Cards Hire Jonathan Gannon as New HC

[QuebecCard]

Well at least he was the guy that figured out how to use Reddick. Let's see if has a plan for Simmons/Collins that pays off as well.

How to use Reddick was figured out in a 12-sack final season in AZ.

Not keeping him in the desert was Keim's decision, not VJ's.

I wouldn't be shocked if LB coach Nick Rallis is brought over by Gannon to be the DC

Philadelphia Eagles

Unless the Eagles promote him. He might get to pick his future.

I mean say what about the superbowl, Gannon guided one of the NFLs best defenses this season. #7 in scoring defense and 1st in yard-per-game. That much of a pedigree alone makes him infinitely more qualified than Kliff Kingsbury ever was.

Still, how good of a head coach he will be is a complete mystery. Too many variables and unknowns to make any kind of solid conclusion.

What is certain is that he has the opportunity of a lifetime. Let's hope he makes the most of it.

The optimist in me likes that the HC and GM should be on the same page for a change. If Will Anderson or Jalen Carter are drafted they should get some reps as rookies.

Well specifically the Chiefs abused his man coverage repeatedly

In the first half, enough to make half time adjustments? Chiefs had 80 yards or so at half time and one offensive touchdowns. SMH.

Just something to complain about.

For me.....

Any outside coach > VJ or any other internal hire.

As Peter Griffin said, "Now we play the waiting game"....

 

[TheCardFan]

Still work to do on staff...

I want EB as OC and VJ gone.

 

[Azjose86]

The guy already is 0-1 in that stadium.

 

[Jetstream Green]

God forbid we hire a coach who people feel is not qualified due to what they perceive as red flags for his defense's performance in the second half of a Super Bowl... you know, the big dance we seldom ever attend except that one time there was a blue moon in 2009 lol

Love this...

 

[Goodyear Card]

Jonathan Gannon hired by Cardinals: Eagles lose defensive coordinator

Nick Sirianni’s coaching staff is going to look significantly different next season.

NGL I feel a bit better after this.

Better than Kliff, he went 0-8 this season!

 

[Zalixar]

He's gunna give a whole new meaning to the forty-whiners, with a taste of the teet two weeks ago.

Correct and then they made adjustments attacking his rush 4 man coverage and went on to score on every possession and the only incompletion was a throw away.

That's the point. He is really really passive.

Both of these are incorrect lol. I get the sentiment though.

Kyler's behavior was really like in awe, "wow, I am meeting a real NFL coach", while Gannon when he hears he is in the facility acts like a parent when someone tells him their kid is doing something wrong lol

TBF we blitzed Mahomes a ton and Vance got ripped for that since Mahomes is best against the blitz. You really have no chance against Mahomes unless you can get to him with 4. I think the loose field just killed the Eagles edge rush and that was the ballgame.

That is encouraging for sure.

he's got some juice, that's for sure

I love the energy. He jogged over to meet Kyler.

I'm a big believer in tone setters. If you can get people to be on the same page and to believe in your program, you have a chance to build something.

 

[Vacard]

Mahomes got the ball off pretty quickly most the game, and in someone's analysis of the Eagles' Dline, they slipped on 38% of dropbacks.

Their whole strength is on their Dline and they got neutered, because they are built on speed around the edge. Chiefs are built on bull rush.

Hopefully he’ll learn

 

[RON_IN_OC]

He’s 1-1.

Siriani is 1-1.
