It better be a QB or DE in the 1st if we are drafting in the top 10. We already have our LT. Hell I believe you should only draft 3 positions in the 1st and that's QB, LT or DE. I could go DT or DE/LB in the to 20. But in the top 5 to 10 that would be my top targets unless I had a full cupboard of the 3 already. After that I would target WR or TE if the opportunity presented itself to get a good one. By then we would be drafting in the 28 to 32 range so the sky's the limit.

It probably mean that he will call the game differently and rotate personnel more frequently. That's about all he can do besides running different plays.

Hire Kevin Colbert as a consultant please. And most of all listen to the man.

No but Fitterer did. Just saying.

I guess I tend to look at things like influence through a seniority lense. I'm trying to motivate a team of individuals are like herding cats, it's almost impossible. People tend to relate to someone through common experiences in life. It's a generational thing that only someone of you generation can relate to. In sports or the corporate world it's all the same. In a typical successful organization the senior managers are older and more experienced just as in sports with coaching. And just like the corporate world there is a point where a disconnect between managers and the hierarchy of the remaining staff just cannot communicate. They cannot communicate on the same level because technlogy and HR have made the guys with the most knowledge and experience obsolete.

I wouldn't be so sure it was Tepper who chose Wilks. He may have suggested or even issued a directive to someone else that a competent nfl coach be hired. Someone with nfl head coaching experience but not specifically who that must be. Now having said that, I would not be surprised if he also didn’t give a second direct to a certain individual to look for a possible replacement for the person that is the reason for why he had to issue the first directive. But that just me.

The only problem I see with those guys is that they have not evolved with the game. It's hard to predict how their system will compliment or mesh with these players that are young enough to be grandkids to most of the coaches.

They are like having the huddle translated from text to audio. I would have to go stone cold sober on my huddle fixation.

J Stew should be a broadcaster for the team. I'm not a podcast listener but I may consider listening to his. Those other guys though.

I know right?! That...just don't look real.

It just seems like there's quite a few...umm...relics on that list.

Who among are under 65? I kid... Seriously

My theory, besides the 49s playing prevent defense, is that the calls were different, same plays they all know but using the wr's he's practiced with.

As my grandpa would say "You know what arguing with a fool makes you? A fool ".

Well this thread has gone sideways.

It's going to be hilarious around here when Sam has to start. The wailing and nashing of teeth will epic. It will be even more hilarious if he performs well. And the same folks that he's touched in their privates are going to go full on meltdown. But anyway, it's going to be a revolving door between the qbs this season.

Maybe he wasn't given the opportunity to have an exit presser? He barely got to speak to the team before he had to clean out his office. I'm sure any reporter could roll up to his house and stick a microphone and camera in his face to get his response to being let go if they wanted to.

That's what every team says about a player they pick. I never believe any of the coach speak about draft grades. It's only to boost the players confidence and make the fans happy about a perceived steal in the draft.

Well seeing as we have no qb to speak of it only makes sense. What else can he really do with this sh*t sandwich he's been handed?

If it happens it would have to be someone familiar with McAdoos playbook or be able to take the same verbage to create something different in a few weeks.

He should be embarrassed! I've been embarrassed by the product he put on the field also. I've been embarrassed to call myself a fan of his dysfunctional team. I'm embarrassed by the way he's handled the commitment he promised Rock Hill. Yeah he should be embarrassed alright.

If true I suspect CMC and Robby asked for this.

Poor PJ stuck out there without a net. He doesn't have Rhule to save his ass now.
