Coach Canales on GMF

[Bear Hands]

A little fluff for your Friday morning

How he ended the interview: "Keep Pounding"

[CamWhoaaCam]

These HC hires have made me numb. I haven't made a comment on this hire because I simply don't trust Tepper can hire the right HC.

 

Instead of trashing the guy, I will just let this one play out. Hopefully he's better than the last 2 HC's Tepper has hired.

I think we are all a bit numb. I loved how Rhule seemed like he had all the answers. Sounded like a preacher. Turns out to be a used car salesman. Frank was going to bring the culture back as our first QB. His offense was bland and he was made to hire a makeshift ‘experienced’ staff. I think this time Dan can bring the culture, and Dave can light a fire under the team. Along with routes that can get our receivers open in 2.7 or less. 
 

The hope is that the hiring staff actually hired them, and not Tepper.

Love the hire and I hope it translates into the football field. I will say that I get a much better feeling about him than Rhule or Frank. He seems young, hungry, and someone who will bring the energy to the team. It’s a huge bonus that we keep our defensive staff together as well.

He seems more genuine than used car salesman Rhule and more energetic than sleepy Reich. That’s already an upgrade lol

No doubt we're numb and have zero expectations.  Only one way to go at this point.  With these interviews, it's just exposure more than anything, not really learning a ton. But what I will say...

Rhule was a used car salesman to a tee.

Frank spoke a lot without saying much.  Rambling non-answers with a bunch of platitudes.

This guy doesn't seem as annoying.  He's got energy and doesn't trail off at least haha

Yup. All I can say is that I don't dislike/hate/doubt it right off the bat for very obvious reasons like the past 2 hires. Would be perfectly fine if no one said another public word until the regular season rolls around... sick of drivel and meaningless coach/office-speak.

Eeeeeh. Watch how he addressed the Teppers at the press conference - he was overly effusive and maintained eye contact.

He's as much a salesman as the rest. 

[Bear Hands]

Rhule: "Look, well you see...[5 minutes of talking]...and that's why, at the end of the day, it's all about the process"

Reich: "*Gurgle/Cough...[5 minutes of talking]...I'm sorry what was the question?"

I don't know.  The thing that sold me on the geniousness was when he was asked a question about if he felt pressure to perform immediately and he responded with <paraphrasing here> "Is it ok to say that I'm nervous?  I've been wanting a head coaching job , it's been my dream and I'm going to take it incredibly serious."

 

It wasn't some standard coach speak BS.

He’s inexperienced and it will show.

He’ll need some time.

Well he's got two things going for him.

He's actually coached in the NFL before unlike Rhule with one season of position coach experience. And he isn't a dinosaur like Reich.

Might as well let him show us something.

Which is why having Jim Caldwell would be good for him
