No one would know if he would make a good coach or not.....but let's be honest he would have as good of a chance as anybody to be a good coach.  He would immediately demand respect......not to mention he could eat children!

let be honest no he doesnt....he hasnt been involved in the upper levels of football in any way shape or form for over a decade...and if he showed even an inkling of having some sort of coaching talent then that combined with how good of a player he was he would have gotten a sniff.....hes duce staley but a decade more removed from the sport...at best he gets a quality control position....

to say you would take him in "almost any capacity" is just insane
i can take a phrase thats rarely heard...flip it....now its a daily word

people cant get over the fact that its not 1991 anymore and seth joyner is as useless to a football team as i am

i understand j having the problem seeing how he thinks donovan mcnabb is still 26 and is stuck in 2004 but everyone else....what the farg
Zero hour, Michael. It's the end of the line. I'm the firstborn. I'm sick of playing second fiddle. I'm always third in line for everything. I'm tired of finishing fourth. Being the fifth wheel. There are six things I'm mad about, and I'm taking over.

When it comes to coaching football, and your teams LB's suck, I'll take someone who used to play LB in the league at a high level over some other nerdy white looking dolt who was the Dolphins quality control coach for 3 years

perhaps you could explain sd's reasons for "disliking" it as well since you seem to be so in tune with other peoples minds

You guys are insane.   If Joyner wants to coach so much, why he ain't been doin' it for the last 15 years?  It's not like you have to suck someone's dick get a spot coaching a little league team.   

That's how you do it when you leave the sport:  you take a low level job somewhere and bust ass, work your way up, your name and contacts help you along the way so it won't take quite as long for you as it does for the no-name coaches, etc.  And of course, you gotta be a decent coach.

No way do i want to see Seth f'n Joyner in any real coaching position on the Eagles.

If I had to guess I'd say maybe he had some cash laid away and the well is finally running dry.

More likely some fool stuck a mike in his grill and he just said some crap for kicks.  He can't be serious.

anything other than the duce staley godfather role (did you ever see him on the sidelines with his microphone on his headset not flipped all the way up...its like one day andy told him if you say one god damn thing during the game to us im going to fire you midgame) is a waste.

I'd love to see Joyner back with the Eagles in some capacity. Dude could do it all (stop the run, blitz, cause turnovers, defend the pass) and had a no bullshtein attitude (coined the phrase Ran-Doll for Randall). The D needs guys like that who are born with a chip on their shoulder. There's a lot he could teach the LBs. That being said you don't just hand over the LB coaching job to someone because they played the position at a high level 20 years ago. So - like Duce - take him on as an intern and see what he can do. Know why the backs were better in pass protection this season? It was because of Duce. You can learn a ton from guys who have been there and done that.

If Todd Pinkston can coach wr's, then Seth Joyner should get a chanced to coach linebackers.

Other than igy and mds - who trot out contrarian points if view regularly - I'm surprised that so many are opposed to this. What is the worst that happens? That he sucks? Ok like it would be the first time they had a zesty coach on the team.

Give him a shot as an intern ala Duce.

its not a contrarian view point just for fargs sake

its the fact that hes been sitting on his ass for 15 years and all of a sudden told some random reporter that he wants to get into coaching. and with that, everyone is ready to blow open the doors of the novacare for him.

he might be good, he might not. i dont really know and it doesnt really matter. its not like he would be able to all of a sudden make moise fouke a competent nfl linebacker.
