Who would you make defensive coordinator? - Houston Texans Message Board & Forum

TEXANRED · 11-16-2008

Who would you want as our new defensive coordinator?

Maybe Jim Johnson has another gem tucked away ready to blossom.

**Hookem Horns** · 11-16-2008

Jim Eddy still hasn't caught on with anyone yet.

Jackie Chiles · 11-16-2008

Mike Nolan is currently unemployed, I'd be interested to know if he could excel in a 4-3. I think he does both 4-3 and 3-4 but someone else will have to explain that in further detail.

Jim Bates is out there and he had quite a bit of success before his failure in Denver recently.

Frank Bush would be the likely candidate if we promote from within but I would personally be very disappointed just because I would like to see the entire defensive coaching staff be reshuffled.

Thats all I can think of immediately.

“(Eagles defensive coordinator) Jim Johnson has developed a lot of good lieutenants. Teams looking for a defensive coordinator are going to have to take a close look at his position coaches. Sean McDermott has been the secondary coach and linebackers coach. He comes from the same line as (Ravens head coach John) Harbaugh, (and defensive coordinators) Leslie Frazier, Ron Rivera and Steve Spagnuolo. He’s been in the system for 10-some years and has worked his way up the ranks. He played at William & Mary with (Steelers head coach) Mike Tomlin. He’s not going to fly under the radar much longer. Rivera just got promoted (to defensive coordinator in San Diego). Spags and Frazier are in line for top jobs. The Jim Johnson pipeline is hot.”

I want.

Give me a guy who knows how to play defense and what an attacking defense looks like.

Thats all I want for Christmas.

One day (I can dream right?)
I really don't know, It is easy to pick this name or that name, but...

If we are going fictional characters, some one needs to get Shane Falco here pronto.

Think he could tell Sage a thing or two about "quicksand?"

**Hookem Horns** · 11-16-2008

Didn't Jim Eddy always look like this guy? ...

I would be interested in Mike Nolan as well. Jim Bates was mentioned as a potential DC here when Kubiak got hired, but Bates wanted to be able to hire his own assistants instead of Kubiak doing it.

Sounds like a plan to me, anything even resembling what they do in Philly and NY would be like advancing from simple addition to rocket science.

Well, Bill Yoast is a REAL person who was portrayed by Will Patton...

Buddy Hackett and the Houston Oilers.

steelbtexan · 11-16-2008

If Reid gets fired Jim Johnson may be available.

Mike Nolan

TexanSam · 11-16-2008

Wade Phillips is probably gone at the end of the season. He's probably worth a look

If Reid gets fired we have our new HC.

I can't see him going anywhere for a long, long, time.

I would love to have Phillips but he is a 34 guy. I just can't go through another retooling.
