A lot of discussion on OC candidates, but this is myopic.  The most important coaching hire(s) this off-season is OL coach and staff. It really doesn’t matter what offense your OC wants to run, if your OL coaching staff can’t scheme and effectively develop players for that scheme, your offense is toast.  Fix the o-line, fix the offense.  

 And thank you for listening to my Ted Talk.

I'm not truly certain it matters.  Our line coach was definitely bad.  Unfortunately, so was a lot of our talent.

I hope we can do better this year at both, but I have my doubts.  If you're a good line coach, do you really want to be here on a one year contract?  Likewise coordinator?  I just don't think Rhule can come back from where he is now.  Regardless of whether you think he can one day be an NFL coach, I don't think that THIS situation is recoverable.

To me, that makes replacing staff much, much more difficult.

I hate to tell y'all, but simply fixing the OL is not going to fix our current mess. We have the worst QB situation and worst coaching situation in the league. An OL ain't fixing that.

yea...ur right... just keep pushing the car back up the hill..

OC coming in predicates the offensive scheme which predicates the blocking scheme which predicates the best suited positional coaches. If we’re doing this thing again of hiring people and just telling them to work together (IE Rhule, Brady & Fit) it will fail. Get an OC that brings a staff with a complete offense in mind.

Pittsburgh might actually be worse with Mason Rudolph and Dwayne Haskins, but it’s basically king of poo mountain at this point.  Unfortunately for us, they have the management ability to get a quality QB soon while we flounder around

We have Sam for $18.5 million plus lost our 2nd rounder which is going to be like a late first. I’ll take Mason and his contract over that. Also I bet the Steelers just draft one (they have been looking at Howell).  You are spot on with the poop mountain reference…

Fair, when you account for everything we’re definitely worse off.  As players they all suck.  Sad times.  I’m thinking they’ll draft one too, it’s Colbert’s last draft as GM so he’s gonna want to set up some form of QB successor.

 

either way, Rhule will make more poor choices and we’ll be in an even deeper hole next season.  Nothing will change until he’s gone.  I wonder who he’ll slap his first franchise tag on?  PJ?  John Miller?  Ugh…

      Yeah, Bryce has to put that a little deeper. But XL can't allow the pick there. Gotta become the DB when you're undercut like that.

      Micah officially requests a trade

      By TD alt · Posted

      You see, I just don't subscribe to a cookie cutter type of philosophy when it comes to trades or team building. Every situation is different. Many may disagree, but I think that FOs that can't draft impact-players beyond the first round aren't really viable.  Just for argument's sake, because we all know this hypothetical trade is as realistic as the moon being made of cheese, Micah is a young dawg really just beginning his prime and is arguably the most valuable pass rusher in the league. He could realistically play at a high level for at least the next five to seven years. Parsons' current trajectory is Canton. That being said, he's not some old merc that fits the mold of "one piece away," he's a core piece to any defense for the better part of the next 10 years. Pass rushers of his caliber and age don't generally become available, so, sure, he'd help an elite team, but he's also a fit for a younger team that's building. I know that you don't agree, but it's all good. I respect your rationale.

      Micah officially requests a trade

      By pantherclaw · Posted

      Here's my not important take on this subject.  Who wouldn't want a pass rusher of his consistency?  I would absolutely love to have him on this defense.   Would I give up Brown in a trade for him.  Nope, I would never do that.  Interior linemen are way to important to be settling for whatever you can get at the position.   Would I trade 2 firsts,  plus fork out a big contract for him?   Without knowing if Young is for sure going to be our long term, franchise guy,  there is no way I'd be okay with letting go 2 firsts. As for the contract that he'd demand, I just dont get caught up with NFL contracts.  They have been out of control for decades.  So I really dont get upset over big contracts. It's just a fact of life in the NFL.  You HAVE to pay for talent.
