Would losing Josh McDaniels hurt the Pats?

If Josh McDaniels left for a coaching job on another team how do you think it would effect the Pats?

 

I think the Pats will do just fine offensively.  They made it to the SB in 2011 with Bill O'Brien as O-coordinator.  It was Bill O'Brien who brought in the two TE set the Pats have been using.

 

If Josh does go to another team I hope the Pats don't go to a finesse passing offense of moving away from the run game.

 

I just don't see Josh as a head coach now.  He's still too young.

Depends who they replace him with, but I'm sure it would be from within and somebody who Brady likes and trusts. If I were BB I would replace him with Brian Shottenheimer........

 

I'm not that familiar with Brian Shottenheimer.   Just quickly looking up his resume it doesn't seem too impressive as an offensive coordinator for the Jets or Rams.  I acknowledge that Sam Bradford has been injured the last two years though.

 

If Marc Trestman is fired by the Bears I'd prefer Trestman as o-coordinator.

I was kidding about Shottenheimer....as a colts fan I wish the pats would hire him.

Trestman is available and waiting for your call.

Word is Trestman is going to Jax

It would probably help them since his play calling goes incredibly whack in the Super Bowl.

 

He was only o-coordinator in one super bowl (2007) and that year was the Giants' destiny year.  The Giants won the game at the line of scrimmage with their pass rush.  Brady didn't have time in the pocket.  Well, the Pats didn't have much of a run game either the entire season.

It wouldn't impact them too much. Belichick would promote from within (probably Brian Daboll). They've run the same offense in NE since Belichick arrived. So it's not like some other guy would bring in a new system. 

 

You always want to retain the best minds you can... I'd rather McDaniels stick around, but if he leaves, they'll be alright.

The only thing that slows the Patriots are injuries. They are healthy for the first time in a long time heading into the playoffs. Josh is good but replaceable. I wouldn't hire him as a HC but he will do better with his next opportunity IMO.

It would hurt the Pats but it might the team he goes to work for ..

    • Man I feel real strong about Brian Thomas jr. I think it's on and cracking if we get him. His game is just consistent and he is such a hard cover. I like him being paired with Pittman. I really do!
    • This is probably the most exciting nonplaying event of the year and it’s tomorrow. I just hope that Balllard  and the scouting department I’ve done their job thoroughly
    • @2006Coltsbestever @NFLfan   Kirk has been treated much better and with much more respect than Wentz was treated in Indy. And was showed with Love and truckloads of money in Minnesota, and was defended constantly with much more ferocity by Vikings fans than people defending Ballard in Grievances thread.    it'd be crazy to think of injustice against Kirk for a few minority who criticize his play.    We're Going back and forth on Kirk debate which will go on for eternity, but I struck Gold when I saw recently @Superman explaining how he felt watching Wentz playing with other teams before he got to Indy and how it felt watching him play for Colts when you're emotionally invested with the franchise.    There's no other way to perfectly describe Kirk Cousins' career and his QB play.   For every fan around the NFL, especially for fantasy football fans, Kirk will be a hero and am above average QB. But, when you're emotionally invested in your favourite franchise and Kirk plays QB for your team, you would come close to understanding how excruciatingly frustrating his play and smartness and game awareness are (or shortage of them are), that all contributes to team missing playoffs many years and even when they qualify, no one sees Kirk as a threat in playoffs. Ever. Your team would be paying Elite QB Money for that, and you'd be constantly in debate with criticizers Vs defenders. Until he plays for your team, you won't realize that, and I totally understand.    Anyway, happy to pass on that frustration over to Falcons fans, they'd know soon. First of all, Kirk takes at least a season or two to trust his OL, even if you put an elite line and weapons around him, and it's all in his head. I'm going to sit back and read Falcons forums for Fun in 2024 Season! Good Times! 
    • I have no idea how it will all shake out, but I have my popcorn ready.
    • There are no owners in the NFL that are perfect people. Some owner's demons are more public, some not so much, but they all have them. There's much more to the free agency issue and the Colts than most are aware of. There are a lot of intangibles most will never consider. That said, there is more to almost every aspect of any organization that most will ever be aware of. Those are often the things that matter most.
