OC and DC replacement discussion

[imauafan]

I heard Mike Griffith on Finebaum, don’t know anything about his credibility, but he thinks Pruitt will get a DC job this year and thinks Bama will come calling.

Yes, I heard that as well.

Andy Reid has gotten more praise than really what he deserves. He is a good to a better than average coach but as an offensive play caller he is a poor man’s Kiffin.

He's won a Super Bowl...what has LK won without CNS?

So how are the steelers doing this year?

Sorry couldn't resist.

Eh… you really want to go down that road? Because there are a lot of bozos who win Super Bowls as HCs. And the one that Andy did win was a miracle that Jimmy G and Shanahan more choked away. It’s amazing how SB LIV and SB LV were practically the same game and Andy lucks out in one and gets blown out in the other. But when you look at the quarterback and coach on the other side of the field then you know exactly why he won the one that he did.

More to the point, Mahomes makes that offense 10x better than what it is. Put an average guy like Kirk Cousins in that offense and you get slightly average results. We kinda saw that with Alex Smith. Andy before that super bowl was known for being one of the biggest chokers in nfl history.

But if we going to the nfl then there are far better offensive staffs than those in KC. Have you ever wondered why no one tries to get bielemeny away from KC? Here is a hint… the same reason no one really is breaking down the door to get BoB away from us.

I would say Daboll and whoever is the qb coach at the Dolphins are probably the best offensive minds currently in the nfl. But the nfl constantly changes so it will probably be someone else next year.

Productive even though we constantly are getting injuries to our defensive studs. I’m just happy we finally got rid of Claypool.

I got to thinking about this this afternoon. We've had FOUR games (Texas, 3-6, UT and now LSU) go down to the final play (WR's FG against UT came with 10 seconds on the clock). Has this ever happened in one season? Four games decided on the last play of the game???

In those four games here are the scores:
Bama 20 - Texas 19
Bama 24 - 3-6: 20
Bama 49 - UT 52
Bama 31 - LSU 32 (at end of regulation 24/24)

I'm not saying Gol*ing should NOT go, but before the LSU game we were averaging 43 a game.

In 3 of these 4 games, the real problem is BOB. He was really the problem in the UT game too and BY bailed him out with his heroics after the terrible 1st quarter. We should have scored 60+ against UT!

But if our offense is just having a "good" day in those other 3 games, only giving up 19, 20, and 24 by the defense should still enable us to enjoy a 20+ point win.

Gol*ing is A problem, but the last two years BOB has been THE problem!

OK, carry on with coaching suggestions!

May as well include the Ole Miss game. It was the next to last play, with the last play taking the knee.

I like the Dolphins offense right now. They are passing and running effectively right now. I know we don't have a Hill or Waddle in our WR Corp, but the variety is plays is very good.

An OC from the NFL would be great for X's and O's (assuming he's an upgrade from Obie). But how would he do on the recruiting trail, especially on defensive prospects?

Nope...we each have our opinions. Check out David Girardi -- QB coach and offensive analyst at KC. OC in waiting it appears...can you tell I'm stuck at home and totally bored...

I'd say it would depend on his age.

Sark might be gone before Arch takes a single snap. Ewers is only a freshman and really hasn't done anything to lose the job. My guess is boosters pressure Sark to get Manning on the field ASAP.

He was absolutely terrible in the TCU game. I mean, horrible

Ewers or Sark?

 

[DzynKingRTR]

Ewers or Sark?

both

 

[BamaMoon]

So how bout this: Bama is 2 plays away from being 10-0 and 3 plays from being 5-5.*

Yeah, but mostly Ewers.

Yeah, but mostly Ewers.

I felt for the kid when he bullseyed Billingsley in the chest and he dropped it. It wasn’t all him

So let me get this straight… you want a guy that has only had a field position for 2 years in his career and those two years are with Mahomes as your quarterback…..

By the way Nagy is the second in command behind Bienemy on the offensive staff. Just because he has PGA by his name doesn’t mean he is the OC in waiting. Giradi is the assistant quarterbacks coach behind Nagy not the senior assistant.

 

[AlexanderFan]

After today Josh McDaniels may be available

 

[Joefus]

if Milroe is the qb next year Briles is THE guy to call imo.

no disrespect to anyone here but getting an nfl coordinator to come to college for the same job is a pipe dream. The pipe-iest of pipe dreams. It’s not a lateral move it’s big fat giant step down. Zero chance that happens.

Phillip Fulmer has never, EVER, beloved anything other than himself…

He belongs in politics. He could then take whatever party he’s affiliated with down with him AND unify the NS board in the process…
