Looking at the typical career path of NFL coaches, it seems like a system designed to maximize the effect of the Peter Principle

Xavier Rhodes and Harrison Smith named first team All Pros. Everton Griffen and Adam Thielen are second team All Pros. Glad Smith got All Pro despite the Pro Bowl snub. He’s the only player on the Vikings I think is unquestionably the best at his position.

Kyle Long has at least made a couple of pro bowls. You know who the previous Bears 1st round pick was to make to the Pro Bowl with the team? Tommie Harris, who was drafted in 2004. Hopefully we don't have wait another decade for the Bears to draft a 1st round pro-bowler.

Hopefully we don't have wait another decade for the Bears to draft a 1st round pro-bowler. i did this a couple years ago but found that out of 1st round picks this century (which starts in 2001, conveniently excluding urlacher), the bears had the fewest pro bowlers . raiders were worse for a little bit until khalil mack got them there, it was just him and nmadi for a long while. cleveland is weird on that list because they've drafted nobody good forever except the best LT who made a million pro bowls mastershakeman fucked around with this message at 21:35 on Jan 5, 2018 |

it's weird but good that joe thomas has gotten the amount of recognition that he has normally you'd think the way linemen get recognition is by blocking for a dominant running game (which cleveland hasn't had except for the one weird peyton hillis year) or by providing reliable protection to a productive QB (where cleveland has had only trash idiots who can run into sacks even when they are protected) I guess there are more football nerds who actually pay attention to line play than I thought

kind of an odd move unless the Lions are going to force Austin on the new HC. otherwise they’re loving him over.

Eh, may not be nice but I can't fault them for not wanting their DC to go be DC for a division rival.

Yeah, they already let him interview for Cincinnati so it's a clear case of "gently caress the Packers" more than anything else.

It's pretty hilarious the Lions and Vikings care more about sorta being spiteful toward a division rival than treating their own personnel right. Surely this won't be a consideration for any quality coaching talent they try to attract in the future.

BGrifter posted:It's pretty hilarious the Lions and Vikings care more about sorta being spiteful toward a division rival than treating their own personnel right. I suspect they've already addressed it with Austin. If not, you'll hear reports that he's pissed or you will find out he's released from the team in the next couple of days. Sometimes coordinators use the team to say no for them, if they think it could be an ugly situation and don't want to burn bridges. And thinks are strangely uncertain in Green Bay at the moment.

Austin not wanting to be a Packer seems like a perfectly reasonable thing to assume.

Entirely possible, but not as funny as the Lions being that petty.

i agree that its very likely coaches may not want to take a job with the lions now that they know the lions will deny them an opportunity to interview with the packers while under contract. this is a real concern most coaches in the league share.

Russ Ball getting hired and McCarthy quitting might be the best option for GB at this point in time IMO.

OxySnake posted:Russ Ball getting hired and McCarthy quitting might be the best option for GB at this point in time IMO. My big problem with that is that if that happens, we'll probably lose Gutekunst and Wolf both too. So now we have a glorified accountant as GM, losing our head coach, top two scouting directors, and Rodgers is pissed. Supposedly Ball is a very close ally of Ted Thompson. Him as GM would probably be more of Ted.

I don't think I buy the talk from McGinn (or from Florio plagiarizing and then five articles later actually quoting McGinn) that Ball is any sort of front-runner

SKULL.GIF posted:Yes I had figured the shake-up was a sign of the team moving to a more strongly Win Now personnel management model (I think they need to be operating with the assumption of a roughly 3-year window, since, while rodgers ~might keep playing at a top level to the age of 40 like Brady, you can't count on that) but if Ball is a mini-Thompson, as described, it sounds like that might not be the case
