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.

    • It is like when you go to da buffet at da Golden Corral and dey have all dis food and you get the same thing every time.   There is probably something you would like more, but you go to da same ol racks and get da same ol food every time.  Not sure why I am writing in trailer park dialect, but hey, watcha gonna dooo.
    • If we don't go OT, we will regret it.  What bothers me?  Are we going to get a starting-caliber OT at 19?  I think the draft is solid at OT, and the more I read up and watch video, the more I watch Lomu, the more I want him.   I see Freeling as a RT who needs some work in run blocking (since we need to run first, maybe not a good fit) and I see Proctor ending up as a Guard.  After Lomu (assuming Mouigia and fanu are gone), I think we wait until round 2.  In round 2, there are about 3-4 I like (Zuhn--good pass blocker and VERY underrated right now; Tiernan is a very good pass blocker as is Miller from Clemson, but both are not good in the run game.  Max Ixxxxx from Ariz St is impressive too---technically, there is not a of difference in these second tier guys--good in pass pro, need work in the run game.   If we wait until round 2 for an OT, we probably need to sign Nijman and start him early.   I almost think this is what we should do if Lomu is gone.  There is a big dropoff after him, imo, and I think we'd get better value if a stud ILB or edge is there.  Someone like TJ Parker Clemson makes sense. If Lomu is gone, trading back might be the play.
