    Canada insurance ...if Canada fails his replacement may be in house
    Kenny Pickett is who I though he was .. Eagles didn't value him either , now he is a Stain at the Mistake by the Lake 3 teams in 4 years more of a shooting star than a superstar

    Just from a little investigating it looks like Glenn Thomas had success under Matt Rhule at both Temple and Baylor. But when Rhule took the job at Nebraska he went with Marcus Satterfield as OC. Satterfield was the other OC for those Temple and Baylor teams. We don’t know the conversations though.

    I think it looks like a co-OC/QB coach type of guy.

    Isn’t this what Sullivan was doing?

    One thing is for sure, he will now have stability since the Steelers never fire anyone.

    I don't think this has been posted yet. But if Thomas is here to do the things listed in the brief review....that would be great.

    Biggest thing I want to see on offense in 2023 is routes being called/coached where receivers are NOT stopping their feet. That just drove me nuts the past several seasons...why hit DJ standing still instead of on the move? And if they run hitches to CAIII and don't try to hit someone with his speed on the move....I may have an aneurysm.
