Not a fan of this, whether its the "right" move. The main reason people mention to hire an offensive coach is so you don't have your playcaller under constant turnover like what happens in many cases. If we were going to do this, we should just hire a higher caliber defensive coach, since I feel like you can get a much better defensive coach prospect as the demand is much lower.

I mean, he has not looked remotely the same after his stretch of games where he went off. Even when he was given a lot of carries after Chuba came back. Just from the eye test he looked much slower and wasn't breaking any tackles

What about Kayden McDonald? I don't watch a ton of college football, so genuinely asking, I just have heard his named mentioned in some stuff as a possible pick. Not an edge player though, but maybe it frees up DB more

Agreed, and thats saying something when we've seen Mingo...

It is interesting how the games changed over the past 10-15 years. I mainly started watching football in like 2010 or so. I feel like every week there were QBs throwing for 400+, 300 yards was a pedestrian day it felt like. Now even the best qbs dont throw for 300 super often it feels.

I know teams have been selling out to stop the run, but Ricos kind of fallen off a cliff.. not sure if hes hurt or just worn down but even when theres a hole he doesnt look anything like he did those few weeks prior.

Unfortunately for us, we may also be falling into that impossible category lol

Never said he was a bad offensive coordinator, but he's not a head coach, we've seen that play out in two places now

Josh McDaniels? You're just ragebaiting at this point

Pete Carroll? I know hes old and they dont look great, I dont really follow the coaching rumors but people think hes gone after only a year?

Hes not young though, hes a 23 year old rookie

They certainly make offensive football look simple compared to us lol

Yeah Im kind of in the boat of a full house cleaning. I feel like we have been trapped in this off cycle replacement of GMs/HCs ever since we kept Hurney around after firing Ron. I worry though who would come here, especially from the HC angle if Canales only gets two years, and not with his own QB. I think Im in the camp of fire both this year, or give one more year with their choice of QB and see if its any different. I do wonder if Canales regrets declaring BY "our guy" last year when he was on his "good" run. He may have tied himself to the hip with that one.

I mean Ron was fine, but instead of yelling at halftime when they were blown out by Pittsburgh, Id prefer he use a bit more smarts and not put Donte Jackson on prime AB 1 on 1 and then be mad when he gets torched

Yeah, he did kind of tie himself last year, saying he was our guy, at the same time though, I know its only perception and maybe it doesnt matter/shouldnt affect Teppers decision, but blowing another headcoach out so quickly is not going to look good. I know its 1/32 and feels like it doesnt matter and coaches will come and try regardless, I just wonder if at some point that ends up mattering, or maybe it has already since Canales wasnt exactly sought after.
