Video: A Visit with DC Matt Eberflus

Around 10:30 he basically admits Jerry and Stephen hired him before they had any idea who the head coach would be.

Special advantages of this unique structure strikes again.

He didn't say that. He did say he was comfortable with the Jones family and he was all in when he met Brian and having Dak was a slam dunk.

Eberflus was hired on Jan. 28. No-Schott was hired Jan. 25. So obviously they didn't hire Eberflus before they knew who the head coach was going to be. Now, whether Eberflus was their idea or the coaches, I don't know, but I'm sure they discussed it during the process of hiring No-Schott. For all we know, No-Schott may not have had a preference while the Joneses did, or No-Schott could have suggested it.
 
You don't care at all that Jerry and not the head coach hired the DC?
Was that really true. Who cares if it works out.
Dang, why so critical over it.
Enjoy the change.
Many wanted him as HC years ago.
Now the change to whine over the hiring.

Fans are so hateful over it. SMH.
 
Good interview with Eberflus......had to start laughing when he couldn't pronounce Donovan Ezeiruaku's last name, lol

EZ will just have to be good enough
Surprised they didn’t give him the nickname of Easy-e

Give me a break, I'm not "hateful" over it. I'm just pointing it out.

But it is another example of why the structure here is a problem. Like Jimmy once said, Jerry thinks he's the head coach. He wants the coordinators to work for him, not the DC to work for the HC. Yes, I know Jerry signs the checks, but you should understand what I mean.

I get it. But I will at least give them credit for actually doing a good job at getting DC’s. They suck at hiring HC’s but they generally go get top DC’s.
