Would you be pleased if we hired Byron Leftwich??

[hepcat]

He’s more qualified than Rhule was 

[Mr. Scot]

My biggest issue with Byron Leftwich is the same one I have with Ken Dorsey and Kellen Moore.

They're all very intelligent and skilled, but I think they need more experience before they're ready to take on a head coaching job.

I know everybody is looking for the next Sean McVay, but I feel like if you go that route you're probably more likely to find the next Joe Brady

I'd be fine with him.

I suppose it depends how often a coordinator calls plays, what role they have in the team, etc. It feels unfair to loop them all in with Brady... Especially when these guys we usually are talking about have multiple years of NFL experience

Bit of a conflict of interest. He is the OC for the Bucs or whatever but I think he's is ready for the big time. He's the next coach to be upnext in the hot offensive coordinator to HC list.

If he brings in Tom Moore, and it depends on the DC. Everywhere Tom Moore goes Lombardi’s follow. He is ancient though. I would be excited about the offense and worried about the defense. I wished we could get Tomlin personally.

I agree with this. It would be extremely important who they surround themselves with. The vet dream DC would be Vic Fangio. Then you can completely let go of the defense.

Byron was a tough, gutsy player who brought a lot to the huddle and the lockerroom. As a coach, he's  been even better.

I think his combination of working his way up the coaching ranks AND his playing time on the field makes him an outstanding candidate. 

If we were to snag him, I'd think we'd set ourselves up for long term success.

A young coach is always a crap shoot .  A proven coach with experience  has a better result . If we could bring in Shaun Payton would be the best option .   Anyone would be better than what we have .

My ignorant take is that although I like the dude, Brady makes it very hard to evaluate his coaching abilities. 

on the flip side, the fact he has worked with brady may mean he's learned some things that may help him be a better coach.

[Proudiddy]

I've liked and followed Leftwich since college, so yes, but to be completely honest with you, I would be happy if we hired back George Seifert as HC right now.

[Ornias]

I would take the Koolaid man at this point. Rhule does not have it. That is apparent to everyone except our owner.

Leftwich has only been coaching since 2016, Moore since only 2018. Dorsey has the longest tenure of the bunch, starting in 2023.

There are guys who have been ripe for a head coaching opportunity for longer than these guys have even been coaching.

I know it's not his fault, but older coaches have been pushed to the fringe because of how successful McVay has been.
