Recommended Posts

Given this point of the season, there's a few categories I see: The expected-to-be-fired & surprise firings

 

Which coaches lie where in your mind?  And who are your guess replacements?

 

Expected:

 

49ers

New coach: Adam Gase

 

Bears

New coach: Dave Toub; GM: Chris Ballard

 

Jets

New coach: Doug Marrone GM: Ryan Pace

 

Oakland

New coach: Art Briles (Harbaugh ends up in Michigan)

*my out of the box hire, but this could be Bowles destination

 

Bills

New Coach: Darrell Bevell

 

Falcons

New coach: Rex Ryan

You don't put Pep Hamilton in San Francisco?

 

Pep and Gase are the two sweethearts in league circles so he could definitely be there.  Gase is my guess though just out of pure speculation.  

 

Those two will definitely land with storied franchises.     

 

Also, I think Bevell with Idzik in New York is a likely scenario.  They get an offensive minded coach tight with the FO so they know there won't be another Rex situation.

If Hamilton doesn't get the Niners, you think he stays in Indy?

 

Also wondering if you've looked at which coaches are likely to be delayed by playoffs (other than the Wild Card window) and which will be immediately available?

 

I was also thinking D philosophies. Bowles/Horton would be 3-4 guys going to 4-3 places.

    • I mean, you're acting like we don't see the tippy-toe bunny hops, jump throws more than normal (with both feet dangling in the air every which a way), and off-platform but off-balance throws that arrive lshort or sail high. Could that be bad mechanics due to being short? Could a seeming propensity to bail the pocket towards the sidelines early as opposed to sitting in the pocket tall and strong, surveying his reads be an attempt at trying to see an open throwing lane? I'm not saying that what you're saying isn't a contributing factor to what has been an underwhelming display of executing the QB position, but this is year three, and if the lightbulb hasn't switched on by now---if you haven't figured out that guys are faster, stronger and generally more athletic, then what's it going to take? It's hard to forget that "mental processing" was supposed to be Bryce Young's superpower. Are you telling me that he can't nail down such an easy concept as, "I can't get away with the things I did in college at the pro level," is that right? If he can't get past that, then that surely limits his ability to successfully execute all the other stuff.  Look, I'm not trying to be flippant. I acknowledge that playing pro football is more complex than a lot of fans realize, but all we can do, as fans, is observe. One of my favorite things to do is just look at the greater picture and think what part human nature is playing in the many decisions that are being made or have to be made. You're absolutely correct that fans don't know exactly what's going on, but that is by design, and in many ways it's just the nature of the beast. Some things we can't know. That being said, the professionals screw the hell up all the time. The professionals disagree all the time. These disagreements can be within the same franchise or from franchise to franchise. And sometimes these decisions are all over the place, so excuse me if I ain't exactly buying the I-know-more-than-thee sentiment and that that means that professionals always make better decisions than fans would about certain players. Some of this stuff is simply luck or a crapshoot.
    • Then please take a vacation from the team.
    • In addition to his weak arm he has to compensate in the pocket by throwing off his toes due to his height. Respectfully, its a handicap.
