What great leaders/coaches do you see constantly yelling at people?

well, if you are going to add the word "constantly", then none.  But guys knight, Saban, parcels, Lombardi were quite successful.  I'm not saying yelling was reason for their success or that I even respect it, but guys like that have gotten it done.

Chuck is terrible Mcdaniels would atleast flip out on the players when they made mistakes instead of looking dumb founded like Pagano does all the time.

I don't get this mentality at all.

 

As a grown man when you communicate with me I do not respond to yelling and swearing. Adults have adult conversations.

His stint in Washington showed it. I'm not talking about the RG3 stuff, more so the poor adjustments and game planning. Kyle did a great job doing what he could with a talented, yet incompetent QB, but I don't think Mike would do much at this point in time.

He took a lousy spread option QB that the GM reached on to a playoff game by tailoring the offense around his limited skill set (although some of the credit goes to Kyle). He also showed GM qualities by having the foresight to draft Cousins, who is now going to receive a huge payday. Plus he didn't get a franchise QB. He had a washed up McNabb, and then Rex Grossman and John Beck. He was fired for not being able to win with terrible QBs. The game has in no way passed him by.

1. Shannahan (Mike)

2. Gruden

3. Saban 

4. McDaniels

 

In that order. McDaniels is a last option IMO. 

 

I don't really like any of them. All are overrated, in my opinion. Especially Gruden. Shannahan is a rich man's Jeff Fisher, still living off past glory nearly 20 years after the fact

True... but his point has merit, Pagano is an enabler. Lack of accountability is our biggest cultural problem right now. That's why you see the same mistakes being made by players old and new, for 5 years straight. He's a player's coach, but it's at the point where it's to a fault now

I'm probably in a tiny minority here, but I think we should give Jeff Fisher a look.

 

I felt like his Titans teams usually punched above their weight class.

 

I always thought the same about Jack Del Rio in JAX, too.  And look what he's done in Oakland.

You are most certainly in the minority.

Irsay needs to bring in Jim Harbaugh and let him replace Grigson and Pagano. He could easily take the salaries that are being wasted by them and bump it to make it more attractive than his raise he's going to get from MIchigan. 

 

Reunite Andrew with Jim and let the magic start.

 

That's pretty unlikely to happen, IMO.

Oh, I know.  But, then again, if we'd have hired JDR, Colts fans would've fumed....wrongly so.  Again, he's done a masterful job in Oakland.  And I, for one, am not surprised.

 

The mark of a coach is how well a team does relative to the hand they've been dealt.  And I've long thought that both Fisher and Del Rio usually did better than most with usually bad hands.

 

Jack Del Rio is an excellent football coach.  And so is Jeff Fisher.

Ok.

 

I gave him a look.

 

Then turned my head away quickly.

He's an offensive guru. They never really have elite players all over the offense but he seems to know how to use them correctly. Denver gave him power that he had not earned. He would need a strong GM to work with but Irsay would probably keep Grigson.

Falcons, Patriots are all in playoffs, I feel Gruden has a head start with any interviews along with Mike Shanahan.

 

What do people think of Lovie Smith as DC ? TY McGill and several pieces of ours fit a 4-3 D more, hence the question

Personally, I think a move to 4-3 would be wise. However, Lovie is currently the head coach at the University of Illinois. It seems unlikely he would leave that for a coordinator position in the NFL.

Can't assistant coaches interview during the first round bye?

      Richardson day to day with abdominal, oblique injuries

      By ColtAndOrioles · Posted

      I have rewatched the play that he got injured on last Sunday and after which he started flopping around like a fish.  Or worse yet a soccer player who fell like he has just been shot after getting nicked by a finger.   Honestly if he gets hurt from a hit like that, which was nothing in terms of hard NFL hits, and has such a low pain tolerance that his over riding thought at the time is to drop, and NOT PROTECT, the football?   I don't think he will ever last in the NFL.  I mean his instinct was to release the ball and put his hand on his hip.   Being honest I only see players who only think of themselves do that type of thing.  I am not saying AR is selfish.  I just think he is made of glass and can't take pain.    Watch the hit.  He got hit kind of on the back/side by a guy who is much smaller and who didn't even deliver that big of a blow.  It was a hit that all football players face every game.   I am not to judge anyone about the amount of pain they feel when getting hit by an NFL player.  I am sure it hurts.  But it should be very obvious by now that his ability to be tough and his pain tolerance threshold is very very low compared to other NFL players.    Not to mention, KNOWING THIS, he refuses to slide and even said after the game that he will "do what he do".   Play football.  Not slide.    I am not encouraged.

      Taking a poll on Richardson and everyone's views...

      By Solid84 · Posted

      This is just wrong. Objectively wrong. Several tweets have been posted on this forum over the last weeks with statistics showing AR very clearly has a lot of potential whilst not playing like crap - despite the narrative some here want to push. Don't get me wrong - it's not been all sunshine and roses either, but his supporting cast was pretty % through the first 3 weeks for instance - AR was near top of the league in receiver drops.   Playing Flacco whilst AR is ready gives us nothing. NOTHING. It'll just be a wasted season and we've had more than enough of that in the Ballard era.

      If you had asked me before this week I would have voted yes on being our starter in 3 years.  But after what he said?  I don't have any confidence that he will never learn to protect himself.

      Sam will either be the backup or emergency QB. I will be interested if AR backs Flacco up or is the emergency QB.  I bet AR is dressed as the emergency QB or the backup. It’s going to be interesting what they do.

      Haha yeah.  One thing a player should never do......even give the slightest insult to the home fans.   The people that pay his salary.   "People gonna talk, that's what people do".   Well now he can talk on the couch like all the fans that he dissed.   When you have played a grand total of maybe 5 total games out of what...22 now?   He really just needs to shut up.  And oh, learn how to slide.
