If Rhule gets fired, who are your favorite coaching candidates for next year?

I have a list of coaches I have my fingers crossed should it happen. Ranked in order of who I would want most.

Doug Pederson (Unemployed) (53)
Lovie Smith (DC Texans) (63)
Kellen Moore (OC Cowboys) (33)
Josh McDaniels (OC Patriots) (45)
Jerod Mayo (LB Coach Patriots) (35)
Mike LaFleur (OC Jets) (34)



No college coaches please, I want either a proven team guy (Smith, Pederson, Mayo) or an offensive wizard (Moore, Pederson, McDaniels, LaFleur). I do not care about age at this point.

McDaniels was my 2nd favorite last time.  The popular belief is he's going to ride out his OC gig in NE until Bill retires.  The only unknown is, how long is Bill planning on coaching?  If Bill plans on coaching another 5-10 years, I doubt McDaniels waits around that long.

Matt Eberflus. Top defensive coach on ascending team with a winning track record.  Has also experience transition between schemes.  Knows how to use the hybrid types.  

Prefer defensive oriented coaches with 10+ years NFL experience.  And wouldn't be a retread.

Honestly, if I'm getting what I want, I'd target Eberflus as HC w/ Pederson as the AHC/OC.

I don't know about any of them specifically, but I know the profile for me is a young, aggressive, forward-thinking, offensive minded HC.  

I've been saying it the last two hires - please no more conservative, defensive-minded coaches.  Daboll is probably my favorite.  Lafleur is intriguing.

Pederson is my vote: he has played in the NFL, coached in the NFL, and won in the NFL which includes a SuperBowl. After what we have seen the past 2-seasons, I want to see proven NFL experience. 

Pederson would actually make a great OC candidate if Rhule were to stay in place.

Not really sure Rhule would give him a look though.

Sign me up for an Eberflus HC with Pederson at OC. They’d get this mess cleaned up right away.

    • Ha-ha, I bet that went through everyone's mind.  Admittedly I don't read all the comments in a thread before I make a post. Great minds think alike!
    • Cam was hitting his stride as a QB in 2017/2018.     This is why I think stats like completion percentage are overrated. As long as a QB is clutch and makes the throws to win the game the rest doesn’t really matter. What good is a check down stat padder if they’re a choker.  Until Norv Turner (and briefly Chud) got here we put Cam in high pressure throwing situations all the time. We also ran the ball on first down more than most teams in the NFL in the Ron era. Coupled with shitty WRs, all that is expressed in his stats. I also assume Cam took the ball in his hands on many occasions rather than trust Funchess to catch the ball.    It was also never Cams job to play the game like someone else. His presence on the field dictated the game in a way that is rarely seen.  He showed he could play the dink and dunk game just before TJ Watt. That didn’t suddenly make him better than his earlier seasons. He just got put in a legit under center  passing game again for first time since his rookie year with Chud.    Ron took the quickest path to success and abused the RPO because his ass was about to get fired.    Cam never got the credit for being the cerebral player that he was. I just think when you are legitimately a human Superman, sometimes the best play is having the ball in your hands. He was a better passer than Delhomme was. 
    • I don't think Canales has any problem benching Bryce or moving on if Bryce doesn't come out playing like the end of last year.  It's year 3 no more excuses for Bryce
