Head Coach thread

"He is a coward. Put that in quotes. He ruined a bunch of people’s lives, a bunch of people’s families, kids, because he didn’t have enough nuts to stay there and finish the job. That’s the truth."

I really like this guy. Unfortunatly, we will end up with Bevell or Quinn.

Quinn is a good defense coach, but not as good as Zimmer. And after thinking about what I've seen from the Seahawks, Bevell is an awful play caller and will only be hired based on his work with Russell Wilson.

Better hope we cut CJ, because if the guy can't use the Beast correctly, he sure as hell won't improve CJ.

 

He was DC at Florida but if the guy is a good coach then I don't think it really matters how much expierence he has.

 

Yes, because Florida is in the nfl?? Zimmer has been a good coach in the NFL for 20 years.

 

What if Bevell can turn SHonn Greene into Marshawn Lynch? They're the same type of back #Believe

 

Marshawn Lynch is on video giving Bevell the bird for not giving him the ball on 3rd and goal.

He has done good things in Seattle. His utilization of Lynch is not one if them, IMO.

 

With Jackson becoming OC in Cincinnati I think Zimmer's next OC target would be Ken Zampese, who has been the Bengals QB coach since 2003. He has had a big part of developing Palmer when he was in Cinny and Dalton currently. While that may not seem like an impressive list remember that Palmer was once thought of as the third best QB in the NFL, behind Manning and Brady, and Dalton has brought the Bengals to the post season 3 times and has improved every season.

I'd be just fine with Zimmer/Zampese/Guenther as our HC/OC/DC. I would also expect to see Zimmer try to bring Adam Zimmer, his son, along with him as an defensive assistant. Adam worked under Mike Zimmer as an assistant secondary coach and has work with Romeo Crennel's Kansas City Chiefs as a defensive assistant prior to that.

But that's if we were to hire Zimmer which IDK if we will.

 

James Franklin has agreed to become the next head coach at Penn State. link here

 

Adam Schefter is reporting that Zimmer is emerging as the favorite in Minnesota. https://twitter.com/AdamSchefter/statuses/421291261262577664

 

Except Lynch is significantly more talented. No coach on earth is going to be able to turn Shonn Greene into Marshawn Lynch.

 

Cross another one off eh?
