WilberMarshall Posted January 31 Share Posted January 31 With this ownership group, I will trust the process. They got the most important component of the structure, the GM. I trust him to get the right guy and the right coaching staff. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You would think BB is loving the #2 pick to get his own QB to quiet the doubters? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VaK9Trainer Posted January 31 Share Posted January 31 Something feels very off that there hasnt been any announcement yet. Either they are in complete panic mode as No One wants to come here or they are about to shock us all with someone fantastic that no one has even thought about.

Conn Posted January 31 Share Posted January 31 2 hours ago, Skinsinparadise said: Fans don't like coaches generally on the 2nd stint. I am not arguing otherwise. I am talking about league insiders, personnel guys from other teams. Stuff that has been posted on this thread to death. I'll just say if people think this FO is blowing it. I can't see how anyone is sticking with Peters. I'd bail now if I thought he was being won over by a clown potential head coach. I don’t see a disconnect, personally. I think Peters can be a great GM. But I’m most excited about his reputation as a talent evaluator. His ability to (hopefully) built a roster. I have zero information about him that leads me to believe that if you put him (a green GM) in a room with a new owner who has only been around Mike Tomlin, a basketball guy, and Spielman—I have no reason to believe that this experienced and well-meaning group couldn’t fall for the wrong type of candidate because they’re overvaluing the attributes they’ve decided are most important to them. It could happen. Wouldn’t mean I’m out on Peters at all. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sinews Posted January 31 Share Posted January 31 A Belichick hire would be just asking for a power struggle down the line, just seems like our FO structure is deliberately set up to avoid that confrontation with a HC. Whatever BB said on his way out of NE probably doesn't hold up over the long term, he'll revert to old ways and wanting as much control as possible. Not saying he can't coach or wasn't a good coach, just don't see it here is all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlyBigBeard Posted January 31 Share Posted January 31 Let's get Tanner Engstrand from the lions in for an interview, kick the tires on him. See if he has the aptitude to be a HC, let's get new blood and not try to polish a turd with Quinn or any other candidate that's been a head coach. You can polish a turd till you see your reflection, but in the end of the day is still a turd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ball Security Posted January 31 Share Posted January 31 If it is Quinn, I’m looking at names that have connections that could fill out his offensive staff: Klint Kubiak - OC (connected to Speilman and Peters) Justin Outten - TEs or RBs (coached under Quinn in Atl, coached with Kubiak in Denver) Klay Kubiak - QB coach Luke Getsy - Passing game coordinator (coached with Outten) James Gregg - OL (connected via SF) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those two points are worth due consideration but they hardly justify the conclusion that he's some low value coaching option. 1 hour ago, Andre The Giant said: Totally agree with this. Whoever hires BB will be getting a guy who's particularly motivated to prove it wasn't just Brady. He can be motivated all he wants, motivation won't yield the results he's looking for. Brady or no Brady, his record speaks for itself: HC Browns & Patriots without Brady: 82-97 HC of the Patriots without Brady: 47-57 HC of the Patriots with Brady: 219-64 I agree that a conclusion can't be reached on record alone. But, he had nearly complete control of that team so there's nobody else to point fingers at. Not to mention the play on the field was, at best, lackluster. Is that due to rotating OCs & DCs?...possibly. But a head coach that's worth the praise should be able to coach through one player leaving and periodically repetitive Coordinators who test the waters as HCs. I'd rather go with EB than BB. I'd be in favor of some suggestions of AI-guided HC decisions over BB. BB will not win another Super Bowl. Period. This is all probably moot anyway as BB would want more control than Peters will give him. Edited January 31 by slappy434 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I liken the lack of interest in Bill to the likes of when guys like Kaep, Cam, even Griffin were clearly more talented options than a lot of guys that had contracts. The juice isn’t worth the squeeze. Yes, likely a better coach than many others, but do you want everything else that comes with it? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
