cougar head imho

I would love to dick punch skip

I think we should be able to out score them. Also I hoping to unleash a 2-headed run game. Get TG30 his magical 17 touches and give CJ Anderson 10-13 touches mainly the short yardage type. This will give our OL an edge they want. Their CBs can’t hang w/ our WRs so focus on a truly balance attack. Mix in some hurry up to not let them get subs into the game and attack them!

Ed

Martz was an okay HC, but he got cute. Drafting that pylon of a rb in Rd1 and that LB in Rd 1
JUST thinking off the top of memory

1st off Jack we all know even Stan can’t afford you LOL.. I was on the Eric DeCosta train back in 2012, and that just a dream for us I think. If we get Eric I would go crazy! Its been forever since we had a real football guy in charge. It will be interesting to see what they do, do they do a quick fix or stay true to their word and change shit up!!!

Jack if you get hired I expect a suite for the Huddle for a game!!!

Here’s a link on two high profiled names to consider:

I for one do whatever it takes to get Jim Harbaugh, despite how much I hated his sideline act. He’s built a winner wherever he’s been. offer him whatever he wants. He would enjoy battling Pete gun fucking chewing’ Carroll and a crack to beat up on the whiners twice yearly.

David Shaw (I mean funny he was at Rams headquarters a few weeks ago)Hmmmmm

If thats not possible I would talk to TOM COUGHLIN, he could run a war room and help rebuild this Org. from the ground up.

then a drop off IMHO
———————————————————–

Kyle Shanny, just not sure he’s truly ready yet. But I think Goff & Gurley would do good under him. I think he better have a great OL coach and a proven QB coach & DC, ya know some vets to help him along for the first year or so.

Matt Patricia Like how he’s gotten the most out his players and he calls a good game. Oh and he’s smart lol

Anthony Lynn players love him, his body of work is growing. Could be a great hire ala Tomlin in Pitt.

Coaches I don’t want:

Jon Gruen Not a fan, and I think for a so called QB guru he ruined more than helped

Boy Wonder McDaniels, I would be chewing my nails wondering if he’s truly changed for the better. But he could be a winner, I wonder if he could bring a real good coaching staff.

After that, any other coordinator hire would be a massive debacle and would say more about not truly fixing things upstairs imho.

@jthom1: It’s a one-year deal for Barnes, w/maximum value of $1 million. He provides depth at center and guard, and could compete for starting spot.

Sims and Haynes age and contract is coming up, so I did have that in the back of my mind.

Height-Weight-Speed 2.. Prototypical height and weight for a 3-4 OLB prospect. Has a good bubble and thickness throughout his lower body. Has excellent straight-line speed for his size. Arm length (32 5/8 inches) is slightly above-average and hand-span (9 3/4 inches) is on par. Explosive leaping ability: 42-inch vertical jump and 11 foot 6 inch broad jump at combine.

Outside Linebacker Specific Traits
Instincts/Recognition 2 Works hard in tape room and transfers it to the field. Picks up on player tendencies. Has the ability to play multiple positions and shows good natural football instincts. Reads his keys and shows solid discipline from the backside. Shows good ball recognition versus the run. Has above-average awareness in zone coverage, especially for comparatively limited reps.
Take-on Skills 3 Has adequate strength to set the edge but it’s not the strong point of his game. Flashes explosive pop at times but needs to play with more violence and with more consistency at the point of attack. Needs to continue to develop as a hand fighter and has trouble anchoring when bigger OTs get into his frame. Shows discipline with outside contain and has athleticism to disrupt the backfield. Also makes more plays in backside pursuit than most DE/OLB types do.
Range vs. Run 1…. Very good athlete with outstanding top-end speed. Holds up well in space and shows easy change-of-direction skills. Gives consistent effort chasing in pursuit.

Tackling 2…. Reliable overall tackler. Flashes explosive snap but lacks consistent knock-back power. Has impressive body control and ability to break down in space for his size. Still will get into trouble when he comes in too hot in outside pursuit at times. Does good job of wrapping up and driving legs through contact.

3rd Down Capabilities 2…. Offers excellent scheme versatility because of his ability to rush the quarterback and drop into coverage. Has good get-off quickness and very quick hands to keep OTs’ hands off his pads. Has excellent redirect skills and closing burst. Shows ability to dip and bend turning the edge and flashes a quick closing burst once gaining the corner. Still needs polish as a pass-rusher. Seems to lack a game plan at times. Needs to refine pass-rush moves. Also must learn to use hands better and maintain better pad level when converting speed-to-power.
Is surprisingly athletic and fluid in coverage for his size. Consistently shows ability to turn and run with TEs in one-on-one situations. Has good range in zone coverage and looks comfortable in space.

I too like C. Long but his cap number is 14,250,000. Age and wear and tear It would be wise from a business stand point to redo his contract or make a tough decision and cut him. He will be 31 next season entering year 8 w/ us..
