Next head coach?

[FB94]

The Cards were sick as well by that point of the season.

The MBMOJG flu was going around

 

[slanidrac16]

He called the plays in the 1st Cards/Rams game of the season as McVay was sick. The Rams scored 45 points that game and had 530 yards of offense.

Yes …. But does that count? It was against the Cardinals.

If we weren’t fake wealthy i would’ve offered McDermott HC and POFO. Demote Monti to some secondary position if he wanted to stay.

LeFleur or Coach Camp are a triple in the gap given what’s left. McCarthy, Weaver, Stefanski and Hafley going where they did was favorable for us.

Hollywood makeup artists could make you or I look exactly like that.

[BullheadCardFan]

would imagine LaFluer would bring Raheem as DC based on past relationship? Who would be his OC in name

Who would he bring in as OC?

I think that's important also

Someone to get the offense back on track and the run game going again

That is certainly a very interesting question, BCF. Again I will go by his connections from prior coaching stops. Usually a head coach’s assistant is among those that he has crossed ways with earlier.

I think the most interesting would be Adam Stenavich, who right now is the offensive coordinator with the Packers, where he works with Mike LaFleur’s brother. His specialty is offensive lines, and I just think that would be ideal. He is interviewing with the Titans these days for the same position, but I guess that is because they would let him call plays. He would obviously not be with the Cardinals, so I don’t know if he would switch to a similar role as he has now. He once coached in Arizona, so maybe he is missing living there.

Another one could be Ryan Wendell, who is the offensive line-coach for the Rams. That is simply a good unit.

Dave Ragone is the QB-coach with the Rams, and earlier he has had a couple of stops as an OC.

Nate Scheelhaase is an extremely interesting coach, who right now is the offensive passing game coordinator for the Rams. He is having multiple head coach interviews this cycle, and if he doesn’t get any - and LaFleur leaves - I would expect that the Rams want to make him offensive coordinator.

John Benton worked with LaFleur in San Francisco and with the Jets. He is now the offensive line-coach with the Seahawks. I think their o-line has been fine this season, and it would just be nice to steal him from them.

Thanks for the input

0 chance for Kubiak. We will go after L

Let's bring in Lafleur with Scheelhause (SP?) as OC.

 

[Totally_Red]

One hope I have is that Mike Lafleur's brotherly connection with the GB head coach would be a plus (along with a competitive offer) in signing Malik Willis in free agency.

 

[DVontel]

Let's bring in Lafleur with Scheelhause (SP?) as OC.

Scheelhaase will most likely just be Rams’ OC I would think.

 

[Cbus cardsfan]

Glad everyone is on the same page!

If this is the case, it will be interesting to see who makes the call. My guess is Monti, being the ultimate yes man, cedes to Mikey. That will give him job security. If he chooses Camp and it's a failure, Monti is gone too. If LaFleur is the guy, and he fails, Monti can say he wanted the other guy.

I would imagine so. Still, worth a try. Added bonus: His name makes for a great yinzer pronunciation.

The decision will tell us if Monti has any real GM intelligence or is just a lickspittle. In no world would he survive another failed coaching hire, even if he cedes to Bidwill, M.'s wishes. Why not go with your guy under those circumstances?

 

[JosiahLee]

Right now both OCs from the Rams and Seahawks look good. Advantage Kubiak as he actually calls the plays.

Big time advantage. Mike LaFleur is an assistant to the assistant regional manager.

 

[Gandhi]

Well, I guess LaFleur, Morris and Campanile were not the finalists anyway.

By the way, you can find my list of potential OC’s with Weaver earlier in this thread. From the list of suggestions, Bobby Slowik has been hired by the Dolphins, and Todd Monken is very likely the new offensive coordinator with the Giants. The rest might still be available.

He was supposed to fly in yesterday, but I’m sure it got delayed like alot of flights did due to the inclement weather.

Maybe he flew in yesterday to meet today?

Good point.

 

[Chopper0080]

One nice thing about this cycle is that I have zero expectation for these candidates. Camp. LaFluer. Weaver. Vance. Shula/Webb (if they bring them in). You won't really know how they will fit until you start getting content. Start seeing the staff they bring in. It's like Coen. He was meh until he was good. Kinda the way it is until you are an established organization that gets first pick.

I’m doubting this tug of war talk about Monti and Mikey.

I think tug of war is dramatic. They obviously have a slightly different preference and are willing to bring some options back in to try to come to a consensus.

Monti is out, regardless of who picks the next HC and he fails miserably. If it's Monti's pick, that means he picked two consecutive losers. If it's Mike's pick, he can say Monti should have had the balls to speak up and stop him. Either way, Monti only gets one more HC failure.

I think I prefer Weaver to Morris for DC, TBH.
