Quote:We need Josh McDaniels..   Has learned the "Bellichick" way, has the OC prowess to make BB and the boys kick some butt. Made his mistakes, learned from them, and is ready for the second HC try.  We would be perfect for him.

 

Then all we need is a DC and some safeties..  Caldwell will take care of that.

 

Flame away losers..   same ones that didn't even want to interview Andy Reid..

We'd have probably won a few extra games with Reid at coach, but we probably would have missed out on Bortles as a result. And I don't think Reid would have had the same record here that he's had in KC with our roster. Whether keeping Bradley now is a good idea or not I'll leave for one of the various other threads on the subject, but I think we're going to be in a much better place next year talent-wise than we would have been had Reid been hired instead, mainly because of Bortles potential. That's assuming Reid would have even been interested in the Jags job. Coaches like that don't tend to walk into complete rebuild situations. Might tarnish the legacy so to speak.


On mcdaniels... You might be right. He might have learned his lesson. He was just so embarrassingly bad in Denver. He appeared to be trying to be the players' friend. That's ok to an extent as a coordinator. I don't think that translates to head coach though. After this year, if Gus gets canned, I think we'll have enough talent on the roster to be attractive to a proven head coach who might come available next year or already be available.
