NFL Coach/GM Updates

I wonder with theses GM/HC hires how attached are the coordinator positions?  I like the idea of Vrabel in regards to a leader and culture builder (like Wilks), but I want to know how he plans to innovate on his current style.  Frank leaned on his past success and showed a clear lack of growth/innovation. When Frank was hired, I really don't think Thomas Brown was THE plan since Frank was so insistent on calling plays.  Additionally, I feel Evero was forced onto Frank's staff.  (In this case, it worked out)

Do veteran retreads really hold an advantage in filling out a staff?  Do some of the young up and coming have an advantage because they are networking to fill out future staffs?

The GM hire to me, is the most important hire.  Let the HMFIC be the HMFIC.  I'd leave a blank check for Brandt Tilis or Nick Matteo, and let them build from there.  Chiefs and Ravens have been two of the most sustainable teams over the past 15 years.  I'd stay away from all things Eagles right now.  Picking from Detroit is not a bad idea, but I think the combination of Campbell and Johnson is the glue for that team.  Interesting to see what happens when you remove one from the other.

The advantage to guys that have been around a while is they've got a lot of good connections.

That doesn't guarantee they'll hire a good staff of course, but it helps.

Can you imagine the Chaos if Mike Tomlin is also let go.

 

Harbaugh/BB/Carroll/Tomlin surely we can get one of the 4 right?

Harbaugh or Tomlin for me. 

idk what the fascination with BB/Carroll is at this point of their careers. Atleast with a young coordinator you have the *chance* that you found a long term solution.

Can't wait til this dude hires another Boomer retread. That will be the final nail in the coffin for this club.

he wont. Tepper goes extremes. College coach who never has sniffed the NFL to retread NFL coach who has been around for 30 years. I'm fully expecting a WNBA assistant coach to get the job

    • I thought this presented an interesting point. It is fair to wonder now, about switching the two QBs as so many tried to do that first year where Bryce was trash and CJ looked great.  It is almost the reverse scenario now and I wonder what CJ would look like here with better weapons better coaching and better protection. Overall, compared year one.  If each player had been in the other place for the three years. I would love to see CJ with this team now.  Just to see. 
    • I really have no clue what to expect sunday.  To quote one of my favorite bands of all time, Operation Ivy "All I know is that I dont know".  We could win, hell we could win convincingly, we also could lose in blowout fashion.  We could be in a back and forth game with whoever has the ball last winning.  I legit HAVE NO CLUE.  This isnt the dominant bills teams of the past, Allen is still elite and can win any game by himself.  That said, heres my stab at looking at things. Our defense is made to stop this kind of team.  Strong against the run, a great corner but meh talent around the field.  We've stopped prolific run offenses this season.   Javonte Williams - Season low yards and ypa against us. De'Von Achane - Season low yards and ypa against us Breece hall - 3rd worst yards in a game Fact of the matter is, we arent what we were last year, we are a good run defense and that lines up well against the bills, Stop the run.  For once the lack of moving Jaycee might be a good thing, he will essentially lock down a side and without multiple real weapons thats fine.  Buffalo does not have an elite guy, theyve got a gaggle of average dudes.  Allen will stay away from Jaycee, it will be on Mike Jack and Chau Smith Wade do to their part and they will be matched with guys they can play at the level of. On offense, we do what the bills are bad at.  We run the ball well, and they suck at stopping the run.  Rico and Chuba will need 30 carries.  Andy Dalton will need to be opportunistic.  My big fear is what we learned last year, Dalton can get overconfident and make bonehead throws.  Its this simple.  Run the ball, stop the run.  Dont turn the ball over.  If we do these 3 things, we will be in a position to win in the 4th quarter.  
    • This makes me wish we took a flyer on Quinn Ewers late in the draft
