Current head coaches who had either one year of coordinator experience or less than that:

• Zac Taylor, Bengals (no coordinator experience)
• Kevin Stefanksi, Browns (one year as Vikings OC; had a 3-game interim stint season prior)
• Mike Tomlin, Steelers (one year as Vikings DC prior to landing Steelers HC gig)
• Dan Campbell, Lions (no coordinator experience; 12 game interim HC stint in 2015, six years prior to landing Detroit HC gig)
• Mike McDaniel, Dolphins (one year as 49ers OC, was not playcaller)

This hire ultimately may be a colossal failure, but it's not like experience is a prerequisite to success.

Also Andy Reid went from QB Coach to Head Coach of the Eagles

Just incase it hasn't been posted here yet, here's a vid of NFL following his day to day when he was with the Bills. Definitely a grinder and well respected at the schools he visits, and Beane.

okay give him a shot, but why?  What are his accomplishments? 

What did Brandon Beane accomplish before being hired by the Bills? IT goes both ways. Just cuz Bleacher Report or the media doesn't report it or know behind closed doors, doesn't mean people on the inside don't know. Or not know. Doesn't hurt to interview.

nope, clear house don't want anyone who has the stench to remain

One of the only good things Gettleman left us was this quote: Sometimes, the answer is on your roster.

aka, Brandon Beane, who was considered 'trash' after being twice looked over for being a Marty Hurney, then a Gettleman holdover. Now look where he is and how consistent they've been. It's a damn shame.

Give Morgan a shot, cuz you never know. Sometimes the answer is on your roster.

Love This interview with him, he just sounds like a head coach

Another point that may be in his favor is that in between the Commanders and 49ers he spent 3 years as an analyst for PFF, one of the #1 analytics NFL sites. Tepper would like that.

Slowik is intriguing for sure, as someone who was high on Stroud in the draft I don't know how much of it is talent vs coaching but you can't argue with results. He's a bit too green for me though. 1 year as OC to HC is a huge jump. The guy who started the young offensive mind trend, McVay, despite being super young had 3 full seasons as OC before the Rams hired him. Steichen had 3 full seasons and 1 partial as interim OC. If we go young offensive mind I'd prefer at least 2 years of OC experience.

I mean Andy Reid jumped from QB Coach to HC of the Eagles. It's rare, but it does happen.

I mean the huddle hates Frank and wants him gone so can you fault Tepper for firing him? It’s literally damned if you do damned if you don’t but I also think Fitt is gone too.

I agree, if any changes are made, its a house cleaning and starting with a new GM search. Not finding the right players to fit Reichs scheme is just as much responsibility on Fitt as it is on Reich to execute imho.

Glad I placed my bet when it was +225 before all this Stroud stuff started coming out.

I made mention of this in another thread. Somebody messed up his uniform. 

Ahh gotcha, such a weird bungle to happen on a players uniform.

That was low key a great effort by Sam on 4th down. Should've kicked the field goal though. Our offense can't move the ball through the air and it's been that way all season. Our best receiver is Moore, but the tight ends don't threaten anyone on the edges or in the middle of the field so safeties almost always go with the receivers.

He was so close to the end zone he should've ran it in. Oh well.

I keep looking that maybe the 8 got the middle ripped off on his back, but no it looks like he has a zero back, 8 front. Am I seeing things??

Snow probably either walks out and resigns or just lets Wilks call the D. I don’t think he’s going to follow Rhule. He will probably retire and Cooper will be his next coordinator 

Nah, it'll more likely be Wilks right hand man: Al Holcomb.

I've been trying to keep some minuet flicker of hope for this season, but our guys look like they're over it. There's just no fight in them, and that shows a lack of faith in the direction Rhule is driving them. You can see it between plays, they just look defeated in the 1st quarter. The team leaders that are still trying are fighting an uphill battle right now trying to rally the team, and it just sucks. We had such a good window of opportunity to take the division back when Brees/Brady did/about to retire, Sean Payton gone and now Matt Ryan too. 3 years to build, but it's hard to keep the torch lit.

I bet Beane and McDermott are eating steaks right now and enjoying how much we messed up letting them walk. "Sometimes the answer is on your roster" was right with them. It's a damn shame.

Anybody made a GIF of that shot of Tepper shaking his head yet?

Not if you choose the right guy.

I'm saying with so many options, they choice maybe taken away from us because there are so few actually good candidates, that 'sometimes the answer is on your roster'(for this year)

And now, we'd be the 10th team looking, if we joined the mosh pit of this huge HC carousel

 Bad time for the Panthers to make very questionable hiring decisions. Dennis Allen looking for a HC gig with the Bears, sounds like S.P is going to walk soon also. Saints may be going down hard.

Brady may be gone next season. Meanwhile the Panthers aren't taking advantage of the situation as usual. Keeping an inept HC and bringing in a OC that is less then promising.

They should move fast and hard to secure the HC that can move them foward and should have chosen a OC who is not a retread with a questionable track record.

Unfortunately I have little faith in this front office and owner at this time. We are behind the eight ball again.

 

There are 8 other teams we'd have to compete with to find a new HC, when the average is 5-7 per year at best. Big picture? Not a good time to compete for 2nd or 3rd best. Next year, if we still need to, then there'll probably be less competition.

We should've kept Teddy. Oh well.

Michael Jordan experiment  

I noticed rewatching that they shifted Erving to guard and Scott to LT by the 4th quarter. 2 quarters too lat imho

Just now, Eazy-E said:

We had the same problems with Teddy and now with Darnold. The only common denominator there is Brady.

God I hope LSU hires him.

Same. I hope Wonder Boy goes back to Gotham, im so tired if all these “offensive geniuses” coming in on a red carpet when they havent earned poo yet. This is definitely NOT a Saints offense. No rhythm, no adjustments, i spotted 5 plays that we did last week - and their defense did too. Cant get our quarterback on rhythm, keeps making all these deep routes instead of letting Darnold get a few short quick ones to give him some confidence and takes pressure off the offensive line. Put the defense on the back of their heels instead of doing the exact same poo over and again. 
 

and i give some of the offensive blame to Rhule too since he didnt hire a former offensive coordinator to help mentor and guide Brady as a position coach, instead of Blunder Boy all alone with only ONE season as a college passing coordinator.

When you’re this heavily invested into the defense they can’t blow games like this. 200 something rushing yards and over 400 passing. What will the excuse be this time?

Also Brady needs to be fired after today’s garbage.

Bradys playcalling and terrible 3rd down efficiency killed our defense cuz it kept them out there way longer then they should’ve. The left hand needs to help the right, and our offense is killing probably our best defense since 2015. 

I mean who that leader that rallys the offense and holds people accountable? Cuz it definitely isnt Darnold. Maybe the Jets damage is done and he cant be un-broken. I would say Robby, but Robby needs to catch to be able to backup his passion for people to listen. I WISH DJ would become that person. 
 

we just cant wait for CMC to keep bailing is out, offense needs to step the F!?* up, and its starts with the “boy wonder” hiding in the booth.

So many opportunities, and once again the defense and special teams is having to work overtime to make up for this lackluster offense. 
 

This is some mickey mouse BS

He never throws to the underneath!!! Its 1st and 20, we have time, stop throwing into triple coverage Darnold!! 
 

3rd time today hes done that…
