If JR follows his trend, its be an overrated retread like cowher.

hopefully he doesnt.

Not sure where you get that.

Jerry hired a retread one time, and it didn't go well.

He's hired two upcoming DCs and those were the better hires.

The trend definitely doesn't favor Cowher.

but the pattern does (while we're playing nostradamus)

DC, retread, DC, ?

Also, we need a coach with age and experience. Whether that be a former player in Harbaugh, or a proven winner in Cowher or Grimm.

Most of our players right now lack fundamental discipline (see the angles Charles Godfrey takes on tackles, as well as Marshal's constant stupid penalties). I believe this to be a combination of a couple things: Fox's coaching style as well as the palyers youth.

Kevin Gilbride, Jim Harbaugh, Ron Meeks, Mike Mularkey, Russ Grimm, and Rob Ryan may get interviews IMO

Harbaugh should be the coach...at least that's who I would like to see us hire

Kevin Gilbride will get hired by Hurney to be our next coach, I think he has learned a lot since being the HC in SD and his work with Eli as a rookie gives him an edge

He also has a Steeler connection

Should be a guy who has a lot of fire and passion, and who the players like. Despite what people say about him, Fox's players always have respected him and liked him, he is far from the Brad Childress. With a diva like Steve Smith and coming off an awful season, the next coach better possess this quality.

I feel that it will either be Harbaugh, Mcdermont, Grimm, Rivera, or Leslie Frazier (if available). It will be interesting to see how our draft position affects potential coaches decisions. ie will Harbaugh only come if he is guaranteed the ability to draft Luck or does that matter to him?

tough to say anything definite at this point, but I am pretty certain and am very happy that Cowher will not be the coach. Why? JR has proven if anything this season he doesn't hold the average fans demands at a very high priority. Cowher is a popular choice because people see that he won a Superbowl in the last couple years, despite not winning one ever before that, and the slightly more educated fan may point to JR's ties with the Steelers. However, this team needs a fresh face to go along with this youth movement we are tied to, and the Steelers did the same thing with Mike Tomlin. Raheem Morris' success is just another reason why the next coach will be an up and coming face, not a retread.

At the end of the day, I want Grimm, McDermont, or Rivera.

      PFF ranks the 2025 starting QBs

      By Seltzer · Posted

      I personally think you are trying to talk yourself into circles here... It's ok to say Bryce played incredible the last 5 weeks... I know there are plenty of people on this board who desperately need the doom-and-gloom narrative, but I genuinely question how much NFL QB play some of these people really have watched when they still question him being the unquestioned starter for next year...  Again, that being said, no one is crowning him at all. I think Bryce is one of the best stories going into 2025 bc his season last year was so outlandishly unprecedented. It's totally fair to personally not believe in Bryce. Plenty of sports "journalists" need to write stories, and that's an easy narrative path... But I think that actual people in the know rank Bryce much higher. That's the fun thing about sports... we shall see!

      Regardless of how we got here, any rational fan should be excited by how well Bryce played down the stretch. Anyone not happy about that level of play either doesn't know what they're looking at, or they're still trying to drive tired narratives. Obviously, Cam had an all-time rookie season, and I'm not putting the two in the same basket yet, but as someone who has watched every snap of Panthers football since the start of the new millennium (Im old), Bryce was playing at a higher level at the end of 2024 than Cam was at the end of 2012 (his 2nd season). Cam continued to develop into MVP form, something Bryce has to prove, but as someone who watched both (and will stan for Cam always), Bryce was playing at a higher level to end year 2 than Cam did.  Go watch the film if you dont believe me. None of that means anything for the future. But the people who said BY9 couldnt play in this league are wrong.   That being said, the only thing that matters is this year. #20 is perfectly fair IMO going into the season. I mean think about it, how would you rank him??!  His in-season turnaround is one of the wildest things I've ever seen... how do you rank a guy who looked like a massive bust in September and by January was consistently playing at a top 10 level? My excitement level is pretty damn high heading into this season. There were throws from the Chiefs game onward where Bryce had Drew Brees levels of anticipation. Im excited to see what he can do with a full deck on offense, something we really never gave Cam. Really hope and expect Bryce to move up this list this season.

      Not really, the only QB's (other than Anthony Richardson) ranked below him are new to their teams as a placeholder starter or drafted in 2024 or 2025, not a lot of gymnastics to get there. It's not about how many that is, if it's 20, 12, or 2... It means there isn't a QB who's team has committed to them for the long term right now that they have ranked below Bryce. That's not a great thing.
