Well when someone brings the data to show the plays the penalties were called when they shouldn’t have been and when they happened in the game then we can have that discussion.

Difficult to do objectively.

Bama was always notorious for receiving penalties late, when the game was already decided. The allegation/perception was that it was a “padding” exercise to make the numbers look equitable.

Maybe someone could look at the portion of penalties/yards Bama received after some sort of in-game win predictive index was greater than X%?

Idk, but I’m sure as hell not gonna do it 😅

Honestly, Salah is likely one of the better choices. I'd much rather take a second chance on him than Matt Nagy or Arthur Smith, which have been thrown around. Typically, you'd want an offensive-minded head coach to work with your first pick QB, but I'm not sure who's out there. You wonder whether Kiffin would be interested in giving it another shot in the pros. Sark might be lurking out there as well.

I've never understood this. The HC doesn't have enough time to be the primary teacher of a new QB unless he ignores all his other responsibilities. Wouldn't you want a top OC/QB coach for that?

Yeah no, he's a horrible choice. He'd be fired in 2 years.

We drove a rented one on our trip to Yellowstone this summer...now that was a super comfortable ride...I will give em that. Otherwise I don't get the price tag....other than they know a lot of people are stupid enough to pay huge money for a name tag.

You mean next year's top head coaching candidate?

A lot of 20-20 hindsight going around about Vrabel. And hey I'm here for a lot of it. However, Vrabel had Todd Downing and then Tim Kelly running the offense in his last three seasons. Before that, two successful OCs in Matt LaFleur and Arthur Smith. Both hired away as HCs. FO saw that, and for valid reasoning, wanted an offense HC.

In a sense, the HC shouldn't be the one tutoring the QB. But there aren't any other great options if you value stability.
