When I think of Spiller, I try to think of the Gailey version and not the Hackett version. It helps.

This.

What a fall from grace. He poisoned the well for himself. Adios. Maybe he can catch on at on Ball State so we can stll kick his A**.

TBN, Warow, Fairburn, D&C and WGR.

Agree. Rex said he builds his D around the players he has and not just force a scheme on players. He's the anti-Hackett.

I like what said about the OL, the bully boys upfront. Fix the damn O Line and things just get easier.

This Rex stuff is still hypothetical, ain't it?

Chan could scheme circles around Marrone and Nate. He'll do well, except when he plays us!

As one who doubted you once, no more! I'm all in. Please share what you can and we'll try to be patient! Any hint that the splash includes the letters qb? Oh, and say hi to Never Give Up for us. You guys must have a secret club where you all hang out!

Not happy. Schwartz stopped the run cold and still led the league in sacks. Schwartz is a great DC. Stupid to let him walk.

I have no doubt that Saint Doug put the cuffs on Jr., but I also have no doubt that Nate has no idea about using the personnel he has available to their fullest. He draws up good plays but without regard to the talents of the players that he has.

Ya gotta use #sarcasm or an emoticon, at least for threads discussing a new HC!

He looked like a man with multiple neck surgeries and 38 years of football wear and tear. It's time to park it on the porch with an ice cold arnold palmer and let the kids have the sandbox. Great career.

Doug who? Kyle who? That was sooo last year. Time to move on!

Hey, Matt Ryan or EJ? Where would you go? If Rex didn't think he could win here he wouldn't have come here. And sometimes your first choice isn't your best choice. I can't wait to see how this plays out!

No, not really. Wildcat needed no rule interpretations or last second eligibility announcements. Just a great new wrinkle in formations.

So You Think You Can Quarterback?

Wow, in early!

Thanks for not punting! We need you!

Wrong. It a matter like this, style counts. Mass texting, trash talking,clandestine PR wars and slinking out of town with $4 mil in unearned dollers is not how a leader acts. It's how a selfish, untrustworthy egotist acts. In the end, he didn't do what's best for himself because he is exposed as a man with severe character issues and as someone you don't trust with coaching an NFL franchise. He pocketed $4 mil at the expense of his reputation. Like Mastershake, I'm done with trashing DM, but please no revisionist views of a good guy just doing what's best for himself.

The first great branch of the Marrone coaching tree!

Nice work OP and nice discussion. I am of the mindset that we end up doing what Marv Levy said, get better around the QB. TC in STL makes good points as well. It's stupid to give away the future in picks and trades for a marginal qb. I'd rather sign Sanchez and get some decent coaches in here. There is better talent on our O than we showed this season.

I've officially lost count of how many Watkins trade threads there are currently active. What's one more I guess.

And this draft thread has turned into yet another Watkins trade thread. There are about a dozen to choose from now.

It's tricky. Find a HC that wants to keep the current DC and school EJ. After all thise interviews I wouldn't be surprised (or upset) if they went with Schwartz and hired a Trestman as OC.
