When has a plan like that ever been executed in the nfl?

Bill Walsh handed the 49ers over to his DC George Seifert.

They might have been able to keep going there if not for the fact that Seifert was kind of a dick.

Pretty sure Belichick was fired. Reid too. Levy wasn't especially successful in Kansas City either. Carroll was fired two or three times.

Was about to post the same thing. Arguably the best coach ever, Belichick was fired from the Browns.

Please enlighten me with how many NFL championships Carrol and Belichick had at their previous stop?

I don’t know. But I know Belicheat was fired by the Browns with a staff full of future head coaches like Nick Saban and Carroll was highly successful in college and only left to the NFL because USC was getting hammered for cheating

Thats kindof my point.  My scary point.  We trust these bozos to correctly assess one of these guys from a zoom interview?

I have no problem with the zoom interview thing.  The candidate is based on their responses.  Zoom or in person does not change that.

Plus,,,the bozo in the room last time (in person mind you) was Hurney.  Tepper new and too gullible.

For the “Steichen” crowd

steichen worked under Reich

Sirinani, worked under Reich

Philly’s DC…..Worked under Reich

Bears HC……. Worked under Reich

Philly Pass game coordinator…….Worked under Reich

Bears DC…..Worked under Reich.

 

he has the connections across the league to build a decent staff as well.

I'm sorry, but that's a REALLY bad plan.

Those young assistants that are being groomed to be HC's keep getting hired within 2, maybe 3 years of them getting the OC job.

The odds of us being successful enough that we have one of those coaches at the time Reich is ready to step down is pretty low.  

Plus... we're literally turning down said groomed young OC's to hire the stop gap now... why not just skip the stop gap and go for someone who helped launch Herbert's career when he had questions coming out of college about being ready and helped shut down any questions about Hurts being a legitimate starter in the league as well!?!?!

In the last 4 years he has literally taken 2 QB's who were not sure fire NFL starters and helped turn one into an MVP candidate and another who is likely better but had a lot of injuries around them this year and still had a great season.

In the end, I just can't get on board with the idea of hiring someone of his age when we're not already in a win now mode.  Why are we wanting to hire someone with the idea of then drafting a young QB who we'd hope will play longer than the coach will still be coaching?!?!?

Its absolutely moronic seeing how one way or another we are going into 2023 with a young inexperienced qb and we will not even talk to a dude thats developed 2 of them in his career.  Completely turned one around in Hurts.  fuging bizarre man

That’s definitely a huge qualification he has on his resume. And probably the biggest reason why he’s still firmly ahead of Wilks for me.

Someone sell me on Reich. On the one hand Indy's ownership is a dumpster fire at best Irsay is a clown of the highest order. On the other hand who was it that pushed for Wentz? And there were some abysmal offensive performances with Reich at the helm.

    • It's rare enough for a running back to tear the same ACL twice. There's not much of a sample size on the recoveries. And of course Dobbins has missed a lot of time--he was injured twice. That number will drop as his career continues, and even if it doesn't, that doesn't necessarily mean it has anything to do with the prior injuries. Dobbins just started and played well for a playoff team all year until he was injured by a hip-drop tackle. Surely his ACL recoveries didn't contribute to his completely random foot injury caused by an illegal tackle? Again, I'm confused why everyone is being so definitive that there's 'very little chance' of any meaningful contribution ever when the greatest counterpoint ever played for us. Thomas Davis tore the same knee over and over again and was basically fine. As for the roster-building stuff, we'll see what happens with Chuba and Dowdle at the end of the year, but Etienne's not going to factor into this. Either Brooks comes back, in which case we've already seen more from him than we have from Etienne, or he doesn't. But Etienne's not forcing him off the team. If anything, Etienne's current role is his absolute floor.
    • Then I would assume disingenuous. Why on earth would you consider this an "exciting" time to be a Panthers fan? Let me ask this, how old are you and how long have you been an NFL fan?
    • An ESPN writer had a good breakdown of teams that were likely to come back to earth(KC and Redskins were two of them) based on outlier results in 2024 in close games. I think that has a lot to do with it. Found it: https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/46003861/nfl-teams-likely-decline-lose-more-games-2025-season-predictions-vikings-chiefs-commanders-lions-colts
