Summary

Pat Daugherty and Denny Carter join Matt Stroup to take a look at the landscape of NFL coaches — and what it means for fantasy football — ranking the best and the worst the league has to offer. We consider whether Sean Payton can salvage a season where there are already questions about Jameis Winston's connection with Michael Thomas, why Sean McVay is ranked ahead of Kyle Shanahan, and whether we can trust Kliff Kingsbury to get the most out of Kyler Murray and DeAndre Hopkins in 2021. Also: a look at some of Urban Meyer's strange decisions, and why Travis Etienne is still an intriguing name heading into summer fantasy drafts.

Hey, everyone. Welcome to a good football show. I am Matt Straup and today we are going to be looking at the landscape of NFL coaching and what it means for fantasy football.

0:26.2

We're going to be bringing you our coaching rankings. Pat coaching rankings, I should say some of the best coaches, some of the worst and some new hires where we may not actually know yet. I'm joined by Pat D'Arty, Danny Carter, fell as because we are talking about coaches. We got Pat's coaching rankings coming up. I wanted to ask you guys, who is your favorite fictional coach? This could be from a movie, from a TV show, a Broadway musical or what have you, but it must be a fictional universe.

0:56.2

What do you got? I have the coach from from necessary roughness, 1991 film starting Scott Bacula.

1:07.2

Sure. I'm saying his last. Back you, of course. Back you like Dracula.

1:10.7

And Hector Elizondo was played coach Ed Gennaro. And he always, he was like the perfect coach who was always on the verge of a heart attack, you know, like, like, like, clearly like drank a lot, ate a lot of red meat, you know, lived and breathed football, probably slept, you know, three to five hours a night, if that.

1:31.7

And, and, you know, was so stressed about about football that he could keel over at any point. So you have to love him.

1:38.7

There's so many to choose from, you know, it's hard to go wrong with Al Pacino gifts from any given Sunday, probably still the most stirring leader of men ever committed to film.

1:49.7

Yeah, I feel like too much of a, like, I don't know what the word is for bringing this one up. But I mean, the way that Henry Winkler handled like unorthodox talent and the water boy.

2:00.7

Like, he's the kind of coach who wouldn't get a shot in this day and age, you know, because he probably not an analytics man. He's not a raw raw man, a handled, you know, an unorthodox talent, super well.

2:11.7

And you got to love the way very 2000s, the way that Philip Seymour Hoffman and Moneyball treated art, how, like, you know, like a tortured Shakespearean, like character actor, probably like a unnecessary amount of depth and gravitas to that role.

2:29.7

But that's that, you know, that's good acting. So, yeah.

2:32.7

So which is your plan? I'll go with, yeah, Phil Seymour Hoffman treating art, how, like, he was playing on Macbeth.

2:38.7

I gotta say, the mention of necessary roughness, the one thing I remember that move from that movie is like the linebacker who like karate kicks people or something.

2:48.7

Right? Isn't that a thing in that movie?

2:51.7

There's a dude on the team who just, it's a team of misfits, right? And we don't know what league they're playing in.

2:56.7

I need to rewatch this movie. What a what a treat that would be.

2:59.7

Right, right. And oh, and by the way, Jason, a very young Jason Bateman, isn't it?

3:05.7

Wow. Wow.

3:06.7

Yes.

3:07.7

What a pleasure.

3:08.7

And and Kathy Ireland, my, my ex-wife is also.

3:12.7
