JayEcho Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 as important as this hire is... it pales in comparison to who his staff is gonna be. football is of course a team sport and the hc does not do it on his own. looking to see how the coaching staff fills out. p.s. bonus points if wentz absolutely HATES his new qb coach. no more buddy buddy for him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Besides that they need to make sure Sirianni knows exactly what to say at the press conference. They may even want to wait until Nick's Wentz fathead wall sticker get delivered.

ShutDownDB Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 32 minutes ago, Outlaw said: Howie by all accounts was the McDaniels advocate. Could this hiring of Nick be the first sign of Howie's power starting to slip? Sirianni being the guy feels like a Jeff Lurie hire to get his very expensive QB back on track.

BayAreaLennie Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 Thanks for posting those Twitter messages - that is what I was looking for. Kind of underwhelming evidence, but it is what it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howie FEARS strong men who will fight him tooth and nail. The press has you believe it was LURIE who wasn't sure. The truth is more like Lurie wanted him, but Howie weaseled his way out of having a strong man over him again and talked Lurie out of it. Think about it. The media is full of shi*.

Lurie said in his press conference after parting ways with Pederson that it is Lurie that runs the head coaching searches. It is and always has been Lurie's decision to make. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The best part of this hire might be that Howie didn’t get his way. The worst part might be Wentz and Lurie on the same page.

Talonblood Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 49 minutes ago, Procus said: What makes you think the HC and Howie aren't on the same page with this. One of the things the team was impressed with was Sirianni's choices for his staff. Note aside - the staff that the FO assembled for Dougie won a SB. Dougie dropped the ball in replacing coaches who were poached by other teams. Suuuurrrreeee. They hired a young, unknown puppet they can do as the wish with. Howie was afraid of a strong man like mcDaniel. Period. He isn't afraid of their new soft hire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They had it backward. Think about it. Lurie was ok with it, but Howie talked him out of it because McDaniel is a strong man/strong personality and wanted some control. Howie FEARS kind of man. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was going off the assumption that Howie was the driving force behind McDaniels. However now that I think about it, didn't Lurie try to buy the Pats and is from around that area?

As for Nick, seems as though he was a standout WR at Mount Union, they won 3 Division 3 titles when he was there. I guess they don't have Italians in Virginia, do they? Why don't you make the trek up to South Philly and tell a few of the locals there that joke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
