Coaching Interviews: Round Two

[carpanfan96]

By pivoted,  he means they went from wanting a young OC/DC for HC to being pretty set on an experienced HC. Wanted that to be Payton but he couldn't satisfy some off field concerns with Panthers search party. (Was willing to work with GM's apparently in some situations [hence the Arizona interview] 

 

That left Caldwell, Reich and Wilks

Reich and Wilks had really good interviews with the team. 

 

As for Moore, he's pretty much as far as rumors go the only one of the younger coaches to nail his interview so he made it to round 2. 

 

From the looks of it those 3 are the 2nd round interviews based on early rumors. 

 

With how quiet the Panthers have been, can't confirm with confidence at all.

Maybe he spend 55 of the 60 minutes in the bathroom, and then came out and beat his meat on camera for the other 5 minutes?

I'd be very confused why they wouldn't immediately hire him with that sort of confidence.

Reich got fuged by Luck retiring. 
 

Was the revolving door at QB after Luck (and not drafting and developing a young QB) Reich’s fault or the GM’s? Anyone know?

 

Because his record with Brissett, two corpse QB’s, and Wentz is pretty good. 
 

Makes you wonder what he could do with some consistently at the position. 

Leaving QB hell for QB hell???

what if I told you he was beating off to nicole and she was into it?

Some of y’all would have taken Hackett instead of Pederson if you were a Jaguars fan.

According to the media...

And that's our problem as fans. All we know comes from NFL and team media reports. Those same reports last year had Nathaniel Hackett as the second coming of Bill Walsh (spoken as someone who bought in).

There's no way for us to see what's really going on behind closed doors.

Hackett never called plays and he never developed AR.   Although I imagine he "interviewed" well but I am sure if you looked closely there were red flags abound

Rhule was safe?

 

 

 

that was like busting a nut in a schizophrenic crack head on a drunken one night stand. 

Except Rhule didn’t work out long term nearly as well as that scenario.

Well, I guess the next question is did Tepper enjoy watching?

What if he was beating off to Dan Morgan and Tepper was also into it?

Something I haven't seen mentioned much here... Colts had an atrocious OL this year. If Reich gets the job and he is able to go draft his guy he can immediately put him behind a top 10 OL

What were they even trying to accomplish here?  Why flex the o-linemen out wide?  Nobody thinks they're going to catch a pass.  Has anybody actually said what this play was supposed to accomplish, had it been successful?

If you look at the wide video, they were setting up a wall of guys on the left side of the field. Dak threw it to the wrong guy I guess.

Y'all were missing the most important question, how many here still has Frank Reich's jersey?

There are red flags with all of them. The secret is to know which ones to pay attention to and which to disregard.

Wise teams can do that. Others, not so much.

Moore could also see the writing on the wall with Dak/McCarthy in DAL. May see an opportunity to work with Reich/Wilks as OC as an upgrade.

They probably asked Steichen how he would build his offense around Darnold and Walker, since they plan to sign Darnold to a 5-year deal and Walker to 3.  Steichen forgot to mute his mic when he said "you've got to be effing kidding me.  No wonder that snake oil saleman got this job based on a plate of meatballs."
