You can't cut Carr next year, so who can fix him?

I'm not the thread police, so say whatever you want, but all the arguments about whether Carr sucks, always sucked, etc. are irrelevant and missing the point of the thread.

He's here next year. Winston is not. Someone has to start. Even with a first-round rookie, they likely will not be ready to go in week one.

So who can bring in a system that is creative enough to work around his deficiencies and help elevate his game? Carr, no matter how much you think he sucks, is not at his peak with Pete Carmichael coaching him. I think we can all agree with that.

I agree with pulling from the Shannahan tree. I've wanted to run that offense here for the last three years. It fits our personnel perfectly with a complete back like Kamara and Shaheed/Olave as speed guys who can do the sweeps and end-arounds. We would absolutely need to get a TE though, and we have to do that anyway.

One guy I really felt got a bit of a raw deal in his first HC stint was Matt Nagy.

First of all, Chicago has ALWAYS been an offensive graveyard and a coaching graveyard organization in general.

In his four seasons, he led them to a division title and a couple of playoff games, one lost because his kicker kept missing field goals off the uprights, and the other of course to a dominant Saints team at the Superdome.

He was saddled by what turned out to be an awful GM in Ryan Pace, who in turn sold the farm to saddle him with an awful QB in Mitch Trubisky.

He comes from the Andy Reid coaching tree and system, which I think we can all agree has a great bit of credibility and has the innovation we all crave.

To me, the guy is at least worth the interview just as Bienemy is.

Not sure if there was some sort of personal thing that maybe I don’t know about with him as far as his player relationships and such in Chicago, but to me the guy’s resume isn’t bad considering where he was and the obstacles he faced that were outside of his control.
