  • Sean McDermott in the running for DC?

    It's only a blurb in PFT, but it does make a little sense....

    "Eagles secondary coach Sean McDermott, per Schefter, is also a leading candidate for the position.

    McDermott replaced John Harbaugh who parlayed one year in that position (and several more as special teams coach) into the Ravens head-coaching job. The prior year, McDermott worked for a season as the replacement at linebackers coach to current Giants defensive coordinator Steve Spagnuolo.

    In all, McDermott has been with the Eagles since 1998.

    If McDermott is still under contract with Philly, the Eagles could block the move. If his contract is expiring after the current season ends, he’s free to go."

    All those that want a blitz laden scheme would get their wish. Johnson disciples are hot, so who knows?

    Good Grief. Spare us from the disaster this fool, McDermott, would bring us.

    The last thing we need is a disciple of the bullshit Johnson uses.

      I don't think the system is "bullshit," but it certainly is an aged defense and I'm not sure it's as effective as it once was. You need someone who can continuously change a defense to keep it fresh and create elements that aren't game planned for while being able to effectively teach the concept and the wrinkles to the players without out-clevering themselves like Slowik did. That's more important than the given system a guy comes from.

        I dunno, Tex.

        Johnson's assistants have HC and coordinator jobs all over the league. Maybe it's time we grabbed one.

        The Eagles and Ravens are still headed to the Super Bowl.

        We are headed to DePere.

          That bullshit you speak of has 4 NFC title games and a Super Bowl appearnace to its credit. But your right, the Packers don't need that.

                You whiners better be careful what you wish for. I've got a bad beeling you might get it--either dumbass Williams or dumbass McDermott.

                For every good play resulting from blitzing, there are 5 or 10 big plays against you. Do you guys not see that from watching games--pro, college, whatever?

                So now the mantra is "we need somebody to teach us how to do it right"? Come on, it's not how you blitz that screws things up; It's that you blitz that screws things up.

                    I like that post at update. Here's to hoping any of it is true. Who the fuck does Colin Cole think he is anyway. I think he's got a case of the Corey Williames. Maybe Cleveland will give us a 5th for him.

                      Are you nuts? NOBODY would blitz if that were the case. Do you think the NFL is filled with idiots? Ones that are stupid AND have made it to the divisional round of the playoffs? That defies every ounce of common sense.

                        Again inc case you missed it, the system you call crap has:

                        4 NFC title games(a 5th with an Eagles win today) and a Super Bowl appearance for Jim Johnston.

                        Super Bowl win for one of his disiples last year.

                        But you are right, the Packers don't want any of that. Keep on railing about it though. You look dumber each time.

                        EDIT: redundancy.

                          I had a hunch, since we didnt sign any of the other guys, that we were looking at a guy that was still playing (I even posted as much)-Having said that-I dont know much about this guy.

                            Tex, slow down, sit down, and think.

                            Defense is stopping the run and pressuring the QB as a tool to defend the pass.

                            We did not come close to doing that last season with a decent personnel group.

                            Therefore, we canned the defensive staff.

                            We now have to hire a new defensive staff. We can't stay status quo, all is cool, our boys can do it, go green and gold, etc., etc.

                            We have to make a change and hire new people to coach the D, cause the old guys are all gone, ya know?

                            Williams is NOT a hi blitz frequency guy, neither is Nolan (a nickel package guy). McDermott will probably favor a higher blitz ratio, although another Johnson protege (Spagnolo) really isn't a all out blitz freak.

                            For you to characterize these coaches as dumbass's shows a lack of understanding on your part, not any mental deficiencies in these experienced DCoordinators and assistant coaches.

                            Sanders WAS a lame coach. For us to stay back in that basic Bates shell all the time and let opposing offenses shove us around, yeah, that was a dumbass move.

                            MM wants to get a coach in here that can stop the other team and get our offense in better position to win us games. The train has left the station. You'll have to catch a bus and meet it at another town if you want to get on board.

                            If not, you've already been left behind,

                              Isn't McDermott a DC right now? Wouldn't it be a lateral move if he came to GB? Wouldn't he only move on for a HC position?? Or am I thinking of someone else...?
