Saleh seems to be a good HC prospect, but we have to wait and see if he can handle
the HC position.
It is much different than just being DC.
I have seen several good DC's fail at HC.

It's perplexing to me that Bieniemy is still out there. I like Saleh and Meyer, but Bieniemy has been the hottest assistant coach in the NFL for several seasons. I wonder if maybe people question his input with Andy Reid and Mahomes both being so good.
It's just because his team is still playing. He and Daboll are both going probably going to be HCs next year.

It's also possible that Reid has told Bieniemy behind the scenes that he will only remain for another year or two and the KC job is then his.

Thats a way better proposition than going to the Jets, where he would likely end up being a coordinator again in two years.

He will get his opportunity, and unless Reid figures to stay around for another decade, he should wait that out.

Yeah I have no idea about the Jets. Just thought I would throw that out there to stir things up. You know how this place can be. :muttley:

sure would be nice had Parcells let Peyton know he was going to quit suddenly..think about that SP as our HC to finish developing our team and romo..im still pissed at Parcells for that..

49ers are also getting two third round comp picks as part of the program to hire minorities into higher position.

Agreed. Have a contact in SD and he advised they are looking at Bieniemy and JG. He said Bieniemy is by far the fans choice and worried JG will be the owners choice who's evidently looked at much like Jerry. Guess SD knows a little bit about the NFL.

There are times when I dream of what the last decade would have looked like with Payton here as HC.

A real coach, plus the ability to handle Jerry and deal with him.

Perfect, perfect guy to coach here. Oh well.
