 32 teams we are pretty close to average in 'treatment of families' even though it is a D+. I can see how treatment of families is complicated. Teams don't want wives and girlfriends showing up at the facility and creating distractions or becoming divas at the games demanding special attention. Many players have lots of children, and most jobs don't want a lot of chidren at work or employees missing lots of work due to sick kids etc. Often the players have children with exes too, which gets more complicated and difficult to handle. Also, I am sure every players boomer dads who raised an NFL son think they should be giving the coaches lots of advice the coaches don't want. So treatment of families is what it is. And with the oldest roster in the league, our players likely have more kids, more wives, and more exes than average, though probably less parents.
I would worry more about the cafeteria (30th) and head coach (29th). There are a million chefs in New Orleans running 4.5 star yelp restaurants selling $15 plates because they are not currently one of the hottest 20 restaurants in town, and meanwhile we probably have the dome concessions people running the cafeteria. Time to upgrade. Meanwhile the head coach is who he is. A very good scheme guy who can't lead. He excelled as an assistant and sold Loomis on his smarts, but it takes more than smarts to succeed as a head coach. Our assistants were ranked higher than our head coach by the players, yet we cycle through them like nobodies business. Again because the head coach can't lead and they take the fall. |
