I’m definitely aboard the Demeco Ryans for HC bandwagon

There’s a reason if you’re an old coach that you haven’t gotten a head coaching gig yet and it’s probably because you aren’t good enough 

Not really, but I get there's a bias toward younger guys these days because everyone wants to find the next McVay. Unfortunately, you're just as likely to find the next Joe Brady.

Ryans only has about five years of coaching experience. Dorsey, Johnson, Callahan and LaFleur, while they're all relatively young, all have at least ten.

Can you name a coach if advanced age who was hired as a head coach for the first late in his career who won a superbowl? I really can’t think of any.

I like Ryans because we already have talent on that side of the ball and our offense is a mess. I'm not saying Dorsey'll burn out here/in the nf but we don't have an Allen/Diggs combo or anything close to it. Moore could maybe be our Davis but even then, there's far more room for poo to go wrong. 

Aren't there any promising OCs or he could poach off of the 49ers talented offensive staff or smth?

Pretty sure the oldest recent hire was Frank Reich, who looked pretty good before the Colts traded for Wentz, then Ryan.

Id be extremely careful throwing this out there. Brady with some experience up in Buffalo could be a promising candidate for an OC job in the future. 
 

Id imagine anyone with half a brain in the nfl circles are gonna look at what a train wreck Rhule is and not completely hold it against him.

He may be, but he wasn't ready to be an OC when we hired him.

A lot of this year's candidates (Ryan's included) are first year coordinators. I'm not a fan of going that route.

That’s not a ringing endorsement to hire an old coach. Young guys want to prove themselves for better or worse. Old guys don’t have that same motivation. It’s why I think QBs like Matt Ryan and Russell Wilson are playing like garbage. They have fat ass contracts and previous success to hang their hats on. No motivation to win. I think a coach like Ryans who learned under Kyle Shanahan (a coach with a burgeoning coaching tree) would be a great idea. That means the Panthers definitely won’t do it.

I want a guy who's got at least ten years experience, preferably with more than one as a coordinator.

The first part isn't that hard to find right now, but the second is.

I'm kinda on the Dan Quinn bandwagon at the moment.

That Dallas defense is legit and his players love him, and we badly need someone with legit NFL HC experience next, this team needs someone like that.

Bring Quinn in with the mandate that he has to find a young, innovative OC and turn the offense completely over to them, none of this 3 yards and a cloud of dust crap that many defensive minded HC's like to run.

      Can we get to 9-8?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.

      Eight of Bryce Young's nine wins have come off game-winning drives

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand.

      Trade Chuba?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
