I too would absolutely tell Tepper I can scheme around BY and get him to develop a Jump Ball to make it work if it meant getting tens of millions

Firing Caroll makes sense if you take into account his age and the fact the Seattle D has not been good for years and that was his side of the ball

Shinji2015 posted:Vrabel feels a lot more likely than Bill at this point to get a job. Like Impossibly Perfect Sphere said, Bill only makes sense on a team that's ready to go (like Philly), and while I liked him for Atlanta, they probably want a guy that will be around for more than three years. And that's the problem. Any team that's ready to go probably already has a front office in place, and they're not going to give Belichick the total dictatorial control he's grown accustomed to. He already walked away from Atlanta because he didn't think he could work with Rich McKay; and if you can't collaborate with one of the longest-tenured and most respected execs in the league, who can you actually do that with? He probably really is done.

A Sneaker Broker posted:Counterpoint: DeMeco Ryans It’s true but Ryans was also a player who immediately has that credibility and understanding of a locker room. Staley and Macdonald are these more soft spoken non-player defensive types and it’s clear from Staley that it doesn’t guarantee you a good defense

Although AndrewP pointed out Ryans was a former player, Pierce is too. Mayo and Vrabel as well. Maybe it's less that Staley ruined the reps of skinny young white guy scheme dorks and Dan Campbell is ushering in the era of cool vibes dudes who make a good culture because they've been there

Docjowles posted:Both Vrabel and Belichick being without a chair when the music stops would be loving wild It's really not that wild for Vrabel. I understand dude won COTY for that season where he navigated the injuries so well, but keep in mind that Mike Vrabel is an abrasive meathead (unlike Dan Campbell's endearing meathead), who inherited a playoff team and drove it into the ground once he had to coach up the next generation of dudes while alienating existing players who went off to have good seasons elsewhere and having rosters with the highest injury rate in the league for multiple seasons and all the while asking for MORE roster control. He's inflexible, keeping his circle of buddies on staff long past when they should have hosed off. He's a good coach. He has the ability to connect with a certain kind of player. His players, even the ones that hate him, acknowledge that. But I don't think he's a great one, and multiple jobs now have hired someone else.

https://twitter.com/ProFootballTalk/status/1750557793319346654 I suspect most Bills fans (who can name coaches) would give Washington a Meh rating. The DL hasn't been a train wreck to generate hatred the way the previous OL coach achieved it, but the same time the DL hasn't been a unit that has consistently lived up to high standards or the investment it had recieved. However he has also been the assistant HC for a while so McDermott must rate him.

SKULL.GIF posted:He's getting a huge salary bump and now his name will permanently be on the Head Coach lists and under consideration for every other job out there unless he bombs so hard he goes 0-17. Also for this particular job, if he does suck and gets fired, a bunch of people will probably give him a pass for the owner being a dumbass. Worst case scenario is he goes back to being an OC with money in the back and a nicer resume.

When a first year coordinator leads a team with Evans and Godwin to twentieth in points and 23rd in total yards, in the dogshit nfc south including a 9 point explosion in a must win game against the panthers….well you gotta jump on that.

But they did average nearly 28ppg in the playoffs. I'd be willing to bet he'll win you over, he's a pretty good coach and the players absolutely love him. If he can't get the morale of that team turned around it probably will never happen. He's at least willing to coach to the players strengths and willing to adapt when needed. He might commit to the run a bit too much though, but maybe Bowles was forcing that. Just be happy it's not Byron Leftwich.

Impossibly Perfect Sphere posted:Can't believe he didn't win while the GM traded away good players and drafted total crap for three years. I don’t think having a bad GM completely exonerates him. Do you just assume Vrabel was sitting in his office, seething year after year while the GM kneecapped him with lovely rosters with no input? Vrabel owns some amount of the flak for the state of that roster. Regardless of what input he has on draft picks, you can go year after year of his teams and see the Vrabel guys that kept turning out to be wet farts. The Geoff Swaim’s and Trevon Wescoe’s and Aaron Brewer’s and Andre Dillard’s that he was stoked for that never contributed or underperformed at best. Tbf he did bring us Nuk, which owned. Again, this is on top of running guys like David Long and Adoree Jackson out of town, who went on to contribute for other teams. Wesley Woodyard called into the Nashville morning show yesterday to talk about the state of that team in 2018 when Vrabel got there. It’s pretty clear that Vrabel is the kind of coach to force a team into his mold instead of coaching what he actually has, to the point of making everyone in the locker room miserable until he surrounded himself with enough guys that fit his type to build that leader of men rep he carries now. https://youtu.be/Lm6e3U79_VI?si=AR1FNtQTzijbZz05 I do maintain he’s a good coach, but not great. He has an incredible wealth of rules knowledge that he uses actively in games to gain edges and wins. He plans well. He’ll probably win a lot of football games in the future, but I think the media is giving him more credit than he deserves after his first HC gig
