SeaHawk

People are actually calling him the "real deal" after just one game, against a pathetic team??

Everyone needs to stop talking about the kid's durability... don't you see that whenever we bring up a DB's injury history or durability, or even talk about the secondary's durability concerns in general, the very next week a DB goes down for the year?? But anyways, this kid does have a ton of potential. He was overlooked by many teams, and was given the start based purely on there being a lack of options, but let's not forget one certain legendary QB in New England (love or hate him). Brady, a 6th rounder, was a backup to Bledsoe, and he may have never been given a shot if he had not been forced into the start. Can Melvin be the next legend who came up from out of nowhere?

Mark Sanchez

Also, zuttah did not give up a single sack in either 20!2/2013. Impressive

I agree. Losing Art Jones does not help this fact.

Great day today. Signed two awesome players, two of my favorite players at that. But do we still have enough money for an OL player?

I actually heard that Kenny Britt would be a Raven last year. I even reported it here during the early part of the season. I would love to see it happen.

Think we may draft a TE in the early rounds now? That would not be a surprise at all, considering Kubiak's offense is based heavily around TE usage.

Juan is actually the perfect teacher for what Kubiak wants to do. Looking back on things, promoting Castillo to OL coach was likely the writing on the wall for us to bring in an OC that utilized the zone blocking scheme. Castillo might just surprise some folks now. I am more than willing to give him a chance... not like we can do anything about it anyways.

I apologize for being ignorant, but what do you mean by "vetted"?

Except for the fact that we tend to do much better with former Texans than the Jets did/do with former Ravens.

I just hope that Shanahan comes along with them... I have a feeling he could be an excellent coach for a team now that he's not working with his Dad anymore.

OR.... maybe, just maybe... the higher ups stepped in and told Harbaugh he could not hire Hostler in as OC... *cue suspense music*

Agreed, but this also works the other way too. People who are getting uber excited about this move should temper expectations until we see how the offense works out in real time action.

If conservative means moving the chains slowly but surely, keeping a good TOP number, incorporating an H-Back for Juice, and using Rice in a better way (similar to Foster)... then sign me up for a conservative attack.

Are we bringing in Shanny??

How is this going to work in the short term though? How will 3 longtime OC's be able to cooperate together? I'm guessing Shanahan will act as the QB coach, but what about Dennison? Offensive Specialist, or some other zany idea?

So is this Kubiak/Shanahan/Dennison report as close to being official as it can be, or is it just a rumor?

Lmao, exactly. This is very true.

Yeah, instead of Flacco audibling to a play by calling out Bon Jovi, he will instead audible to a play by saying 50 Cent.

As tragic as the event is/was, that's a cover up. My deepest empathies go out to the families of the victims involved however.

I don't believe I could get along with either Harbaugh brother. For as bad as John is, Jim is much, much worse in terms of personality. So I'm glad that we have the good brother in terms of personality. In terms of actual coaching ability though.... no way John is better than Jim.

I grew tired of Harbaugh a long time ago. Winning the Super Bowl silenced most of his critics for a while, but if he continues his crap, you'll see even more bashers of him than you originally saw.

Just because a player likes a guy, doesn't automatically qualify that guy as even a decent coach. They could like their brother Mike, but it doesn't mean that brother Mike is suited to be an OC... unless that brother is the brother of John Harbaugh, that is.. But anyways, there is no secret candidate. It makes no sense for two guys to be the "finalists" if the process of finding candidates to interview wasn't over yet. This is the final step... either the wrong guy gets hired and the team goes down once again, or the right guy gets hired and we are put on the right path to the playoffs.
