...in no way am I saying Tanny is a franchise...I'm saying coaching is everything...which is why we sucked so bad under fhule. Of course you have to have a qb that has skill but scheme, philosophy and leadership in coaching is most of it. How could they have 4 winning seasons in a row under Vrabel and 6 winning season in a row if not for coaching...something we'd kill for.. they have done it with Tanny and none other than Mariota.... just saying pretty respectable.

Yep.  Titans are good every year because their coaching is great.

No reason Panthers shouldn't have as much success if you are looking at the talent.  Because Titans ain't all that.

It the old school approach.  It still works if you can run the ball and have a good defense.  Get a decent game manager and you can win a lot of games if you stay healthy.

Yep. Run the ball, take safe passes, and play great defense.

No reason why we can't.  We have more offensive talent than the Titans do.  Although Henry is a different breed.

Having an actual O-line has definitely made that possible. Funny we're averaging 60 more yards a game post-CMC

its football...manage the opportunities... just like the direct snap to Henry and Tanny was walking to the sideline like things were amiss. That was just smart and outta the box....

It is. It comes from experience in the nfl and working under a great teacher.  It's also getting your team to believe in what you are doing and each other.  Not every great coordinator can pull all of that together and lead a group of men to win every year. Especially since half the team is new players every year.

We became way too dependent on CMC as the focal point of our offense. Same thing we did with Cam. As much as I hated to lose him, I’m happy he was traded before we ruined him permanently as we did Cam. It was a win-win for both sides.

Billicheat and Reed are the stalwarts ...but i'm curious to see how Pederson does or if he was a one hit wonder...that bullfrog down in dallas rode favre and rogers to glory... Carroll is doing some good things...can't wait to see who we select as a new coach... tipper went against his analytics with fhule but i have no faith in his shotgun approach to setting the nfl on fire with his BS decisions ...

    • Watched the recent Mic'd up which had the Bucs game. This angle makes that fumble look so much worse, pretty sure it was inbetween Bryce's hands.   bbb.mp4
    • Here is what you did not mention (and I have not read the thread--but will--it is a needed) and that is the MAFF.  He is in a contract year (2026-5th year) and we will not know (in all likelihood) how the knee is healing by the time we have to decide on a mega deal.   If you consider the time it takes to fully heal is 12 months if all goes well, the injury is known to shorten careers.  Of course, a man of 330 lbs who needs agility to perform at a high level makes the injury a bit more serious than it was for Jimmy Graham, for example, who recovered in a remarkable 9 months.  Having said all that, I think he should be moved inside to guard.   While many NFL linemen can return to play after patellar tendon surgery, studies show a significant failure rate and reduced performance, with return-to-play (RTP) rates often cited around 50-56%, meaning roughly 44-50% don't make it back, and even those who do often see reduced careers and statistics, highlighting it as a devastating injury for linemen." I think you have to go after an elite OT, and I think it should be a first rounder because you don't sign elite LTs in free agency.  Ickey is already going to get paid $18m or so in 2026.    However, the money you save by not locking him down long term could go to a free agent edge or ILB.  It is very complicated if you start factoring in contracts, risks, cap, and the odds of recovery.    
    • Yes, we played the 2nd most cover 3 in the NFL behind the Raiders.   The flats and seams are the areas you want to attack it so its soft spots are areas qbs can hit quickly which can definitely hurt the pass rush.
