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.

It's his biggest negative lol in a vacuum without Tepper's fingerprints I like it...

It really doesn’t matter if Morgan can’t put together way better drafts than he took part in with Fitterer.

If the drafts don’t get better, this team won’t be competitive even if Canales is a great coach.

His first draft is handicapped.  

It will be interesting to see though if Canales can get more out of the picks, we have than Reich and Rhule did.  Making Ekwonu more of a downhill blocker, and Horn staying healthy would help a lot.

extremely fair take. It's ok to not want to get duped again

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. 

IDK. Some guy gives you an opportunity of a lifetime and a seven figure check may lead to that type of reaction especially in that  setting.  There is also a degree of eye contact and gratitude required for the sake of professionalism. History makes me dubious but not gonna pass judgement at this point.

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

Sorry to bust your bubble but that committee was just to give Tepper candidates. Ain't no way they came back like "You know what? Just promote the guy you have" and then happened to land on a coach who had a close working relationship with that guy. In the end it was your standard hiring process for a GM and HC.

He’s inexperienced and it will show.

He’ll need some time.

I think the thing we want to see as he makes these mistakes is that he doesn't repeat them.  Tepper has to give him time to grow into the position.  I think Canales has the makings of a coach that we can have around here for many years.  Optimistic of course but he seems to have the right mindset.  Though he didn't mention a timeline I think he's going to do well in Carolina.

I see a person who will be a great coach in the NFL for a long time.   Man crushing right now.  I am excited-never crazy about Fox--grew to like him better, Was not ever a rivera fan, wanted to believe Rhule but he is a BS artist, and I did not get a chance to like Frank, but I was expecting more.  I would run through a wall for this guy--a really soft wall with large holes in it, but still.

    • The era that you played in, and, more importantly, who you played with actually matters. Honestly, that's why these issues will be debated forever, as it's just difficult to say that this person or that person is better when you're discussing the passage of time. As for me, after Rice, Moss and maybe Megatron and T.O., there's probably a dozen or so guys that can be argued about to the cows come home. Personally, I'm not putting Fitz, Harrison, Johnson, Evans, or especially D-Hop, Jefferson, Chase or Hill definitely in front of Smitty (and Colston ain't even in the discussion). Context and all that stuff actually matters. Things like the triple crown matter. 
    • Some of those guys? Yeah honestly you can.  I would 100% take Steve Smith over Larry Fitzgerald, Harrison, even Mike Evans. He is 100% a better player than those guys in his prime. If you look at the numbers Smith is historically under targeted in comparison to his contemporaries. He was only targeted 150 times or more only once in his career. Fitzgerald for example was targeted well above that 9 different seasons. Had Smith played with Peyton, Brady, Greatest Show on Turf, or even with Warner in Arizona he would broken records. His 2008 season was ridiculous accumulating 1400 yards in 13 games on less than 80 receptions. All time he also lost a season due to injury in 04, barely played WR as a rookie. Got robbed of 1k season with Clausen. Thats easily another 1800yds minimum that should have been tacked on to his #s. The only guys I’d say for certain are better than Smith are Rice, Moss, TO, Megatron, Julio Jones, Antonio Brown.
    • I parked in this lot a few times. It would take over and hour to get out of that lot after games. Never again
