Not saying McD is great but five straight winning seasons says he's at least good.

my take on it simply has changed with all the leaking on McD that was done this year. 

Josh Allen is a rare unicorn QB one man showing it much like Newton did...and emerged at a perfect time in that division.

think he could have some value when you face a team that doesn't fit the modern mold.  Every once in awhile you get a throw back team like the Titans have been the last couple years.    So you throw him on staff because he is a good lockerroom guy and for the random time you might need him (which is the way the NFL works). 

His obsolescence on the field might kill his value off the field. I would have agreed before his time in DC but now retirement looks like his best fit. I just don't know what a cheerleader position looks like for him when the football side is that bad because if a team is playing that kind of team it really shouldn't be hard to understand and know that outdated playbook. IDK, Ron would have to change his MO and that is not really his bag.

I mean, of John Fox, Dom Capers, and all the rest are out there cashing checks.....I don't see why Ron won't go be part of the flamed out HC crowd to go get on a staff.   Too good of a human/football guy IMO to not find employment in some capacity if wants it in some token role in the good ole boy network.

Those 2 are and were better coaches. I agree with about what Ron still has I just don't think he wants to change. He always came off my way or not at all. I could see him going 100% family and never looking back. Time will tell.

He honestly might retire.

Wish him nothing but the best in his future, whatever he chooses. Ron was good people, but it was time when we did it, and time for the commies to do it.

The big moment for me where I realized he was done was where the reporters asked him to comment on that Thanksgiving weekend game between Chiefs and Rams. You can tell he didn't like the direction of the NFL.

Perfect timing to bring Hurney and Ron back to win back over the fanbase from their "glory" years

I hated having Hurney as our GM after 09. The game just passed him by.

Having said that, I would hire him as a "First round Consultant" in a heartbeat. Nothing more. No input on the second round guys who "Had a first round grade" because those guys always suck for us too.

First Round Consultant, that's it.

Good man. Would take him back here as DC in a heartbeat.

You should have stopped at good man - he is. 

His team just finished 32nd in the league in scoring defense.  That's not the guy I want guiding our defense.

      From the ground up: How the Panthers are retooling Bryce Young's footwork to slow down time

      By rayzor · Posted

      the way it should be. the way it has to be.  when you get a rookie (no matter where he is drafted), you don't expect him to play like a vet or even get a grasp on NFL offenses like a vet. if you intend to have him running the offense, you build the offense around what they do and what clicks.  not Young's fault, but he was sold as someone who would be a rookie but has the mind of a seasoned vet. guess what...he wasn't. reich and "his" crew had no idea how to work with a rookie QB or groom one. they thought they knew, but they didn't and it was obvious in the lack of plan they had for him. their plan was to treat him like he was a seasoned vet. even with that, i don't think they had any clear vision not just with Bryce, but with the offense. There was no cohesion between all the various coaches. nothing fit together and reich wasn't a strong enough leader to pull it all together.  i like the approach of starting over with the fundamentals and i think it's good for any new coaching staff or new QB to a system. you don't know what to expect so you start from the beginning to make sure you're on the same page from the beginning. and as you get more used to each other, you learn what works, what could really work well, and what won't work and you form the playbook around that. contrast that with chud who had been working on a playbook for years and just wanted to use it regardless of whether the situation called for it or the personnel he had (on the team or even on the field) fit what he wanted to call.   or last year when we had coaches from completely different backgrounds trying to put something together that was supposed to be a blend of what each brought to the table, but just ended up being a sloppy predictable mess that didn't fit anyone on the team, QB, WRs, and OL.

      Least excitment before any season?

      By Johnstonny · Posted

      I've always been super pumped up for the upcoming season but I've never been so uninterested in a new season. After six years under Dipper I've been left at end of season drunken and wallowing in my own piss... not invested in the team right now but hope Canales and Morgan make a good team together...

      There's no discussion anymore, it's just a circle jerk about how bad Bryce is, and it got old a while ago.
