Sean McDermott in the running for DC?

[Packnut]

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.

As long as it ain't dumb ass you!

I wonder if Tex is watching the defenses in the Giants/Philly game. Jim Johnson vs. a Jim Johnson disciple.

Well, you can clearly see by the 34-31 halftime score these blitzes just produce big plays for the offense.

You are in a league of you own.

If we wait for Sean McDermott to be available we could lose out on Nolan and Williams. Then to have the Eagles deny us the interview because he is still under contract for 1 more year. Then we would be limited on choices. I say choose between Nolan and Williams now.

The Eagles won't deny an interview of McDermott. This would be a potential promotion, and denying an interview would make the Eagles look like dicks, not a perception to have for perspective coaches down the line when the Eagles have openings.

Adam Schefter has reported Nolan is taking the Denver job. Hopefuly that can be confirmed today.

Tell that to Tampa Bay, who deny their assistants all the time. Philly has lost two top D assistants in the last two years. It wouldn't be the greatest sin ever committed against Assistant Coaches. So if I am M3, I make sure to contact Reid and the owner to be sure McDermott is available.

There are so many angles to this job search, it ain't funny.

Another wild card is Rex Ryan. He's a serious candidate for both the Jets KC and St Lou HC gig. That would open up the Ravens DC job. Great coach, great GM, great defense, but you have to deal with the maximum leader of that D, Ray Lewis.

Looks like Nolan has the Denver job, but McDermott & Williams could wait for the Baltimore job to come in play. (not to mention the Tennessee job!)

Things are fucked up

Agreed given the Senior Bowl and combine.

In addition, if Leslie Frazier gets the Rams gig they're ( Vikings) looking for a DC too. I'm guessing with Chilly's connections it would be McDermott if Reid allows him to move. Eagles have denied asst coaches moves before.

As someone noted above, wouldn't it be kosher to check with Reid and the Eagles owners to see if they'd let McDermott fly?

I wouldn't say it's a fu_ked up situation. I'd say it's the normal scramble of competing for hires.

I'm kind of up for a new, young, up-and-comer like McDermott, who might feel less pressure in a place like GB than in a place like Baltimore (if Ryan gets a head coach gig).

I'd be okay with Williams, too, though he may be using GB to drive up his salary in NO, which seems to be enamoured of him.

If MM thinks Williams is THE guy, then of course he needs to get TT to make an offer pronto.

If he's not sure, or is hot to at least interview McDermott, then I can see why he'd as soon wait.

If we end up with Mike Nolan I'm going to crap a Koala.

I thought if it was a promotion, they had to let you go.

McDermott is the more attractive candidate to me, but hell, I wanted Chilly over MM back in that time.

Nope. Only for a head coaching job. In this case, the guy has only one year left on his deal so it would be rather shitty of them to hold him back one more year.

OF course Tampa Bay would do that. John Gruden is already a big dick. He has nothing to lose in that regard.

Yeah, this is considered a lateral move by the league. That said, Reid has already blocked McDermott once and has said he won't do it again so the contract (seemingly) is irrelevant.
