Good chance he gets this job.

- Shanahan tree
- NFL experience
- Limited ties to Eagles (in training camp)
- Coached with Sirianni in Indy

I have no idea if he's good or not but interesting if they would just bring in a guy with no OC experience and no play calling experience after how it went just hiring a guy with no OC or play calling experience 

F' it!  Bring in the Big Tuna!!

Rooney Rule is only for HC and senior FO jobs. 
 

Both of those options would suck for this team and keep us exactly where we were last season, or worse

No, it covers coordinators too

No. The Rooney Rule is also for coordinator positions as well. 

Nice! 

 

Those coordinators would still suck

Yeah I see it’s been updated they have to interview 1 for coordinators. 

I suspect Johnson is the front runner. He’s familiar with Nick and has experience with some quality offensive minds, including the Shanahan tree that’s sweeping the league. 

When’s the presser lol.

LITERALLY the entire team regressed. Siriani has 2 season where we passed to the middle of the field 9 & 11% of the time. That is absolutely atrocious. His answer for the blitz has to be the middle of the field. 
 

The running scheme and commitment regressed. The offensive scheme is stale. The defensive scheme is soft and stale. 
 

If the whole team regressed why is anyone even touching the idea of removing a top 10 QB? The dude responsible for 38 TDs can’t be where we look to improve lmao. 

I agree, the whole team is a mess and lots of players had problems. The amount of problems on the team points to the head coach and GM. The dysfunction and collapse worked its way to almost everyone. The entire team was frustrated and defeated by the whole mess.

That's why criticism of certain players like Jalen Carter, Blankenship and other young players is a hard to gauge because I want to see what the young guys look like with better coaching. Even veteran players regressed and were frustrated.

Thought I saw someone say it was 2pm et

Edit: it's at 2:30pm et

Jarrod Johnson might be a good OC some day but this team, at this moment, is not right for him. With players this team has on offense, this isn't the time to try to find a diamond in the rough and hope it works out. They don't need a guy who's going to come in and be Hurts best friend or to some test bed for his offense. By all accounts, Johnson has zero experience calling plays and has done nothing in terms of developing players. A lot of people are going to point to CJ Stroud and say Johnson deserves the credit for him being so good as a rookie. He might have a hand in that success, but Stroud is just a terrific QB. 

Bring Jarrod Johnson in as an Offensive Quality Control Coach or some other role, but please, not as OC.

I'm watching you!

I remember when Sirianni first got hired he was talking about what his approach would be to things when they aren't going well. He said something along the lines of "I learned from Frank Reich (drink) that the best approach is not to change anything. Don't change what got you there and don't panic, just execute" and blah blah blah. Similarly, he said before the last season how he doesn't feel the need to change anything and instead "get better at what we do".

Long story short, I have no idea what plan he pitched that inspired any kind of confidence, especially if those two quotes are a part of his core values. If Sirianni does what we wants it will probably be bad. If Lowie forces a major change to offensive philosophy, it will probably be bad.

First off who the F is Dan sileo. Up until a couple years ago never heard of the dude. Secondly how does that moron have a show. He’s constantly wrong and making up crap. 

Saban taught him that external noise from media and fans was "rat poison.”

Out of curiosity, who should be held responsible for the mess that the coaching staff is?   Is not that part of the GM's purview?   If not him, then who? 

Roseman just seems to be the Teflon Don.   He gets credit for the good moves, but the bad moves were just bad luck.   He gets credit for rebuilding the roster to get to the Super Bowl, but doesn't get held responsible when that roster crumbles immediately after.  He gets credit for finding a good coach... until that coach crumbles.   Then its just bad luck for Howie.  He gets credit for great cap management... until the cap issues catch up and he couldn't afford to retain the players that he let walk, and tried to replace with dollar store display items.

 

Howie is a top 10 GM in some aspects... and a bottom 10 GM in others.

I'll take a GM who can get us to the SB every five years, even if we implode afterwards.

1960, 1980, 2004, 2017, 2022.

It's hard to build a team that can get to the conference game, much less the SB.

Looks like Joe Thuney will be out for the Chiefs against the Ravens. Huge loss to their oline, especially against that defense. Let's go Ravens.

Honestly wouldn't mind someone new who hasn't called plays as long as they bring fresh ideas and can challenge Nick

Just curious but are you rooting for Ravens because of Taylor Swift?

There seems to be no perfect candidate for OC mentioned as of yet.

If Howie goes to Jarrod, then its them doubling down on "Siriani's offense" because those two are familiar with each other. And no play calling experience means Siri is going to have a ton of control over that as well. On the plus side- Shanahan offense. Motion. Maybe rely more on the run game. Easy quick passes for the QB.

If they go with someone like Kinsbury, then theyre doubling down on the college offenses for their limited QB. And, apparently staying away from pre-snap motion and such that fans are complaining about. I really love the list of names of QBs he has worked with and developed so there is some intrigue there. Also, air raid concepts have been spreading in the NFL so its not the same old stale option style college offense we are used to. It would be new. 

The guy from the Rams is quite nice in that he has the McVay system experience for 5 years. And is NOT familiar with Sirianni. Id add that me may have salvaged Wentz's career a bit. But again- no play calling experience.

 

Those are probably the 3 most interesting names. None are exactly what the fans are looking for.

Maybe that was Siri admitting that he made a mistake when he changed from what he did in Indy to try to make Hurts fit. In turn, the plan pitched to Lurie would be to go back to NFL style concepts.

Nope. I just hate Kermit, his wife, and his idiot brother.

I want Zac Robinson from the rams so he’s exactly what I’m looking for
