McCarthy wants to hire game theorists. .

Maybe its your hearing that is the problem. Re-read that article again and tell me what PFF did for him. It wasn't clear it was analytics at all.

Because what he said PFF did for him was this: https://twitter.com/PFF_Sam/status/1210581980250808320

You must've read the article at NFL.com by former Packer beat writer, Tom Pelissero. I refrain from reading articles at NFL.com or Packers.com b/c it's akin to living in North Korea and getting your news from the Kim Jong Times. I was referencing Peter King. No, not that bigoted politician from New York. Talking about the greying scribe that is totally cool with his daughter being a lesbian. Plus, King once wrote, eloquently, an argument in favor of the annihilation of the name "Redskins." Suffice it to say, the King I'm taking about is a bloody lib--Imma stop myself before Mad gets mad.

In the span of three meetings with the 56-year-old McCarthy in the tundra last week, one slide on his deck spoke volumes about where he’s at with the future. It’s his football tech plan.

There’s a flow chart for his proposed 14-person Football Technology Department, including a six-person video unit and an eight-person analytics team. The Chief of Football Technology tops the department, which will run both video and analytics. The top analytics lieutenants will be a Coordinator of Database Management, Coordinator of Football Analytics and Coordinator of Mathematical Innovation. Below them: Football Technology Engineer and two Football Technology Analysts. And finally, a Football Technology Intern. McCarthy spent a day last summer at Pro Football Focus offices in Cincinnati, discovering how much more data is available than he realized. PFF data will be a key component of his analytics tree, as will GPS tracking of players and Next Gen Stats.

Apparently, McCarthy thinks there are plenty of teams out there with ownerships akin to Packers'. In the Packers' system, profits flow back to the football operation, not the "owners" holding worthless stocks. Good luck to McCarthy in his quest to find a greed-fucked NFL owner willing to fork the bill for a "14-person Football Technology Department".

PS: I ain't a math prodigy, but I've passed the CPA exams. I'd be more than happy to join McCarthy's team for 10 bucks an hour since I currently make the minimum-wage.

I stand corrected. Pelissero did a poor job communicating that if he saw it. I am glad he is leaning toward this.

Kitchens fired by Cleveland.

Glad Dorsey and E. Wolf didn't try to hire LaFleur.

[pbmax]

That was fast. And deserved.

Report Ron Rivera has emerged as top candidate for Redskins job. http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap300...e-for-redskins

Makes sense. He looked super rattled in his post game presser.

[Fosco33]

McCarthy wants to hire game theorists. Dorsey just got rid of Cleveland’s analytics department. “We ain’t need no math nerds”, qouteth Dorsey. Besides, Kitchen ain’t black. He ain’t going anywhere soon. Only black coaches get the one-n-done treatment, yo.

I have put $20 on McCarthy coaching the Seagulls next season. Schneider has been engaged in a fishy conspiracy to overthrow Carroll since #35 of the Packers sealed McCarthy’s fate with that dropped Larry Brown pick, along with a little help from Crosby (missed fg that woulda sent game to OT).

McCarthy and Schneider are buds. Schneider even set McCarthy up with a - married - MILF, or so I heard.

Kitchens fired...

Why would anyone want the Washington job? Why would anyone want the Cleveland job? Dallas and Carolina seem to be the best job openings to me.

My uninformed, shoot from the hip, wild speculation is this year we see more retreats vs the next-Sean-McVay types of last year. Everybody but Matty Ice basically busted it seems. I think guys like Riveria and McCarthy are extremely desirable and qualified candidates. I still don't understand why Carolina moved on from Ron. He's a good coach it seems.

I think a lot of reallly good coaches would not want to work with Jerry Jones

Not so sure I agree but I frankly have no idea. To me, Jerry is pretty hands off and very loyal. You have a lonngggg leash, or Garrett would have been gone long ago. That + their talent makes the job very desirable in my opinion.

[pbmax]

Forget McVay or SHanny. Given Kliff Kingsbury's success in turning around the Cardinals offense, time to go Air Raid in the NFL.

I think Jerry Jones would not want to work with (what media shitheads consider) a lot of really good coaches.

Are you going for the MrAynRand award for sarcasm? Or do you really mean it? I actually tend to agree. I like Kingsbury and Air Raid.
