Caldwell was, but he seems to be out. I’m cool with any of the 3 potential finalists (Byron/Eberflus/Hackett), but Byron tops it for me. All 3 seem competent/solid thankfully. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When VT was doing their coaching search, he was my very dark horse, left field candidate I wanted. I think that'd be great for him to be back in JAX. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reportedly he wore a teal suit to the zoom interview. He had me at that tbh. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He reportedly turned down MN and Las Vegas interview requests. Shad is keeping this search super close to the vest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just don't get it I could be dead wrong but I feel like Leftwich is going to tank whichever team hires him as a HC I'm not trying to hate I just honestly don't get it He only got a coaching job in AZ because BA liked him And in my humble opinion, he hasn't done much of anything since I believe that all the success is solely due to BAs offense and Brady doing Goat things I'll root for the guy to succeed I just don't see it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s how it works usually in coaching. Hes been lauded as a leader and a personality that fits a HC to a tee. Arians has said he hasnt got involved in offensive meetings/play calling in years. He was viewed as a future coach dating back to his playing days. He may flop/not work out, but most everything I’ve read on him suggests he is a very worthwhile/legit HC candidate and one of the brighter young offensive minds in football.

A lot of times teams interview coaches as HC with no intention of actually hiring them as a HC but as a coordinator later on. So maybe it was one of those.

It's just difficult to really give you anything else It's just how I feel from seeing things unfold throughout the last few years Usually when ppl are interviewing, all you will hear is all thr "good" things When I think of one of the brighter offensive minds in today's NFL I think of Daboll, Shanahan, McVay imo I think Bienemy is more deserving than Leftwich, at least that offense IS creative The Bucs offense isn't all that creative Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are there actual examples of seeing what you’re talking about or reading? Just confusing as to what makes you think Byron is just a figurehead of an OC and does nothing. From all the reporting coming from the team/national people around the league I’ve yet to see anything like that. A lot of young OCs come up under a bright offensive mind to help develop them/take on their philosophies. That’s why you always hear about coaching trees.
