I like that his potential DC, Staley runs pattern match zone concepts. I think that's the way to go in the current NFL landscape

Pure zone spot dropping like what DA ran when we didn't play man tend to get eviscerated with QB's finding open spots rather easily, while pure Man schemes can be beaten w/ designed routes to get guys open (think rub routes or bunch formations to confuse) and they also tend to struggle against running QB's.

Patter match is a good mix betwen the two and allows for some flexibility. We'd instantly stop getting gashed by running QB's. That's for sure.

I like Wink Martindale but his scheme can get Rob Ryan level absurd and that's a drawback imho.


Edit: NVM...looks like Staley is being hired as Jaguars DC
edit2: NVM article headlines was as if he'd been offerend the job, its speculation on the writers part.

Jag's hired Anthony Campanile as their DC

Even if that rumour is true, there are no Quarterbacks to go after in this draft. So, no, it shouldn't change the draft strategy at all.

You know that the FO/ incoming yet to be confirmed HC thinks this for sure?

 

[Swampy Saint]

Ha that was my exact same sentiment

Man..... you and Marsha are old.

 

[Grumpy Old Manatee]

Ima tell ya what. For the first time, if we hire K. Moore, we are getting a complete new coaching staff. To me, that brings the most excitement in years….
What’s your thoughts?

I’ll just let out a Rebel Yell and move on.

Changes nothing, you still got the same GM and his bad spending habits. I seriously think more coaches would have been fighting for this job but with the same front office, it doesn't matter what you do nothing will change.

I often wonder is the coach saying “we need this guy make it happen” and Loomis does it. I believe it has been mentioned before that he lets coaches have the reins but I have not instances I can point to.

I am but, for the record, I wasn't yet old enough to go IN the discos.

What a bummer

 

[Madmarsha]

What a bummer

Tell me about it. By the time I was old enough, the disco era was over.

Tell me about it. By the time I was old enough, the disco era was over.

You will survive, yeah yeah!

One thing that I will love about the hire, is we would have the youngest HC in the league. There could be pros and cons to that, but at least we are evolving to the “today’s” game of the NFL

I've come to the conclusion that Loomis is gonna have kill somebody to get fired, so I got tired of beating that dead horse Gayle trust him and don't wanna deal with the (football) business side of things ! And to stay on theme
That's the way she likes it ahuh ahuh,

No, I don't, but if they do think so, we're in for a bust on our 1st round pick.

We have a ton of needs on this team and there are a number of excellent players at several of those positions, with defensive line probably being the deepest amount of talented players available. It would be so far beyond foolish to spend their top 10 pick on a mediocre QB prospect when they could take a player who has the tools to have an immediate impact at another position of need (again, there are several - DE, WR, OG, DT, LB, TE) that it boggles the mind how anyone in an NFL front office would be that clueless (though I realize it happens quite often).

The smart money is to wait until next year's draft when their will be as good number of quality QBs graduating and available to draft.
