Who knows what Gettleman will do to make his mark

[Jackofalltrades]

Norv
Whiz
Shurmer

[Mr. Scot]

Shurmur's a WCO guy.

There's also Al Saunders. He has some nebulous "consultant" role with the Raiders right now.

[KillerKat]

Cam Cameron is my fav. It feels good though to finally have confidence in your GM to pick the right guy.

[SgtJ00]

1a. Norv
1b. Whisenhunt
2 Shula

[Sloth]

Turner, Whisenhunt, Gailey, Hue Jackson

There are some good offensive guys out there that fit our scheme pretty well.

Saunders is a genius. Some call him the reason that the Coryell stuff started going to 900 page playbooks, but since it's a language and so much of it's interchangeable, I think people overblow that part of it. Martz said there were 150 ways to run F-post (a signature play in the offense) so 900 pages isn't really an exaggeration, but it's not 900 different plays to learn. No idea why he stayed with the Raiders, since they moved to WCO.

Hue makes a lot of sense, but no connection there (or Saunders).


FWIW, Ramsdell from the Chargers is out there. Sure, probably goes to Cleveland, but would be ideal.

Forgot about Ramsdell. That'd be a great choice.

Bob Bratkowski's another Coryell guy that'll be looking for work.

Al Saunders would be freaking fantastic. Another one of my favs.

[KillerKat]

Cameron, Saunders, Bratkowski, Ramsdell, Zampese. We have some good choices.

I want this guy if we cant get Norv or Whiz

Doug Nussmeier, Bama OC



Was the QBC in STL when Bulger was lighting it up. Was the OC for Locker at Washington. The balance in the 1st half of the title game was picturesque. Every play killed ND attacking the weak spots in the D.

I'd be shocked if it isn't Shula. Those of you referencing his stint with Tampa as the reason he "sucks" need to realize that it has been over a decade since he was in that role, and I think it is safe to assume that he has learned quit a bit since then. And for those saying he has never run a Coryell system, well, it's true, he hasn't run one...but he has been heavily involved with one for the last two years, and already has a very good working relationship with our franchise QB, by all reports.

So, the bottom line is that he has been training in this offense for a couple of years and has the advantage of already knowing our personnel, understanding their strengths and weaknesses, and most of all, has immediate history with the man making the decision. So unless Norv decides he wants to come here, I think those not enamored with Shula should start bracing themselves for disappointment.

yep. Bratkowski's not bad.
And yeah I saw Geep is listed for a job or two. Coryell guy too. He was on the Bears' coaching staff when Ron was a player.

[h0llywood]

Tom Moore would be a nice mentor to Cam Newton

[Marguide]

We have Cam frickken Newton. I'm not worried about having a number of qualified candidates to choose from.

We don't have to settle for Shula.
