What do you think about what Davante says here?

And to make sure we all understand he wasn't trying to throw a dig at McCarthy.

What do I think about what he said

I think he met LaFleur a few days back
I think he thinks LaFleur is a great guy
I think he likes what LaFleur is trying to do with the offense
I think he thinks LaFleur is innovative and it will be a good way to mix up the offense.
I think a buddy told him about the hire
I think he did a bit of his own research on LaFleur.
I think he thinks it was a great first impression
I think he thinks Lafleur is younger than McCarthy
I think he thinks LaFleur is relateable
I think he is glad Getsy is back.

Those are just a few of the things I got from the brief interview. Now I can't wait to sit back and have everybody tell me what I really should have gotten from the brief interview.

I was thinking more along the lines of using it a proof of anything against McCarthy somehow but there is the too young thing as well.

Can’t help but wonder if some of the guys might not want to listen to a head coach that young. You know, kind of like looking at your older brother and saying “I don’t have to listen you you! Your not my father!”

Sometimes it's easy to judge people before we actually get to really know them. Like judging a book by it's cover, some pronounce their thoughts without knowing all the facts. Like believing that a resume' reveals all about a person. It does not reveal how quick one thinks on their feet, or if they are a braggart or to quiet of a type person to handle a position. Face to face meetings can tell a great deal about a person almost immediately. On the other hand one can know another for years and not know them at all. There are no simple answers that supply conclusive evidence that this or that person is right for a job, Sometimes it is as simple as getting a good feeling about a person.

From what I'm seeing, Coach LaFleur is assembling a quality staff that will for the most part already be familiar with the new offensive. Even from my vantage point the team chemistry being built is going to be great.

I think it all depends on how you come at the guys... the older coach might get away more with being a grumpy hard ass that a young coach couldn't, but the younger coach might get away more with trying to be relatable in connection in the same spot of life than the old coach... there is advantages and disadvantages to both.
