PS I'm sure I've been fan much longer than you..

Maybe... went to my first game in 1978.

When the line was playing well i did notice we had very good play designs.

I have no idea how Callahan is without Burrow

If he gets one of 32 head coaching gigs in the NFL, he will take it.  That window rarely opens.  When it does, guys jump at it.

1972

I like Callahan. I also hope he gets a legit shot at the position. It’s one of only 32 in the world. So, if offered he’d be foolish not to take it.

But, whenever you hear Joe B talk about the coaching staff…it’s overwhelmingly to praise Zac Taylor. I’m sure he’s mentioned Callahan, but really don’t remember how or when? Not sure if that means anything, though!

Cool, have heard Burrow talk really high about Pitcher and his creativity and knowledge.

Never know, might be an upgrade if Brian Callahan moves on to the Colts as HC.

Or the Colts could keep with their usual standards by plugging in a vet QB and coming up a bit short.  Jimmy G?  Mayfield?  Darnold?  Maybe they'd actually make a play for a guy who isn't crap/toast by looking at Jackson.

Colts could get Carr which wouldnt be a bad move IMO

I have to say I'm not going to be upset if Callahan moves on.

I tend to want everyone to stay when we are successful. There’s no telling what he does for Burrow behind the scenes. What if he’s good at helping Burrow ID coverages or something

I would think Dan Pitcher and Zac Taylor would be much better at this honestly.

WTS, they should go with a defensive mind. Lou would be great there

Plus they should be able to land a solid QBs in the draft.

If your team has success, your coaches will be offered interviews and jobs, it is just the nature of things. If you want the Bengals to be a long-term successful francshise then you must accept that they will part with both players and coaches to keep things moving forward while staying under the cap and losing coaches to other jobs that you personally may not like.

That said, if the team gets going well enough, those coaches may not want to leave as they realize they have a better situation where there currently are but that doesn't stop the interview requests or interviews. It is just the nature of the NFL.

Eff that I’m takin the 1st HC job that comes available if I’m a HC virgin lol



Also if i were an AFC team id bring him in just for an edge VS us.


All those years Peyton and Tom
Ruled the AFC it was probably because teams weren’t poaching their talent


If I’m the Browns or Pittsburg I’m offering Tee Higgins 100M. Im
Trying to get Germaine Pratt. Im tryna get whoever good i can get my hands on from Cincinnati


Maybe my petty ass would make a dumbass roster trying to be petty but I’d at least try

I just want to see us go out and get qualified replacements rather than constantly promote from in house. After a few promotions it always seems to go downhill. Sounds like Pitcher would be a good promotion though. I think part of that is everyone here feels like Callahan doesn't do anything on the team.

Could be, and I'm not saying I want him to go, but there are a lot of good OC's, also qualified in house people that could move up. I'd rather lose Brian than Lou

For damn sure.

Brian Callahan has a 2nd interview with the Colts later this week

It's definitely worth noting that among Callahan's advocates is Colts legend Peyton Manning. Which I'd think would carry weight with Jim Irsay. https://t.co/WQeRfZUtIZ

Yea the Colts are likely going to draft a young QB and Callahan has an excellent resume of QBs he coached.

[Nicomo Cosca]

Bengals offensive coordinator Brian Callahan was told he’s been eliminated from the Colts search, per source. @MikeSilver reported (and I’ve confirmed) Giants DC Wink Martindale was told the same.

Callahan also was up for the Cardinals job, is clearly a name to watch for 2024.
