Montgomery was a longtime DL coach (9 years) with the Packers. Spent last season with the Patriots but has 20 years as a defensive line coach
New blood in the position coaching lines!
They must have
really been impressed with the Patriots in that week one loss.
Surprised they did this before bringing in the DC

I’m sure Golden had a say in this hire.
Hiring DL before DC is strange. Also know maybe they didn't have the most talent to work with, but also sure is strange hiring so many fired coaches from a back-to-back 4-13 team.

Well im sure Burrow had influence after being held to his lowest yards passing for the season

Golden was hired. I have no doubt he was involved in the decision.

Let's hope the hires work out. I'm excited to see if the new staff help improve the team.
“New England castoffs”… cold

He was at Oklahoma. Hell of a recruiter and players liked him a ton. He left Oklahoma for the Packers. He was pretty good but that was 10 years ago. Didn’t get along with Mike Stoops. He was one of many in that regard.

Strange, yet not unheard of for this organization.
Excited for this because I think we have some talent on the d-line!
I think Jackson will get some pressure from the nose, even on passing downs, which will leave Hill and the ends single blocked and cause a lot of disruption!
Excited for Jenkins too.
I'm liking our outlook for next season!
He definitely has his work cut out for him. Hopefully he can actually unlock Myles Murphy while also help Jenkins and Jackson develop.

Depending on price not sure Hill comes back.

Golden is probably just a formality, at this point.
Montgomery had plenty of success in GB, to be fair. Just got kicked to the curb with Mayo.

He made a great point about how our linebackers developed under Golden.
They seem to have regressed since his departure.

Al Golden’s family never left Cincy I saw somewhere. This deal has been in the making you can bet. You can go to the college ranks or hire asst. DL coaches from other teams or coaches from fired staffs. I’d assume Golden signed off.
