Glad to see Tepper is learning, but I find it funny how hard of a 180 he's done.  We went from a staff with 0 NFL experience to probably the most experienced staff in the NFL lol.

It seems like reactionary 180 decisions have been a theme for a couple years. This one feels different, like Tepper finally said fug it here's a blank check get your dream coaching staff so I can show my face in public again

If they aren't interested in coaching them up then what good are they?

The idea that coaches just what easy gigs without challenge doesn't seem based in reality.

If a coach has this approach you don't want them to begin with.

 

Understanding sarcasm is an art.  Our TE room is bad, but a job is a job especially if it's a promotion.

so do we know who they are talking to re: Tight tends coaching job?

i was just trying to get an idea of who thy might be chasing after. i started trying to do some digging, but after about 10 minutes of googling i gave up. 

i see us going three routes based on what we've done so far...either guys who have been head coaches or that are on track to be a head coach or who are position coaches and assistant head coaches...or long term players who are getting into coaching. 

so who is...

1) a former head coach who also either was a TE or coached TEs?

2) a rising star coach who may have played TE?

3) a former stud TE who is wanting to break into coaching?

I wonder if Tony Gonzalez wants to break into coaching?  He's still in broadcasting, correct?  What's Antonio Gates up to these days?

i was thinking about them. I don't think Gates is doing anything right now, but Gonzo has no desire to coach and i think he'll probably work with amazon again.

https://www.tmz.com/watch/0-c265zeyy/ this is him basically saying that coaching takes too much time and it would be a waste of time for him.

Kaye hinted that it could be Jeff Nixon.

That would make sense. Nixon did a good job with the running backs and he's coached pretty much every skill position on an offense. He was also one of the more NFL experienced coaches on Rhule's staff. Plus he's reported to be very well-liked and respected in the building.

To top it all off, it'd be kinda funny to see Reich succeed with one of Rhule's guys when Rhule couldn't 😀

      Does anyone actually think Bryce will actually be good?

      By d-dave · Posted

      The problem that Bryce faces is his lack of prototypical tools.  He's not the tall, strong armed mobile QB that tends to get drafted first overall.  His game is not played in underwear on a practice field.  His best asset are his intangibles.  They aren't sexy like a cannon arm or a fast 40 yard dash. OK, so we took the lesser athlete.  Bryce put up a pretty bad season with a bad team around him.  The coaching staff, for all it's platitudes, sucked.  They made sure Bryce could run a huddle, but didn't help him get better as a player.  Bad choice. Compare that to what other teams did to their Rookies:  they put them in position to succeed with better personnel and better play calling.  Sure, there are physical differences which are going to affect the outcomes, but you can't change it. Am I trying to ride to the defense of Bryce?  Only a little.  He's my favorite team's QB, and I believe in him.  Now, he's got this year to show that he's "the No. 1 for a reason" (Thanks CJ Stroud).  Will he, won't he?  I don't know at all.  That's on the D&D crew to put Bryce is position to play well.  Running the ball is going to make things a lot easier for Bryce.  Does that discount his success if he plays well?  For some of y'all it will.  Some of y'all just don't like Bryce, like he stole you DoorDash or something. Regardless, let's see what happens in 2024.  If Bryce stinks it up, then we're going back to the QB well again.

      we may think we know, but we don't know. we won't know what effect upgrades on the OL, coaching staff, and WR room will have. we don't know what scheme canales is going to put together. we don't know a lot of things.  that's why we play the games...to see what shakes out. plenty of reasons to think Bryce is limited this year...again. Plenty of reasons to see an improvement in his play.

      He did not elevate the players around him, but they de-elevated their QB.  A QB like Bryce needs a system, a strong OL, a Running game, and WRs that can get open.  Call him a manager at best, but so is a point guard.  That is all we should need.  He is smart enough to grow into a very effective player.  I once saw a Coach talking about the OL--i forget who it was Schottenheimer comes to mind--and he said, you can succeed if you have one weak link on the OL.  If you get 2 weak links, success comes 10x harder.  If you get three weak links, your season is over.  Your QB is injured, and you are unemployed (paraphrasing).  I would say that we had 4 weak links (Icky does not get a pass) and a RB who was not good at pass blocking. I am not saying the Bryce is the answer at QB--but I am saying we don't know yet. I know QBs (college) and when the OL sucks, they collapse mentally over time.  That is what we saw--a QB who had never played without the advantage.
