Question about coaching interviews

If he was smart instead of showing them the Panthers playbook which was designed to feature Newton, he would have designed plays for their respective quarterbacks. If you watch film of our offense you can get a good understanding of our playbook.

You do bring up a good point. Will Tampa Bay gain understanding of his philosophy and style of playcalling based on his interview there. And how much do these interviewees actually share with a divisional opponent. I wonder if Rivera and Hurney discuss that issue with him before he goes.

It looks like the Bucs have no intention of repeating their past hire (young, little experience). So, interviewing a young, possibly up and coming coordinator seems like it would be a waste of everyone's time and expense on the Bucs part.

So are they picking his brain to get ideas to help their QB and offense or are they learning something about a division rival? Does not look like he is a serious candidate for HC.

I'm sure the interview process is more about the problems that the Bucks are facing and not on any particular part of how the Panthers do things. Chud is one of the hot candidates now and to not bring him in would invite charges that they didn't look hard enough from a pretty upset fanbase right now. Sure it cost a plane ticket and a night or two at the hotel, but I'm sure they can spare it.

I also don't think Chud is ready for a HC position. He wasn't brought back for 2nd interview anywhere (the Jags thing was a typo) and hasn't impressed anybody as far as I could find. I'm hoping that by getting rejected a few times it will cool his heels. Chud will be a great HC in this league after he get's some more experience under his belt, but I think he's a few years from having the understanding he needs to make the transition.

The lack of HC positions he is filling...

The suggestion was that he was only being interviewed in order to pick his brain as a division rival and that they were not interested in considering him.

I don't find that to be a realistic scenario, do you?

That's a good point but I doubt they could learn anything that would result in a more-than-trivial advantage.

I doubt that Tampa would bring him in just to pick his brain but I think the reality is that they may pick up nuggets along the way they can use against the Panthers. Surely all of us have seen situations where a past coach of a team goes elsewhere and that coach always seems to do well against his former team. I would have to believe that it is surely possible that after picking a guys brain for hours dissecting his coaching style, philosophy, playcalling tendencies, etc you will learn something you can use against them when you play them twice a year. You don't think that if we played San Diego that Rivera would have an edge because he worked with Turner. Yeah I know 3 seasons is different than 4 hours but you get my point.

How would we know if he impressed or not?

I think Chudz went on the interviews because he was asked not because he was seeking.

There's a big difference between the 2.

I don't think Chudz was seeking a HC position this offseason.

    • I’ve rarely ever been more sure of anything than losing out — but how can anyone say with a straight face “Bryce hasn’t improved, but Canales has and he’s masks his flaws”. You have to be so out of touch with reality to put one way above the other when discussing those two. 
    • Last night was the classic example of a visiting team just holding on through the wave of emotion a home team has at the start of a big time game. Bama’s first two kickoff returns really set them back as far as playcalling and allowed OU to dictate field position. The emotion of the home crowd fed into what OU was doing at that point, and it felt like Bama would not be able to overcome that.     Once the kickoff returner was told to fair catch every kick, the game shifted, as Bama wasn’t starting each drive inside their own 15. It was then that Bama was able to make some plays, outscoring OU 34-7 the rest of the way.  I think the last 3/4 of the game proves Bama was the better team. OU was just able to ride the initial wave of emotion to a big lead, but Bama held on just enough.  However, had OU blocked the punt on Bama’s second drive and scored a TD (vice a FG on the ensuing drive), things likely would have been different.  Anyway, Roll Tide!
