tim lewis may leave for GB

[carpanfan96]

Tim Lewis is interested in the GB Defensive coordinator position and may be interviewing for it, he was interviewed in 06 for the Head coach position in GB but lost out to McCarthy. he also has ties to GB as that is where he played his brief nfl career.

A couple of links to the information

or another possibility is to let him become the DC here and get rid of trgovac.

I don't know if this is good or bad news. If he leaves, Fox might just promote another, even more incoherent bumbling moron for secondary coach.

Fox and Trgovac in a conversation:

JF: Hey Mike!

MT: Huh?

JF: So Tim Lewis might be going to Green Bay.

MT: Uh, ok.

JF: I've decided to make you Defensive coordinator\Secondary coach\Asst. head coach. Can you handle that?

MT: Um, yup.

JF: Great! got any questions?

MT: Uh, yeah. What's the secondary???

The article indicates Lewis is itching to be a coordinator again.

If he doesn't get the Packer job, and the job comes open here...

I know that's the route they would go, but they shouldn't.

He had some terrible defenses in New York in his years there. Oh, and just look at this wiki I pulled up of him...

Despite his aggressive defensive schemes during his time in Pittsburgh, Lewis reverted to soft defense in his last two years in Pittsburgh and while in New York. Sam Madison, best known for his play as a man to man coverage cornerback, has been dropped back into zone on defense. Another player in the New York Giants defensive unit, Lavar Arrington, has also been dropped back into zone coverage time and time again, despite the fact that his three Pro Bowl seasons in Washington came while Arrington was being sent in on blitzes. Lewis' soft defensive schemes, including a diminished use of blitzing, led to unpopularity among several New York Giants faithful. This is despite his being considered a head coaching candidate by other teams before the 2006 season.[1] The New York Giants defense in 2006 finished 25th overall, 28th against the pass and 14th against the run, as the team barely made the playoffs at 8-8. He was fired on January 11, 2007.

He'd just be another turdovac.

[Mr. Scot]

He'd just be another turdovac.

That notion deters you and me.

But does it deter John Fox? :confused:

Interesting quote:

Lewis and other members of John Fox's staff in Carolina have two-year extensions to return. But the Panthers also have given their coaches clearance now to seek other jobs.

My money's on "no".

unfortunately.

Interesting quote:

I think that's just a general policy, not something specific to this year.

Yea def a vote on the unfortunate side there, but we could hope he reverted to his early days at pitt. right?

Hopefully if trgovac does leave we don't promote lewis.

[Mr. Scot]

Maybe if we start a "Herm" chant? Or how about a "bump till we hire Edwards (or McDermott...or McGinnis)" thread? There's that

(or maybe we should just sit here and brace for disappointment)

I'd say unfortunately we should just sit here and brace for disappointment....but that doesn't mean we can't hope for the best.

[Mr. Scot]

I hate silly "if we don't cut/fire/bench so and so I'll stop being a fan" tantrums.

That said, I have to admit it would be really tough to watch another year of Mike Trgovac coached defense.
