I don't think that's McDaniels. The crap I read about him during his time in Denver was lame. Something about Belichick's assistants who get HC jobs and think they can run the show just like Belichick does. McDaniels had a reputation for alienating people with the way he handled things. So... on second thought, go ahead Cleveland, hire that butt-munch. Let’s not forget the way he screwed the Colts too. Definitely says something of his personality. 1

Yeah, going all the way back to like, Mangini, none of his assistants have really flourished as an HC. O'Brien, yeah, but his personnel decisions this season are gonna have a real negative impact on their future. Flores looks like he has the team buying in. Patricia will probably get another year due to Stafford being out since like week five or whatever, but yeah, for the most part, his assistants don't do much if they get a shot at being a HC. 5 minutes ago, PetermansRedemption said: Let’s not forget the way he screwed the Colts too. Definitely says something of his personality. Yup. I really thought that would sour other teams on wanting to bring him in but I suppose we don't know the whole story. I assume he probably texted them and said, "Nah, I'm good" because he seems like just the kind of dingleberry to do that, but maybe it was more amicable than that. Indy made out better with Reich anyway. 1

I think it was dooshy, but I also don't blame him. He went from agreeing to take over a team with Andrew Luck at QB to taking the same team with Jacoby Brissett (or anyone else not named Andrew Luck). I can't say I blame him for running away.
MJS Posted December 30, 2019 Posted December 30, 2019 And why are the New York Giants considered one of the top coaching jobs? Seems like they suck to me.
eball Posted December 30, 2019 Posted December 30, 2019 Sounds like Snyder still wants to pull the strings in Washington (insisting on Haskins as the QB) -- I know there are only 32 of these jobs but man, I'd be wary of walking into that situation. 1

Young QB who's shown flashes, generational talent at RB, decent ownership, kingmaking kind of franchise. If you're successful there they love you forever. 1

Blah blah. They have history. Pretty sure the present should be the most important thing to a coach. They suck now. Plain and simple. 4 minutes ago, LeviF91 said: Young QB who's shown flashes, generational talent at RB, decent ownership, kingmaking kind of franchise.

Go win a Superbowl with any of the 32 franchises and you are automatically an elite coach.

Plain and simple. It’s an attractive job. But a difficult one. Any coach stepping into a team with a promising rookie quarterback and a second year beast like Barkley it looks promising to add pieces to. Issue is Gettleman at GM and a very poor defense. But quarterback and running back are two solid foundation building pieces if a coach is sold Jones is the real deal.

Aside from stable ownership, you could say the same for the redskins . . .
yungmack Posted December 30, 2019 Posted December 30, 2019 If Gettleman is staying in New York, why isn't Rivera a candidate for that job? And why on God's good earth is Rivera apparently so anxious to go to work for Snyder of all people?

New guy will want to bring in his own coach and GM. NYG - Shurmur is gone, the Mara's have seen enough Dallas - Garret is gone Washington - Doesn't matter, Snyder needs to be gone for them to win Pittsburgh - Tomlin is fired. He's not the guy for the team after Big Ben; Tomlin is in way over his head right now. Tomlin worked miracles to get that team to 8 wins and in contention for a playoff spot. They were on their 3rd string QB and had many major injuries elsewhere on their offense. They have successfully rebuilt their defense to be one of the top 5 in the league (with many young pieces in place) and they have some pieces in place on offense (good QB in Big Ben if healthy, Connor and Ju Ju at the skill positions and a good O-line.) Granted the Steelers are not in a good position cap space wise and they don't have their top draft pick. But Tomlin should be safe no matter what happen there. 4

Hest had plenty of struggles this year as well. Barkley is great. It would suck to be paired with Gettleman. Seems like a below average opportunity to me. But I suppose any team that just fired their coach would not be a super great franchise.
