Quote:I don't want Coughlin as HC, but as Football ops, that'd be awesome. I'm happy Gus is gone, but the way it was done tells me Khan has no clue how to run the football side. Bring in a football ops guy, and let him decide if Caldwell should be kept. Then, hire the head coach once GM is decided.


My favorites for HC :

Mike Smith

Todd Haley

Josh McDaniels

Matt Patricia

David Shaw

Jim Harbaugh would be the dream candidate... won't happen though.

 

 

I just don't see McDaniels taking a chance Bortles. I know there were reports he was the Patriot's target if he fell to them, but after the past few years you can tell he just does not have it. And this draft is not great for QB unless you really like Kiser or Watson who are both pretty risk.

 

Shaw and Harbaugh are at their alma maters. Would need huge money to leave, and both have said they will be staying before. Plus Shaw has never truly won anything. He did great when Luck was there, but afterwards, they always appear great and never meet expectations.

 

I'm just not that sold on Smith based on Atlanta. This team will rely on defense for a couple years. But would his system really make the defense better? They need pressure and a more aggressive scheme. I haven't seen Tampa this year to know if that is what he is creating now.

 

Not sold on Patricia. I know he is a details guy and film guy and all, but DC's from the Belichick line never pan out.
