Jones: Tepper now looking for "a young offensive mind"

I'm not familiar enough with the names, but here's a couple of qualities I think we need to look at in the next coach:

1. QB development - I want a coach who has experience molding young QBs in to + starters.

2. Offensive Acumen - That goes without saying, we need a coach who brings an Xs and Os advantage to our team.

3. Adaptability - I'd love to find a coach who is much more open to being offensively flexible with their system and who is able to make adjustments at half time.  That seems to be a really big ask.

There's still a lot of season to go, so we'll see what happens the rest of the way to a lot of these current names.

Steichen fits all 3.

Jones reports here that Tepper has "looked at the landscape of the league" in considering what to do going forward.

I'd call that good news.

I'm not comfortable with Tepper involved with anything.  The next thing I want to hear is that Tepper is seeking out advice from Kevin Colbert to evaluate his team. Then we can discuss which direction this team needs to go.

I've seen doctors who couldn't balance checkbooks, teachers who can't figure out their voicemail and engineers who are baffled by simple cooking recipes.

Being really good at one particular thing (like making money) doesn't guarantee you're good at everything.

And a quick look at the NFL, including the Panthers, would tell you pretty clearly it sure as hell doesn't guarantee you know anything about football.

It also doesn't mean an offensive guru will be a great head coach.

    • There is so much wrong with this post it's scary. First, as it's been explained to you, the Bills call was 100% correct, he never actually had control of the ball outside of literally less than a half second of time, you're stuck on super slow mo and still frames as your proof.   And second, the refs get almost zero replay assistance on the types of calls that make people say they are terrible at their jobs.  Replay assistance is for things like catches, in/out of bounds, fumbles, and ball placement.  Fans really don't care much about those things and if refs are right or wrong, because of the replay assistance (only comes into factor when it's too close to call so the original call stands) They don't get any assistance on the rest of the penalties that are always what fans get upset about and why people say refs are terrible.  Namely, things like holding and PI, both called and missed, which they get absolutely zero replay assistance for. It's those things I'm talking about where it's really tough for 7 refs to catch everything all the time.  They can only watch so many things at once, and that's if they even have a line of sight on the penalty, so many times the ref is watching the play but the player's bodies are between the ref and the penalty, particularly PI.
    • Slowik was who I wanted as our HC when we hired Canales.  He clearly had an idea of how to maximize Strouds talent. sophmore slumps happen, but he fell off a cliff this year and I believe it can be due to getting rid of him.
    • Trey has plenty of tape standing up surprisingly. Guys like him have the technique and IQ to play the position for awhile. Cincy definitely  did him wrong and I'd gladly accept  him.  He would allow us to continue developing  Princely etc too.  Take an MLB or olineman with 19 or trade back and add more picks.  I'd assume free agent rushers would welcome the fact we have good coverage.
