Why someone has to name Bill Cowher when we are about to find a new coach? You really think he would like to?

Most realistic options to me...

 

- Gary Kubiak

- Pep Hamilton

- Tom Clements

- Todd Bowles

 

Others I'd consider possible...

 

- Kyle Shanahan

- Frank Reich

- Darrell Bevell

- Dan Quinn

- Hue Jackson

- Dave Toub

- Brad Seely

 

Who I'd classify as unlikely...

 

- Jim Harbaugh

- Perry Fewell

- Tom Coughlin (as a coach, at least)

- Any of the college guys

- Any of the TV guys

- Any of the 'hot seat' guys

 

And under the category of 'no way in hell'...

 

- Anybody currently on the Panthers staff

 

Pep Hamilton should be a top candidate and Todd Bowles as well. If the Panthers really do make changes they will have to move quick because i can definitely see Pep going to San Francisco and Todd Bowles will be a hot candidate.

Whole lotta people believe the 49ers offseason will see Harbaugh move on and Hamilton take his place.  It actually does seem like a viable scenario.

 

Did a quick search and found Zampese's had several OC interviews over the past several years; Lions in 2014, Bengals in 2011, Bears in 2010 and Panthers in 2007 (obviously that one we knew about; we chose Jeff Davidson).  Obviously if he's anything like his dad he'd be good, but so far no one's given him that shot.

 

Titans stated today they don't plan to make any coaching changes, but that doesn't necessarily mean they would deny Mularkey permission to advance.  He's been a successful OC before but he always gives me kind of an 'old news' vibe.

 

I like Reich, but one year coordinators make me really nervous.

 

And yeah, Mangini coaching tight ends made me go "huh"?  he was an 'offensive assistant' once years ago.  Near as I can tell, that's his only offensive experience.  He didn't even play offense in high school or college.

I guess with Mangini, it's a 'stash' thing like Mike Nolan coaching WRs years ago. 

 

Only reason I bring up Mularkey is the combo with Clements.  Clements is probably going to run his own O, and even being able to ****** a guy like McAdoo on staff, I don't know if he's 'enough'.  Up and comer, shouldn't have been that bad but it's rare when an O guy like Coughlin installs an O that he's not familiar with.  So, Mularkey as an OC is a hedge.  He runs it, but he's not the one making the decisions.  It's like when you'd have a Sherm Lewis or Gil Haskell as OC but the HC is calling the plays and the QBs coach is the one with play input.

      Does anyone actually think Bryce will actually be good?

      Those stats are quite pedestrian in today's NFL.   Not homerish at all.

      Don't forget we only ran like 26 rpo's total or something ridiculous like that. Like the qb isn't comfortable with under center play action, you don't give any pre snap motions or rpo's?

      First OTA's Monday and Tuesday

      No, but I was at an OTA  and I heard Fox make a smart comment to another coach about Clausen, and then Armanti Edwards after he dropped a Jugs punt.   He was bitter--it was his lame duck year and he was not involved in the draft--that is the draft Hurney went solo--tried to trade up from about 47 to 33 with the Rams to get Clausen--offering a future first, according to the Rams GM later.  Then the Colts bragged that they bluffed MH into thinking they wanted Armanti Edwards, which caused him to trade up into the third for a seventh round graded player.   Those were darker times than these.  But I am sure the press was comparing Clausen to Montana and Edwards was going to be the best slot WR in 2 years.
