    Not to mention Underwood continually denying the team is for sale.

    Its pretty hard to sell something if no one knows youre selling it...

    How often are they running 2 and 9 just after going 2 and 14 and firing their head coach in year 2 of a 5 year contract?

    But again- the major point of the thread is the team is positioned for a sale, not how debatable the owners activity level is in the press.

    And this is the point of the thread: to discuss if the current management and coaching situation is suggestive of an impending sale.

    I'd argue it is just as enticing for potential buyers that there is NOT a HC that is strung to the franchise and potential buyers.

    Not saying i think this is happening. But sometimes large companies that decide to sell, fire the ceo/pres and hire an interim. There are ceo/pres level execs out there that specialize in short term growth. They are brought in to bring uo the value of the company and then sell (normally a 5 yr or less thing). As for the interim coach, i have no idea how that would help matters. But, you mever know how whizs contract was worded. Maybe its a statistical thing, "teams are easier sold with no hc", idk.

    You have to give credit where it's due. She was in the locker room after the NO game, on the field during warm ups at the Carolina game (I think that's the right game.) She fired the coach. We should be be 3-1 under Mularky, maybe 2-2. Progress at this point, no matter how small is good.
    What I see her doing is hiring Kelly. I don't know if that's the right move or not. However, it will create excitement as he did a good job in his first two years at Philly and was willing to give anything for MM8. The offseason story will be those two linking back up and the thought of an exciting offense (along with our solid d) will create a buzz and sell tickets. It may be short lived but that's what I see happening. Kelly just told USC no, I think he knows something we dont.

    A company worth 1.5 b, will not benefit at all by publicly announcing intent to sell. The only people that need to know this info are people that can afford it. The general public/media would make matters worse for the seller.

    Im also quite sure that nfl teams get offers all the time, that never hit the news.
