Snow wasn't anything special.

Neither is Wilks but that guy is a straight up weird one. His taste in coaches and quarterbacks is baaaad. He loved Rhule loves Sam Darnold hated Bridgewater hates Cam Newton. If it were up to him we would still be watching Matt Rhule sink this franchise.

idgaf if they're an OC, DC, or run the ST. Hire a leader that wants to do more than approve the team's social media posts. Get an actual student of the game with a passion for leading in here.

Though at this point, I'd be grateful for a coach that makes adjustments and understands clock management simply because I haven't seen that in a looong time here. 😬

I think a perspective some may be missing in this whole offense vs defense coach thing is age. I think its possible that a young DS also understands the new NFL and what it takes to win in it. It would be hard to imagine Ryan bringing in some dinosaur NFL offensive coordinator, especially taking a look at who he has been exposed to on that side of the ball. 

It is true a good OC will probably get HC consideration and we could lose out that way....but we have all also seen that personally with the DC too. Going from McDermott to Wilks was a step back and then from Wilks to Eric Washington ( and in a round about way Holcomb ) were big drops.

Why?

Why do some owners have this OBSESSION with hiring DEFENSIVE Coordinators as Head Coaches?

 

I just can't understand it.

Because eventually they know that this who "HIRE A OFFENSIVE GURU" trend will die and defenses will end up figuring out these offenses.

What Trend?

All I've seen are DC's hired as Head Coaches.

And these DC's have zero head Coaching experience, to boot.

 

And most of them wash out. 

Why can't we have one who was an Offensive Coordinator at one point? 

Someone who knows as much about offense as DC's know about Defense?

Ummm I am talking league wide... McVay, Shanahan, McDaniels, Zac Taylor, Matt LaFluer, etc .. I think many teams will figure out these offenses and eventually teams will go back to hiring defensive minded coaches to counter these high offensive plays.

Personally, I think the whole "we need an offensive guy" thing is overplayed and not every defensive coach will be "conservative" .  

Honestly though, it really don't matter who is coaching this team, so as long as they get them on right track and this team becomes a playoff caliber team again

That's fair.

I just don't want this team to suck....again.

      2026 NFL Combine Thread: 2.26.26 - 3.1.26

      I think the first 3 picks will be defensive players this time. At least that's how the draft is falling this year. I would not be shocked at all if our 1st pick is the number one safety in the draft. It appears he will be right there for the taking.

      Man oh man. That 8-9 record without a playoff berth puts at 13 if I recall, ahead of both Atlanta and TB with their 8-9 records, due to our weaker SOS.   We might have been in range to deal for that guy. I hope he doesn’t last to 8. And I hope some AFC team picks him.

      Cool. I am not wanting to debate or argue it. It is mostly my preferences. But a couple of things:  I just don’t think he sees the middle of the field well. But besides that I would rather spend a 1st round pick at different offensive positions if we went offense, otherwise we have neglected defense something fierce the last few years. Last 1st rounder was Horn. That’s like 5 years ago now.   Investments… gee the last 4 drafts we have used a 2, a 2, a low 1st and a top ten pick on WR. Bryce has been here three years, three of those picks were specifically for him.  And assets, I don’t think you are counting the haul we gave for the QB position. That counts and it was huge.   Add that up and add the Burns cap space we freed up when we traded him. We bought two guards and used the savings on them. Not on the defense.  I mean, that is a lot of investment in the offense when you put all that in a sack and weigh it.    peace. Appreciate your post.
