KRL 11,848 #36 Posted January 12 This narrative needs to stop, just look at BUF and Alabama. McDermott is from the defensive side of the ball but he's a "total HC" and hired Daboll to coach/develop Allen into an MVP candidate. And Saban also was from the defensive side of the ball but they score 40+ points a game. Why? Because he also is a "total HC" and he cares about the whole team. That's what matters 3 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DoubleDown 6,827 #39 Posted January 13 Leader. Of. Men. The next head coach needs to oversee the entire team and not focus on one side of the ball. I hope Joe Douglas understands this concept and hires the right candidate. I'm not going to judge without seeing a single game and evaluating how the operation is being run. Offensive. Defensive. I don't care. I just want someone who is going to take responsibility of the entire team, build a solid staff around him, garner respect from all players, instill a culture of discipline, and make aggressive in-game decisions. 3 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Are we going back to drafting D linemen in the first? Has ANY defensive coach put out a top 5 offense in the last decade? that is just so foolish. the bellichicken did pretty well with his offenses. so did parcells. mike tomlin too. and going back a ways, tom landry always had a good offense and shula turned marino loose. the bills have a good offense as do the sea hawks. both of those coaches are from the defense. it happens way more often that you might think or want.

Interestingly, that is how Nick Wagoner, ESPN NFL 49ers reporter, describes Saleh's biggest strength: "Leader of men. Saleh's players love him for his detailed approach, but it's his willingness to gather feedback and evolve based on what he sees that has left multiple 49ers defenders calling him the most intelligent coach they have ever had." It is not that he is a defensive guru coming in to implement his defense but that he is open to hearing possible solutions and finding the best one. A great trait to have as a "CEO-type" head coach. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jetsfan80 119,690 #49 Posted January 13 So not only are you laughably wrong, Nico, you further betray your true thinking: That coaching matters far more than the QB. Darnold sucks regardless of who is coaching him. Get a real QB in here and a defensive head coach is just fine.

pdxgreen 4,915 #55 Posted January 13 He started our as a star TE at a Div 2 school. It's not like he's Rex who learned from his dad, "Three big offensive plays and blitz the hell out of them." Offensive will be a big part of the change in organizational philosophy. My guess is he knows where football already is... not where it's going.

Easier for some people to create a new identity than take their lumps for being wrong on an Internet messageboard. Snowflake is the word you are looking for 2 hours ago, #27TheDominator said: The only issue with a defensive coach over an offensive coach is when they sacrifice the offense for the sake of defensive statistics. I loved Rex, but he seemed guilty of this at times. Part of that was that Sanchez was so bad and they could win with D (at least at first) but there were times when it seemed like they would sacrifice points for defensive statistics. As long as your defensive coach would rather win 38-34, than lose 9-6 it's fine. Yes x10. This is part of the problem with the Jets “fail slowly” approach. Both Rex and Bowles were left on the hot seat far too long. Can’t blame them for looking ahead to their next job interview by polishing up the CV a bit in their area of expertise. An NFL firing should be more like a guillotine than a strangling. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ScarletKnight89 3,483 #64 Posted January 13 The goal in hiring a Head Coach is to hire a Head Coach lol. It doesn't matter what side of the ball they come from. The idea that the Jets can't be good on offense because they hire a defensive coordinator to be Head Coach or vice versa is stupid. If Saleh is a good Head Coach he'll build a team the right way and it won't matter what side of the ball he came from. If he is even the guy they end up hiring.

If the overall team is good then you look at the coordinator who is from the other side of the ball than the head coach. 49ers went to the Super Bowl last year with an offensive head coach. We’re about to hire the DC from there. Same thing with the DC in Indianapolis. That’s kind of how it works these days. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
