  1. Impressive. This guy could be our interim HC if Rhule doesn’t get his stuff together. I’m hoping these hires are signs he’s finally getting it.
  2. Maybe that was as much an indicator of Brady’s liabilities as Rhule’s micromanagement. If so, it may explain why he finally cut ties. No confidence in the offensive development. Not excusing Rhule - just connecting dots.
  3. Which no doubt helps to explain their dismissals. Good riddance - especially Pat Meyer.
  4. Yup…hope these recent hires signal an adjustment in his approach. It will have to be for things to change. Both coordinators have HC experience (Tabor was interim for one game) and I hope Rhule will be smart enough to draw from that.
  5. Hope we have a chance to correct that since Campen has history with McAdoo and the coaching staff in Houston is unsettled.
  6. Agree I’m being optimistic but the incompetence was real. I’m hoping it’s a sign of growing pains for an inexperienced college coach that needs more time. However, Tepper and us fans have to see significant change on the field to regain any confidence.
  7. A good leader surrounds himself with smart people, even if they’re smarter than he is. I’m hoping the hiring of experienced is encouraging sign that we’re trending upward.
  8. This is a great hire for us. Tabor is a Dave Toub protégée, the ST guru who’s coached the Bears in the past and currently the Chiefs. I’m glad Rhule is bringing aboard coaches with prior NFL experience and successful results.
  9. Actually drafting a QB like Pickett does make some sense. There’s a strong possibility that Darnold won’t be playing for us beyond next season. If that’s the case, who else do we have behind him as a Bonaire starter….PJ Walker? Don’t think so. And does Rhule and co want to gamble on a rookie in ‘23 when your odds are better finding a potential “franchise” QB with a top 10 pick this year? Ideally you could sit him behind Darnold and groom him to take over in ‘23 rather than putting pressure on a rookie to carry the offense. Yes, we need OL but we’re spinning our wheels until we get the QB position settled. Don’t be surprised if we go OL in FA with an eye toward find a permanent starter at QB for 2023 and beyond. JMO
  10. So am I. McCaughey turning us down may be a blessing in disguise if we can get Tabor. He’s highly regarded within the Bears’ organization. https://heavy.com/sports/chicago-bears/urged-keep-sean-desai-chris-tabor/amp/
  11. Guys didn’t come to play tonight. Must have one eye on the NFL playoffs. Getting our butts handed to us at home.
  12. A different challenge for sure. Physicality hasn’t been synonymous with the Panthers ‘ OL for a few years now. It would be a refreshing change for sure. Ditto on an efficient passing game to complement the running game. Another reason we absolutely need to get the new OL coaching hire right.
  13. The Dad Bod Squad. That’s the name I heard on WFNZ. And those guys would know!
  14. He’s good but I’d rather have new blood. And Matsko is still coaching with Rivera in Washington unless I missed something.
  15. Campen would be my top choice based on experience and familiarity with McAdoo followed by Warhop or Flaherty. Sparano should remain on as an assistant to whichever experienced guy we bring in.
  16. Believe me, we dodged a bullet passing up on Gruden. He’s overrated IMO and his tenure in Washington didn’t end well either.
  17. Joe Brady’s biggest flaw was his lack of experience as a play caller on the pro level. He was more of an offensive assistant/passing game coordinator with New Orleans and LSU respectively. Contrast that with McAdoo, who has years of experience in various offensive roles and has worked with future HOF QBs in Manning and Rodgers and the choice is obvious. His stint as a HC and eye for personnel (he really banged the table for the Giants to draft Mahomes) is a bonus. An unspectacular hire but a solid one. We’d be fooling ourselves thinking a Bill O’Brien, Pep Hamilton or someone else of notoriety would eagerly come here under the current coaching and personnel situation.
  18. I’m hoping they adopt the same approach of casting a wide net to bring in the best OL coaching we can get.
  19. He’s worked with some of the best QBs in Aaron Rodgers and Eli Manning, future HOFers. It’s been said the Rodgers really liked him and gave him a huge endorsement when he took the Giants’ gig. Say what you want about his fallacies as a HC, but there’s no questioning the man’s play calling abilities. Obviously, his success here will hinge on how well they fill the OL coaching vacancy and improve the OL and QB issues. Overall, a solid if unspectacular hire IMO.
  20. We got the ‘Dad Bod Squad’ with Rhule and McAdoo.
  21. Definitely the best of the candidates we’ve brought in. Of course, that’s not saying much but we have to play the hand we’re dealt under current circumstances. On the bright side, he’s got extensive pro experience on offense and rose to prominence with the Packers and Aaron Rodgers. Although he flamed out as HC, there’s no reason to think he can’t improve our inept offense based on his experience. Eagerly awaiting the OL staff and players next.
  22. Meh disappointing but not surprising. Maybe waiting to see what happens with the Texans. They’re rumored to be in play for Brian Flores and he may decide to remain there as OC. Next…..
  23. Not my favorite selection, but when you look up MacAdoo’s history, this guys has an impressive resume and extensive experience with offensive position coaching including OL, QB, QC and TE. The HC experience, although it didn’t end well, could be just what Rhule needs to balance his own fallacies. Maybe not the “ rockstar” the fans are clamoring for but he may be just what we need. And some guys are just better as coordinators than they are as HC. Check out the history below: a coach: Homer-Center (PA) HS (1996–1997) Assistant coach Indiana Area (PA) HS (1998–1999) Assistant coach Michigan State (2001) Graduate assistant Fairfield (2002) Offensive line coach and tight ends coach Pittsburgh (2003) Graduate assistant New Orleans Saints (2004) Offensive quality control coordinator San Francisco 49ers (2005) Offensive line coach and offensive quality control coordinator Green Bay Packers (2006–2011) Tight ends coach Green Bay Packers (2012–2013) Quarterbacks coach New York Giants (2014–2015) Offensive coordinator New York Giants (2016–2017) Head coach Jacksonville Jaguars (2020) Quarterbacks coach Dallas Cowboys (2021–present)
  24. Can’t understand why JB won’t play Bouknight especially when we went dry in the 4th but nice win!
