That's a good one.

The clip with Kristen Balboni (posted elsewhere) is good too.

Thats a great interview as well Scot. I can see why he stood out to Tepper with the way he has a good vision for his next team and explaining what he's learned and how he intends to apply it to his next gig. It's well worth a listen.

Yup. Both interviews give reason to be optimistic about the staff.  A HC becomes great with the guys around him.  Reich seems to have learned a lot on building out his crew.  Hopefully the mix of guys he's alluding to is followed through.  

My biggest takeaways with this first day-ish:

-Lively offense.  QB centric w/intelligence & playmaking being top traits

-Balanced coaching staff -- wants the experienced, up and comers, the yellers, & the reserved.  They all have their place.  Can't have too many of any particular type, it's about both being quality and complimentary.   

-He really likes our defensive core and wants to keep building it.  I think we're trying to get one of these top guys pretty swiftly.  Gonna guess Manuel.  

There's no "program" to buy into or whatnot.  He sounds like he's very sound, matter of fact and wants to build in a smart, balanced, methodical way. Complimentary pieces, all about cohesion and intelligence.

Who writes in proper English on an online thread? When did this turn into Freshman English class? And what exactly are you trying to imply?

Wrong again, there were quite a few of us, who was pulling for Wilks

  

Wilks better hope that he doesn't get run out of San Francisco on a rail. 

The point is, that we should've been (and should be) able to get someone more promising than Wilks or Reich. Neither one has a modern offensive mind in my opinion. Their sensibilities go more towards old style, smash-mouth football. I'm not sure that either one could outcoach the best coaches of the day.

      I just mean it’s always offsetting in that situation.  I didn’t realize they called another penalty

      And as I asked this again before, what goes into PFF's man open %, as I know you've brought that stat up before. Is that just the number of routes he gets open at any point during the route, or is it calculated on targets and if he was open when the ball got to him. Because like I pointed out so many times in the lead up to the draft, a big reason it was harder for him to get separation against man was because he not only had his man on him, but he was double or triple teamed on the majority of his routes this past year.  Just because of that alone, it was easier for him to get open against zone coverage where he could find holes and sit in them. Also, again, as been discussed so many times, his QB's play this year was awful, and lots of times his contested catches were due to him not delivering the ball on time when T-Mac got open.  Or just times he got open but wasn't targeted for whatever reason. So just using that stat as a way to say he struggles to get open against man is more likely than not, disingenuous. Hell, it's a PFF stat that you're using against him, yet at the same time, PFF absolutely loves him, he was their 4th overall player.   I posted this clip on here a week or so ago of the T-Mac vs Hunter game in 2023, where the anti T-Mac guys like to say Hunter shut him down.  But numerous times in this video you see T-Mac create tons of separation from Hunter but the ball wasn't thrown his way, plus a clear PI that wasn't called (and the one that was). https://x.com/4MR_Fetti/status/1918262063660454227 The "he can't separate" narrative is way overblown and become something more myth than reality.  No, he's not an elite separator like some of the quick twitch WRs, but he's so much better than the haters here like to say.
