Next head coach?

[JosiahLee]

Hiring outside of the box is how we got BA… you never know.. but ya, we’re basically hiring a crap shoot

Yeah BA is such a rare find, but it’s true no one else wanted him…Boy were they wrong.

But on the flip side, he wasn’t a young up-and-comer, he was an old coach that was overlooked and never got his shot. All of his experience and relationships definitely played a factor in his immediate success, that and he was bold and fearless…He had waited all his life for that opportunity so he was gonna do it his way and not care what others thought. I don’t know that a young coach would have that kinda edge to him.

But then again, Campanile is coming from an organization where a young coach just showed immediate success is possible.

BA was great but let’s not forget we also brought Carson Palmer in when they hired him and when Palmer retired Arians left.

The point is, it won’t matter who we bring in if we don’t figure out the QB position.

Someone needs to lay out point by point why this is the prevailing opinion about VJ. Is it his time as a former HC in Denver? Is it about his time as DC here under KK? Gut feelings? I dont know!

this is his run defense.

Isaiah Simmons in a nutshell, blockers occupied and he looks like he’s backing up rather than firing up into that gap.

Kliff Klingsbury has exited his box and entered the chat.

Where's the gap integrity as some guy might wonder.

Venerable seems to be on board.

I am.

 

[Minski]

He's become no. 3 on my list behind Kubiak and LaFleur. JGs problem was he talked a good game and we saw glimpses of a hard hitting D but if the Don can come in and make us a** kickers then I'm all for it.

The guy has got some fire to him.

Sounds like Rocky balboa. I’m in.

I thought that too, only with F bombs and then realized who he realized sounded like…

Justin, aka “Jersey” of Chavo and Justin fame from UCSB.

Maybe we should be like that indoor league where the fans voted for the plays!

Thesmel will flood the ballots and have us running the Wishbone!

I'm particularly fond of the Annexation of Puerto Rico.

Or of course, the Fumblerooski.

Keep'em on their toes.

This speech is 100x more infamous than the "who took the bus" speech. Goofy, I can deal with as long as the players respect him. But this guy comes off as a blithering idiot. This is a meathead without an ounce of charisma, every single Dolphin had him completely tuned out. He is the perfect embodiment of the New Jersey douchebag stereotype.

But he did have a great year in Jacksonville, he definitely is a good football mind, and stereotypes probably don't fully encompass who he is as a person. Hopefully he doesnt turn out to be a prick as a headcoach.

I don’t care about any of that either way.

Can he execute and coach wins?

That’s my list of what I want in a HC.

All the other stuff is just window dressing.

As is everyone else, including teams that hire second time head coaches, who failed at their first stop. Hiring unknowns is kind of like the name of the game.

I still prefer Mike LaFleur or Klint Kubiak, but I must admit that I am intrigued with Campanile. Especially considering his contacts with potential offensive coordinators.

 

[Stout]

I swear K9 has more disagrees than the entire board combined.

A legend in his own mind

head coaches / staff need to be good on two dimensions:

culture (accountability, team first, disciplined, etc)
scheme (give your players an edge / offset opponents HC scheme)

Kliff: poor on culture (even he admitted that afterwards), good on scheme.

JG: good on culture, poor on scheme

seems like Monti really values the culture part first, and then the scheme part afterwards

An entire career, defined by a single frame, from a single play, meme-style burn. Well done.

I'm not ceding that JG was good on culture. The best that can be said for him is that his team didn't quit for the whole historically-bad season, though it did quit. What's the positive to the pew-pew culture? What culture has this team built that can now be built upon?

All of the above

Losing coach in Denver as HC

Subpar defense while in Arizona (he never had a top 10 defense) and his play calls at the time were infuriating.

Brings zero hope to a struggling offense.

Big no thanks from me dog.

NFL coaches, execs say Cardinals' HC opening is worst in league

The Athletic polled 10 NFL coaches and execs about the head-coaching vacancies. The Cardinals do not rank well.

A lot of people seem obsessed with this idea of “culture,” and I think many of them confuse being loud and tough-talking with actually building a winning environment.
Yelling, dropping F-bombs, and trying to look hard doesn’t create a strong culture. Winning does. Leading by example does. Supporting players when they screw up — instead of embarrassing them or getting physical on the sideline — does.
You can be a tough, demanding leader without putting on some fake tough-guy act. Honestly, how many trash-talking, chest-thumping coaches have actually lifted the Lombardi Trophy? That tough garbage quickly wears thin on players, staff, and ownership, and a return to loserville follows.
At the end of the day, hire the best person for the job — not the one who sounds like the best. And ownership needs to do real homework instead of getting fooled by big talk, especially when that coach hasn’t actually achieved the ultimate goal: winning a Super Bowl.

Bidwill, M. just needs to swallow all that pride and hire a President of Football Operations like Warner or Fitz.

He is not fit to run a child’s neighborhood lemonade stand in the Arizona summer.

Better yet - sell the team! There are tons of people interested, and we can have a REAL NFL owner!
