Yeah even though we're likely missing out on Johnson there are so many other good candidates and we should land one of them. 

MacDonald is probably my favorite as of now (subtracting Johnson), but I also won't be complaining at all with Callahan, Smith, Canales, Morris, or Monken. Speaking of Monken, if any of you listen to The Roar they finally released an episode yesterday and they made a very convincing case for Monken. I'd be fine with him.

I'll have to check it out bc he's the only guy I wouldn't feel that great about.

They reckon Harbaugh is worth about $35m.

I can't imagine he's going to walk away from the pinnacle of his career, winning a National Championship for his alma mater, for pure cash. He's going to walk away for legacy - winning a Super Bowl.

No coach is winning a Super Bowl in Charlotte in the next five years. 

add onto this that his brother already has a super bowl win, over him no less, and could very well win a second this year. Jim has to be zeroed in on winning a championship as his only goal. having a championship at both the NCAA and NFL level would give him a special status, even in his very well accomplished family.

Are we being secretive? I feel like last go around, tons of info was getting leaked and insiders were saying a lot more. This year, it feels like not as much is being said besides “coach x interviews today” type of stuff. Do they have something planned, or am I just not seeing people report on what’s going on?

I hope he hires the 2 positions of GM and VP-Football Operation a package deal before hiring the head coach whether GM: Alec Halaby/Ed Dodds/Dan Morgan/Brandon Brown and then for VP-Football Operations: either Brandt Tilis/Alec Halaby/Nick Matteo/Khai Harley/Mike Disner! Then for HC: Ben Johnson/Mike Macdonald/Todd Monkin/Bobby Slowik/Ejiro Evero!

Yeah it’s locked down super tight. Likely due to oversight of the advisory group and less people being involved. They know they are at a disadvantage and aren’t going to show their hand anymore than they have to. 
 

I believe the Champ Kelly reports are made up for misdirection. It didn’t come out until the following day when the Panthers were meeting with Halaby who is the young Havard graduate for the Eagles who runs the analytics department and serves as AGM under Roseman. 

Sportsology also helped out the Eagles a few years back and are likely very familiar with him already.

I’m not saying he will get it, but it was odd how the Champ Kelly news leaked right after Halaby’s interview. The news is also beneficial to Kelly by demonstrating to the Raiders that they may have competition if they wish to retain him.

I like the little game being played there. Humans by nature are loss-averse, so suggesting to the Raiders that they might lose Kelly might force their hand.

I think they are done with Howell. One of the reasons I have been thinking Johnson would go to Washington would be his ability to get Williams or Maye. New GM, New HC, New QB. 

Yeah as much as I liked Howell, Brissett had the offense looking way better. They are positioned get one of the big 2, it would be wise to take one.

falcons knocking out there rooney rule guys today... Makes me think they are going to hire BB

Yeah I really think BB is happening there.  Blank wants him.  He's got a talented roster sans QB.  Watch them get BB and land Cousins in FA.

In the last 24 hours, reports that Sirianni could be gone with an L, Tomlin could take a hiatus after this season, and obviously some have speculated about McCarthy’s safety if the Cowboys flop in the playoffs.

Any of these coming open would be brutal for us. Multiple coming open would especially sting.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.

      Moton Meets the Press

      Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By rmoneyg35 · Posted

      I think people aren’t patient enough with Young. It can take a few years for a QB to develop. Look at Darnold, Baker and most recently Daniel Jones.   he hasn’t been able to put up big passing numbers either cause of how much we run the ball. You can tell our coaching staff still hasn’t took the training wheels off Bryce and let him go all out. We’ve had some pretty bad receivers as well. We finally got a true number one last year and look how much Bryce improved. Still we didn’t really have any depth behind TMac. Coker was hurt for a lot of the year and XL was our #2. How many big plays or TDs has XL dropped? I think this year can be the year we see Bryce able to hit his stride. If not then we can start looking for another qb but I just ask people to be patient.
