    But this just isnt true. He was the OC for both the 49ers and Raiders transition from Glory to Joke and then OC'd a horrendous NC State team. Who knows whats been going on in the CFL, the only CFL I have ever seen is when they show it during beer or tv commercials because they cant get NFL rights. he had success in SF and Oakland and won a bowl game at NC St., for which he wasn't there long enough to bring in his own players to run his offense. he's won two grey cups in montreal. i'd consider that success.

    it was more a shot at the chargers.

    it's a risky hire, to be sure. but at least it's not an uninformed hire or a hire based on glitz and emotion. Is that a shot at the Eagles? no, i think the eagles made a great hire, actually.
  4. Magnetic Curses
    i'll also point out that trestman will be the first head coach to call offensive plays since mike ditka, so that should make the meatballs happy.
  5. Magnetic Curses
    Wasn't he reluctant to become the DC in the first place? I could even see him becoming a D-line coach if Lovie becomes a DC. He's under contract to likely make more as a DC than as a D-Line coach under Lovie somewhere else. However, Rod can't be liking the future successes of the defense for the Bears. It's an aging group and the new regime is probably going to be drafting pretty heavy on the offensive side of the ball. I wouldn't be surprised if he decided to go somewhere else. if we don't release him from his contract can he even coach in the NFL next year?

    people will understand if the defense takes a step back. but with all the talk about personnel fitting the scheme, i think emery will do all he can to retain marinelli if trestman wants him. marinelli's mentor monte kiffin weathered several regimes in tampa.
  8. Magnetic Curses
    perfect fit for him there. makes total sense.
  9. Magnetic Curses
    he'll have significant input, just like lovie had input in the selection of tommie harris and tank johnson and the acquisition of ogunleye in forming his d-line. trestman will get the same.

  11. Magnetic Curses
    and you're denying the input that trestman will have into personnel decisions, that's an indefensible corner.
  12. Magnetic Curses
    he's going to cut or otherwise release several players, i'm sure. he'll bring in guys that fit his system or whom he feels are better than what he has. i don't know what is so hard to understand about that. He won't be the one bringing them in. That is the point. he won't be the only one bringing them in. your argument has now morphed into a rigid "only personnel guys make personnel decisions." to support your original thesis. i don't know why you paint yourself into corners like that.
  13. Magnetic Curses
    and emery's soliloquy about "synergy" means that a lot of people will have input. not just the "personnel guys". that includes the head coach, whom he said will have a lot of input into the personnel. again, did you not hear the emery pc?

    when did i say i wanted an extension for lovie? i supported lovie until this year when it was obvious he wasn't concerned with how the offense performed. you supported him, too. i don't think i ever indicated i wanted an extension for him, though. i could be wrong.
  16. Magnetic Curses
    I'm not implying it, I'm saying it. Trestman will not have a huge say on the specific players brought in. His scheme will effect which way Emery goes, and in August he will be the one making decisions on whether to cut guys or not, but he won't be Bill Parcells shopping for his own groceries, a post-Super Bowl Lovie getting specific names he wants. If the offensive line is going to be "reformed" it is going to have to come from personnel men making the right decisions on offensive lineman that are not currently in the organization. did you even listen to emery's press conference? you've taken an idiotic stance and now you're married to it because of your inability to admit that you've ever been wrong.

    http://jacksonville.com/tu-online/stories/081797/1c1rice_.html the fact that jerry rice was upset that he felt he was used incorrectly doesn't mean that he was used incorrectly. i find those comments irrelevant because they are about him not liking his personal role, not the fact that the role was actually effective.
  18. Magnetic Curses
    Lovie's effect on personnel decisions did not come into play as much until after he made it to the Super Bowl. i don't think so. lovie had a huge effect o how that d-line was put together, including the tommie harris and tank johnson picks. it was a complete 180 from the jauron era. That was more of an influence in what type of player they needed, not the actual individuals taken. They needed a DT to run the defense. The key is the personnel people selecting the right one. Trestman has been out of the NFL for 8 years, he's not going to be the one selecting offensive linemen. to imply he's not going to have a huge say in it is wrong.

    i will point out that rodgers is less willing to throw into double and triple coverage than jay and will take a sack to avoid an interception. he takes a lot of coverage sacks. his oline is a lot better than ours, but still, his personnel isn't fantastic.
  21. Magnetic Curses
    it's going to be real easy for trestman to address the offensive line with the names out there and the fact that not all of them will be franchised. the draft is also real OL-heavy with our future center for the next 10-12 years being there at #20, i'm sure. it's not really a job for trestman to take on. It's the personnel people that have to make the difference here. i'm sure he'll have an effect on personnel just like lovie had an effect on personnel.

    NICE!

    What a meatball he pretty much hit on all of the meatball things except for calling for ditka to be rehired.
  25. Magnetic Curses
    Is it just me, or is every single CBS sports writer a raging meathead? meatball. if he were a meathead he'd call trestman a little dweeb. That was kinda how the tone of the article came off. Between Dodd, Parrish, Goodman, Freeman, Judge, and Frisco, it seems like CBS is trying to build a team of sports writers that can beat up other places' sports writers and steal their lunch money. according to smack, freeman would steal lunch money and then lie about knowing what lunch money even is.
