Is Brian Flores really ready to become a HC???

I would think Flores needs to establish himself as a defensive coordinator for a few years before jumping up the ranks to head coach. Broncos learned the hard way with Vance Joseph.

Flores' interviews reportedly off and running

Has he adopted and sustained your campaign of cat like quickness? If so, he might be able to coach but if not then no

I believe Flores is Hispanic (Hondurian).

He's both.

He's both.

I suppose that since Honduras is in Central America you could say that any black latino could be Afro American, but Latinos don't consider themselves Afro anything, just black or negro. Afro American is a term typically used by U.S.A. blacks.

I don’t think he’s a bad head coach. I just think he needed to cut his teeth a little bit more as a DC before becoming one. His first year wasn’t a good start, though. Took a team that went to the playoffs last year, with more weapons on both sides, and missed the playoffs in a much more wide open year.

More weapons on offense? Wouldn’t agree there.

Lost Delanie Walker week 1. Plus Dion wasn’t that impressive for them this year. Basically just switched him out with Murray. Losing Conklin also hurt their protection.

They were ravaged with injuries on both sides of the ball. Lost Conklin, Walker, Ryan, Casey, just to name a few. By the week 17 showdown vs. Indy they were completely depleted.

They missed the playoffs by one game and Mariota missed several games and quarters due to injuries. Gabbert went 1-3 in games where he played the most and Mariota went 8-4 in his games. Mariota also lost 2 games by 1 point each. Context.

Mariota only missed one more game than he did last season. Losing two games by one point each doesn’t necessarily speak highly of the first year coach, either. Vrabel will get better but he would have done well to cut his teeth a bit more. He rose up the ranks very quickly. I suspect he will come in to next season quite a bit better.

I like Flores, but he isn't ready to be an HC in the NFL.

He sure as heck is ready to interview for those positions though.

We work together. It takes time for the players to physically improve.

 

[Racervx54]

No he's not ready...

 

[Ochmed Jones]

No he's not ready...

Could not agree more. He needs at least another 3 years of dc experience.

Dorsey, Highsmith, Wolf, Berry, Jimmy Haslam, and JW (Haslam's son-in-law) all got off the plane from Flores interview

Jump at the $$

That's okay. Flores hasn't impressed me with his D this year. Most of the success in the passing D is because of A) the talent level in the secondary and B) most teams are running on the Pats all day rendering the pass D moot.

They should have learned the hard way with McDaniels years ago.

Yep, his plan seems to be putting a grip of defensive backs out there like a dime and dare anyone to run. I’m not liking the dynamic of that
