January 8, 201510 yr comment_102519 Nice to see that Benevides is still in the running. And that we're still in the running with Benevides.
January 8, 201510 yr comment_102524 Maybe Benevides and Hall will split the position of DC - one being D and one being C? But really, this is quite the unusual situation I would submit. Especially for us. Last year? Empty shelves. This year? Two of the better coordinator coaches in the running for DC. Talk about all of a sudden being rich. And don't take that as an endorsement Of Hall over Mike. In the meantime….over in Sask…..the phone remains quiet….sitting beside the offer sheet for Benevides
January 8, 201510 yr comment_102526 Wonder if BENEVIDES is still in the running because he doesn't want to be reunited with Chapdelaine in SASK.
January 8, 201510 yr comment_102557 my wish... Mike Benevides - Co-Defensive Coordinator / Linebackers Richie Hall / Co-Defensive Coordinator / Defensive Backs Mike Sinclair or Carl Hairston - Defensive Line
January 8, 201510 yr comment_102558 I really think there has to be only one defensive coordinator to determine the style, pace, and plays called. How would that work with co-defensive coordinators? One designs the playbook and the other calls the plays?
January 8, 201510 yr comment_102559 Wonder if BENEVIDES is still in the running because he doesn't want to be reunited with Chapdelaine in SASK. I think Benevides is still in the running because he doesn't necessarily want to be united with Chamblin. Lot of talk that Chamblin is not a great guy to work with. His history of changing coordinators and taking over their duties seems to back this up.
January 8, 201510 yr comment_102560 my wish... Mike Benevides - Co-Defensive Coordinator / Linebackers Richie Hall / Co-Defensive Coordinator / Defensive Backs Mike Sinclair or Carl Hairston - Defensive Line I like it, defense by committee. However, has this co-defensive coordinator approach ever been done before in the CFL? I've always assumed offense and defense as one man in charge with head coach oversight. Or is this a wish that will always stay a wish?
January 8, 201510 yr comment_102561 It will be interesting to see how or if Chamblin and Chaps manage to co-exist.
January 8, 201510 yr comment_102562 my wish... Mike Benevides - Co-Defensive Coordinator / Linebackers Richie Hall / Co-Defensive Coordinator / Defensive Backs Mike Sinclair or Carl Hairston - Defensive Line I like it, defense by committee. However, has this co-defensive coordinator approach ever been done before in the CFL? I've always assumed offense and defense as one man in charge with head coach oversight. Or is this a wish that will always stay a wish? I believe that this is a wish...that should not even be wished for. It's important that the players have one system and one guy to buy into. Can't see how two coordinators would do anything but confuse.
January 8, 201510 yr comment_102566 my wish... Mike Benevides - Co-Defensive Coordinator / Linebackers Richie Hall / Co-Defensive Coordinator / Defensive Backs Mike Sinclair or Carl Hairston - Defensive Line would make very little sense. Hall and Benevides are about as far apart in philosophy as two coordinators can be.
January 8, 201510 yr comment_102569 my wish... Mike Benevides - Co-Defensive Coordinator / Linebackers Richie Hall / Co-Defensive Coordinator / Defensive Backs Mike Sinclair or Carl Hairston - Defensive Line And in that scenario, the buck stops where exactly?
January 8, 201510 yr comment_102570 @garylawless: after multiple conversations today it appears #bombers are close to making a call between Mike Benevides and Richie Hall for DC. 48 hours.
January 8, 201510 yr comment_102571 Is there a consensus pick among the smart guys here of who would be the better DC?
January 8, 201510 yr comment_102572 truley...I don't think so...both have their merits. My thoughts is we can't go wrong with either..too bad this didnt occur last year and we would be in our second season with the staff...building onto what we created.
January 8, 201510 yr comment_102573 my wish...

However, has this co-defensive coordinator approach ever been done before in the CFL? I've always assumed offense and defense as one man in charge with head coach oversight. Or is this a wish that will always stay a wish? Expensive with little prospect of being a better solution.
January 8, 201510 yr comment_102574 Is there a consensus pick among the smart guys here of who would be the better DC? Im not very smart at all but id think its what kind of D you prefer ... Mike Benevides runs a more aggressive system.... Richie Hall runs a more layed back bend dont break kinda system. Id take Bene just because i like a more aggressive type D but im sure either will do fine and a better then Etch.
January 8, 201510 yr comment_102577 I like aggressive systems, which is why I prefer Benevides. Consensus? Around here? Never. Not even among the smart guys.
January 8, 201510 yr comment_102578 I like aggressive systems, which is why I prefer Benevides. Consensus? Around here? Never. Not even among the smart guys. Count me in on that .
January 8, 201510 yr comment_102581 This poll, while a month old now, had Benevides as the choice of the forum. Hall was a distant 2nd and almost tied with Claybrooks.. Though no requirement to be "smart" to vote. http://morningbigblue.com/community/topic/6269-poll-who-should-be-the-bombers-new-dc/ Benevides 59.3% Hall 16.48% Claybrooks 15.38%
January 8, 201510 yr comment_102583 Bene as DC and Richie as the DB coach would really be ideal. Is that an "agressive front 7" and a "bend but dont break secondary" ?
January 8, 201510 yr comment_102585 Personnel significantly influences a "style" of defence as much as a coach does. If you ain't got the horses you ain't winning the race.
January 8, 201510 yr comment_102587 Is it safe to assume that by Saturday morning (after 48 hours) we will know who the next Bombers DC is?
January 8, 201510 yr comment_102589 These continual talks between the interested parties is really interesting and must be very in-depth. These two guys have a lot of knowledge and whomever we choose will be a win IMO. Their insight, at this time, with our current roster, is important, as Walters is going down south in meetings with our Scouting staff, and he could be going with a wish list with roster suggestions by the "new" coordinator.
January 8, 201510 yr comment_102590 Is it safe to assume that by Saturday morning (after 48 hours) we will know who the next Bombers DC is? nope I wouldn't say so.
