It was actually covered in here, FWIW.

Lol. In fairness, keep in mind that Steve Smith still has a chip on his shoulder about his scouting evaluation. Not saying he doesn't have a point but he also might be more than a little biased.

We do have a thread about all this, BTW.

Depends on how smitten he is with Payton. That's one rumor that just keeps trucking on, valid or not. Keep in mind he did give Jimmy Johnson that level of control so it isn't completely unprecedented for him.

Makes me think that it will really take a Raiders/Gruden scenario for him to be able to return. Maybe the Cowboys in the future? I think a lot of these owners are wise to giving over complete control to a head coach.

Well, I guess the next question is did Tepper enjoy watching? What if he was beating off to Dan Morgan and Tepper was also into it?

I'd be very confused why they wouldn't immediately hire him with that sort of confidence.

Yeah, Wilks just seems to be doing the same thing we have done basically forever. Not that it is the worst thing ever but it hasn't led to back to back winning seasons and has only led to 7 winning seasons in 28 years. But....I guess we did get Superb Owl appearances with the last two versions of Steve Wilks.

To us? What sports radio?

Yeah, exactly. It seemed pretty obvious.

I can totally imagine that. I can imagine what they looked like as I was in the fetal position, hyperventilating with laughter.

I don't know why they tried to run it again after the TO. Then again, when I saw the pass, I did immediately think that wasn't where Dak was probably supposed to go with the ball.

The Bieniemy scenario is so profoundly strange. The fact that he hasn't been hired is a red flag alone. He must really not interview well at all.

I can't necessarily agree with that. He might be an imperfect candidate but Hackett was just what his name suggested. His coaching history literally did prove that prior to being hired.

That would be interesting to see it move that fast.

Well, I mean.....it does kind of sound like we aren't going to let him pick all his coaches here so.....

We were extremely luck to get what we did for CMC. There were not going to be many suitors at what they traded for him. That was actually a huge win for Fitterer.

That's a very bad comparision. Moore actually does call plays, Hackett did not at Green Bay.

I like Levis more than most but this is the least credible person that you could dig up on QB evaluation.

IDK....that is a hell of a gamble. I sort of feel like he might be a guy that we talk about as being a good coach in his second stint.

I almost spit coffee all over this laptop.

Wilks/McAdoo being back as a combo is just waving the white flag and admitting you don't plan on ever improving. I can stomach Wilks to an extent but not McAdoo.

Of the candidates available, he probably has the best connections for building a staff. I think he is more likely to be able to attract coaches than Payton and any of the younger candidates.

I don't think Young wouldn't fit with Reich. He is the best pure QB of the bunch.
