I'm all for Bill Cowher without researching any other candidates. I wonder how hard it would be for us to switch to a 3-4.

Can't be that hard. Outside of Charles Johnson, is ther really anyone who you would be heartbroken if we didn't keep? Fuggin blow up the D-Line, and let's Extreme Makeover Football Edition that B.

Just to beat a dead horse with the 3-4 talk and considering the mood is bad around here...

I am not a defensive guru or claim to be...but would a combo of 52/59 on the inside of a 3-4 be most advantageous..it would get arguably are two best LB on the field together playing the inside. Lord knows we don't have any other pieces of a 3-4, but its interesting to think about considering the down turn this season has taken.

I would think we would need to beef up at NT and have larger outside linebackers.

EDIT: To answer the OP

GM: Polian, but he might be too old. Maybe Polian with a young gun to learn under him for a few years and then take over after he retires..maybe keep Polian as an advisor.

Coach: Would be excited for Cowher..only because he has HC specific experience.

Player: Depending where we are in the top ten. 9-10..I want a homer pick with S Eric Reid, LSU. Anything before..BPA on defense..being a corner of defensive lineman.

People like Cowher typically aren't the brilliant strategist types Rivera and his staff are. (Chuds brilliance at this point is fools gold I know)

While those "brilliant" strategist types typically don't have a strong fundamental focus.

Very rarely do coaches come along who do both well, and while i wasn't all the way on the bandwagon at the time-Harbaugh appears as if he may have indeed been one of those rarities.

I'm basically saying Cowher isn't the answer for those of you who didn't catch it.

While the college offense we run now is crap as a Base O, it'd be nice to incorporate it into our offense and I'm not sure Cowher is the type to do so. Also think the Coryell is the best possible offense Cam could be in.

So your looking for someone along similar limes that we have now, but has an actual grasp on preparation strategically and fundamentally, and game management, and no, the word stoic doesn't fit in anywhere into this.

    • I'm convinced Harden wants to do nothing but put up pretty shots and try to draw fouls and then do nothing on defense lol. Brunson went off though   
    • Baker was traded before he played his 5th year.  RGIII was cut before playing his 5th year. So it is rare but it happens. 
    • Time to hit 4000 yards and 30 TDs (including rushing). I don't care about INTs anymore. That's a big part of the problem. He plays uber conservative until the game is on the line. Playing not to lose, instead of playing to win. Time to let it friggin rip from the get. The team can win with a pick or 2 if he has 3-4 TDs. Stop playing scared.  But to be fair, his WRs have not been great. You all can bash about 1st round picks and O-line cap all you want.  Chuba as your #1 RB his entire career.  Adam Thielen as your best WR for 2 of 3 seasons is ridiculous. Then a rookie as your best in the 3rd season. Legette is not a 1st round talent. Probably closer to a 4th if you compare him to Brazzel this year. Coker has been a walking injury report. Nothing else to really speak of at WR or TE. Jimmy Horn has potential, but he is not an NFL starter yet. Oline has been better as run blockers than pass blockers. Ickey has always been so-so as a pass blocking LT. Center has been a revolving door for 3 years. Damien Lewis has been as marketed. Hunt is a great run blocker but an ok pass blocker - when healthy. Moton has been solid at RT. Biggest problem with the oline has been depth. When someone went down, their replacement became a glaring weakness. Overall a good but not great unit the last 2 years. 2023 was a ish show. Nothing else to say.  Not one game breaker, take it to the house offensive weapon since DJ Moore. Hopefully we get a little of that from Brazzell.  Either way, in his 4th season, it doesn't matter. You have to be able to overcome whatever comes your way. First 3 seasons with a young supporting cast is defendable. Can't use that anymore though. 3rd year in the offense. 3rd year with the same HC.
