Potential Head Coaches


Mr. Scot

Recommended Posts

Again, I'm just saying its a possibility. I don't see why viewing him as a potential candidate is so wrong. If he's not hired, which could easily happen given the sources, I lose no sleep. If the labor situation picks up and is resolved, and we somehow sign him, I lose no sleep. I'm losing no sleep. But I'm about to go to sleep. Good conversation Scot ;)

Technically, Bill Stewart from WVU is a possibility, but it's not one I'd take too seriously.

Anything can happen, and you can look at whomever you wish. If you want to look at likelihood though, the evidence is stacked against Cowher getting the job.

No desire to rain on anyone's parade. Just trying to be realistic.

Ron Rivera's stock should have been high way before tonight...they've had the #1 Defense for weeks.

Been high for awhile really.

He will be a candidate no doubt.

Peyton only has 7 picks coming into tonight.

Me thinks this kind of 3 pick performance by the Bolt D can really get the Momentum steam train chugging.

Pro-Harbaugh conspiracy theorists might say this:

Hurney has already begun to assemble Harbaughs' coaching staff for next year, consider these facts:

In 1999 Harbaugh led the Chargers(Run at the time by Hurney's mentor Bobby Beathard) to an 8–8 record. His OC was none other than our very own Geep Cryst who helped then quarterback Jim Harbaugh enjoy the second-highest passing output of his 15year NFL career.

Also the Chargers D-line coach in 1996 who followed Hurneys' friend Bobby Ross to Detroit was none other than the Panthers D-line coach Brian Baker.

Harbaugh as head coach, Cryst will be his OC, Baker will be his DC

Your post made me realize that while I'd run the backgrounds of other teams' assistants, I hadn't run our own. Doing that now, and found a little more.

From 1991 to 1995, Geep Chryst was director of research and quality control for the Chicago Bears.

The QB for the first three years of that tenure?

And yeah, he and Chryst reunited in San Diego where Harbaugh was the starting QB and Chryst was the OC.

    • Just another 1st round QB that never paid off for the team that drafted them or traded for them. It's been like this since the SB began. 36 QBs have now won the SB & only 13 of them have been 1st rounders winning with their original team. Namath 1968, Griese 1972, Bradshaw 1974, McMahon 1985, Simms 1986, Aikman 1992, Elway 1997, Roethlisberger 2005, P.Manning 2006, E.Manning 2007, Rodgers 2010, Flacco 2012, & Mahomes 2019. Only 3 have taken longer than 5 seasons as the starter to win a SB.  4  6  5  4  6  4  15  2  9  4  3  5  2 [the years it takes for these 1st round QBs] 5  1  4  1  3  1  1  2  3  4  [10 of the 36 have won a chip with their 1st team that haven't been drafted in the 1st round. These are the years it took them as a starter] What stands out? Only 2 of these QBs have lost their first championship appearance. Elway took 4 years as a 1st rounder & Hurts took 2 years as a 2nd rounder. Of the 10 non-1st round QBs, 2 are 2nd rounders, 3 are 3rd rounders, 5 are 6th rounders or later. Please stop wasting time on drafting 1st round QBs with such a high failure rate. The remaining 13 QBs are traded or free agent signings. Stafford, Favre, Young, Williams and Dawson are the 5 trades. Peyton Manning & Tom Brady also won for teams as free agents on a short stay as well as being drafted. The lesson here is don't waste your franchise on farming up 1st rounders for the league, and steer clear of trading for a franchise QB. Stick to finding that championship QB by drafting them outside of the 1st round or through free agency.  
    • I lost most of the respect I had for Fox in 2010. He should have resigned if he hated the job that much. Instead he stuck for his paycheck and let stuff go to hell.    I burned out on Ron too but my deal breaker issue with him was away from football and after he was gone from the Panthers. He may have been out of his depth but never quit on us. 
    • From where they were one year ago to now, pretty incredible. I mean, say what you want about Vrabel he is no Jerrod Mayo.
