If it was me, the armored truck would be in Norman, OK right now. I would hire Riley in a heartbeat.
Lincoln Riley.
^^ This^^ Dimitroff has to go as well, I have never understood some of the decisions that he has made, especially in the drafts...
I would like to see Lincon Riley
I'm not a fan of the NFL but Lincoln Riley does seem like a good fit for the "Falcons". I think it would be a dumb move for Lincoln tho. I'm sure Oklahoma can match any contract the Falcons can offer. I think he has a better job right now than any NFL team can offer
If the $ are even , is an NFL job better than College HC ???
seems like NFL better..... don’t have to recruit 247
I don't see any value in firing a coach in-season unless the wheels come completely off. Who knows it's possible Quinn rights the ship.
I think he'll be at the top of many wish lists. The Falcons have hired a slew of HCs who came in very sought after only to crash and burn after a bit of success though.
Does it really matter?
I guess both have their perks. Probably the hours are the same, but the ones in the NFL are more focused on football (and managing superstar drama, I’m sure).
There are some more suited to one or the other, and a handful (like Pete Carroll) who have been successful at both (and some, like Jim Mora, Jr., who are terrible at both).
We've had two straight "defensive" coaches. Its time to get a young offensive innovator.
This seems like the consensus. We should target Lincoln Riley, and if he won't bite, then maybe Eric Bieniemy. Does that about sum it up?
Any other good options out there?
We haven't even talked about the GM spot. I think that's one reason Mike McCarthy's name keeps coming up. Blank might give him the keys to the whole thing.
I also wondered if Blank might try to pry Howie Roseman away from Philly, then let him make the decision on HC. But Roseman is under contract through 2022, so I doubt that's feasible.
Eagles VP of Football Operations might deserve a chance to be a GM. Pretty impressive resume:
Would you approve of a Harvard man, @YaleDawg ?!?! 😁
Hey @Teddy, it looks like another Chinese bot came through and DV'ed all of my posts on this thread for no rhyme or reason, if you want to check it out.
