Good for him. Maybe he can make the most out of this chance. With Dad gone for good, hired by ESPN, Chris will not be judged as Bill Polian's son, and just as himself in this situation, IMO. That is all he can ask for, wanting to make his own mark.

Not being in the shadow of BP might be a blessing

Looks like Bill Polian's son is getting another chance in the NFL, Chris got a job with the WFT as director of pro personnel

He never left... he’s been with the Jags since 2011, when he was fired here. I believe he was head of their scouting department

For whatever it’s worth...   I’m not sure Bill is still with ESPN?     If he is, maybe it’s more part time?   Dunno?    But I haven’t seen him on the network in a very long time.    Of course,  ESPN has had so many rounds of layoffs over the last few years, he could’ve been let go and the news might’ve been unnoticed.

He retired from ESPN in 2019

      Taking Taylor off the field

      Not trying to over simplify but it is pretty simple. SS calls plays that he believes will work against a certain defense and he has confidence his players will execute that play. The results right now are that his players are NOT capable of executing those plays on a consistent basis enough to win games. The only question moving forward is, do we have good enough players to start to execute more consistently or not and is SS making it as easy as possible for players to be consistent. It's not just a talent thing. It's a attitude and smart thing and then the level of talent. Most of the time, the best players are the smartest players with the right attitude. How talented they are is a bonus. My point, i question our teams attitude and football intelligence as much as I question their talent. Ex.....Stopping the run is as much attitude as it is talent. A big part of why JT is JT, is because of his intellegence.

      Thanks for the updates.  I made my "first pass" projected picks based on where the players are ranked on tankathon right now.  Obviously, subject to change!

      Too Soon to Panic

      The biggest problem is that the rest of the team is playing like trash around the rookie QB.    Of course the essentially rookie QB that has played 6 NFL games is going to be a rollercoaster.  He's known to have accuracy issues, and is for some reason being forced to be a pocket passer.    When the highest paid O-line in the league can't block, that's problem.  When the WR's can't catch passes that bounce off their hands, that's a problem.  When the highly invested in $$ D-Line (like 5 1st or 2nd rd players) can't block and LB's get consistenly washed, that's a problem.  When the highest paid kicker in the league can't kick and gets hurt constantly, that's a problem.  When the defensive scheme is to "bend not break" but the bends are to the tune of 100 yards a series, that's a problem.   Now's the time to strike in other areas while you have a QB on a rookie contract. Actually, this all should've been figured out already by the GM and all positions should've been rock solid by now.
