I have no interest in Andy Reid.

West Coast Offense would not fit Newton at all.

Reid's system may not be such a bad thing for Newton. Also remember that Mcnabb threw a lot of down field stuff and it would also incorporate the screen passes that we have all been screaming for.

Till we know who the GM is, it's hard to say much of anything.

Tom Gamble might like a WCO coach, but his connection to Bill Polian makes me think he's a long shot here (Jags and Jets pursuing him).

The Giants run a conventional offense, so I wouldn't necessarily expect Ross or Gettleman to go West Coast.

That, plus Reid is used to having personnel control. That's not likely to happen here.

And word is that Reid wants to be back on the west coast anyway (though the Chargers said no).

Reid in Arizona might make sense. Maybe he'd believe he could rebuild Kevin Kolb.

Yeah I completely agree with you. I also heard Lovie Smith has a lot of interest in the Cardinals also.

Cam's a way better long passer than short passer.

The WCO is short pass heavy. Coryall has more emphasis on the long ball.

Rivera or not, I'd much rather stick with a Coryell offense for Newton.

I agree with your assessment but it can't be understated Reid's ability to maximize the potential of his QB's see Mcnabb, Kolb, Garcia. The man is very good with young QBs.

Adam Schefter 11 minutes ago. "Rivera to meet with Jerry Richardson to discuss his future." Hmm, so does that mean today?

No, it doesn't mean it's today. He's just repeating what Rivera already said.

As has been mentioned, Richardson isn't in town.

(hopefully, he's in New York)

Cardinals fired Russ Grimm too.

He's a guy I'd love to have as an OL coach (Juan Castillo would be good too) but I don't know that Matsko is in any danger if Rivera stays.

Looks like the Raiders are firing half their coaching staff, but Dennis Allen is apparently safe.

      PFF Best Rookies so far: Two Panthers

      By mav1234 · Posted

      Saw this show up in my new feed. Nice to see a couple of our rookies making it into the top 5 so far, even if it is a pff measure... From https://www.pff.com/news/nfl-top-15-rookies-week-9-2025 ... 4. TE Mitchell Evans, Carolina Panthers (78.7) Evans struggled in the Panthers’ tight win over the Packers, finishing with a 41.8 PFF overall grade — third worst among tight ends this week. He was not targeted in the game and played only one snap in pass protection. He did log 15 run-blocking snaps, and although he earned a 68.9 PFF run-blocking grade in zone looks (seven snaps), his 39.0 mark in gap schemes (second worst for the week) dragged him down to a 46.6 PFF run-blocking grade overall — sixth worst for the week. Despite seeing zero targets over his past two games, Evans still leads the Carolina tight end group with a 74.3 PFF receiving grade. He has caught all nine of his targets for 90 yards, six first downs and two touchdowns. Evans also leads the Panthers’ tight end group in PFF run-blocking grade (72.2). He has recorded a 20.5% positive play rate across 175 snaps.  5. WR Tetairoa McMillan, Carolina Panthers (78.6) McMillan had a better day against the Packers, recording four catches for 46 yards. Most of that production came in the first quarter via two 16-yard catches — one of which he snatched from Carrington Valentine’s hands, who was in perfect position to break up the pass. McMillan accounted for three first downs on the day, although Green Bay was able to limit his impact after the catch, holding him to 0.8 yards after the catch per reception. McMillan now has 41 catches for 558 yards — a top-15 mark. He is also tied for second with 19 explosive gains of 15-plus yards. Three of McMillan’s catches against the Packers came between the numbers, bringing him to 22 for 318 yards and 19 first downs (tied for second most) this season. He owns a 26.1% threat rate and a 76.6 PFF receiving grade between the numbers. He also ranks in the top 10 in explosive gains (10) and yards after the catch per reception (5.5) within that area of the field.
