NFL Coach/GM Updates


Recommended Posts

I think it's very unlikely we hire a better coach than Vrabel. The only problem is it sounds like he kind of wanted out of Tennessee because they're totally tearing it down (which makes sense). What he would be working with here is also a complete and total rebuild. But it is kind of tough to find his landing spot now that NE is out of the question. I've heard Vegas but their players badly want AP.

Vrabel 2 straight losing seasons.

 

Either you're high on Vrabel or you fail to recognize he's not the best coach on the market. Which one is it?

He is the best coach on the market in years you are kidding yourself.

I guess if Harbaugh left michigan he would surpass vrabel but that hasnt happened.  Vrabel has a high floor and really high ceiling.

He's had Mariota and Tannehill for the last 6 years. He's not exactly been rich with talent outside of Derrick Henry.

Apparently he never had much control/input on personnel decisions and is looking for a landing spot where he can be more involved. So him coming here would hinge a lot on our GM decision (which may be why the coach first, GM second approach is in play).

Yeah but we didnt even request one to my knowledge.  His pedigree is impeccable

They interviewed him last cycle. Probably knew it was a non-starter and saved themselves the negative press of having him decline an interview.

You tend to have losing seasons when the gm and coach are not lock step together.  And this appears to be exactly what happened.  He is a bit old school and loves the old school running game but he is a culture builder and his defense always seems to ball out

 

It would be nuts to not even talk to him.  Same with harbaugh.  Tepper and crew need to pick as many top notch nfl coaches brain about our situation and  young.  I think guys like MV and JH are not going to sugarcoat poo

No coach has done more with less. That's a brutal roster he was working with and one where it's clear he didn't have much personnel control over. He was visibly furious when they traded AJB on draft night.
