wilco_holland Posted January 5, 2017 Share Posted January 5, 2017 So we let the new DC bring his own staff or Jay fills it? Interesting development. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evmiii Posted January 5, 2017 Share Posted January 5, 2017 I love the fact that he fired the entire staff; Any D.C. worth his weight will want to build his own staff. I feel better about the skins today than I did yesterday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jadams5214 Posted January 5, 2017 Share Posted January 5, 2017 Love the rip the entire band-aid off at once approach. Start over with a new staff and hopefully lots of new players. So many keep calling for Wade Phillips seem to forget that Jay didn't have interest in him before so why would that change now? And Wade likely harbors hard feelings for the Skins not making a run at him before especially given his son being a coach on the team. One thing is for sure - no matter who the new DC is he can't possibly do much worse than Joe Barry so there is plenty of reason for optimism...

Garcon More Wine Posted January 5, 2017 Share Posted January 5, 2017 best news of the year. barry was completely inept and the reports of the secondary issues in the meeting room are just more evidence that this staff needed to go. hopefully we get a proven DC in here that knows what hes doing and can make it happen for us so were not relying on the offense every week.

Continuing to not have interest in a guy who just about single handedly won his team the superbowl would be a bad move for Jay. It's business, lots of people say lots of things and have lots of feelings. That all changes when numbers get written down at contract negotiations.

Skinsinparadise Posted January 5, 2017 Share Posted January 5, 2017 Grant Paulsen @granthpaulsen 14s14 seconds ago Joe Barry wasn't given a lot of talent to coach but didn't get a ton out of what he had.

zCommander Posted January 5, 2017 Share Posted January 5, 2017 I am really beside myself. I really wanted Barry back next year with infusion of better talent. It is indeed a sad day.

I feel better about the skins today than I did yesterday. Totally agree. But the fact that he fired the entire defensive staff makes you wonder if Jay is set on bringing in a more experienced DC. I think a more experienced DC already has a team of guys who they would want to bring with them, whereas an inexperienced guy might have taken the DC position and possibly retained some of current staff. In any case, Jay deserves a lot of respect for making the change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skinsinparadise Posted January 5, 2017 Share Posted January 5, 2017 I won an auction about 7 weeks ago to have lunch with Scot Mccloughan. Manusky came over to our table, introduced himself, really cool guy, a lot of personality. Scot goes to me he's a really good coach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drowland Posted January 5, 2017 Share Posted January 5, 2017 5 minutes ago, TankRizzo said: Wade also just won his last HC a Superbowl. Jay is in year 3 of a 5 year deal. It's sink or swim time for him. Wade could be his lifevest. That's another thing, would Wade want to come here knowing Jay in year 4 is pretty much on the hot seat? Jay's coaching for an extension next year since HC's rarely go into the final year of their contract as a lame duck. I think he'll stay in Denver unless the new guy is adamant on bringing in his own guy. I read somewhere Bradley is rumored to be the DC for another HC candidate. Not sure if it's Kyle or someone else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
