stizz 5,594 Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 On top of what has all been said, we'd also be giving a rival two free third round picks and they already draft well. Morocco Brown or Rick Smith make way more sense. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

RedandBlack4ever 47 Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 LOL Maybe they're letting this leak out so we get so worked up then they say what if we just do Rick Smith and Raheem Morris. SavedByGrace1221 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Artys Arryn 1,622 Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 I'd be tentatively excited with Brady and I'm surprised most people here are not feeling it. I get he is incredibly young but for the longest time it seems like people have wanted a young and innovating offensive mind at head coach. That is exactly what you get with Brady. He was a key component of the historic LSU offense and Bridgewater had a career year despite the team missing their star running back. It's a high risk, high reward move for sure. I'd be interested to see what coordinators he could bring with him. dodge_birds_fan 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

BUT someone on here mentioned to me that the not so flashy hires usually do good. I'm all for EB (starting to cool on him though), but sometimes the big names don't do well. I am feeling good about this pairing and am in the same boat with you about EB. I just like the symbiotic nature of this and am concerned about hearing an OC that isn’t the mastermind behind his group. (Not saying he wouldn’t do fine, but it is a concern.)

celtiksage 1,955 Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 2 hours ago, ROMERO said: No hate on Joe Brady but I dont see the hype. I understand he was part of the LSU Championship winning season but to me its too early for him to be a head coach. I would have to agree with this, except I do see some of the hype. I would be shocked because I agree that he needs a little more time. But sometimes, just like the draft, time isn't a luxury we have. Might have to get him and groom him if this does happen. He probably won't be available the next time we need a coach. Would he come as anything other than HC? Is it allowed? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
HillbillyFalcon 163 Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 2 hours ago, The Don™ said: Seems like they're trying to capitalize on the "young, up and coming" OC trend. It would be a risky hire but Quinn came very well received by many and he flamed out quickly. You never really know. It could be that they liked his plan to make the offense hum again and had Matt Ryan in the future plans too. If Brady was the guy, I could easily see him handing the keys to the defense to an experienced DC. I think that is the key here, Brady realize what he does well and surround himself with coaches who will take care of the rest. I also think too many head coaches try to control everything, have a plan and trust your assistants Quote Link to post Share on other sites
celtiksage 1,955 Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 How old were Tomlin and Payton when they started. I know I'm going to look it up now. Would be nice to have a HC that sticks with us a couple dozen years (it would mean we're winning at least). Quote Link to post Share on other sites

OrthoPTSD 985 Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 If its Brady, wouldnt you believe he does not have Ryan in his plans? And if so, I would also assume that Blank and McKay are already on board with getting Ryan out of town. No way he sold them on that idea, it was already in place.

MilleniumFalcon 3,083 Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 I like Fontenot, I think he will draft very well. I'm so-so on Brady, he has potential but I'm not completely sold on him, I would prefer Hackett. Ergo Proxy 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
