...and the GM is speaking highly of him.

It's gonna be very interesting to see how he sorts this QB situation out!

Monte Kiffin is saying that Gus Bradley is a "once-in-a-lifetime coach" and also said this.

He really is exceptional. You could tell. He’s not just a really, really smart coach; he’s got a great personality. He connects with the players really well. He reminds me of Mike Tomlin. We hired Mike at 29-years-old out of the University of Cincinnati. It didn’t take long to know that Mike was special, and I knew from Day One that Gus was special. He’ll be a head coach in the NFL. He’s got no panic. Some people do, it doesn’t mean they’re not really good coaches, but Gus, he’s special. When he interviews, he’ll knock your socks off. I’m not trying to pump him up, but I know what he is. He’s put it on tape up there.

Here's a video with him espousing his philosophy. I bet the Eagles wish they had gotten him. I sure wish the Titans had!

Gus Bradley and Bortles is a very tough combination.

We shall see! I heard a scout was singing the praises of Marqis Lee after watching a few days of him in camp. Bortles to Lee *could* be a potent combination if the stars align properly.
