To be fair, if you don't hate your OC then they're either going to leave in a year or two to get a HC gig, or they'll regress and coast on previous success until they're finally fired. Good OCs don't stay good OCs. They regress to bad OCs or become HCs.

Maybe Irsay is really enamored with one of next year's QBs, or he is willing to tank the franchise for the next few years for Arch Manning.

Ballard absolutely does not want to hire Saturday. My guess is Irsay would like to, but won't force the issue if Ballard feels strongly about another good candidate. Not interested in Quinn though.

Not sure how much that matters one way or the other but I think I might roll the dice on Kafka being a big part of the Giants not being rear end on offense.

remember the time the Reid-era Eagles tried to make Kafka a QC coach while he was still on the practice squad as a QB so other teams couldn't poach him

Daboll's had a fairly long career, and is a pretty good reason to give a guy.... a 4th chance. Not quite sure what the Dolphins and Chiefs were doing though. Graduate assistant 97-99 Patriots - Defensive assistant 00-01 Patriots - WR coach 02-06 Jets - QB coach 07-08 <here there be dragons> Browns - OC 09-10 (some of the worst offenses in the league) Dolphins - OC 11 (20th ranked, up from 30th the year before) Chiefs - OC 12 (from 31st to dead last) <demotion time> Patriots - TE Coach 13-16 Alabama - OC 17 Bills - OC 18-21

Daboll has been with a LOT of teams. Most years accumulated with the Pats, but he bounced around quite a bit.

If your team is bad it's the OC's fault If your team is good the OC is holding them back

YOLOsubmarine posted:Daboll has been with a LOT of teams. Most years accumulated with the Pats, but he bounced around quite a bit. Yeah he's definitely bounced around a lot but he's got multiple years other than with Belichick coaching for Nick Saban or Eric Mangini or Romeo Crennell. There's a lot of that coaching tree involved for him. I mean the recent results are excellent, just saying there's a whole lot of that going on here.

Yeah, Daboll's a pretty good example of why you need to give ~*retreads*~ second chances, because anyone would want him exiled to siberia after that Browns - Dolphins - Chiefs run, but welp.

Sometimes they do actually learn and adapt too. Like for instance, he was never terrible but Dan Quinn does seem to have incorporated some new ideas into the way he runs defenses these days. Not all the retreads are doomed to be mediocre forever. Even for the good ones like Andy Reid sometimes it’s literally just a change of scenery and all the pieces fall into place.

That seems a lot more relevant than what happened 7 years ago. The issue isn’t really retreads, it’s guys getting fired for being bad and almost immediately getting hired to do the same job somewhere else. Going back down a few rungs and working your way back up is a good thing.

I wish archive was easier to search, it'd be pretty fun to go see the response to the Dolphins / Chiefs hiring Daboll back then.

Kolb had an injury, and the Eagles didn't want to risk Feeley or McNabb in the final preseason game. The NFL let them sign Nagy (who had previously played in the AFL) and then changed their mind the next day. Either because Nagy was technically still under contract to his AFL team, or because the league didn't want teams hiding players in their coaching ranks.
