Report: Vrabel's OC could be McDaniels [mod edit] (1 Viewer)

[DeuceMcAllisterFan]

Never been a fan of McDaniels.

What has he ever done without Brady at QB?

He took Mac Jones to the playoffs and made him look like a star while having the 6th rated offense in 2021.

Based on what Underhill and Trip talked about, if you keep Carr in 2025 you pay 30mil this year and 20mil in 2026 regardless if he’s on the team or not.

If you cut him you pay 50mil this year and you’re clean in 2026.

No matter what, this is a two year job. I think Denver/SP set a good model for what you’re able to do w/ good coaching and a limited Cap.

We should cut Carr and roll w/ Spencer. And that’s me making a hard left from what I felt around 5pm yesterday

I'm not a cap guru but I thought if Carr accepted a trade some of cap hit would be transferred to the receiving team.

If McDaniel's became the OC, Carr would immediately ask to be released or traded...

I’d rather pass on that combo honestly. Vrabel did get a raw deal with the Titans, but I’m not sure he could do much with this roster. McDaniels is a bit of a head case. Not sure I’d even prefer him to Kubiak.

I'm not sure, perhaps they could drum up a trade market.

Personally, I didn't like Carr's PR handling of saying he wouldn't take a paycut, unprompted. Katt Terrel didn't ask him about it, he just spewed it out. While Carr has played well, he's also not played 50million well. If he's cut, no team is going to pay him 30 mil (which I think is what the other team would be on hook for), so it's unlikely that they'll trade for him at that price either.

Vrable nor McDaniels are coming to New Orleans.

This has New England written all over it.

While Josh McDaniels is somehow worse of a head coach then Dennis Allen, he's still a good coordinator.

When he had Tom Brady, sure he was.

Carr has a no-trade clause IIRC.

Carr has a no-trade clause IIRC.

Yep. He would have to agree to a trade and he likely would not do that without it being a playoff contender with either a guarantee to pay his current salary or a new long term deal with a new team. None of that seems likely to happen.

You might need to look at the 2008, 2021, and 2022 NFL seasons...lol. I would not want him as an HC but I would take him every day of the week and twice on Sunday as an OC.

Give me some context, what ma I looking at outside of the cap hit?

Since this is a Vrabel thread, you think he'll waive that NTC with McDaniels as the OC?

 

[MikeyF]

Carr has a no-trade clause IIRC.

That is why I said he would ask to be traded...
A no-trade clause only means that he has to approve any trade.

 

[Elvis]

Carr has a no-trade clause IIRC.

I think his point is that there is no way Carr would want to work for Josh McDaniels again and would want to find a way out of NO if he were hired.
