Davidson because I want Meeks to stay where he is.

Agreed plus I want him to have full control of the offense. Most HC want to have there fingers in the Offense. I believe Davidson would allow Meeks to have complete control of the defense. So we win both ways.

And I think Davidson wanted Moore to start or at least Jake to be benched. He was having to become so predictable a caveman could tell what was coming. I dont think he would let him start again but I have no idea what Meeks would do.

The offense has proven that they can succeed on sheer talent, often in spite of playcalling. The playcalling has gotten better with a more competent quarterback, but I'm still of the opinion that the offense's success is more a result of player execution than coaching. For the most part, you can't coach what Williams and Stewart do every week. You just let them run loose.

I will, however, credit him with the offensive line's success. It's impressive that in both this year and last we've had backups come in and perform very admirably.

Now, all that being said, we continue to see the defense improve with each game. Can you imagine if earlier in the season Meeks had the good fortune of simply having an offense that wouldn't put the defense in bad spot? We'd easily be looking at a top 10 defense. I won't even get into the injuries.

Meeks it is.

I say hire a special teams coach, promote Crossman and tell him under NO circumstances does he attempt to coach, all he is to do is to make sure his headsets plugged in a couple of time a game, chew gum and clap. :D

Seriously though I like Meeks only because I like smash mouth football and in the past weeks the offense has looked pretty strong, but the defense has played lights out in a short amount of time.

Between the two I would promote Davidson and let him hire Weiss as OC. Make Meeks DC and assistant head coach. Problem solved. Funny the opinions now. When I suggested making Davidson head coach if Fox left a week or two ago, I was lambasted by the Fox and Davidson haters. 5 quarters of good offense and now everything is great. The pendulum swings pretty fast around here.

I don't think anyone is really suggesting Davidson should be our head coach. Hence the "hypothetical" in the title. It's just an "if given the choice" sort of question.

I still don't think Davidson has shown much, and I think it would be a horrible idea to promote him as head coach. For the record, though, I don't know that Meeks has what it takes either.

I'm of the opinion that coordinators should be promoted after fielding one of the league's best offenses or defenses, preferably for a couple of years at least. I don't think either Davidson or Meeks has done that yet.

Still, I think Meeks has done more with less time here, so I'll go with Meeks.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By strato · Posted

      To start with, you wouldn’t want to count up that value chart. You would see quickly where that is headed. But you basically did a quantity comparison, while ignoring quality.  I am looking at 2023 as the start, because it became all about Bryce.  2023 you have 4 picks plus DJ Moore for offense vs 2 (80 and 145) for defense.  2024 you got the 1st overall, the 32, the 46 and the 101 for offense vs 72, 157, 200 and 240 for defense. Leave the FA IOL out of it. Which was a crazy big  investment. But it wasn’t draft.  Anyway, that is basically 4 top 100 picks for offense and 4 picks for defense in 2024. Except they were 2 first rounders, the second rounder, and the 4th was really high at 101. Vs 72 and day three stuff. Please….  Second quoted/bolded… See you think we hate Bryce. That isn’t it at all. It is nice easy way to characterize us and discredit our talking points though.   Me, I do mostly hate watching him play. But I don’t hate the person. I hate the hell out of the stanning.  It started with the very first question I asked about his footwork, arm strength, and size. Height being the principle objection. I never even got to the durability factor. There was plenty without factoring that in.  But there was rabid opposition to even asking the question of what a couple of small fractions of a second extra closing time would do for the defenders.  What the extra time it takes to flip the hips would do vs a pass rush or on the other end after the ball is in the air. Split second more for recognition where it is going for the DBs.  The tippy toe backpedal.  That poo was a mess and it has always been mess but no Bryce fan wanted to hear it. “Go get another team to root for”. “It worked in the SEC it will be fine in the NFL you don’t know football you are just a hater”.  It got worse when the real games started. It has never stopped. It is nice that many people have left that train so there is less abuse but it hasn’t stopped.  So whatever…

      Whatever school you attended, I don't know and I don't care, but I would suggest demanding a refund.    Something was completely missed there.

      The draft capital since since 2023 has in no way been pretty even.  Especially when you zero in on day 1 and day 2 draft picks.  Draft capital has vastly gone toward the O over D.
