Joe Brady?

Now, he may end up being a great HC - and if the Bengals hire him, I'll wish him nothing but success - but I'm more concerned with the possibility of him being Zac Taylor 2.0. I'd rather someone with more experience as either coordinator or head coach. 

If Brady was such an improvement, people would list all the reasons why, and so far, the only qualifications I've seen for why Brady would be an improvement are that he coached Burrow in college during his record year and he's been a better OC than Taylor ever was or is. Wooooo, what a promising HC candidate.

Can you please stop rolling your eyes every single post? We’re just having a discussion here. I do apologize for my “Lol” earlier (I think that was a reply to one of your posts). But you seem to be hand waving away what he did with Burrow and Chase pretty casually. Now, I don’t know if he’d be a good HC, but I do think he’d make our offense a lot better than it’s been since the Jay/Hue years.

As for the reasons why Brady could be a good candidate? He obviously has a short resume so far, but I would love to give a guy who was a passing game coordinator, Burrow, Chase, Higgins, and Boyd. That’s pretty close to what he was working with at LSU. We’ve seen what he can do with a very similar group. Only the best college season of all time…

I’ve also already mentioned several times how I’ve been impressed with what he’s doing with Sam Darnold so far (again - - most people chalked him up as a total bust at this point), but that will obviously have to continue for the rest of the season to really count much in his favor.

I mean, Sean McVay only had 3 seasons as an OC before landing the Rams job. Brady could just as easily end up becoming closer to him, than “Zac Taylor 2.0.”
