The defensive side is really shaping up. the Eagles are morons for firing McDermott. We really did good getting him. McDermott with Rivera having his hand in the mix? OMG we are going to beat some ass on Defense the next few years :D

Now we need to get the Offensive side shored up and away we go!

Not to get everyone down, but you can have the greatest coaches in the world but we still need to find some more talent for this team.

I'm pretty damn excited though.

The thing is we have better talent than has been utilized, so we will see an upgrade immediately. Now we add even better talent to what we have AND better coaching....

I remember how excited everyone was about Jeff Davidson

That was because we were coming off of having an OC who thought that the forward pass was still illegal in football.

Also, who would have thought that the bastard was too cheap to buy no more than 10 sheets of paper per play-book.

All these new coaches will have their own thoughts on new players. We may have a very different look next year.

Glad to see the Huddle pendulum is swinging back to the "Unrealistic and Unfulfillable Hype" side.

nothing unrealistic about it. We have had talent, just no one coached them or used them properly. also we haven't drafted yet or had FA (IF we have FA). There isn't anything at all unrealistic about being back in the playoffs in 2012

    • So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?
    • Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.
    • Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
