But, had you watched it live - would it have been with GB sports broadcasters?

I had the choice of watching either the U.S. broadcast or in French.

Sorry misunderstood. The ingame broadcasters are the same as you get there. All the stuff outside that, the "studio" guys when it's half time or a timeout is different. Although it's still mainly Americans. The main guy is British but also guys like Jason bell, Will Blackmon, Tory Holt, Jeff Reinebold and Osi Umenyiora. Rob Ryan used to be on there too but not anymore.

I really like Amarumo and I think he deserves a shot. He may even be the better HC of the 2.

But Gannon has 17 years on him and I think he can put the better staff together and be better long term.

It's a tough choice and I won't be disapointed with either.

I don't know who would be the better HC between Lou and Gannon. But I would rather one of them than Kafka. The Cards can't go into next season with Vance Joseph running the defense. Even if Lou or Gannon kept VJ they would be calling the shots more than likely. With Kafka my fear would be they keep VJ and the DC and it's last year rinse and repeat.
I lean more towards Lou today.
Just hire the dude so he can form his staff, please.

For me it really comes down to the OC they hire if the concern is Kyler, we need a HC who is a leader of men and can manage the overall... hence, he does not have to be the OC per say but better have a good one in tow

Yes that too. I think the decision may very well come down to the staff both of them propose. The FO may well end up hiring the overall team rather than the HC.

I just hope it coincides with some input from the head coach, getting a staff which can gel together. This team needs to start drafting talent that fits the scheme as Monti stated and this head coach needs guys who fit his approach. I just hope Michael Bidwill allows the Mountie to get his man... cueing Quebec lol

My number 1 after Payton went to Denver was Gannon and Anarumo was 2. The more time has gone on they have become way more equal, also I am not sure how to feel about the SB collapse last night. Philly fans are livid with Gannon and want him gone and Cincy fans still dont want Anarumo to leave. Very very tough choice. Plus if it is Gannon then expect more dissing coming our way.

Is there any truth to Bienemy coming over with one of the HC candidates?

Well, when Keim was onboard, it seems dropping 'f' bombs was his criteria for a great coach during an interview, still remembering Keim's commentary when he met with Arians and what he liked about him
I dont want to hear that man's name ever again

Bringing in a new defensive HC to run VJ's "system" would be peak #Birdshitty football.
Or Vance is told to run the new system. Maybe it gets Vance to bail???

Edit: Any good coach can coach the system they are given...It doesn't and shouldn't have to be "their" system. Also, most of the defensive players love Vance as a person and coach, not necessarily because of the system he runs...more about how he treats them.

I really think Bieniemy will surprise a lot of people once he gets away from Reid's shadow.
