Didn't they use to praise Sean McVay like he was a genius for hiring Wade Phillips? I don't see why they wouldn't heap a similar amount of praise in Kyle's direction if we hired Pete. People think Kyle's ego is too big to hire a big name and maybe that's true. I feel like Kyle is safe hiring a guy at the end of his coaching career though. Is Pete really going to coach long enough to get another shot at a HC gig? I doubt it. Come spend your last two to three years (max) coaching Defense for the team you came up the ranks with back in the day, Pete. Full circle.

The problem with Pete's defenses is that they've been figured out. Doesn't seem like Kyle has had any particular issues carving it up, therefore half the league running our system wouldn't either. With that said, Carroll has shown that if he has the star power he can maximize their efficiency. And we do have the star power at every layer on our defense.

Wouldn't rank him top choice, but I won't be mad if he gets the gig…

I think that because of the time it is taking to hire a DC. Hey I want to be wrong here. But for the love of god I sure don't want Staley.

Honestly I'd take Staley over Wilks and that just might be the case. Not that I'm advocating for it, my guy is Vrabel, but why don't you want Staley? People can look to LAC and how he ran that place, but Staley wouldn't be in charge in SF. So what's to worry??

If its common sense to run do you not think KC knew that too and thats why they stacked the box? Common sense sounds like ole Jimmy Raye's offsense. Run, Run, & then a draw out of shotgun. That'll confuse them!!!

Wasn't it a laser gun

Jimmy Raye's offense was largely influence by Mike Singletary.

Ridiculous at best

At least he would be aggressive and not just sit back in a soft zone or call obvious blitzes at weird times.

After going through what he did and wasting a season with a DC that didn't fit in with your plans, wouldn't you take your time?
You did`nt say that ...ok

If we hire an internal candidate after all this time, it'll be a bad look for the organization

Not really… but people are going to see what they want to see regardless.
