Herm Edwards Our Next DC??? Thoughts???

I think Herm is a polarizing figure, people either love him or can't stand him... I personally love the guy, he wears his emotions on his sleeve and I think he would fire the guys up... YES I would want him to be our DC.

That being said, this may be the first and only thread in Huddle history to use another Huddle thread as its source, lol.

.............:spam: We have the peaces to make it work.

Last time Capers was a DC he was stinking up the place and IMO is not much better then Trgo right now.

Smooth, I felt like a crappy detective... lol. Yeah, he stunk it up last time he coached but he was great in Pittsburgh and our defense was pretty nice when he was here to being with.

But, since my 3-4 thread, I've kind of thought it out and I don't see Fox changing it up. I just want him to fire Turdo, and whatever happens after that, I will be fine with.

I'm not sure if Fox would fire Trgo just to hire Edwards but I think JR might "ask" Fox to fire Trgo to hire Edwards. Perfect situation for both JR and Fox. Forcing Edwards on Fox wouldn't be seen as an insult to Fox seeing how they are close and Fox wouldn't look like the asshole as JR would be the one forcing the Trgo firing.

I'm not sure if Edwards could be more than just another Fox puppet but he seems to be the kind of guy that can get a team fired up. I think he was just in a really bad situation in KC.

    • Possible, he is physical and a forchecker but not a needle mover, but i wouldnt mind it, although I think we have enough 4th line grinders right now between Carrier Robinson and Janakowski  down there, i actually really love our 4th line.            We need scoring in the top 6, and a RHD at this point its definitely coming via trade.            Rasmus Andersson I hear may be on the market, it feels like every couple of seasons someone links us to Erik Karlsson.       As far as centers go,  Marco Rossi (even though we have a ton of smurf already)     Jordan Kyrou is an intriguing option if he is available.           At this point i think Rod should just move Jarvis to his natural center position to give us a 1B center...   yes hes also a smurf but he plays way bigger than he is stylistically.

    • The problem with these summary stats and rankings is that they flatten out progression and assume an even performance throughout the year. His first 3 or 4 games of the season don't really tell you anything about his current level of capacity but more about where he started and what his floor was last year. Given his last several games were against playoff teams, that gives you an idea of his current ability coming into the season. But it will serve more as a floor than a ceiling given the upgrade in talent on offense. And a better defense should give us more stops which results in shorter fields and more opportunities. And going into his third year there is no reason to suspect he will regress. His success wasn't  based on being superhuman but being smart and taking what was the defense was giving him. Distributing to the other guys not trying to do it on his own. He was great at the end when pressured and consistently moved the ball. That makes him a great game manager which is what we need. Something that is easier to do and relies on everyone else rather than having to be a top physical specimen or do it on his own. No one can predict the future but to say we haven't improved much is crazy given just having the Browns anchoring the defensive line will shut down the run and make sure QBs won't be stepping up in the pocket.  Assuming Evero got the message to can the prevent defense and bend until you break philosophy.
