So how do all you that voted for Ben Johnson now move to? I think it’s Payton, Ryans, or Gannon. finalist list imho.
I just shifted my vote from Johnson to Gannon.
What do you like about Gannon over the others?
The teachers on his proposed staff.What do you like about Gannon over the others?

You can only go by what's been reported.It's all rumor at this point. Could be fire where the smoke is, but no guarantees.
I'm sure a fair amount of the analysis that Nick is doing and will figure into the eval is who the HC candidate wants on his staff, especially at OC, DC, ST and QB coach.
Hopefully, Nick can control himself long enough not to tell the HC who will be on staff. Suggestions are fine, but the HC needs the leeway to pick his guys. **hopefully he strongly suggests Ross at ST.
I'm still sitting on a lot of jokes.Someone should really tell him what the joke/snafu is - I don't think he is going to be able to figure it out otherwise.
First time I have seen ego make someone 'reading' blind.
Gannon is a lot like Ryans, he inherited a defense that is loaded. The D made Gannon, Gannon didn’t make the D.What do you like about Gannon over the others?
I went ahead and voted for Gannon. The coaches that have been associated with Gannon is what pushed me over the top on him. Kafka is a close second for me. With what Kafka did with Daniel Jones really pushed him to the top of my list.
Kafka is from the WCO and ZBS coaching tree, so that puts him at the top of my list based on candidates being interviewed.I'm team Kafka. Started with Mahomes and now has Daniel Jones playing like Mahomes.
Sounds like Pep Hamilton’s resumeI'm team Kafka. Started with Mahomes and now has Daniel Jones playing like Mahomes.
The difference is Kafka is 35 and spent 5 years with 1 team. Kafka was drafted by Reid and played QB for Andy for 3 years. Andy must have been impressed with Kafka, thought he was really smart so Andy hired him as coach where rose up the ranks rather quickly.Sounds like Pep Hamilton’s resume
Speaking of coach Reid and his assistants, what's your thoughts on why his current OC Eric Bieniemy is unable to land a HC job of his own ?The difference is Kafka is 35 and spent 5 years with 1 team.

Sherman Lewis 2.0, Bruce Arians 2.0. Sad to see imo, thats how the NFL. See recently LeftwichSpeaking of coach Reid and his assistants, what's your thoughts on why his current OC Eric Bieniemy is unable to land a HC job of his own ?
This yr isn't the yr for the fresh young new start at QB. Next yr is though.the head coaches for 7 out of the 8 remaining teams in the playoffs were offensive coordinator coaches.
HEAD COACHES
DAL - mike mccarthy - OC for saints 00-04, 49ers 05
NYG - brian daboll - OC for browns 09-10, dolphins 11, chiefs 12, bills 18-21
PHI - nick sirianni - OC for colts 18-20
JAX - doug pederson - OC for chiefs 13-15
CIN - Zachary Taylor - OC for dolphins 15, bengals 16
SF - kyle shanahan - OC for texans 08-09, redskins 10-13, browns 14, falcons 15-16
KC - andy reid - OL&TE for packers 92-96, QB&asstHC packers 97-98
BUF - sean mcdermott - DC for eagles 09-10 and panthers 11-16
not only that, 8 out of 8 teams have qb’s less than 30 years old.
i hope we pass on dinosaur payton and we keep all our picks. instead we hire a fresh new offensive minded coach to bring up our new qb with the 2nd pick. we need a new start at qb not leftovers in FA. best available qb then wr in 1st rd.
This is very fair and I'm in total agreement.Kafka sounds like a very good candidate. I would prefer an offense minded coach. However, I suspect that Gannon is the front runner. The good thing about Gannon is his supposed group of coaches that he would bring with him. But, there is no guarantee that they would actually come with him. That concerns me a lot. If they don't come with him his ranking in my mind goes down a lot.
He covered up a rape by one of his players as an asst coach at Colorado.Speaking of coach Reid and his assistants, what's your thoughts on why his current OC Eric Bieniemy is unable to land a HC job of his own ?
Speaking of Leftwich, I sure wish the Jags would've hired him.Sherman Lewis 2.0, Bruce Arians 2.0. Sad to see imo, thats how the NFL. See recently Leftwich
He didn't fire Arians, the Rooneys wanted more of a running game and his contract was up. In terms of Leftwich, he was good enough to call plays during their superbowl run in which the GOAT threw 3 picks, but the defense gave up fgs and or no points, but now he's a bum?Speaking of Leftwich, I sure wish the Jags would've hired him.
Only Leftwich could finish under .500 with the GOAT at QB.
Lewis got a raw deal.
I never figured out why Tomlin fired Arians.

Payton is a "dinosaur". What about McCarthy and Reid? Former OCs still in the playoffs?i hope we pass on dinosaur payton
Always the comment when there is no real responseMy point stands.
He has some personal history that teams do not want to deal with.Speaking of coach Reid and his assistants, what's your thoughts on why his current OC Eric Bieniemy is unable to land a HC job of his own ?

It's been a mixed bag, TBH.Teams can do much worse than poaching the Andy Reid coaching tree. I am team Kafka!
My point stands.
Only Leftwich can hold down the GOAT.
Well maybe Giselle and Sam Bankman Fried.
I have heard EB interviews terribly. No specifics though. They just say "bad interviews" If EB wants a HC job he really needs to leave KC and Reid and prove he can do it somewhere else, as an OC without Reid, like Kafka did. It makes me think people don't know if it is EB or Reid leading to the success of the offense.Speaking of coach Reid and his assistants, what's your thoughts on why his current OC Eric Bieniemy is unable to land a HC job of his own ?
Nagy didn't leave. Kafka left and went under Daboll who fixed Allen. Daniel Jones is still average, but now all off sudden he fixed Jones and is a hot candidate.I have heard EB interviews terribly.

So they say. If teams didn't want to hire him, why interview him at all when he's the oc in KC? Again, we've seen this story before with Sherman Lewis, Bruce Arians, and now EB.He has some personal history that teams do not want to deal with.
And Nagy wasn't very good. That kind of proves my point that EB needs to separate himself from ReidNagy didn't leave. Kafka left and went under Daboll who fixed Allen. Daniel Jones is still average, but now all off sudden he fixed Jones and is a hot candidate.
Unfortunately It's true,Sometimes I wonder if you're just trolling....and then I see a post like this and I no longer wonder.
Anyone else having trouble with this site? It’s been in quicksand for hours for me.
I wonder what time the Demeco Ryans interview will take place?
I think so. Unless Cal, Nick, and Hannah flew to him since SF plays this Sunday.Is it by zoom?

b/c his franchise qb wasn’t feeling Arians as a playcaller thats why.
