I say they make Drew player/coach and pay him the $18 million per year as a player and an additional $5 million this year as asst. coach, which would not count against the cap.

I like the way you think Guido.

Great. There's one more problem behind us.

I've got faith in Vitt. I mean there is a reason he's been our assistant head coach since 2006. He was also the interim head coach for the Rams in 2005.

It's all going to end up being the collaborated effort of each of our coaches, which I believe will work surprisingly well.

Not sold on Vitt but since that's who Loomis and Payton want, got to back him up

I'm glad we kept it in-house. We shouldn't give the maggots in the media and/or our illustrious potentate in the ivory tower (Komissar) any more juicy, topics such as an outside hire i.e. the big tuna, Vermeil to which they can feast on the media frenzy. Vitt is a safe, solid choice. This is OUR situation and our people are fully capable of righting the ship. We didn't need any outside, carnival type hire that the media and the NFL wanted so they could continue to feed their insatiable appetite of attempting to make a mockery of our hallowed organization. The old adage goes, "next man in line", well....coach Vitt, it's time.

Out of Carmichael, Spagnuolo, and Kromer - Carmichael is the one who I'd least like to see take over for the first 6 games of the season.
