Probably no less qualified than Tepper himself anyways

Wilks is the man, great dude and I'm happy for him having a pretty successful run as interim HC (relatively speaking). That said, he is not the right man for the job here if we want to seriously attempt to turn this team into a Super Bowl contender. Has nothing to do with his leadership ability (which is great), his race (which is irrelevant) or anything else Wilks supporters will point to. It has to do with the direction the league has been trending. Wilks coaches an old school conservative, defense oriented game which is not how you win in the current league atmosphere (rules, league-wide scheming/strategy, etc.). You need a franchise QB which needs to be developed by a bright (often young) offensive mind. If you go with a defensive HC and have the bright offensive mind as your OC, he's going to get poached by another team if he's any good. Going with Wilks or any other defensive minded HC will continue to set this team back. I don't like this reality, I love old school football like Wilks coaches, like Rivera coached, etc. But it is the reality of the league, you need offense to win and in particular you need a top tier passing offense. Wilks, no matter who he tries to bring in at OC will not be able to offer that in the longer run. Harbaugh would be great as a bright offensive mind who has a proven track record of success in the NFL and not only in the W/L column but in getting the absolute most out of a few average QBs in Smith and Kaepernick. That's why he's my #1 choice, as unlikely as it seems now with the reports about Tepper rejecting him essentially. After that, get a young OC who has had success like the Eagles guy. Going with a retread is a mistake and going with any defensive guy is a mistake.

Didn't see a thread on this, see below. If we can get a legit HC and an even average QB this doesn't look so bad at all. NFC South and AFC South both suck so we've got plenty of opportunity next year if we can get our shgit together Home Away Atlanta Falcons Atlanta Falcons New Orleans Saints New Orleans Saints Tampa Bay Buccaneers Tampa Bay Buccaneers Green Bay Packers Chicago Bears Minnesota Vikings Detroit Lions Houston Texans Jacksonville Jaguars Indianapolis Colts Tennessee Titans Dallas Cowboys Seattle Seahawks Miami Dolphins

We hire Reich, draft a linebacker, trade for Carr and continue to suck ass next year

Dude Fields just led his team to the 1st overall pick and you think he'd save this franchise? lol

I can't imagine what legitimate HC prospect would have any interest in going to Houston. People think our situation is bad but theirs is 10x worse.

Chiefs, Jags, or Ravens; in that order.

Corbett is already under contract the next 2 years

he'll be cut if we can re-sign Boze otherwise we keep him. also he was rock solid before his injury, I don't get the hate

Coming from someone who desperately wanted Fields in that draft and at the time thought we completely blew it passing on him, I actually think they should trade him. He's a very poor man's Lamar, who I'm not particularly a huge fan of either. 3 years away from likely being overpaid like Lamar will be, Kyler is, etc. I'd take a shot on Young or Stroud over Fields. But I bet they trade the pick and keep Fields.

I'm thinking Arizona at 4. Houston takes Young or Stroud, we trade up and get the other at 4. Will cost roughly the equivalent of what we got for McCaffrey, which ain't too steep of a price IMO.

who do you want? I'd seriously look at trading up to nab either Young or Stroud.

lol what an embarrassing win. fug this team so hard

this team is such a fuging joke lol

dumb from Foreman but I hope we bring him back for relatively cheap next year. He's a real solid back running between the tackles which every team needs one of.

Including Hurts

a loss today with the Falcons winning would be nice, would stink to be picking behind them

Jags pass rush dominating

We’ll see. I bet he comes back next year with a healthy Stafford/Kupp/Donald and they are a contender in the NFC

Probably kinda. On in the background while doing other stuff too.

Idk but if he is that also goes against Flores’ case — Ross fired a black coach because he’s racist only to hire a black biracial coach to replace him? Really?

The rest of the team around him absolutely blows. This kid will win big with a legit team around him. Hopefully it's here with Wemby and Bridges next year, but I won't be surprised when fans like you and our dumbass owner run him out of town and he wins a few championships with the Lakers or Celtics.

Does that further validate Flores though? If anything I think it'd do the opposite -- suggest Ross isn't racist, just stupid.

It sucks for the Bills especially since it's their teammate who went down but they were losing that game, just give Cincy the win and leave it at that.

They have a lot of holes, I see them taking the best defensive player. Maybe they fall in love with a QB there, I can see it going either way but my best guess would be them taking a D. Unless Stroud or Young fall (they won't) I don't like our chances at getting a franchise QB this draft, but I'd still try with Levis or whoever. We gotta just start throwing those darts out there on legit top prospects. Corral doesn't fit that bill. If whoever we draft this year sucks for 2 years, then try again and rinse and repeat until we solve the issue.
