I think we need to see more in order to make an informed decision This idea of short show me contracts like these 1yr 2 yr deals are stupid and short sighted. You need to show confidence in a coach to be here for the long term. Showing only short term support will have coaching going after short term success Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have to show full confidence in them for the players to listen to them. Give them 3 year contracts at minimum and give Freddie a big raise. I really do not see anyone else out there realistically attainable (or even desirable if realistically unattainable) who is better than Williams and Freddie. If we can work deals with Williams and Freddie so that we can hold them and are not hogtied for too long and in the process obtain competent DC and ST coaches, I am good. One year is a bit too little; three years is a bit too much; two years seems just right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus, if someone really wants Kitchens, they'll offer more years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have to imagine Mayfield would weigh in on this, though, and maybe tip the scale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brownie man Posted January 2, 2019 Author Share Posted January 2, 2019 I think Dorsey could actually showcase Freddie as being one of his handpicked guys. He went Freedie when everyone else believed Todd was going to be our undisputed play caller. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brooks1957 Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 Freddie is my top choice. Choice 1A would be Matt Eberflus, current DC of the Colts. He got left at the altar by Joshy MuckDeee (That plick!) after moving to the Colts. But the Colts stood by Eberflus - and they were rewarded by Matt. Colts had the 30th rated defense when he took over 2 years ago, and finished this year as a top 10 defense. Better news is that he is all about defense - I think he keeps Freddie in his current role. Of course the Russian Roulette game you are playing there is Freddie is not poached by someone else for a HC gig. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We asked to talk to Nick Sirianni yet he has a playoff game this weekend with the colts and we can't talk to him until after the championship game if he goes that far... Will we wait to talk to him?

ReggieCamp Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 3 minutes ago, mistakey said: i cant imagine us waiting so long. Agreed. Buddy Boy knows who he wants. For what it's worth, I don't think Freddie is his favorite. If he were, he would've pulled the trigger by now. That doesn't mean Freddie won't be the HC. I just don't think he's Dorsey's first choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

big poppa pump Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 I still feel that McCarthy may be their man because of the Green Bay connection. How did Dorsey, Highsmith, and Wolf regard him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
