As does the Jets OC Mike LaFluer, but he doesn't seem to be generating much buzz right now.

Probably a year early. But it doesn't hurt to have a brother pumping out 13 win seasons. 

He's near the top of my list.

The guy everyone laughed at 2 years ago is coaching one of the best teams in the nfl in Philadelphia.

 

Mister was the leader of that crusade 

What "crusade" was there against Sirianni?

He had some kinda goofy moments early on (so did Campbell) but he's doing well now.

We should probably review the data on offensive-minded coaches since McVay was hired and kicked off this obsession.

2018

1. Pat Shurmur

2. Frank Reich

3. Matt Nagy

2019

1. Kliff Kingsbury

2. Freddie Kitchens

3. Matt LaFleur

4. Adam Gase

5. Zac Taylor

2020

Kevin Stefanski

2021

1. Nick Sirianni

2. Arthur Smith

2022

1. Brian Daboll

2. Kevin O'Connell

3. Mike McDaniel

4. Nathaniel Hackett

5. Josh McDaniels

I didn't include coaches with an offensive background that had solidified themselves as head coaches more recently since that doesn't seem to be exactly the theme (e.g. Jon Gruden, Bruce Arians, Doug Pedersen) although you could argue for that. Or Dan Campbell since he was a tight ends coach which is a bit different than the above.

What are the trends? 

1. Be wary of coaches who may have ridden the coattails of elite QBs (Hackett, Gase, +/- McDaniels) unless they were clearly involved in the growth of said QB (Daboll)

Possible 2023 examples: Leftwich, Dorsey, Bienemy

2. Be wary of coaches who served under a historically good head coach that has their fingerprints on the whole team (McDaniels, Nagy)

3. Probably doesn't need to be said after the traumatic experience of Rhule, but just to really emphasize it, be wary of college coaches (Kingsbury, Rhule, Urban Meyer).

Other than that, it's a mixed bag. Even coaches like Zac Taylor have looked pretty bad outside of his super bowl run; he's probably a Rivera level guy who isn't very good but can do enough not to completely impede elite play from his qb. Daboll looks the best on this list but it's so early only 6 games in. And he molded Josh Allen from a possible bust to the MVP frontrunner and possible hall of famer. How many candidates with that resume are you going to get?

With that in mind, Steichen seems like the clear cut top choice. He oversaw the development of Herbert and Hurts.

Then perhaps Kellen Moore depending on how the Cowboys play out the year, although they are really riding on the strength of their defense. Maybe Ben Johnson if the Lions keep up pace and the Pats game isn't the start of their descent back to Earth although that's a quick ascent from coordinator to coach. Guess it's good that we have the earliest jump start on the hiring

Can't help but think we are going to try Harbaugh again.

Guys like Harbaugh and Payton are gonna want a higher level of control than it sounds like Tepper is willing to offer this time.

I get the feeling the days of full control head coaches in Carolina are over.

      T-Mac Jerseys?

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      lol well that kinda ended up working out in the end, even though I still don't have my jersey yet. Was supposed to ship by tomorrow this time, but just got another email saying it was delayed another 3 weeks and because it's been delayed so long, I had to tell them to keep the order or cancel it, but gave me a 25% off my next order as an apology. Well, my original fear came true and they are now selling the FUSE version (but still not the Blue unfortunately) before the one I ordered was ever shipped. But that's awesome, because I was able to use that coupon to order the FUSE instead and then cancelled the original order.  So I got the jersey I wanted for only $6.30 more than the crappier version costs, and it also says it will be shipped immediately and get here early next week, or 2 weeks before the other was now supposed to be shipped out.

      I've watched this and think we are well underway.  Believe it or not, Bryce is a big part of this.  The way he bounced back with such grace.  And we've got a lot of young players who want to make their mark, Dave is giving them an opportunity.  I loved our draft.  I like the number of guys we brought in, and they will help build the culture we want under Dave.  We're getting closer, and I think we'll see more wins this year than most of the board. The right culture breeds winning, and winning builds the right culture.  Imho, it's coming.

      As others have said it's both. One creates the other. But it also takes time sometimes years. And there have been teams lately with new car smell coaching staffs that looked like they were putting it together quickly but things came crashing back down to Earth. Sustainability is the key. For that to happen the meddling of our owners has to stop and they cannot be tempted to return to their ways over any bump in the road either.
