His parents control the checkbook. In particular Dr. John York. When he visits the facility the hammer comes down and cuts happen. We have seen for a quarter century now. They had the team 24 and going to be 25 years now. It's always the same pattern and always him. Always about saving money too. It's very predictable now. Plan on getting a lot worse before it gets better. Yeah it can get better. But you are looking at 3, 5, 7 years. It's not going to be next year. We have too much to replace in 1 year. No way you can fix this many holes in 1 offseason. Especially how we draft. With so many misses.
This is actually a good point. York has no near term plans to sell the team. He'll want to increase the value long term, and getting on solid financial footing will help. He needs to win championships, but it doesn't have to be this year. I'd like to think he came down on Kyle's authority to keep his old "favorites" at stupid future commitments, and also to lock himself in a room with no phone the first three rounds so we can wake up that opportunity, but yeah, that's my opinion.
It's been 25 years and we have won ZERO championships and now he's asking us to wait several years more?
We're not happy with ALMOST Super Bowl wins. We want Super Bowl wins. Jed clearly IS content with ALMOST and does not want actual Super Bowl wins like we do at this point.
Actions speak much, much louder than words.
