I'd Hire Lovie Smith
-
According to Adam Schefter, Lovie Smith is the front runner for the Tampa Bay job.
Didn't even know Schiano got fired. Going to be a lot of openings to fill. The strong candidates have to be looking at Banner and Lombardi and no QB and saying "No fucking way".

--If we go back to a 4-3 defense after spending all that money on Bryant, Kruger at al, I'm going to shit.
-
All coaches mentioned so far would "more than likely" revert our defense back to a 4-3. And why not right? Maybe next year we can run a 5-2, nobody runs that...we'd be cool. Fuck this
I would rather run the 46. Plenty of talent up front to do it. Taylor and Rubin in the middle, Bryant and Winn on the egde, Ward, DQ, Kruger, and Mingo behind the line with Gipson roaming center field. We could pick up another edge rusher with all the picks we have. Leave Haden manned up and maybe pick up another physical corner. That defense would make all of our divison opponents shit in their pants.

Kruger and Sheard would be out in that scheme...not fast enough. If you're basically putting DL's on the edge...than extra pressure comes in the form of blitzes so that's when a kid like Mingo makes more sense. Kruger especially is too slow to be moving around in space.

Six open jobs as far as I can tell:
Browns
Bucs
Lions
Redskins
Texans
Vikings
Any others? I seem to recall Jason Garrett being told that another 8-8 season would see him fired, so maybe there's something there.

Bryant can easily switch to a 4-3 DE all things "healthy", which I don't know right now. Kruger is also theoretically a hybrid anyway and probably does his best work with his hand in the ground...so he can be a 4-3 DE easily as well. But yeah I get what you're saying...it's another switch and shoehorning guys into new roles is not what we should be doing EVERY GOT DAMN MOTHER FUCKING YEAR omg...omfg I'm getting mad just saying that to myself.

Garret "might" get 5 wins next year if he comes to Cleveland which apparently isn't close to good enough so fuck it and put him on the ex's payroll.

Wasn't suggesting we go after him at all! Just saying he might go.

I had to go back and reread the 46, i remember the Bears ran it way back but couldn't remember exactly what it entailed. But no, no we can't run a 46. "Maybe" if we had Seattles corners. Maybe. Currently, omg our secondary would get would get tracked.

Why would a coach the caliber of Lovie Smith want to come here and be a fucking sock puppet with Banner and Lombardi's hands so far up his ass?
He fucking wouldn't.
We're in the same situation we were with that fat fucking walrus in charge. We're getting a Shurmur quality coach. Fuck this front office. I refuse to support this team in any way if McDaniels is the next hire.
because he'll get paid that's why.
because he'll get paid that's why.
There are only 32 of these jobs.....and they pay 4-8 million dollars a year.
Chud is getting like 10 million to go away.
THAT is why he would take this job.
Boom. Told. The guy has a knockout résumé and a shit ton of money from his previous coaching gig. He doesn't give a shit about the money, he wants to go to a winner. There were about 6 other vacancies, unsurprisingly he didn't end up here.
So, I ask the question again - Why would anyone with any premier talent want to come here and be a sock puppet with Lombardi and Banner's hands up their ass?
The best we can do is McDaniels at this point because the Banner, Lombardi and their cronyism. I can't fucking wait for the guy who ran off Cutler and Marshall for Orton and Tebow to be our next head coach. I'm sick of these Belichick castoffs being put in charge of a team. It just doesn't work.
Mangini - Garbage. Failed in New York and Cleveland.
Crennel - Garbage. Failed in Cleveland and Kansas City.
McDaniels - Garbage. Drafted Tim Tebow. Denver fucking hates this guy. His former players fucking hate him.
Savage - Garbage. Failed in Cleveland by spending too much money in FA.
Pioli - Garbage. Failed in Kansas City by picking up failures from the 2007-2009 Cleveland Browns.
Schwartz - Garbage. Failed in Detroit. Immature idiot who wastes away the talent of who was once the best WR in the league.
These guys only ever succeeded in supporting roles. They won't amount to shit as a head coach.
Haslam is going to go to prison, McDaniels is going to lead us to another 5-win season, and all the talent we've accrued will leave in free agency at the end of 2014. The list of players with expiring contracts includes the following:
Haden, Rubin, Taylor, Sheard, Groves, Cameron, Skrine, Gipson
We might be able to make up for it with all the draft picks we have, but that would require us to hit on at least 70% of them. Lombardi's first draft isn't looking so hot right now. Oh yeah, Alex Mack is as good as gone.
Fuck this front office. Fuck them so much.
-
rather be under the Parcells/Belichick coaching tree than that of holmgren.
you want to blame anyone with this season blame it on that fat fuck from green bay/seattle. ruined 2 franchises for decades within 5 years.
meanwhile he'ssitting on his yacht sippin pina colodas.
hate the FO under jimmy too. but what ya gonna do when the man that signs the checks is still in your corner?

Smith is off the board.
A Buccaneer.

Maybe Belichick himself is garbage. If not for having Tom Brady as his QB, can anyone really say he could win they way he has?

Believe me, I have a ton of hate for that fat walrus. Up until last week, the only person I hated more was Art Modell. Well, Banner and Lombardi are moving into that second position because they're putting us in literally the same position that Holmgren did when he was in charge. We're setting up for another 3 years of failure, and we're going to be stuck with another Pat Shurmur. We deserve so much better than the three stooges.
Maybe Belichick himself is garbage. If not for having Tom Brady as his QB, can anyone really say he could win they way he has?
I don't think so. They had 7 playoff appearances under Bledsoe, and still looked respectable with Cassel under center.

Those playoff appearances with Bledsoe were not with Belichick as HC (it was with Parcells) But let's look at his record:
Cleveland: :
1991 6-10 Kosar primary QB....
1992 7-9 Mike Tomscak primary QB
1993 7-9 Vinny Testaverde primary QB
1994 11-5 Vinny Testaverde primary QB
1995 5-11 Vinny Testaverde primary QB
New England
2000 5-11 Drew Bledsoe primary QB
2001 11-5 Tom Brady primary QB
2002 9-7 Brady
2003 14-2 Brady
2004 14-2 Brady
2005 10-6 Brady
2006 12-4 Brady
2007 16-0 Brady
2008 11-5 Cassell
2009 10-6 Brady
201o 14-2 Brady
2011 13-3 Brady
2012 12-4 Brady
1013 12-4 Brady
Bold means no playoffs.
With Brady at QB BB is 12-0 in terms of winning vs. losing seasons.
Without Brady BB is 2-5 in terms of losing seasons.
(and by the way, the QBs he had in his losing seasons were not complete slouches: Kosar/Testaverde/Tomscak/Bledsoe)
BBs teams only ever made the playoffs one time when he did not have Tom Brady at QB: 1994 with the Browns and Vinny.
So, is it the coach or the QB. This trends toward it being the QB.
ONLY in 2002 was Brady the QB of his team and it not make the playoffs.
