Schefter Report: Falcons Plan to Hire Raheem Morris as Head Coach for 2024 season

[Toofy]

The most interesting thing about his is seeing if Zac Robinson goes with him to Atlanta as OC.

It's obvious but wait Atlanta has no QB unless cousins goes there or they trade for fields .

So McKay wins. Let's see, how many championship teams has he built? Good riddance to the Falcons

The bit of good news for the Patriots is any concern that Belichick would have his team bid for Dugger this year and Peppers or Barmore next year.

Anyone who thinks Belichick is no longer a good coach has absolutely no idea about football.

Not sure anyone thinks that but that isn’t the issue. The issue is Bill has been awful with personnel and coaching hires. Can’t just take the coach, gotta take the whole thing.

Bet he ends up with the Giants next year when they fire Daboll

Best coach of all time unemployed old age catches up with all of us.
Him and Carrol were forced out.

I bet BB never thought it would be so hard to get another HC job.

Not a bad idea to look into. Sadly I think this means Josh McDaniels is our favorite for OC now that he can't ride Bill's coattails somewhere.

We can do worse than Josh. I think we all want a McVeigh disciple but despite being a terrible HC, he is a decent offensive coordinator.

It’s not the end of the world if he’s back. We should actually be in a bit of panic mode. Might be wise to get on the phone with Josh before he finds some job elsewhere.

I don’t think Robinson is coming here.

I personally think BB didn’t really fancy any of the jobs available. He’s waiting for the eagles spot to open up. That would be the best situation, hands-down. If not, he’ll sit the year out.

I actually think other teams simply did their homework. The only team that should’ve considered him was one that had the talent to win now and that was Dallas.

Once they passed it felt like Bill would be hard pressed to get a job.

I looked at Morris' career again and it's slightly more of an interesting hire than I initially thought. If you assume he got that first HC job before he was ready and that he deserves a second chance then since that first stint he was on the ATL staff that we beat and the Rams team that recently won. Interesting enough he's listed as the passing game coordinator and assistant HC during his time in ATL.

 

[Dedhampatsfan]

In my mind the ideal scenario is Vrabel not getting a job and comes back to the Pats for his gap year and is the DC/assistant HC and mentors Mayo. In my mind a McDaniel/Vrabel combo as your coordinators would give you a MONSTER head start on this year. That combo would allow Mayo do what he does best, which is LEAD the operation

I can see Josh coming back. If Vrabel would come here as DC that would be a win!

Eagles hired Fangio as DC. Bill will not go there. Giants more likely

Hold on, I thought we could have got a kings ransom in draft picks for him?

Let me just go ahead and eat crow here - I was sure we would get a 2nd rounder minimum. I was obviously very wrong.

No teams just didn't want him

Well, we disagree (coaching hire, well, specifically one coaching hire, Patricia yes, but for that thing to be determinative is crazy). The drafts pre-2020 were bad for 4 years, but there was a lot of wasted draft capital to put the team over the top before that. Last 4 years the drafts have been good/fine.

I just think the Rams D plays pattycake and that it's pretty soft. We'll see though

 

[upstater1]

I can't understand why Seattle wouldn't go after him.

The last time Belichick replaced Carroll, the team won a super Bowl in his second year.

 

[Ross12]

I think Vrabel not getting the job is even weirder. He seems like such a good candidate to me? Why wouldn’t any of the teams want him?

 

[PatsFan2]

Tough wasted year for Bill if that's the case. None of us saw this coming admit it.
