    Bottom line is, we can win with Barry - maybe a little more stressfully, but we can still win with him.

    I sincerely doubt at 72 Pete is gonna get another chance to HC, and he still wants to coach. I think he is a terrific defensive mind.

    Kinda wonder if Harbaugh moves on we could snag his DC. Although he may want to take him with him.

    Who are the up-and-comers. I want somebody that's gonna play Ravens style aggressive-as-hell.

    Pete is under contract and working in the offices at Seattle. Probably emptying waste baskets and such.

    Quick housekeeping note: Joe Barry’s contract is NOT expiring, according to a source. Matt LaFleur has yet to make a decision on the future of his defensive coordinator, but it would be a firing and not a decline to renew if he moves on from Barry.

    Yeah I just saw this and thought ah shit, they misled us all along.

    He's probably coming back. Crap.

    With Barry’s contract, it has been stated that a 4 year contract is very unusual for a coordinator.

    Some people are implying that MLF might have extended his contract for the additional year. Not a good look in my opinion for either scenario.

    Time to put off being a legit contender for a couple more years if BarryBall comes back.

    Maybe our Kicker will be able to make extra points and chip shots when they send Barry out the door

    Are they implying the extension occured this year ?

    From MLF's 2023 season ending PC:

    At last year’s season-ending news conference, held the day after the Week 18 loss to the Detroit Lions, LaFleur was asked if Barry would return for 2023.

    “That’s what I anticipate, yes,” LaFleur responded.
    From MLF's 2024 season ending PC:

    “I know there’s going to be a lot of long-term, big-picture questions. I’m not there yet, fellas,” LaFleur said. “We’re just starting the process.”
    If you want to read between the lines, it sounds like he is at least not ruling out some changes. Stay tuned.

    Doesn't he have a hisotry of taking his sweet time even when changes do occur....as candidates get plucked with new coach hires ?

    Matt Schneidman A housekeeping note? Barry really is under contract?

    Shit that outta be put in twenty foot letters in a marquee across 41!!!!

    That's a big thing, but izzit true?

    Starting to get a feel for LaFleur.

    Brilliant offensive mind, with limitations in some parts of the job.

    Like staff building.. Took him years to get a Teams coach. Still doesn't have a D coordinator.

    Seeing as that's the one big fan issue, they got Matt Schneidman to float a blurb that JB is signed?

    Dunno if I believe that shit.

    I suspect they will fire Barry by Thursday. When does Gooter speak?

    Last year it was January 13, 5 days after their last game.

    Agreed. On the one hand, he hired Stenavich as an O-line coach, and many of us here were skeptical, but he worked out as an O-line coach. On the other hand, he took his sweet time getting serious about ST, and he's really dragged out the defensive coordinator issues. I know he inherited Pettine, but his hiring of Joe Barely seemed more a result of just having experience with him rather than him being the best available defensive coordinator prospect.

    I have a sinking feeling that he's back.

    I'm not so sure. If MLF has made the decision to bring him back, he could have just said so right away like he did last year. My hope is that MLF will sit down with Gute, and Gute will convince MLF he can do better than Barry. The team that made the decision to move on from Aaron Rodgers should be able to move on from Joe Barry.

    It's like when you were in high school and your best friend tried to talk you into breaking up with your girlfriend/boyfriend. "You can do so much better! They're holding you back, man!"

    Guter should bring in some high school kids to talk to MLF about this. They'll set him straight.
