Matt Patricia likely to take Lions or Giants HC job (UPDATE)

[Soliel]

Will Rex Ryan take over Patricia's job? That word is out there but I doubt its plausibility. Two strong leaders don't mix. But in this crazier-every-day world, who knows,

Wow, I hope not. May actually find a sure bet tall building to jump off if that happens

 

[fnordcircle]

I'd love Rex here as DC but I don't think his defensive philosophy could ever mesh with Belichick's so in my head that's a non-starter.

It's Friday afternoon so I am a little punch drunk, but does anyone else think it would be weirdly and hilariously awesome (if Matty P. left) for Rex Ryan to become the defensive coordinator for the Pats? The Hoodie and the Footie. Years of hilarity could ensue, particularly if they gave back-to-back press conferences.

No. We like to win.

As much as I think it would do Rex's coaching career a world of good to work under BB, I don't think either one of there egos could take the other. The bigger question is if Patricia would hire Fredo to be his DC.

Rex no longer has a coaching career.

The Giants don't want Josh, Matty P is their #1 choice.

I think that makes the most sense which deflates my first thought gee it must be awkward in the coaches meeting for those 2 being the 3 finalists.

The Pats offense could return some favors to Josh by crushing the Tians 45-10 and get Josh the Titans job.

Ryan's coached some great Ds. But I don't think his philosophy matches with what Belichick prefers. Moreover, I don't know if Ryan's happy going back to a back row personality.

Interesting tidbit The Colts GM and Josh McDaniels has the same agent.
This Agent has 3 different set of NFL headcoaches and GMs pairings that share the same agent.
If it's nothing else it's a interesting fact.

Rex wouldn't be able to get his foot thru the door if he wanted to come here, I know thats an idea BB wouldn't tap his toes over

There has been alot of speculation about the connection between those two and this certainly is an interesting factoid

Tribute to Matty p. I admit I had a few and rolled bones...

Ian Rappaport just tweeted that the Colts have their search narrowed to two head coaches.
Vrabel and McDaniels.
Be prepared to kiss Josh goodbye,unless they think he may turn it down.
Guess we will see.

Argh.

It's kinda like your buddy dating a chick you freaking hate.

I wouldn't want Mcdaniels taking the dolts job especially after the deflate gate ********! Not one single patriot.

Assuming the departure of Josh and/or Matt Patricia does happen, hopefully they don’t bring a lot of the Patriots coaching staff with them. Bill is getting a bit old for a complete rebuilding his coaching staff.

I eagerly await the return of Eric Mangini.

@AdamSchefter: Good chance the Patriots lose both coordinators to HC jobs, but LB coach Brian Flores is very much in play in Arizona, per league sources, meaning New England could potentially lose three assistants to HC jobs.

 

[maineman209]

I eagerly await the return of Eric Mangini.

As director of video-taping?

 

[BaconGrundleCandy]

Flores was my guy. That would be terrible.

Unleash the Belichildren.
