Thats my only problem with Reid.
I think he would want to hire his own DC and would try to switch and would back to a 4-3. If Reid would be able to recognize that all this defense needs is an aggressive play caller that runs a 1 gap 3-4 base d, he could be a damn good hire. I just dont see that happening. |

After what has happened to his defense this year and him failing to find a DC, I don't think he will have any play on what to do with a defense on his next team. |

If he would hire Rivera or Rex Ryan (if he gets fired in NY) Id FULLY back him as the HC except if Cowher were to want the job and a guy like Gailey or Norv could be brought in to be the OC. I really think this team NEEDS a veteran coaching staff with solid leadership qualities that holds players accountable. |

We need structure and discipline before anything. Cowher is just the coach to put that in order. |

I don't mind promoting a NFL coordinator but I don't want to gamble on a college guy...

Is it really a larger gamble that a college HC can make the transition to NFL HC than it is for a NFL coordinator that hasn't been a HC?

You don't hire someone to do a job and then immediately start telling them what to do. If you have to do that then you don't make the hire.

Try to pay attention. You used to be quite good at that until you, admittedly, put the rose colored glasses back on.
I still LOVE the Reid hire...the moves I disagree with are: 1) trading so much for Alex Smith (I'm on record before the trade saying Id be ok with a MAX of a third rounder for him) 2) signing Dante Robinson 3) Drafting Eric Fisher at 1 when that move doesn't significantly upgrade the team like a top overall pick NEEDS to. I'm fine with just about everything else they did. Way to miss the point. As expected. |

If its a second rounder next year, we went 8-8 or better which will likely show a few things. Andy Reid, the hire you love, runs an offense that has shown over and over to be one that doesn't allow a qb to hide behind a running game and defense. It's ironic that all the elite or bust guys are furious with this move when, like djln said, we got the qb out of the draft who has the highest ceiling, and paired him with what everyone here at the time of the signing called a qb guru and passed in a guy who's upside at this point is the guy we just traded for. Yeah, would have loved for there to have been Peyton manning sitting there at 1.1. But to say we drafted a guy who doesn't improve te team is a little off base when you in turn advocate that we should have taken a qb at 1.1 who wouldn't significantly upgrade the team either. If you want to argue they should have taken someone else, I can get on board with that. I would have taken Richardson there, but I can see the upside if you will with taking fisher. Yes, I don't like the pick, but I can also look at te player an realize that he has the chance to be an elite player due to his skillet and probably is one of the players from the draft who's has the best chance to reach that level. |
