McDermott will be gone


Recommended Posts

I would almost bet the bank that McDermott is gone.   This is a passing league and McDermott is one of the better minds when it comes to defending those teams. 

 

His schemes are good and he makes great calls when they are needed most.  

 

His resume will show that he can build a defense that went from 28th to #1 in 3 seasons.   Pretty impressive.  If he gets and offensive coordinator that knows how to put points up.  He is going to win a lot of games.

 

I will not be surprised if we lose him, hope we don't but not counting on him being here next season.

Yes, because Hardy, Johnson, Edwards, Lotulelei, Short, Davis, and Kuechly have nothing to do with that.

 

Of course they have something to do with it.  Don't you think that he had input on getting some of this talent in?  He has used the tools made available to him.  But I have said since we got McDermott that once he has the players that fit his scheme he was going to be good. 

 

Do you think he won't assemble players that will fit his style.   The point is;  he built (with help from GM) a defense that #1.  Teams are going to see that.  They are going to believe he can build a team (offensively and defensively) based on what he did here.

If you want to talk about building a D, yea that's all Rivera. Scheming and planning, mostly Rivera with some McDermott input. On gameday, McDermott mostly choosing the playcalls with Rivera getting the final say. At least that's how I picture it. Rivera's defenses are always excellent no matter where he goes. Thus this logic. Rivera is a defensive minded HC. Thus this is Rivera's D.

I'd lose it if he took a job while the season was still on. Just what we need- him preparing his new team for next season while trying to close out a season here.

"Yeah Ron, I'll have some free time later, so I may swing down by the team office and start working up a gameplan."

Alright so the quotes hyperbole, but still.

    • I think that depends more on how high our pick is. If we have the 1st, 2nd or even 3rd pick i think we are drafting a QB rather than shopping FA market for a QB1. Curious if we’d be reluctant to start a rookie QB week 1 though. 
    • Hurney 2.0 and Fitts were so bad I don't know if it was intentional or they were that abysmally clueless. Fittershits panicked repeatedly being on the back end of positional runs while Hurney couldn't evaluate anyone outside of the 1st.  I can't figure out why Plummer still has a jersey. There's no reason. Dalton brings nothing to the table. If another QB gets cut that has given a glimmer of anything better than what we have, we should look, and that goes for every position.  I cant get over how much different this team could have been with a competent GM and having accepted the Rams offer for Burns. This franchise could have gone in a totally different direction. 
    • I thought tanking wasn't actually a thing and we were firmly against it though?
