Unless he and Taylor are close friends or the money is right. Maybe he wants to go to a team that focuses more on defense but a lateral move from Saints to Bengals seems odd.

MichaelWeston Posted February 3, 2019 Report Share Posted February 3, 2019 It appears Mike Sherman coached Dan Campbell at Texas AnM and may have been there the same year as Dennis Allen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldschooler Posted February 3, 2019 Report Share Posted February 3, 2019 Just now, MichaelWeston said: Why not? Living in Wisconsin I've watched the Packers Defense under him. Not impressed. The Packers' defense finished 22nd this season, the fourth time it has finished in the bottom third of the NFL in the past seven years (including a dead-last ranking in 2011). Capers hasn't finished with a top-10 defense since the Super Bowl season of 2010, when it ranked fifth. The Packers have finished outside the top 15 in the defensive rankings six of the past seven years. http://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/21934687/green-bay-packers-fire-defensive-coordinator-dom-capers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is being interviewed for a head coaching position but may be enticed with the right offer. "His defense ranks second in the league against the run (80.2 yards per game) and tied for fifth in the league in sacks." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh I want Taylor to have experienced coaches on staff due to his inexperience and youth, but I want them to at least have had ran a good D or good O. Callahan and Capers are not those guys.

I was kind of hoping they'd get someone on each side of the ball with significant experience, preferably as head coach. On offense they don't even have anyone who had been a coordinator before, so I'm really hoping they get some experience on defense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I totally agree but Jamie and OldSchooler are spot on, I don’t want an experienced guy who is experienced at getting fired from multiple teams because he sucked.

Yep. I want a guy who was a good coordinator but sucked as a head coach. Those guys will not be a threat to leave but will still produce on their side of the ball.
