It is the safest bet for the near future. Some stability in an otherwise unstable situation. The revoloving door in the head coach world will offer up many new options next year. Obviously, the admin felt it was the best candidate out of the interviewees.

Sign Marcus Williams. Give DA a stable leader at QB and some damn weapons on offense. Otherwise the HC won’t matter.

The NFCS is wide open at the moment. A lot could change between now and the draft but our time to solidify the franchise beyond SP’s legacy is now.

Good for Allen. He's earned it.

I, for one, am glad that it's likely he won't be scattered and can focus on coaching as opposed to making personnel decisions as well.

Next plan of action …

We need a QB.

papz · 02-08-2022, 08:12 AM

Maybe we find a one year stop gap like Bridgewater or Mariota and draft one. We definitely need to draft one.

This is going to be unpopular but it might be favorable to move on from Kamara's contract. Solid rb talent available and gives us a more money to work with to rebuild that offense.

it would only be a lateral if he had the same resources. No QB, 1 WR (maybe), likely no RB, and an Oline that has a history of injuries is not lateral from KC. That said, it's also tough to evaluate an OC where the QB goes rogue every play. Not enough data to support Bienemy, not enough pull to warrant him moving.
