if you "knew" then why "With Seattle getting knocked out last night, I think Green Bay should go after Darrell Bevell for HC"

Sounds like you either didnt know he was fired, or assumed with they couldnt contact him? either or, your name should be changed

ok typo..

mc knowledge..with that name, you should know he was fired.

I guess its kind of like Ray Croc named his business McDonalds.....and probably didn't know squat about Donalds?

I had to laugh at this series of posts.

With Seattle getting knocked out last night, I think Green Bay should go after Darrell Bevell for HC. Has clearly had success in Seattle.

Bevell was fired by Seattle in January.

I think I read there are talks to keep him in Baltimore? maybe im wrong?
I am not that up on it, I read your link below, but it was rather light on details. What I heard reported earlier was that the Ravens offered the extension a couple weeks ago but Harbaugh has not signed or tried to reach or for any negotiation either. So I’m not sure if it’s actually both sides working towards an extension.

Didn't Bevell have success in Seattle? 2 Championship runs and 1 Super Bowl win?

I didn't think of Bevell until seeing Seattle/Dallas game last night. Word/memory association type of thing.

Legion of Boom ring a bell? Russell "I can run around all day and no one on the playground can catch me" Wilson and BeastMode? Bostick? It wasn't their overwhelming offensive capabilities and game plans that did it.

Yup. And when has Belichick ever succeeded as a HC outside of Cleveland? Oh wait. After failing and getting fired in Cleveland, had had some success in his 2nd HC job in NE.

Wow. Maybe if you fail at one job doesnt mean you suck.
Well put. I’m not holding McDaniels one stint as a HC in Denver against him. I don’t know if he is THE guy for GB, but he has to be considered IMO.

IF Harbaugh is "available" it will be at the cost of a draft pick or 2. Rumor has it Miami & Tampa are interested in parting with picks to trade for Harbaugh. I vote "no" on trading for a coach unless it's Andy Reid ;).

Ok...so Super Bowl winning teams don't run designed plays? Got it. Bevell helped the offense transition more into a pass oriented offense before getting fired. I think a lack of a capable O-Line had something to do with his firing. Bevell was the scapegoat for bad personnel decisions.

The best Seahags teams won with their defense. They compensated for the disintegration of the LOB this year by developing the #1 rushing attack in the league, and their defense wasn’t too shabby either. It comes down to coaching, working with what ya got, and being consistent. I hate giving credit to Pete Carrol, but he’s done a very good job in Seattle.

I don’t know who the next HC will be, but I do hope he makes a commitment to run the ball. MM was very inconsistent in using the running game. I know, I know, we have #12. But when the D can afford to ignore the running game and cover receivers like blankets, well, even ARod can’t succeed consistently with that game plan.

So he got fired? With Wilson and Lynch, and that def? dig deeper to get your answer why he shouldnt be a HC

Is he a leader of men? Does he hold players accountable? Can he get his message across to every player on the team besides the offensive side? Will he hire the right guys for his staff? Will he keep his nose clean and not cheat as he's been implicated in the past?

I could continue, but I think you get the point. It's not good enough to just be an offensive minded guy, with limited skills in other areas. Not saying that he doesn't have these things, but he's never had them on display in the NFL as the head man, and he's had an opportunity. What he did to the Colts is disturbing and alarming to me.

These are legitimate concerns.
I’d rather have a HC who runs all aspects of the game, and relies on exceptional coordinators and coaches. MM was a glorified OC in GB, and the D and STs suffered due to a lack of oversight and accountability.

Yet Seattle fired him as their OC almost a year ago, hasn't coached since and he is being interviewed by the Falcons for the same position and you want to hire him as the HC?

McDaniels hired some good assistants with the Colts before he backed out. Eberflus was a great hire. Something to consider about him.

I don't get it. He went so far as to choosing assistant coaches before he signed on the dotted line?:confused:

That makes more sense, I don't think a whole lot of teams have been thinking about Bevell as a HC either.

Well an interview couldn't hurt. Plus, if he is hired by Atlanta, and they have another losing season, who do you think will succeed Quinn?
