Regime Change

Really anxious to see whom they might consider.
There's some good folks out there.

 

Jim Bob Cooter - Lions and recently Colts. Young offensive minded coach.

Something like that

If you ever see one

 

well all I can say is miracles do happen!

 

Lets hope no has beens. I hope we get somebody with fresh Ideas.

 

Houston's DC is one I've added to the books.

 

Here in lies the problem; such OCs are targeted by NFL Teams who go on to become Head Coaches. This has happened many times over the past five seasons. For that matter, should Klint Kubiak go, it will be interesting to see how Mike MacDonald will fare.


Long story short?! This is an Offensive Driven League. Have to score points, in numerous creative ways to win.

 

We shall see; same goes for New England. Buffalo is also not out of the question either though I like Denvers chances a lot more than Buffalo's. In addition, remember that Houstons Defense is hard carrying that team. New England and Buffalo both have great OCs combined with Great QBs.


Compare that to the rest of the NFL Playoff Teams remaining.

 

Hope. There is hope today....

 

Damn that was a close one

 

I think a trade for Mac Jones isn't out of the question... Especially if we hire Kubiak (who is a Shanahan guy). Malik Willis and Daniel Jones are FA's. I wouldn't mind Mac Jones as a short term bridge until we find the guy (or to let Howard develop into the guy). There's a world where some of the older players drop off the team as cap casualties and we walk into FA with like 85-90 million bucks (with restructures, we could head into it with around 100 million). Bring in an offensive guy and reshape the roster. I'm not convinced we're a bottom 5 team immediately. With a slew of good coaches and the right roster moves (and obviously a good draft), we could put ourselves in a really nice situation.

Kubiak is my #1 target for the cycle. I wouldn't hate Stefanski as a good option (he hires coordinators well and his offensive scheme would be well liked in Pittsburgh), but I think he's the only re-tread that I would entertain.

 

So will the Rooney rule hold sway?

 

Isn't Denver's defense top notch also?

 

Because we have history of keeping HC`s, we have best reputation and have the most sought after job opening.

 

That leader has to be from an Offensive Standpoint though. Therein lies the issue. If this were the 2000s, I'd agree with you that the best overall leader, regardless of affiliation, would be the best pick.


In today's NFL?! You need that dude from an Offensive Background. Mike Vrabel and DeMeco Ryans are outliers at present. Mike MacDonald has Klint Kubiak and, as such, I am reserving judgement on him.

 

I really hope that we don't try to hard because the draft is "at home".

Seems like a recipe for disaster to me. Just like drafting a QB because we need one and a guy went to college in the same town.

Honestly, if there isn't a legit QB prospect there when we pick in the first, I hope we trade picks this year for earlier picks next year.

Trying to rush a rebuild is a great way to screw it up IMO.

Go slow and don't be afraid of a few lean seasons.
