Given that Weaver has the "assistant HC" title, he likely won't be let go for anything other than an HC position.2025 Ratpickers champion.Comment

I think a lot depends on what happens in Baltimore. If MacDonald leaves, Weaver is likely next in line as DC. But if MacDonald stays, it's possible Harbaugh won't stop Weaver from pursuing A DC job if he wants to leave.Originally posted by MadScientist View PostI can't run no more

It's a tough choice. I might have said Vrabel, but I think he would only take a head coaching job. I honestly never heard of Hewitt, but I don't really like the idea of somebody whose experience is limited to one aspect, passing. Several of those older guys just seem to me to be lateral moves from Barry.
Aranda seemed to be a really good original thinker with the Badgers and apparently did a good job at LSU also. He didn't do nearly as good a job as Baylor HC. It seems to me that Jim Leonhard was a follower of Aranda but less innovative.
I recently watched the "Monk" movie ....... "I could be wrong now, but I don't think so".
Joe, I'm curious, why is Aranda's name in italics or whatever - different print style than the others?Last edited by texaspackerbacker; 01-24-2024, 01:34 PM.What could be more GOOD and NORMAL and AMERICAN than Packer Football?Comment

Too many choices and I know too little about most of them.
Some old school sexy names on there, but I don't know if the game has passed some of them by (Ryan, Zimmer)
I think I might lean towards someone less experienced but with fresher ideas who can communicate well who can relate to and LEAD the players.Comment

I didn’t care for Aranda at UWThe measure of who we are is what we do with what we have.

The Dolphins announce that Vic Fangio will not return as DC for the 2024 season.
Last offseason, Fangio reportedly signed a three-year deal worth more than $4.5 million annually. Given the new reports that the Eagles expect to land him, he'll probably earn even more this year.I can't run no more

I want a young up and comer. There is a huge culture change with the new generations, and Millenials have a better chance of reaching them than the older generations.
The guys who rise fast in the top defenses and are maybe 40 years old would be the guys I’d feel best with.
I think there is a ton of value in a first time coordinator. The excitement and ambition that comes with getting your chance is such a powerful motivator.
Bobby Babbich is getting interviewed in New York. Daboll got to work with him in Buffalo. McDermott just kept giving him more responsibilities in that defense.
He’s another name.Formerly known as JustinHarrell.Comment

No retreads. Give a younger guy a chance. Someone who is hungry. Someone who can work 80+ hours a week with no hesitation.It's such a GOOD feeling...13 TIME WORLD CHAMPIONS!!Comment

Exactly!!! Even better if he has no wife and kids.Originally posted by King Friday View Post
Bobby Babbich is 40 years old. Son of a college head coach. He’s been a football guy his whole life. I don’t see any wife or kids in the picture on his wiki profile.
He worked secondary under McDermott and Frazier in Buffalo and then was moved to linebackers, expanding his resume.
There’s no way to know if any of these guys have the eye of the tiger as a play caller, but this guy has a background that can’t be beat.Formerly known as JustinHarrell.Comment

They better get to interviews. We have a young, proven head coach. We have a young, exciting quarterback. We have some really nice defensive pieces.
We could easily be first choice for a lot of these young ambitious up and comers. Get in while you fit in because you don’t want to be sorting through scraps and hiring another old retread who can’t relate to the young players.Formerly known as JustinHarrell.Comment
