New HC, OC and DC

I think Wilks has an uphill climb that I don't believe he'll succeed and retain the positon as HC.  I like him and think he'll do a good job holding the team together, but I think Tepper will want Fitterer to find a good offensive minded HC. This is exactly what I think we'll do.

We can argue all day on which current OC is the best candidate.  The winning candidate, IMO, needs to not only have a good scheme and be creative but also be able to make in-game adjustments and halftime adjustments.  I truly cannot think of one OC we've had since Dan Henning that was decent at in-game adjustments.  I know many of you hated Henning or have a bad opinion of him. However, after the Cheatriots knew our entire offensive plan in SB38, he made the adjustment and put us back in the game.  So, I'll always respect DH as a great offensive mind (for his Era) and what he did to save face for us in SB38. 

Obviously, the new HC should have an OC that is his protege. So, whoever we bring in as the head coach we'll have to be happy with his OC.  I would also want our HC to call the plays since we brought him here because of his offensive skills.  

Defensive Coordinator should be a young talented DC like Demeco Ryans or maybe someone from the McDermott tree.  I know McDermott and Rivera come from the same tree, but McDermott has evolved into a good HC and his defense is elite.

Thoughts?

Yeah Wilks is getting experience and that's what he needs. Still he's a one legged man in a ass kicking contest. He will be given a interview and probably get others but we need a offensive HC. Or at least a Defensive HC that can bring in a bright mind at OC. Either way that's not Wilks.

This has been mentioned several times but the only bad thing about a DC minded head coach is that his OC, if he does well, will be snagged in a year or two and we have to start over with a new OC.

I'm ready, as most of us are, for an Offensive-Minded Head Coach.

 Just want the right people to be picking the right people.

Owner>consultant>GM>HC>OC/DC

That is what we need.

What we’ve had:

Owner>rehired/fired GM>HC>OC/DC>OCx2>HC>PuppetGM>Owner>HCx2>fired HCs puppetGM/owner>new HC?

I mean really what in the fug is this poo? 

Is Tepper even aware enough to realize this alone makes him a laughing stock joke in the NFL?

I feel the same but I just wanted to be transparent. The truth is whoever is HC I hope will have a high degree of skill in at least one side. Because finding a great DC is just as hard as finding a great OC.

OC and DC depend heavily on who the head coach is.

This 💯 I’d prefer we start with new blood -offensive minded HC, young but slightly experience OC and slightly experienced or vet DC (but not too long in the tooth). Wilks does well as a DB coach and pass D coordinator but I want coaches with a fresh approach and real ability to put players in the best position to succeed. JMO

    • I can only imagine the **** eating grins on the committee right now. "Oh, Bama didn't deserve it? Oh, Miami didn't deserve it? Suck it, haters!" lol
    • To say that, is gaslighting, because it isn’t true. I mean, maybe one or two people do that but it isn’t the predominant behavior. Even Frank has given him credit. I think particularly the Rams game. A couple of glowing posts.   I know I have. Gotta be honest about it because if you aren’t it undermines what else you say.  But the degree of how far I go with credit, in terms of it being a projection of future performance? Not very far. Acknowledge it, but require more of it. There is a lot of bad play to offset.    I tried to remain passive while the last 9 games (post ankle injury) played out. It is just really hard when the lows won’t go away. I failed. As high as a couple of those highs were, there isn’t enough.    I know it is premature to just say I want to move on, made my decision after 6 of those games ended up pretty much really good or not good enough, but I have had enough of being patient and letting him show the reality either way.  So in my view, he Could still validate himself to a decent degree if he smokes the last three starts. But also in my view I don’t expect to see it. Maybe one more high quality start, would be my expectation. So yes he could still somehow justify having the job next year. If that happened I still wouldn’t have much faith given the last three years and all that has transpired. Again, there is a lot of bad play to offset. 
    • To start with, you wouldn’t want to count up that value chart. You would see quickly where that is headed. But you basically did a quantity comparison, while ignoring quality.  I am looking at 2023 as the start, because it became all about Bryce.  2023 you have 4 picks plus DJ Moore for offense vs 2 (80 and 145) for defense.  2024 you got the 1st overall, the 32, the 46 and the 101 for offense vs 72, 157, 200 and 240 for defense. Leave the FA IOL out of it. Which was a crazy big  investment. But it wasn’t draft.  Anyway, that is basically 4 top 100 picks for offense and 4 picks for defense in 2024. Except they were 2 first rounders, the second rounder, and the 4th was really high at 101. Vs 72 and day three stuff. Please….  Second quoted/bolded… See you think we hate Bryce. That isn’t it at all. It is nice easy way to characterize us and discredit our talking points though.   Me, I do mostly hate watching him play. But I don’t hate the person. I hate the hell out of the stanning.  It started with the very first question I asked about his footwork, arm strength, and size. Height being the principle objection. I never even got to the durability factor. There was plenty without factoring that in.  But there was rabid opposition to even asking the question of what a couple of small fractions of a second extra closing time would do for the defenders.  What the extra time it takes to flip the hips would do vs a pass rush or on the other end after the ball is in the air. Split second more for recognition where it is going for the DBs.  The tippy toe backpedal.  That poo was a mess and it has always been mess but no Bryce fan wanted to hear it. “Go get another team to root for”. “It worked in the SEC it will be fine in the NFL you don’t know football you are just a hater”.  It got worse when the real games started. It has never stopped. It is nice that many people have left that train so there is less abuse but it hasn’t stopped.  So whatever…
