Let Meeks bring in who he wants.. let him form his own staff who he feels comfortable with..

i doubt Meeks wuda been taken seriously as a DC with Herm barking the orders and be the most vocal guy on the coaching staff..

ie- Peppers being taken seriously as a captain :rolleyes5:

Exactly. Edwards is used to running things and being the center of attention. There is no way having him coaching the DB's wouldn't have cause problems, especially since he and Fox are such good friends.

Besides, Edwards will be great on TV.

As a former Eagles fan I followed Edwards career and thought alot of him as a player but as a coach not so much. When I read about his bend don't break philosophy I wondered how he could change so much from his playing days and why in the world did we want another DB coach espousing the passive weak zone coverage favored by Trgo/Lewis. Frankly I will like him a lot more as a analyst than I would as a coach. I am ecstatic we didn't get him as a coach.

I'm surprised anyone ever thought it was a possibility that Herm might come here and coach DBs. Him maybe being the defensive coordinator wasn't completely far fetched but going from head coach to a position coach is too much of a drop off for a high profile guy like Herm Edwards.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By Tepper's Chest Hair · Posted

      Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.

      Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying.

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
