Falcons website talks up Joe Brady, Terry Fontenot

[Mr. Scot]

Fontenot is getting a second interview in Denver today. Falcons might need to move quickly if they want him.

Also saw where Robert Saleh is getting a second interview with the Jets.

Personally wouldn’t care if he goes our offense got worse as year went on and redzone pct was garbage. Not to mention he help bring Terdy Bowlswater!

As a guy who has been 100% about Brady since last year, tbh, I saw a lot of issues with his first year as an OC.  That doesn't mean he isn't a bright up-and-comer still, but there were a lot of holes in his game.  Although I don't want to lose him, I also wouldn't be worried about playing his team twice a year.

Yeah, I agree. I was perfectly happy to see him grow here and hoped to get a good 3 years out of him. He could be great but I wouldn't be surprised to see him regret if he becomes a HC so soon.

I still find it hard to believe anyone hires Joe Brady. I figured the falcons interviewed him just to get to know him and his philosophies better as an opponent. 

[Mr. Scot]

Analysts were saying last year that anybody who'd ever so much as shook hands with Sean McVay was a potential candidate for a head coaching job.

I guess being perceived as similar to McVay works too.

[Moo Daeng]

Yet McVay had 9 years of NFL coaching experience.

FYI: If you saw the Brian Schottenheimer news and you're wondering, the answer is yes. He runs a similar system to what Joe Brady does.

Pray it doesn’t come to that. Hard pass.

My biggest question mark here is why would you select Brady over Eric? Body of work and resume of Eric is far superior. Literally only thing that could explain that to me is blatant racism.

I wanted Eric over Rhule btw.

I think hiring him for what would be a rebuild is very premature at this point in his career. He has shown nothing that he is ready for that. I’m honestly a bit puzzled by all the attention other than owners overreaching trying to get the next McVay

If he's hired in Atlanta it's gonna be Terry Fontenot doing the rebuild. Brady won't have the kind of power Rhule does. Mind you, I don't think he's ready either but the McVay effect and all...

As for Bieniemy, I think what torpedoed him here was his strong desire to work with Newton. This offseason I think pretty much every team has interviewed him (except the Texans who are now requesting to) but only one of them can actually hire him.

I have seen some chatter that his interviews so far haven't gone particularly well, but I don't know how seriously to take that.

[Jorgie]

I don’t understand

Joe Brady is a play caller why does everyone assume he’s a good head coach?

Schottenheimer is a Coryell guy so if they are similar then Brady is similar to the Turners and what we were doing since 2011. So the reality is they aren't similar.

With Wilson, the Seahawks have always run a WCO style, though Schottenheimer was said to have Incorporated some Coryell principles.
