In before Zeke gets suspended for this.

Do they get a extra pick for hiring Bowles?

 

[Hennessy_King]

Bowles is a great coach. Good move by them

Maybe Jerry and Stephen could retire ?
Let's start a go fund me account for them !

Come on guys this was Brady all the way

Was there some type of tension between the two that I'm not privy about?

So, they didn't have to interview anyone?

The rule doesn’t apply if it’s a minority hire.

I'm a minority and didn't have a chance to apply....lol

Kind of on the weird side. They're keeping him, so I'm guessing he wanted to step away from being the HC? Now why he waited until right before the draft is what has my curiosity searching for a juicy story.

From what I've heard, the coaching staff and FO personnel largely remain in place. So FA period proceeded as normal- and thus will the draft evaluation too.

If you were the first you had a chance. You must of missed that email they sent you.

yes

Arians and Bowles had been working on a succession plan.
Good to see Bowles is gettin a shot with Brady at the helm….so a real shot.

Well, that gets them out of the Rooney rule nonsense for awhile.

 

[EST_1986]

He didn’t retire he moved to the front office and Brady commented something about thanks and spend more time with your family….so is a front office some kind of cakewalk?

It’s got to be tremendously less grueling than coaching

No Rooney rule after March 1

The first season Brady was in TB, Arians didn't hold back on his open criticism and didn't give him the GOAT treatment.

Arians has the rep that he can get cantankerous and today's players like to be catered to make sure their feelings aren't hurt.

I was surprised he came out of retirement because he was going the way of Parcells, not liking the coaches being the tail now.
