how do brissett and jimmy g look? neither is very good. so what did he do for them except fit them into new england's offense for short stays

Duce was my #1 choice, but McDaniel is definitely an intriguing option.

After firing Chip we went with his antithesis, now we're sort of doing the same thing in the opposite direction.

This could result in some really good short term results, and if McDaniels's emotional intelligence has improved even slightly since his failed Denver gig, this might work out long term as well.

One thing we know about Josh is that he schemes to his talent.  So we're not dealing with another Chip Kelly here as far as offensive philosophy.

His people skills were non-existent in Denver, but failure and time tends to mellow people out.

Thing to keep in mind here is that we're also getting a new defensive coordinator.  Schwartz simply put was already "figured out" when we hired him.  At no point in time did our defense under Schwartz confuse opposing offenses, which is kind of the point when it comes to play calling.  It's hard to believe we can do worse than Gym Shorts.

And of course we got our new draft guru, who like McDaniel comes to Philly with a reputation for being a pain in the @ss to deal with.

One thing is for sure, the post-Chip kumbaya era is over.  Lurie 2.0 isn't content just sitting back and smiling.  Dorsey is gonna change the culture of our front office.  McDaniels is gonna change the culture of our lockerroom.

Buckle up, this has boom or bust written all over it.

His claim to fame was the ability to win with the GOAT @ QB.   Reminds me of Gase.  Was great when he 'coached' Peyton Manning.    We'll see but he wouldn't be my choice.

Football is too much of a team sports to really throw the "GOAT" label on anyone.

If Phillip Rivers gets drafted by New England and Brady gets drafted by the Chargers, we'd probably be talking about Rivers collection of rings and Brady's lack of them right now.

Tom is a clutch.  Can't deny that.  With 2 minutes left in a one score game, I can't think of anyone better to close it out.  If there's a good comparable for Brady, it's Mariano Rivera.

Barry is my baseball GOAT

You're right, neither of them are good even as seasoned vets.  And Cassell has had mostly bad seasons since leaving the Pats.

This is why the 2.35 points per drive the Pats got with these QBs was impressive.  That number would have been closer to 2.5 if McDaniels wasn't forced to play Brissett when Brissett had a broken throwing hand.

Josh will get the most out of whatever talent you give him.  Question is is Wentz actually talented?

Lol didn’t you just say that you can’t cheat the game and be considered the GOAT?
