Rivera had grown tired of Shula and had been for quite some time but couldn't do much about it until Gettleman was gone. The fact that Gettleman was so eager to hire him in  New York leads me to believe there must be something to those rumors.

GM's don't typically hire coordinators, that's the HC's job.

DG has said in the past he doesn't want to get in the middle of that.

I'm not sure that you are grasping the amount of knowledge a player would have on a coaching staff and players after 4 years.

Middle Linebacker is the quarterback of the defense, particularly the Panthers defense. Agree or disagree? 

I'm not sure that you are grasping just how smart Sean Payton and Co. are.

Did we carry over an existing defensive coordinator or did we change from their time here?

Again, were it the Raiders before an opening day...sure, there is a lot of info that can be gleaned, a division rival with a great HC...nah, not that much, IMO.

But we can agree to disagree, surprising as that sounds, it still does actually happen in 2018.

What difference does it make who the team is? I'm fairly certain there are post games notes showing Klein was calling out almost all of our plays in the first game.

If it helps a non-division opponent, it's going to help a division opponent.

      The Cavalry is Coming

      By Seltzer · Posted

      I'm super excited about the guys we're getting back, and fortunately this year, outside of Robert Hunt, we haven't had any season-threatening injuries. Rico has earned the start, but I am excited to have both available.  The team is finally turning into the run-first team Canales said he wanted to be. As for JT Sanders, I think he has lost the most be being out. He is probably our best receiving TE, but with the emergence of Mitchell Evans & with him and Tommy Tremble both absolutely balling in run blocking, it will be hard to fix something that isn't broken. I'm hoping Turk Wharton can help with our pass rush. We really havent gotten to see him much due to injuries, but we desperately need anyone to provide some pass rush juice, which is what he was brought to do. I'm the most excited about Jalen Coker returning. Theilen may have been the most clutch last year, but I've watched a lot of film, and Coker was the most consistent WR we had when he was out there last year.  I think he can be an ideal #2 to Tmac. While Coker doesn't have the raw athleticism XL does, his route running, savvy, and overall football IQ simply make him better.  I think with the fact Coker can play both outside and in the slot will give our pass game more versatility.  We have been running a lot of 2 TE sets, and I think Tmac & Coker should be the primary WRs for 12 personnel. The other WRs (XL, Tremayne, Renfrow, & Horn) all have roles, but I dont think any of them can fully replace what Coker can do. I do think Renfrow will be inactive this week if everyone is healthy bc of how valuable Tremayne is for ST and as a run blocker. So happy that we are playing meaningful football heading into November. We are still almost certainly a year away, but we are absolutely moving in the right direction

      Better than a fragile starter, though
