Sean McDermott Fired

As much as we often think what if’s about Beane, I look at how he let that defense slip into what it currently is as a bigger problem.

Oh and having a worse WR situation than we had for Cam.

New eras starting for orgs that have been consistent players. Crazy offseason incoming.

The defense has been fairly good through his tenure. This year, the run defense slipped to 28 for whatever reasons, but they had the number one pass defense in the NFL, and overall 7th defense. I am too lazy to research the specifics, but generally their run defense faltered due to injury, aging players and contracts (business decisions and not being able to keep everyone). I have read that McDermott chose a kind of bend-don't-break philosophy and rely more on his elite pass defense this year.

No shot he comes here. He is a battle tested Head Coach.

If I had to put a bet on where he lands, I would say Arizona or Pittsburg.

If I'm DT, I'm called McD right now and asking him what he wants to be HC here.  That said, McD will be the next coach of the Steelers.

Pittsburgh prefers young up-and-comers. If I were betting right now, I'd say Jesse Minter gets the gig.

    • I still think another QB is brought in Day 3. Grier is camp body level at this point.
    • We’re in a pickle. My best hope is we protect him and can run the ball vs most Ds and the WRs are healthy so he has every chance to not look like what he looked like in too many games last year.   
    • I'm really not stressing about upgrading from Bryce. I'm frustrated with our inability (or refusal) to recognize overall bad QB performance and failure to seriously address the issue. QB is the most impactful position on the field, and we're not only settling for what we've been given to this point, but we've rewarded it with a fully guaranteed 5th year extension for a player that's never played 2 NFL franchise QB quality games back to back in 3 seasons. I can't understand how that's ok from a coach's or GM's viewpoint. Successful franchises don't do things like this. It just doesn't make sense.  We do not have a top half of the league QB right now. Since we don't have that player, we should be looking for him. Pickett isn't it. Grier isn't it. Bryce hasn't proven he is yet. Until you have that sure fire franchise QB, you keep looking. You're not consistently making the playoffs, a deep run, or a SB appearance without one.  What's the worst that could happen? We end up with 2 potential number 1 QBs? How horrible.
