My top choice behind Ben Johnson 

guy has done a great job scheming things up in Houston.

its been reported by many including people in Houston that if they had the opportunity at the time.  That Houston would’ve taken Bryce.  And there were article how Bryce was a perfect fit for that Shanahan style offense.

 

Plus it’s a bonus as an offensive HC candidate that he’s got a little taste of coaching on defense in his background.  Including coaching under Robert Saleh in SF.

Given Houston was #2 and had to prepare for either Stroud or Young I find it hard to believe he didn't already have an offensive vision in mind for Young.  He can work in the run game to account for deficiencies in the pass game.  May not be as vertical as Houston's O but he has Noah Brown playing well... That speaks for itself.  Maybe a year or 2 away from being ready for a HC gig.  Debatable but would depend on who he brings in on his staff to help him along.  Get Adam Peters with him or even the KC GM and get him some guys in advisory roles that he's familiar with and let it rip if this is the choice.

I’ve been doing my research on the potential candidates for head coach and I’m fully behind Bobby Slowik. Mike Shanahan was well known for his development of coaches to become head coaches one day and it shows - 4 coaches from his last staff in the NFL, the 2013 Redskins, are head coaches right now. 1 has a Super Bowl ring and I have a feeling his son is getting his very soon. 

Bobby would probably need an experienced defensive coordinator who might have been a head coach previously, but maybe not. Spending time with the Shanahan’s and showing you can design a successful offense in the NFL might be enough. Maybe Evero would stick around with his staff, who knows. Maybe Tabor stays on as special teams coordinator. Maybe the whole thing gets burned to the ground and Slowik builds his own staff. Either way, I’d be excited by this hire because there isn’t a better coaching tree in the NFL than Mike Shanahan’s.

    • Bryce among the 7 players Mark Ross of NFL.com guarantees will get better this season. Today, I am identifying seven players who I guarantee will improve on their 2024 output in the 2025 season. Young took tremendous strides in 2024 after returning to the starting lineup in Week 8 following his benching. He looked far more comfortable in his return and produced with consistency, as he threw for 2,104 yards with 15 TDs and six INTs in the final 10 contests. Most important perhaps is Young's confidence grew immensely down the stretch, leading Carolina to either a game-tying or game-winning drive in six of those games. Now he enters his second season in Dave Canales' system with his best supporting cast to date. The Panthers drafted wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan eighth overall to pair with Adam Thielen and Xavier Legette, who I also believe is poised for a breakout campaign this fall. The 18th-ranked rushing attack from a year ago added Rico Dowdle to complement Chuba Hubbard, giving the team a pair of 1,000-yard rushers. The Panthers have taken the necessary steps to ensure Young's third season will be the best of his career, and now it's up to him to not only continue to grow as a player but prove why he was worthy of being taken No. 1 overall in 2023. I believe that's what he will do. https://www.nfl.com/news/which-nfl-players-will-improve-in-2025-c-j-stroud-deebo-samuel-among-guaranteed-risers  
    • While it's fair to question how impactful a player's relationship with a coach is (especially if someone has questions regarding said coach), it's important to also evaluate the difference between the players here. Jordan Fuller was pick #199 in the 6th round while Justin Simmons was #98 in the 3rd round. Jordan Fuller might have gotten a Super Bowl ring while he was with the Rams, but he got it while on the IR. Justin Simmons, on the other hand, is a x2 Pro-Bowler (2020, 2023), x4 second-team All-Pro (2019, 2021 - 2023), and was the NFL co-leader in INTs (2022). Simmons has also fallen off in the last couple of seasons though, grade-wise. He very well might not be that same player, which could be why the Falcons have elected to replace him with Fuller. As far as getting the best out of what he has, asking him to produce with a starting DL of A'Shawn Robinson (63.56% of the defense's snaps), LaBryan Ray (51.48%), and Shy Tuttle (50.08%) isn't reasonable. Wonnum only played in 8 games, but had the second most % of snaps (37.27%) at EDGE behind Clowney (53.53%). The second-string DL based on snap % was... and don't read this if you just ate... Charles Harris (34.48%), DeShawn Williams (27.67%), and Nick Thurman (19.7%). The second-string EDGEs based on snap count would be DJ Johnson (32.27%) and Cam Gill (18.14%). With the investments made in the run defense this season though, especially on the defensive line, it's more than fair to demand a complete turn around from last season.
