    True, but in Tomlin's entire tenure, we've never had a coaching staff like that, so I doubt it'll change.

    I don't want retreads if Tomlin leaves; I want a really good young offensive coach who isn't afraid to surround himself with top-notch assistants, but of course, that's hard to find sometimes.

    i'm sticking with matching up proven minds with the players we have. sure there will be a change here and there but the 3 i quoted have been proven to know the game. as OC and QB coach guden wouldn't have to worry about anything else but howard and the offense. that's his strength. matt patricia would have to worry about the defense again his strength and nothing else. mike munchak would worry about the offensive line and nothing else. all proven and very good at what they would be asked to do. i want a head coach that would let them cook not try to change what these guys know. i want a guy to surround himself with talented coaching and not make it a power struggle. just a guy to make it work together. get a super star staff and not worry about a superstar player here and there. these guys will make the players better. :cool:

    When did we get a HOF caliber Head Coach? I hope you're not referring to Tomlin. Yuck.

    We don't have a viable number two receiver and no long term solution at QB and the defense is getting long in the tooth. The days of next man up and not missing a beat are long gone.

    We have some future on defense that are not long in the tooth. The D-line is on a first contract except heyward. Holcomb, queen,wilson are all under 30. Herbig, Sawyer are young. Jpj, pierre, echols, kent, porter, jamison, castro, dugger, samuel, are all well under 30. Many backups are young. The staff, MT, won't or doesn't put them in position to succeed. He doesn't trust them enough. That's a tomlin problem. I keep saying he likes gets because he doesn't have to coach them. He coaches players instead of football.

    I do believe will howard can be the long term answer. Skylar could be a long term answer too. These young players have to be coached. This staff coaches last to me. :cool:
