I’m not sold on those lions assistants. Dan Campbell is what makes that team go.

 

He's the leader type but the assistants are the driving the xs and os

Totally get that.

But…as Julien Edelman said…”we worked for Belachick…we played for Tom”.

X and Os don’t matter if the team isn’t motivated.

Ben might be great. Who knows.

The more I look into and think about it, the more I want Bobby Slowik as our coach.  What I thought about was Dan Quinn, he was hired in atlanta and looked amazing early, but what made him successful was having a good Offensive Coordinator, that OC was Kyle Shannahan.  After he left, Dan Quinn began his downfall.

A comparable situation is Demeco Ryans.  Would the Texans be where they were without that impressive offense?  I think Slowik is a high flying up and comer coming from the Shanahan coaching tree.  One other benefit is that he and the Texans had plans around if Bryce would fall to them at 2 meaning to me he had some sort of plan for Bryce should he have been Houstons QB.  Also he'd be 36, so basically the same age as Kyle was when he got the SF job.  Pair him with Evero and lets roll.

Isn’t there some rule that you can’t talk to coaches until like January 24 or something? Basically we’re probably a ways away from getting any sort of substantial news regarding this hiring cycle

Nothing. He's just a bit too "tin foil hat" for the mainstream to take so McAfee's bosses (aka Disney) said stop having him on your show.

lmao I just read up on it. McAfee sold his soul to ESPN. He has nobody to blame but himself. These guys can't talk like they normally talk on a company owned by Disney.

 

Never understood why these big time podcast personalities go to ESPN. Same thing with Shannon Sharpe. Bro just build your own company stop chasing a quick bag.

Yup. Pat could easily have a very successful national radio show, podcast like Rogan, and do guest spots all over. He even gets bank from WWE. But no ... he takes his "brash" personality to Disney lol. I know they pay well, but come on. You have to hold back every second in your dorky little tank top while you stand the entire show.

Lebatard said something similar about famous podcasters on espn. Eventually they will tell espn to fly a kite, like his show did. Although, my favorite part about the lebatard show on espn was that they were the rage against the machine, in the machine.

Slowik is my choice too after investigating all the candidates

    • He made some excellent throws but he always has made some excellent throws here and there. I don't know what to think, which is what I was apprehensive about. Is he going to have a decent downfield game? Because okay Legette dropped one, but someone was giving stats prior to the bye or during it where he had two downfield completions and one of them was the jump ball that is just launched and fingers are crossed that our guy comes down with it, and yesterday we saw that again. The Russell Wilson school of downfield passing.  I don't feel like that is sustainable, but at the same time you have to do Something to make the defense understand they have to defend that downfield throws. Like i said, confused.  I guess I'm going to review the game for myself and look closely at his mechanics and stuff because if he actually fixed that stuff it explains the better throws. And that has been my biggest objection, or what I see as the thing that makes or breaks his chances, that unorthodox dropback and tippy toe action and not having his feet set which limits velocity etc etc. 
    • The negative Nancy in me (or objective?) says that they had a bye week to prepare for the Chiefs. However, it’s one thing to have a good plan and it’s another to actually execute it. For all the flack he’s received (from me as well), Bryce seemingly has put his head down and worked his tail off and his play is giving me hope. The first 18-game Bryce showed no progression whatsoever. He gets benched, comes back, and has shown steady progress every week he has started. I think I’m starting to see what the Bryce lovers and unconditional defenders were saying all along, and I hope he can show that on a regular basis for the sake of our QB1 position. 
    • Yeah, we could still very well end up 4-13 with the 2nd pick.   I think LVR has the inside track for 1, with only a JAX team as a team on docket that could be beatable.
