Dear Chud, look at Mike Martz before taking a promotion...

I think there is a better than average chance that Chud does not jump at the first chance he gets to be a head coach. It depends on exactly what his career goals are but the smart play is to stay here as the OC and keep building a resume (assuming the wheels don't fall off in the off season). The longer he keeps it up here the better his paycheck will be when he finally ends up somewhere as a HC - bonus that he'll have that much more experience to draw on.

I'm sure he'll interview but I'm counting on him being back next year.

Have to strike while the iron is hot.

Our offense could regress next year and boom, his future as a HC could be ruined. Not saying that could happen but it has before. See Rahem Morris last year.

I would hate to see him leave but I completely understand if he takes another job as HC.

Wait for it.

It is what it is.

We still haven't seen Chud's full playbook. We've seen a lot of trick plays and shotgun formation, but I feel we haven't gotten to the meat of this offense. Chud is not going to let Cam go undeveloped in this area. I believe he stays so Cam can really explode, and boost his own HC credentials.

You are not ready to be a head coach. Spend a few more years here as our OC then think about it. Do it now and screw up, and you won't get another chance for a long while. Ask Mike Martz.

Love,

Zod

Not familiar with MM, so I wiki him....doesn't sound terrible....

As a head coach in the NFL Martz was 56-36 in 5⅓ seasons as the St. Louis Rams head coach. He won two division titles, had four playoff berths including a NFC championship and a trip to Super Bowl XXXVI.

    • 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.
