NOTW Posted January 12, 2021 Share Posted January 12, 2021 2 hours ago, jblah said: you know...now i'm leaning Lincoln Riley. If you look at the mess with Howie, it looks like Howie has a lot of respect from Lincoln based on what has been reported. Perhaps Howie will let Lincoln do his job for once if he actually comes in. Duce on the other hand would get the same treatment as Doug. Well it's interesting the "relationship" that was reported earlier. But they also probably talk to lots of college coaches and personnel to do their research on players. But "if" they really want to go with Lincoln and reunite him with his QB it would be similar to Chip Kelly getting control of the type of players and scheme he wants and Howie getting them for him...Lurie wants an innovative, elite offense. If Riley sold a plan to use Hurts and other talent to do that, he might instruct Howie to get whatever players he wants. Who knows, it's hard to say who really calls the shots. Apparently Lurie wanted JJAW? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently Lurie wanted JJAW? its all hard to know who wanted what. I think the main thing is, if you are going to hire a head coach and then have to micromanage them, then its not worth hiring that head coach. If you hire the guy, trust him to get the job done and back away. let his own actions speak for his credentials and if you don't like the direction he is going get rid of him and get another guy. I have no problem that they got rid of Doug. if he didn't see eye to eye thats fine. Where i have a problem with is them telling him which coaches he should hire or who he should fire. if you are going to do that, then you should have fired doug a while back already.

Very well could be. always lots of rumors and unnamed "sources" around the team. We do know that Doug said he was going to retain Groh and Walch last year, then literally 1 day later they announced both were fired. We do know Doug wanted out because he wanted to hire his own coaches and Lurie had "a different vision." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thing3 Posted January 12, 2021 Share Posted January 12, 2021 I really see Duce being the next HC. Not necessarily my pick but he's respected by players and the general fan base. As optics go it's a safe feel good pick. He could bring some level of stability to the rebuilding process that Lurie seems to want to go through. I just think when you look at the big picture Duce checks a lot of boxes Lurie might be looking for right now. Lurie obviously wants a yes man that will roll with his plan for the future. That plan seems to be to get younger and shed cap first instead of looking for success in the year(s) to come. I don't think the priority for Lurie and Roseman, at this time, is getting the best HC but getting a HC that shares their vision. Once the pieces are in place Duce will either be successful and remain or will be the next fall guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they pick a strong willed guy who challenges Howie when necessary then most rumors are wrong. If they hire a Coach as soft as a PAC-12 CB who won't disagree with anything, then we're in NFL hell, because nothing will change for the better. 1 minute ago, EazyEaglez said: Saw a report they are looking to interview Todd Bowles.
