David Blough and the Offensive Staffing Thread

[Conn]

Guess who will be taking over Mariota's slot....oh boy

That would be excellent except that he’ll be looking for (and receiving) a bridge starter job probably earning over $20M.

I know some people here have a weird emotional thing with Cousins (understandable), but he’d undoubtedly be an incredible backup and mentor for Jayden. And win some games when needed.

It’ll be interesting to see what Mariota does, though. Probably depends where Kliff lands, if anywhere.

Ringing endorsement.

I don’t really drink. This makes me want to.

That's honestly makes Penix sound like a complete moron.

 

[Riggo44]

You kind of brushed over by far the most important aspect of their situations lol. As if it’s a minor detail.

It was also said very tongue in cheek.

Sure Mariota goes elsewhere and I am fine with it. He did a great job for us but we need Daniels' healthy to make a superbowl run. The 5 million we get from sighing someone for 3 million, added to a CB, $20,000,000 versus 15,000,00. Is going to mean alot

In Nov Penix was asked if he leans on a former quarterback or one of his coaches to help him assess his performance during games, Penix Jr. said: “You’re saying as far as on the field stuff?…No. Like mentally, my fiancée is always there for me. So, I know whenever I get home, it doesn’t matter how I play, she’s always gonna be there for me…But, as far as, you know, as far as like physically the on the field stuff, it’s not nobody that I’ll talk to like as far as another quarterback or anything like that, you know, I do have, people reach out to me. I do have a quarterback coach, though, back at home, that reach out to me as well, you know, tell me, ‘hey, like you need to clean this up, clean that up.’”

This reads like one of those bad AI Facebook quotes that gets posted on DurtyBurdZ4Lyfe fan page.

I hope you’re right that we’ll be spending that amount on individual FA’s

I mean, why wouldn’t he?

At this point I think we could hire Spurrier back and people would post positive articles.

Falcons coach frustrated by viral clip of Michael Penix Jr.

A viral clip of quarterback Michael Penix Jr. led to incorrect assumptions about the support system he has within the Falcons, coach Raheem Morris says.

www.espn.com

Penix was asked Friday to clarify what he meant during the news conference, but he declined, saying everyone in the Falcons facility knows the truth.

Could be it was all taken out of context and he was thinking of outside help not inside or he really felt like he hadn’t received any help. Either way, I’m not thrilled with this hire, but I don’t know shit.

Penix seems to not be that smart. Unfortunate for that organization.

 

[RWJ]

Personally. not a fan of this. Dad was a SB QB and that's all well and good but I'd think that Blough would have rather had Mike Bercovici whom he knows come here to work with JD5. I hope I'm wrong but I'm thinking someone else made this decision and not him. I hope I am wrong and Jr. is all that.

I put a sad emoji and totally agree with you, HY.

This is absolutely hilarious.

It shouldn’t be. But it is. For about 12 different reasons.

 

[method man]

I think Anthony Lynn might stay. He was one of Blough’s OCs in Detroit. They’ve known each other for 5 years.

I really hope they can add Bevell to this staff somehow, even as a senior offensive assistant. He hit a level as an OC that Lynn and Brian Johnson never hit.

Serious "what do you mean like the sacks n' stuff?" vibes.

I'm very interested to see who they hire as a OL coach

Boy you're in a mood tonight.

I have a feeling we’ll end up with someone underwhelming, but hopefully I’m wrong.
