I think this is our guy. Dan Morgan as GM now makes this even more likely.

I'm ok with it. I like the guy, but that probably means he's going to suck.

Still there's a lot to be said for his effect on QBs and offenses. Also a lot to be said regarding Seattle's and Geno's decline after he left.

Plus the guy is a motivator/culture changer. Listen to him and he's got that mindset and charisma.

I wonder how they play it? He's probably top of the list behind Johnson but with Johnson being the hot name and top choice for other teams do they interview Canales and keep him waiting until they see what Johnson does, or bite the bullet and hire him this week knowing Johnson likely goes elsewhere?

There's a risk if you make it obvious to Canales that he's the consolation prize that he just stays in Tampa for that extra year of experience.

He has a better resume than Ben Johnson and already has a relationship built with our new GM. If you want a young, offensive minded coach he should be the top candidate.

2 years as Qb coach Russel Wilson had 2 of his 3 best quarterback ratings.

2 years as passing game coordinator DK Metcalf and Tyler Lockett both had fantastic seasons.

Goes back to QB coach and resurrects Geno Smith’s career.

Moves to Tampa as OC and does the same for Baker Mayfield.

None of the other offensive candidates have a 5 year stretch as impressive as that. If you want Bryce Young to have the best chance at being successful Canales is the man for the job.

    • I'm not looking at any of those as a good choice. Willis is a pass and Jones will probably get a contract offer in Indy (and should).  Now, work out a trade for Mac Jones and I might be intrigued. The two best QB factories right now are SF and LARams. Grab someone from their benches and you get a quality guy from a prior high draft that might be reaching their potential. Everything else is a crap shoot at best.  
    • Nijman wasn’t terrible. But I wouldn’t describe his play as good either. I think he’s still best suited as a swing tackle off the bench. And unfortunately Brady Christiansen cannot be relied on given h injuries as well   We should resign Nijman, but we need to bring in someone else either in free agency or the draft to give us an alternative in the event he doesn’t perform. Free agent options are pretty bad unless there are some surprise cuts, so the draft is probably our better option.  With our overall needs, would be nice to shore up the defense in Round 1, but if the value that’s there is in a LT, I think you have to seriously consider that. If Ickey returns and can still be effective, I think you can move him or the new LT over to RT since Moton will likely be retiring in the next couple years. 
    • The moving goal posts for Bryce both ways is wild. But for the most part, this place is overtly negative. First, it was he didn’t show flashes at all of being a #1 pick: he’s done that for sure. Then it was he cannot throw the deep ball and we want to see him take more shots: he’s done that and gotten much better with his timing and accuracy on deep shots. Then it was he can only win with a dominant ground game getting 200+ yards: we haven’t had a ground game since October, he pretty much carried the offense and almost took down the Rams. I get it, you didn’t want him and think he’s too small and weak and nothing will change that. But holy hell give the guy a break. “31 other starters can do what he’s doing” You put a statue back there like Stroud and see how many sacks we give up in that playoff game. I’m not saying he’s a top 15 qb but there are flashes to what he can be if he continues to improve. The disrespect to saying he’s a bottom 5 qb is wild lol
