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.

McCarthy might not be too bad as it would put him on the market for the Panthers.

The standards are hilarious for these franchises compared to ours.

17 straight winning seasons and a Super Bowl win? Get rid of him.

Greatest coach of all-time with 6 Super Bowls?  Time to move on.

Playoffs every year?  Not good enough.

Just won a MNC?  Under-qualified for Charlotte.

Panthers?  Those are all re-treads, let’s grab that hotshot Memphis Coach or the guy that got fired in Indy. Perfect.

I like two Raven Coordinators, but for the record, if I owned Panthers I would be all over Harbaugh, Belicheck or Vrabel, I think either one of those guys would at least take us in the right direction.

Thinking on it some more, something about Macdonald seems right to me.  

He coached the first defense in NFL history to win the defensive triple crown (point per game, sacks & takeaways).  First in overall defense DVOA.  Was at UGA for a few years to start his career.  Has grinded in Baltimore for 7 years (with a successful detour for Jim at Michigan) Has both Harbaughs and a lot of the NFL thinking super highly of him.  

The dude also just commands that locker room.  Seeing what Kyle Hamilton, Roquan, Queen, & Madubuike, have spoke to, he sounds like an excellent candidate. 

Also re: BAL - last cycle Breer reported we wanted to interview Matteo and were declined.  We requested this time around and got an interview.  

Matteo & Macdonald could be a strong package.

Macdonald is slowly becoming one of my favorite candidates. It's between him and Slowik for me, assuming Ben Johnson heads to Washington and we don't show interest in Vrabel.

I wonder if Slowik will pull a Ben Johnson and stay another year. Since it is his first year being the play caller.

Gronk said NFL Fox pregame that Atlanta is coming after Belichick HOT but if McCarthy gets canned I can see Jerry and Arthur duking it out.

Funny because just reported on NBC by Mike Florio the Falcons want Raheem Morris.

 

Gotta love all these insiders with different reports.

I know our spot isn't great, but we seem to be lucking out and might fall forward into a good coach. The candidates like Slowik, MacDonald, Monken, and Canales might not be the super hot names (Slowik will be hotter after this weekend) but other teams seem to have their eyes set on different targets. LA (Harbaugh), Washington (Johnson), LV (Pierce), NE (Mayo), Seattle (Quinn/Vrabel), Atlanta (BB)....im not betting money that is how things go but it seems odd in general for a cycle with lots of openings.

    • Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F  
    • You gonna make me post Stank before every game?  I kid, I kid.
