He's the leader type but the assistants are the driving the xs and os


Totally get that.

But…as Julien Edelman said…”we worked for Belachick…we played for Tom”.

X and Os don’t matter if the team isn’t motivated.

Ben might be great. Who knows.

The more I look into and think about it, the more I want Bobby Slowik as our coach.  What I thought about was Dan Quinn, he was hired in atlanta and looked amazing early, but what made him successful was having a good Offensive Coordinator, that OC was Kyle Shannahan.  After he left, Dan Quinn began his downfall.

A comparable situation is Demeco Ryans.  Would the Texans be where they were without that impressive offense?  I think Slowik is a high flying up and comer coming from the Shanahan coaching tree.  One other benefit is that he and the Texans had plans around if Bryce would fall to them at 2 meaning to me he had some sort of plan for Bryce should he have been Houstons QB.  Also he'd be 36, so basically the same age as Kyle was when he got the SF job.  Pair him with Evero and lets roll.

Isn’t there some rule that you can’t talk to coaches until like January 24 or something? Basically we’re probably a ways away from getting any sort of substantial news regarding this hiring cycle 

 

IMG_5621.jpegCan at least get your first round of interviews out of the way and get your list whittled down.

Nothing. He's just a bit too "tin foil hat" for the mainstream to take so McAfee's bosses (aka Disney) said stop having him on your show.

lmao I just read up on it. McAfee sold his soul to ESPN. He has nobody to blame but himself. These guys can't talk like they normally talk on a company owned by Disney.

 

Never understood why these big time podcast personalities go to ESPN. Same thing with Shannon Sharpe. Bro just build your own company stop chasing a quick bag.

Yup. Pat could easily have a very successful national radio show, podcast like Rogan, and do guest spots all over. He even gets bank from WWE. But no ... he takes his "brash" personality to Disney lol. I know they pay well, but come on. You have to hold back every second in your dorky little tank top while you stand the entire show.

Lebatard said something similar about famous podcasters on espn. Eventually they will tell espn to fly a kite, like his show did. Although, my favorite part about the lebatard show on espn was that they were the rage against the machine, in the machine.

Slowik is my choice too after investigating all the candidates

    • I personally think you are trying to talk yourself into circles here... It's ok to say Bryce played incredible the last 5 weeks... I know there are plenty of people on this board who desperately need the doom-and-gloom narrative, but I genuinely question how much NFL QB play some of these people really have watched when they still question him being the unquestioned starter for next year...  Again, that being said, no one is crowning him at all. I think Bryce is one of the best stories going into 2025 bc his season last year was so outlandishly unprecedented. It's totally fair to personally not believe in Bryce. Plenty of sports "journalists" need to write stories, and that's an easy narrative path... But I think that actual people in the know rank Bryce much higher. That's the fun thing about sports... we shall see!
    • Regardless of how we got here, any rational fan should be excited by how well Bryce played down the stretch. Anyone not happy about that level of play either doesn't know what they're looking at, or they're still trying to drive tired narratives. Obviously, Cam had an all-time rookie season, and I'm not putting the two in the same basket yet, but as someone who has watched every snap of Panthers football since the start of the new millennium (Im old), Bryce was playing at a higher level at the end of 2024 than Cam was at the end of 2012 (his 2nd season). Cam continued to develop into MVP form, something Bryce has to prove, but as someone who watched both (and will stan for Cam always), Bryce was playing at a higher level to end year 2 than Cam did.  Go watch the film if you dont believe me. None of that means anything for the future. But the people who said BY9 couldnt play in this league are wrong.   That being said, the only thing that matters is this year. #20 is perfectly fair IMO going into the season. I mean think about it, how would you rank him??!  His in-season turnaround is one of the wildest things I've ever seen... how do you rank a guy who looked like a massive bust in September and by January was consistently playing at a top 10 level? My excitement level is pretty damn high heading into this season. There were throws from the Chiefs game onward where Bryce had Drew Brees levels of anticipation. Im excited to see what he can do with a full deck on offense, something we really never gave Cam. Really hope and expect Bryce to move up this list this season.  
    • Not really, the only QB's (other than Anthony Richardson) ranked below him are new to their teams as a placeholder starter or drafted in 2024 or 2025, not a lot of gymnastics to get there. It's not about how many that is, if it's 20, 12, or 2... It means there isn't a QB who's team has committed to them for the long term right now that they have ranked below Bryce. That's not a great thing.
