Allbright: Eagles OC Shane Steichen is the hottest HC candidate out there

Based on what? What makes people think he can be a head coach? Wilks has shown he has what it takes to be and do what a head coach should be, and do. If we hire someone who is an OC similar to this guy, we end up with a highly effective leader of men at head coach and a still good offensive coordinator.

Don't care for this guy who could be a flash in the pan for all anyone knows. You don't see anyone jumping for the Ravens offensive coordinators for what they do with Lamar Jackson.

Here is a fact, without a running QB, the Eagles would be sitting at .500 with a mediocre offense and no one would know this guy exists. 

Maybe we should hire Jalen Hurts as Head Coach since he is what makes that go.

If you want to go OC's, give me Kellen Moore or Ken Dorsey. Ken has been raised by McDermmot and Rivera and has been a part of some major program building projects that have been massively successful.

Wilks has won 5 games as a professional head coach

Are we thinking about the same Wilks that went 3-13 in Arizona?

Wilks hasn't won a game that Rhule wouldn't have won. Just because he isn't Rhule doesn't mean he has the quality to succeed.

over the last 5 years it appears to be in the 6-12 range. 

Herbert

Allen

Mahomes

Watson

 

Thats true, another deal to add- The one spot where team reach on is QB. 

 

Plus its where they land, its just important. Hahomes landed with a playoff ready team with the best QB whisper in NFL history.

Herbert- SD/LA have been a low-key playoff team for some time. If you look over the roster its filled with talent everywhere.

Allen- Bills got a perfect storm of GM&HC along with already having a good D waiting. Billy saw the need for a WR and traded for cold weatgher stud Diggs(but oooooooo my god if he kept the pick and took thee gawd JJ)

Watson- poor team, but watson puts up elite numbers. but got other issues. 

 

Except for Watson, all those landed with teams that understand the current NFL.

Getting the HC and GM right is step one. Step two is those two have to get the qb selection right. That's why I say it's too early to drool over any of these qb's in the draft. We haven't started step one yet.

You got it figured out. Forgive those draft nuts, panthers forced them to start too early. Ive been fighting the urge and cheated some myself...

I'm keeping tabs on the qbs everyone is wild about. So far I must say I'm a bit surprised by how the more I watch the less impressed I am.  I don't watch enough college football to scout the lesser knowns so I leave that to the professionals.

    • Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.
    • Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly. 
    • Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
