I just cannot believe, that Gettleman, who appears to know football quite well, would allow the Panthers to continue to have the worst Offensive staff in the league (my belief) and the proven worst special teams staff in the league.

 

Dorsey/ Shula, really  really.   Logan was there and he could have done wonders for Newton.

 

That special teams coach, Rodgers, could be given all pros and still such...I just can't believe the 'injury' excuse was accepted...players are supposed to be coached up for the next man up...apparently that's not the case here.

 

I just don't understand why Ron would not want the best people he could get and he settles for these people.  We can say, oh well, no talent on the offense, throughout his career, Shula had teams with talent, what happened to them?  I have never heard one player say, that was a great game plan.

Coaching staff falls under the head coach.

 

For Gettleman to step in would mean stepping on Rivera's toes.  It's become clear Gettleman doesn't want to do that.

 

 

he said he prefers mobility to accuracy.

I'm glad we didn't get him.

 

Seriously?

 

Hell no to that.

yes, we know there are ways.

 

I just believe to have the best chance to win, to get the most out of the players, the best coaching staff has to be a part of it.  If we look at the staffs of the Super Bowl contenders, there is not one Shula like character on it.  They are innovative in methodlogy and preparation.  They don't use injuries as an excuse.

 

That's what I want for Carolina.  I can dream, I suppose.

Believe me, I've been one of the biggest advocates for staff changes you'll find.

Three of the best special teams coaches in the NFL were available for hire within the last few weeks. Rivera ignored all of them in favor of keeping Richard Rodgers.

If the ST sucks again next year, I'm sure he'll have another excuse why it isn't the coach's fault.

Later in the interview, Logan said he’d take “mobility at the sacrifice of accuracy.” In addition to Gage, who was converted into a defensive back in the NFL, Logan has coached Jeff Blake and David Garrard at East Carolina, Matt Ryan at Boston College and spent some time with Josh Freeman with the Buccaneers.

 

i never saw the interview or researched accuracy of that statement, so take it with a grain of salt. his words could have been twisted.

Logan has reached legendary status for a guy whose most recent spot on the resule was a RB coach for the 21st best offense of 2011.   I get there's the local tie but the "he'd obviously do better than _______" stuff, I don't know.  He was out of work for three years.  He might be a decent coach but at least 75% of the NFL has had some level of turnover since 2011 in offensive staff.    

 

I also think, people really underestimate that this is the O that Rivera wants.   He'd ask Mike Martz to run the ball a ton and set up 3rd down. 

 

 

Only somewhat related, reading that the 9ers' staff, even before Tomsula, was expected to be a deep cost cutting measure, that they just weren't going to pay much.  Consequently, you get Tomsula, who will be one of the lowest paid coaches in the league, and his coordinators?  Geep was a coordinator last in 2000.  Mangini was, at least, a head coach, in 2010, but was out of the league for a few years.   Both were told to look elsewhere initially, and so clearly both getting promotions?  They're not Plan A.  They were not in demand.  They were inexpensive. 

 

That's one thing - both can be quality coordinators I guess - but the incumbents were told to walk in part because of money, and they struck out hard on real candidates, again, reportedly because of money.

Would have loved to have had Geep back as a QB coach.  Not to be, I guess.

 

I'm neither a Logan fan nor a detractor, but the talk about him reminds me of how I hear people talk about Jon Gruden.

 

Being a commentator has a habit of elevating your rep in people's eyes.  In Gruden's case, we've had people clamoring for us to pay him anything he asks to coach here, apparently forgetting just how badly his last coaching stint ended.

 

Guess we'll see whether Logan is worth the hype or not.

      Derrick Brown appreciation thread.

      By TD alt · Posted

      Derrick Brown was one player I never called or even suggested was a bust . Dude was young and hadn't even hit his stride. It takes time to learn the position. The thing I appreciated about him is that he kept improving season after season. He got paid and keeps on going like the Energizer Bunny.

      Joe Person: Ickey is expected to be extended, Mays is someone we want to keep long term, TE, LB and OLB are our biggest needs heading into the offseason

      How many teams coddle their QB the way Bryce has been coddled? I have never seen any other team in the NFL EVER baby a QB the way that Bryce has been.  Bryce was named day 1 starter his first year. It was obvious he didnt deserve it. He wasnt ready as evidenced by the worst rookie year in NFL history.  So let's move to year 2. He's named starter again with no competition in TC and is benched 2 games later. We have the ghost of a backup in Dalton who is so bad he can only beat Vegas and let's remember, the only reason he lost his starting job was a car accident, not because Bryce actually beat him out in practice.  And year 3. We sign Dalton again, who already proved he couldn't be depended on to put an even remotely passable performance on the field, and bring back Jack Plummer, who was even worse than last year. It was obvious he was nothing more than a pretend body in an attempt to create an illusion of some type of attempt to find a backup.  Then we start again with garbage play again and Bryce gets benched with a phantom injury, and the ghost of the ghost of Dalton breaks his thumb on the first drive and craps the field all over again. If we had actually made an attempt to find a legitimate QB2, it's possible Bryce doesn't step on the field again. Bryce is not agood QB and if we had any other mediocre QB, our record would be the same or better.  Bryce is not entrenched. He's been placed, protected and sheltered from ever having to face a  real QB competition in TC. Richardson and Levis both were ass and both were benched and eventually replaced.  Do I expect Baker to face competition in camp? Sure. I expect Tampa to find the best QB2 they can at price that fits their cap and resources and system and get him up to speed. If he's better than Baker, and if he's better by a significant margin, that's best for the team. The ultimate goal is a Super Bowl. Bellichek was constantly getting QB2s with the GOAT as his starter. He knew the value and that was realized when Cassell led them to an 11-5 record as a backup.  You and I may think differently than the people that matter but I will say it again. If you're afraid to bring in a capable backup, especially after the debacle of last year. The starting role wasn't earned, it was given, and that's loser mentality.

      I would have done the same thing.  LSU is a much better job than Ole Miss.  Plus the enormous contract and every advantage a college team can offer in terms of recruiting and facilities and tradition etc
