Ball Security Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 Kind of wild that it’s likely there will be more defensive HC hires than offensive in 2024. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jericho Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 1 hour ago, Ball Security said: Kind of wild that it’s likely there will be more defensive HC hires than offensive in 2024. Maybe. You got Mayo and Pierce and likely Belichick on the defensive side. Johnson and Harbaugh likely on the offensive side. Carolina probably goes offense too and I doubt it gets either Johnson or Harbaugh. Then you need the last two spots (probably Seattle and Tennessee) to both go defense. Possible and I get that many of the "name" candidates left are defensive guys (Morris, Glenn, Vrabel, Quinn), but there are usually some surprises too. I wish Antonio Pierce well, but the Raiders hiring the coach before the GM and basically sticking with the interim guy based on half a season is questionable logic. To some extent, they backed themselves into a corner based on how Pierce finished the season and won over the locker room. But I have serious concerns how well that hold up and how much Pierce is actually a great coach or simply not Josh McDaniels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL 😆 lol, I am burnt out some by this head coaching discussion let alone guessing who the defensive coordinators would be for hypothetical HCs. I got no idea who he's close with on the defensive side. If its purely playing the game of association than it would be someone from Miami when he was there or Detriot now -- but the Miami coordinator from that time runs the Texans defense. Maybe John Fox who is an assistant with Detriot? He's a bit old, though. I'd guess its someone who has been let go in these coaching purges. Not every hire is a an association game. We have had two coaches -- Jay but much more so Ron who liked to hire people he's coached with before but not every HC plays it so religiously.

Est.1974 Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 Could we also bring in Aaron Glenn from Detroit to be our DC with the additional title of assistant HC ??? Assuming we go the Johnson route… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

markmills67 Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 Both Harbaugh and Vrabel have been available for weeks to interview, we haven't interviewed either so does this mean we aren't interested in them as our HC?. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Est.1974 Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 I’d also add that whilst we will clearly aim to recruit the best, Harris was very keen to stress that both he and Peters want to create a diverse organisation, I don’t think our minority interviews are necessarily just a tick in the box exercise that many think.

McDonald's defense is nasty and will help carry the Ravens to the Super Bowl. If he's the hire, I'm okay with it for sure. I'd love an offensive HC, but I'll make an exception for Mickey D (nickname patent pending*) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HTTRDynasty Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 Mike Macdonald as HC with Klint Kubiak at OC would be intriguing… 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DWinzit Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 Those Ravens defensive stats for MacDonald are incredible compared to how poor the JDR defense was run. I feel like whoever is the new HC, the LB's will be finally addressed. How the hell did a LB HC and DC so ignore the position in the center of their D? 🤮 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RWJ Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 5 hours ago, Panninho said: We got to go the Ravens route and hire current Michigan DC Jesse Minter. 😬 True that! I've thought about Jesse but it's very possible that Jim Harbaugh will poach him from Michigan when/if he gets hired by an NFL team. Mike MacDonald sure seems to be the best option when we stop and think about what he has done to all the opposing OCs he has faced that we have interviewed or will. Adam Peters can help him find the perfect OC to groom Maye. MacDonald is young but he is a leader. He has shown and proven that. Baltimore wins the Super Bowl this year. Will Peters and Harris wait on him. We will know once Detroit is eliminated from contention whether it be this week, next week or the Super Bowl. Let it be the Super Bowl.

I've thought and SIP, MacDonald has beaten every one of the OCs we have or will interview. To me, he is the guy. Peters can find him an OC to groom Maye. To me, he is the leader of this team. Young but look what he has done with this team. Sure he has good players but Adam Peters can build the roster to win like he did in SF. I like Raheem too and I'm still in on Johnson too. It's a hard decision! Right now and after watching and seeing what MacDonald has done, I have it this way. MacDonald, 1st, Johnson 2nd, Raheem 3rd. Baltimore wins the Super Bowl and it might be against Detroit. I hope it is Baltimore vs. Detroit in the SB. 59 minutes ago, DWinzit said: Those Ravens defensive stats for MacDonald are incredible compared to how poor the JDR defense was run.

My guess is less than decent coaching and staff and poor drafting. Just a guess. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rumplestilskin Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 I am wondering if Adam Peters is still involved at this point with his previous employer as it is still inseason for them? Will he get a superbowl ring if the 49ers win the SuperBowl? Or does he cut all ties once he was hired? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm 99% sure they will opt to give him a ring since he was a major part in constructing their roster. Edited January 21 by spjunkies 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McDonald 1 and Johnson 2....all else doesn't matter to me, I was huge on Slowik but after yesterday their offense only managed 3 points the other 7 was ex Redskins Steven Sims Punt return for TD...Slowik and Texans need another season or 2 then go from there. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once he signed on the dotted line for our 5 year deal he went to work for Harris. 39 minutes ago, ThatNFLChick said: He was supposed to meet with us and maybe he still does but he needs another year, I think.
