Basically leaves us, Indy and now Philly with OC promotions for Kevin Patullo and Brian Johnson. 

One of those teams is getting left at the alter - hopefully isn't us.

I guess Jim Bob isn't a bad fall back option but personally wanting Steichen as our HC I'd hate to not get someone from that Philly offense in the door.

Thomas Brown is an option here too.

(but also interviewing in Tampa)

Am I wrong for think that this hire basically cements that we'll have to trade up to 1 to get our QB? If we trade to 3, the Colts trade to 1, and the top two QBs are off the board by the time we pick. With Saturday, I thought the likelihood of them going Levis at 4 was pretty high. Now that they've made Steichen their guy, I'm more worried it will be a competent QB pick.

Steichen to the Colts is official 

 

That poor SOB.  As long as Irsay believes his extensive knowledge is an asset to the people with extensive knowledge, this will be a very tough situation.  When the owner decides who the starting QB should be, success will not follow.

Exhibit B is Jerrah Jones.  Dan Snyder has also tried that at least once.

Irsay, Jones, and Snyder make Moe, Larry, and Curly pretty appealing.

      From what i see, Canales offense requires a QB that is willing to take chances to maximize the offense. XL is also the kind of receiver that needs a qb to be risky to bring out his full potential. Its just a matter of if Bryce is gonna be that QB.

      Baker just played how Baker played.... everywhere but here. He is a risk taking gunslinger.  Always has been.  And last year was asked to be what he was.   Geno Smith was the best deep ball passer in the NFL his comeback season.  Wasn't even close that year.  Again, that's the type passer Canales has always been around in the offenses he has been part of.  The pass game that compliments the stubborn run is the deep chunk play pass game.   And that was his first investment with XL.  My continued point, is the same as going into last season.  It's a bad marriage going in.  The QB doesn't fit the scheme.  Again.  Carrol/Fox/Ron....all paired up their boring football with risk taking QBs.  And again, I'm fine if that is where we are going.  It's not my preference but that's not my argument.  I'm saying if we are doing that, we need a QB that matches it.

      I guess you missed the point. His rushing attack was dead last yet his team still performed. That’s not Fox/Rivera ball. His QB also had a career year. Remember the same QB that played for us in the same division and was so bad he was cut?  Carroll coached after Lynch as well. In fact Canales was more involved in the more recent offense with Geno Smith and a good rushing attack. People are taking him wanting a rushing attack and assuming that means we are shutting down our passing attack. Again many of the top offenses like SF, Miami, and Detroit featured strong rushing attacks.
