Integrity28 Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 Just wondering, ya know, given that all he did was lobby for people in his network rather than conduct an actual candidate search. McVay surely had to be on his radar, given his ties to the Redskins. Or wait, did he even bother lobbying his network? Maybe he just put together a list of the hot candidates being talked about on NFLN (of whichever network pays his check). I've lobbied for us to land Wade Phillips as DC since we fired Mangini. I know it's a hypothetical argument, but there's no doubt in my mind that Wade with the defensive rosters we've had would have been amazing. Anyway, thanks Charlie for Bowles. He sucks. I hope Chris Johnson is better at this sh*t... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt39 Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 "Who's been wrong more than Charley Casserly since he left the Redskins?" Belichick said. "His percentage is like a meteorologist. He has no relationship to this team. I'd say less than zero. Based on what? He's never at a practice, never at a game. At least he put his name on it (the report), which is more than a lot of guys. But, like he usually is, he was 100 percent wrong." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drsamuel84 Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 McVay might turn out to be a great coach but Thursday Night did nothing other than prove he's still a good offensive coach. His team gave up 39 pts to Brian Hoyer and while that defense was on the field he was busy sitting on a water cooler going through the offense. Sure, Goff looks like a real QB but it's only been 2 games. If the Rams would've lost that game he would've gone from this so-called "genius" up and coming HC to being bashed for still not understanding he's the HC not the offensive coordinator. I mean his D was struggling against Brian Hoyer and while I understand he hired and experienced DC in Wade Philips to run that D he's still the HC and can't be sitting on a water cooler with his head down drawing up offensive plays while his D is getting roasted. Of course in a Prime Time game the NFL machine isn't going to mention that because he's a young, good looking guy coaching in LA so they want to build him up to be the next great coach.

Hoyer sucks, but he's better than McCown. Garçon is better than any receiver we have, Celek is worlds better than our TE's, Hyde runs circles around Forte at this point and their shaky OL is worlds better than ours.

McVay might be a nice coach but it certainly isn't because he's 2-1 facing the teams battling us for #1 overall. I'm not basing my rant on what the Rams have done in 3 weeks. I'm basing it on the scaleability of what I've seen. So far, I see McVay having gotten their top pick QB to play good football. I see Wade Phillips, and with him it's just a matter of when, not if, he fixes that defense and has them playing terrific. His track record as a DC speaks for itself. They really don't have more talent on their D than we do either. Not in terms of draft capital and proven ability. I can appreciate where you're coming from though, and to the layman would respect it as a counter point, but the Rams are rebuilding - same as us - and already in a better place after 3 games than we are after 3 years. Imagine McVay and Wade after 3 seasons... that's my point. I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THIS is why the NY Jets will always SUCK if Woody Johnson is making the decisions. Belichick has been kicking your since 2001, so what do you do? You go to the guy for advice whom Belichick filets to help make a huge decision about your team because your a moron who can't think for himself, or know anything about the business you f*cking own!

McVay was busy coaching his offense when they were off the field. It is his strong suit and is somethingTB seems to know nothing about. He trusts his DC to make the calls when they are on the field. Does TB trust Kacey?? Regarding challenges, there is CS in the booth who communicate any potential challenges to the HC and then he bases his decision to challenge or not on their advice.

No. The question I'm raising is less about McVay specifically, and more about the sham of a "coaching search" conducted by Casserly. Woody hired him as a consultant, and he had the Jets interview the exact same people that everyone else was interviewing. Literally not one single candidate was an "out of nowhere" that could be accredited to the stellar connections and foresight of Casserly. There were no McVay "types" in his search.

Rams look good right now but it's a long season and with all they gave up to get Goff they should be a win now team. I think most here agreed at the time the trade the Rams made for Goff was a major reach and while he looks much better 2 games is not enough to say he's the guy yet.

So once they do go get their QB next year, things will be a smoother transition.

#27TheDominator Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 He wasn't just 29. He was a TE coach that had one year under his belt running offense for Jay Gruden's 4-12 Redskins. Gruden is an offensive guy, so it wouldn't be obvious how much of their success, or lack thereof, was attributable to McVay. It would have been insane for anybody to have him on their radar at that point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed which is why I was rooting for the 49ers last night, they're obviously one of our biggest threats for a franchise QB (although they could end up with Cousins) so the more games they win the better for us. The biggest difference though and I'm not saying this is right or wrong is they gave their coach and GM 5 year deals IIR meaning they have been given time to rebuild together. The Jets on the otherhand are in year 3 of this regime as they begin their rebuild putting in place an internal battle of Bowles and Macc trying to save their jobs while still trying to rebuild Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
