TheFunPolice Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 (edited) This is a really cool story! Former player, tough, fun to watch, played with heart and passion for the Jags. Now returns as HC. He's a great person, and I hope he does well there! Edited January 26, 2022 by TheFunPolice 6 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Motorin' Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 This is a good move for Klahn Town... Also makes me wonder if it give Brady more reason to retire not wanting to install a whole new offense? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also makes me wonder if it give Brady more reason to retire not wanting to install a whole new offense? Arians said yesterday that he would call plays. I would imagine they promote from within and keep the same system. A lot of what they had in place was reportedly implemented at Brady's suggestion. I don't think it factors in that much. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2020 Our Year For Sure Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 That's a good job with Lawrence in place and assets to mold the roster around him. They should think WR. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albany,n.y. Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 Good for him. He walks into a much better situation than if he waited for Arians (and Brady) to retire in Tampa & be left with no QB. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When Leftwhich takes Chris Goodwin to Jags with him… …that will only increase Brady probably looking to move or retire. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheFunPolice Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 I think Brady is retiring either way. But it will be cool to see what type of staff he assembles there and I hope the Jags do well. They have dozens and dozens of fans who deserve to see some success! 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miyagi-Do Karate Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 Good for him! My one story about Leftwich. I was walking out of a building about 15 years ago, and wasn’t looking where I was going, and literally bumped right into Leftwich. I was so shocked, that i didn’t even say anything. Thankfully, he seemed nice about it! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He should at least do a lot better offensively than they did this year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArtVandalay Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 (edited) Brady is not retiring. He just wants to create leverage without threatening to leave the team. 45 has been the long term goal, he'll be back. Leftwich, sign Godwin, sign Davonte, Lawrence will be setup good.

He just wants to create leverage without threatening to leave the team. 45 has been the long term goal, he'll be back. I think pulled a Michael Scott as Florio suggested. Everyone thinks Friday is his last day and he leaves Thursday to avoid the hoopla around him. Man in the Arena aired this year. He's suddenly talking about retiring when last year there was no doubt after the SB win. His TB12 social media feeding the buzz. Giselle's social media posts about "enjoying things one last time" Brady saying that his family will be a major part of the decision (what, to keep playing when Giselle has tried to get him to retire for years now?) The NE ESPN guy put it out there first, along with a former Pats teammate of Brady. It was "speculation" from the same guy who called Brady to Tampa when that seemed very unlikely. Most of all, Brady said multiple times, including on his podcast Monday, that he does not want a "farewell tour" like Jeter had. So maybe he said 45 so nobody would suspect this was his last year. Maybe even more important than all of the above, he almost had one more "magical moment" but showed he can still play. That could easily not be the case come middle of next season, and he knows his body better than anyone. Eventually it all adds up, and he does not want to be mired in mid October with a nagging injury and playing like crap, and going out like that. That is WAY more likely than a repeat of his performance this season. Tampa's schedule was a joke this year, but next year it's freaking brutal.

This is typically where Schefter send a Tweet like this that is more times than not being used by 1 side for leverage. Reading this, makes me wonder more if it's coming from the Jags to pressure Leftwich to sign quickly. Also wonder if Eberflus and Schefter share an agency. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His reputation for making sure their players get their incentives will make signing good free agents easier post Meyer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bangarang Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 The hire makes sense but this round of HC candidates has been so underwhelming. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheFunPolice Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 Also, talk about a 180 from the lunatic dictator Urban Meyer! LOL Leftwich would have plenty of time to get himself established there, plenty of good will. Just now, Bangarang said: The hire makes sense but this round of HC candidates has been so underwhelming. Yup. About 1/2 HC the coaches in the NFL aren't really that good. Teams are interviewing offensive assistants who haven't even been coordinators for HC jobs just because they work in a room with a good QB. Then you've got the Eagles coach mumbling on about dirt and roots and flowers. It's freaking hilarious that he is a HC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
