Coaching interview updates

[MHS831]

This is an interesting discussion--how much of his success was of his own doing?  That is the question--nobody really knows.

Katrina did more to win that SB than Brees or Payton...

I know we're supposed to hate all things New Orleans, but I recall that on-side kick to open the second half flipping the game. That was a coaching chess move.

Don’t give the Saints poo I’d rather keep Wilks than give that franchise a crumb

He stole that idea from Bill Cowher

I mean, what even is the percentage of coaches that last more than 5 years in one spot? This poo is fuging hard. Of course we aren’t in a great spot right now, that’s why we are hiring a coach in the first place. But acting like this is a uniquely bad situation I just don’t get. Yes we don’t have a QB but that is very normal with these openings. We’re in a bad division, with plenty of draft choices, and in a decent spot in regards to the cap.

In the SB era:

48% of HCs last 5 or more years in one spot.

41% of HCs get at least 2 opportunities.

56% of HCs get their team to the playoffs.

42% of HCs win a playoff game.

13% of HCs win a SB.

Finding a HC is more important than finding a QB, and it's easier to find a good HC who can get you to the playoffs than it is to find a good franchise QB who can win in the playoffs. A good HC can have success with a broader range of QBs. A good clutch QB must have a good HC to make it to the playoffs.

Not even close. The Giants barely squeaked into the playoffs

Sometimes a coach & QB just click and it's impossible to duplicate it for either side.  

Curious to who Peyton thinks could be his next partner in the current QB landscape.  It's pretty icky.  For some reason, could see him having an interest in Derek Carr though.  He seems like a guy that could really do well in his system.

Here's a wild scenario:

HOU gets Payton, HOU trades (Using Pick 12) and gets their 2nd Carr, they're able to use Pick 2 on Anderson or Carter.  

1-Bears-Anderson

2-HOU-Carter

We suddenly have a much better chance at a top QB...

 

 

 

There is a literal 0% chance that the Texans pass on a QB at 2 because they decided to sign Carr, just won't happen, absolutely not even a remote chance of it happening.

No franchise is passing on drafting a top QB prospect to sign 32 year old Derek Carr

Just lolz

With Daniel Jones at QB and third string receivers starting.  The evidence is there that he’s got potential as a play caller. Whether you choose to see it or not is your own issue.
