If bryce cant be fixed under the Shanahan philosophy then there is no hope. And i mean that. It should be immediate improvement. 

I hope the entire interview committee is telling all these prospective candidates that we're obviously giving Bryce all of 2024. But without improvement we can start looking for replacements as early as 2025. If we're pitching this job that it's Bryce or bust I'm staying far away. And I'm someone that hasn't been near as critical of Bryce as most of this board has, I still have hope for him. But we need to see improvement next year.

No matter who we hire. I have a feeling the new coach will have a much longer leash than Reich. Especially since we have a first round pick in 2025. 

Is that because David Tepper has learned his lesson or because he knows people think he's horse sh-t and he doesn't want to look even worse? 🤔

I think Reich would have survived if we had of kept our first round pick. 

Reich was on thin ice as soon as he went public about the Monday morning dates with Tepper following the Lions game.

I'm surprised we don't even have a slight read on the top HC candiates at this point. I would have thought we'd have a decent idea on the top two names. It feels like it really could be anyone at this point. 

Once they announce the 2nd interviews we’ll have a better idea.

Both but probably the latter. But the coaching list this year is much better and if you hire someone like Slowik you need to give them a long leash.

Note that we HAVE to interview two external minority candidates in-person to satisfy the Rooney Rule, so I'm fairly certain Raheem Morris is going to get a second interview (I'm actually not even that against it, he was hired super young in Tampa, won 10 games his second season, and has worked on both sides of the ball). I bet the other in-person Rooney Rule candidate is Canales (he's hispanic so fulfills the Rooney Rule requirement). And honestly, if Ben Johnson goes elsewhere and Slowik stays in Houston, I wouldn't be all that opposed to either Morris or Canales.

My guess for second interview requests;

  • Ben J (possibly denied/hired elsewhere)
  • Slowik (possibly staying in HOU)
  • Canales (Real interest/Minority Interview)
  • Morris (Real interest/Minority Interview)
  • Evero
  • MacDonald

Back up options.

  • Callahan (if one of the top 2 don't take 2nd interview)
  • Brian J (Backup Minority interview)

I DO NOT think they all get interviews, but it depends on how the first 2 guys shake out in terms of taking the interview or not.  This is also not a list of preference, just listing them as I thought of them (So maybe it is kind of preference... idk)

I truly think if Morris can bring Zac Robinson and keep Evero as DC, we will be cooking with fire. 

Morris is ready for a second go and had the Rams D playing very well over the past couple of years. He knows both sides of the ball and is very highly thought of around the league. Having connections and respect around the league needs to be at the top of our priority list. 

Carolina's vacancy is the most tarnished of all open HC/GMs. I wonder if we would tap Greenberg from TB as the GM with the connection they both have. Not the greatest GM option, but I wonder who else would work well with RM.

    • If he really wants to be here, that can happen.  It's totally up to him.  Yes, he'll have to take a hometown discount to do it.  He'll have to show that the last two seasons were outliers and he hasn't become an injury risk. It will come down to money and how much of it he wants.  If he wants to be paid at the upper end of the scale, it won't and can't happen here.  When healthy, he deserves that kind of pay and if he wants it someone else will pay it. It can totally happen.  And it's totally in his court.  
    • He was on the "sideline" during OTA or mini camp, Im sure there was some Twitter/X post but news just moves so fast now.  He's not getting the press as TMac or even Horn, but he is making plays. That's the other deal, Im a big fan of his!  Just in order to get great value you need to give value in return. I said he would have been a 3rd rounder in 2025 draft, he just had bad luck with injuries hurting his stock and coming out in a deep WR class.  
    • I've always said that PFF is a tool. If you don't know how to use it, or don't want to know how to use it, then it's useless. But some people actually do know how to use it---which is why it still exists and is used by all 32 NFL teams---and part of this is putting it all within context----seeing the bigger picture. If you don't understand that not all players, develop at the same rate, have different levels of talent, have injuries that affect their play, and face different circumstances in regards to the opposition and coaching, for example, then I don't know what to tell you. Coaches set expectations based upon a variety of things, not only last year's stat sheet, which may have been brought about by dynamics that you, as a fan, may or may not understand. And even if you have some understanding of them, as a fan, you still will never have the clarity that they do---the concerns or the context that they do. As a fan, you should even be putting your lack of understanding their context, into context (and stop trying to act like you know something to be true based upon a bad season at the end of the day).
