WindyCity Posted December 6, 2017 Share Posted December 6, 2017 I really like what John Morton is doing with the Jets as well and their is a one year overlap between him and Pace in NO and Morton was rehired by the Saints after Pace was here. They run a system similar to the Saints. Some air raid concepts out of 3 WR shotgun sets. But while running the NO type system he is doing so with next to no talent on offense and producing. That tells me that he is a play calling advantage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My guess is a DC like Pettineis going to be in demand with his HC experience and the Bears need to get those type of guys to support a young coach. I thought HC candidates usually talked to their potential assistants to make sure that they in fact would be on board with joining them on a new team. Pettine is out there, Pagano as well... I feel okay defensively. Offensively... I don't care how it happens, I guess, but I want one head coach and one coordinator plucked from the Eagles and Rams. I don't love Greg Olson, but he has been working with Goff in McVay's offense... I think pairing him with DeFilippo would be solid and you can bring experience with Pettine or Pagano.

Read that story about the McVay hire and you'll see that they were putting the deal in place while he was on the way to another interview, and telling him so. For the criticism of Pace, you can't say he doesn't pull the trigger or act fast when he's certain on someone, so hoping this means he's got some tampering in place to get first interviews with people he likes. This is also when the issue of playoffs comes up... DeFillippo and Reich are going to be busy long after Fox gets fired, right? Pace is a calculated MFer... I'm sure he has an idea of who he wants to interview. I believe the Eagles are in line for a first round bye, so we can interview DeFilippo and/or Reich that week. The Rams we will have to wait until if/when they get bounced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BEAR FACE DOWN ARROW Posted December 6, 2017 Share Posted December 6, 2017 Well, learn something every day: i didn't think you could interview during the bye. Thanks! As a side note of positivity, I have learned a ton from this forum and appreciate the thoughtfulness of the conversation around here. Also like the Brett Kollman videos, although I swear the second he says someone is a can't miss prospect they either suck or get injured. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G08 Posted December 7, 2017 Author Share Posted December 7, 2017 Nice read on John DeFilippo... compared to Adam Gase in this one http://www.cleveland.com/browns/index.ssf/2014/01/browns_oc_candidate_john_defil.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WindyCity Posted December 7, 2017 Share Posted December 7, 2017 I am at the beginning of my look at Matt LaFleur, but all I can say is if he is hired get ready to throw the ball downfield. Oh my god do the Rams run a lot of routes over 10 yards and do they go vertical A LOT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G08 Posted December 8, 2017 Author Share Posted December 8, 2017 Guys, how many coaches do we know beyond reasonable doubt are going to get fired on Black Monday? My guess: John Fox (duh) - Bears Marvin Lewis - Bengals (his contract is up and I don't think they bring him back) Chuck Pagano - Colts Dirk Koetter - Buccaneers (ehhhh... I'm not so sure he's gone, has anyone heard anything) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colts, Bengals and Giants are the ones that jump off as being better than the Bears job, maybe the Bucs depending on what they do at GM, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the wheels really fall off over the next few weeks, maybe Adam Gase. The Browns said Hue is safe for next year, but the Browns could Browns and reneg on that. Then there will probably be one that comes totally out of left field. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Giants of course with Hack-a-Poo gone. I think the Giants are getting McDaniels so that wipes them off my list. The Bengals don't jump out at me as an awesome gig, but they have pieces there that are in stone (Dalton, Green etc). The Colts look like a good option but nobody knows how injured Luck is and that defense isn't anything special. The Bears are young on both sides of the ball and the new head coach will have his option of overhauling both the WR and CB positions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bengals have way more talent than the Bears at every single position. The Colts offer more job security. Giants is the Giants I think that the Bears will Ben middle of the pack unless someone loves Trubisky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The sloppiness and lack of discipline did John Fox in more than Xs and Os. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
