New Coach Thread 2: Electric Boogaloo

Wasn't it literally the equivalent of a photo-finish with the last second call to Tepper to see if he'd match Cleveland's offer? It's understandable that it was missed. Everyone was shocked at Cleveland--no one called that one.

We were actually eliminated first In the final four (don't remember if it was before or after Cleveland was brought back in).

The call to Tepper did happen though.

Person suggested Tepper needed to be sure he wasn't bidding against himself. If Albright is correct, sounds like that might be a caution for Denver now.

The problem for Tepper I think is not the draft picks but the 110m contract over 5 years. If he gets past that, I wouldn't be surprised that he's highly interested and Payton moves to round two

Heck, if there are some young proven coaches who will not require $20m and 2 first rounders, I say go for it.  Look at the following:  Shanahan, Sirianni, McVay, Z. Taylor, Saleh--impressive.  All 43 or younger.  Heck, lifelong coordinators like Daboll, McDermott, and Campbell (all in their late 40s) are impressive so far.

I would say that the NFL has changed more in the past 10 years than any other decade in its history--maybe an older coach is not the best answer.

Actually, most of the speculation suggests the problem is the amount of power Payton wants.

Yea I don't think Watson wanted to go to Cleveland and when he got what he was looking for his agent called Carolina (probably the other teams as well) and went well.... 😂😂😂😂

If he wanted the power everyone thinks he wants,  he wouldn't be flying to Arizona and interviewing with a team that just hired a new GM that is going to have roster control.

Aside from the situation in New England, when has giving the coach complete oversight been successful?  Not a critical question--I really do not know the answer.

Depends on the coach...

It worked with Carroll, but Carroll's not a control freak.

Obviously, it didn't work with Rhule.

Beyond that, there aren't a whole lot of teams using that model anymore.

    • You’re playing madden we’re talking real football stuff…. He does have you seen his special on internet he def thinks he’s getting paid 
    • Without the team having an identity kinda hard to predict what they value.  They either are really trying to build a balanced team, or preparing for another swing at qb if Bryce doesn’t pan out. Seems like we value the o line but the $ spent there has been underwhelming besides Lewis, you could say it’s because of injuries but still hasn’t been worth the investment. as already stated, the whole handling of Bryce young as a whole has been ass backwards, we spent the years we’re supposed to take advantage of having a qb with a lower cap hit, building the team up to be adequate. now It appears, key word appears, the saints have done it correctly, which is painful to even think about. Regardless, I hope the front office has paid attention to qb contracts recently, such as Tua, Kyler, Daniel jones(pre colts) and don’t settle for subpar qb play at franchise qb rates    
    • This is the flaw in your logic.  Cutting 3 of our best players will somehow move us from whatever we are to "compete". Even the most Young super fans are not predicting a ceiling above top 10-12, and that will not nearly cut it.  Someone will need to break the log jam of QBs getting nothing or North of 50. Our qb is at best a middle ground, lets hope it will be us that also manage to pay the worth at about 100 over 3 years.  And before you jump me, yes that is only of he improves.
