To JR: A Simple Guide / Check List for Hiring an OC


PrimeTimeHeel

Recommended Posts

Plan 1A: 

A former OC who had great success calling plays ie recently fired HC

Plan 2A:

A current OC who had great success calling plays ie coaching staff let go

Plan B: 

A position coach who learned and studied under a great OC

This really isn't that hard. No way in hell Shula should have EVER been hired as OC. Literally couldn't believe what I was reading the day he was hired OC. 

Someone please send this memo to JR and Hurney

The owner doesn't hire the OC, the HC does. At this point, Shula's failures are Ron's failures. He's made it clear Shula is his guy. He not only condones this, he WANTS this. 

The owner and or GM can dictate who the coordinators are (if they want)

Ironic since I honestly think there's a decent chance that Gettleman may have made it known that he'd like Rivera to can Shula and that may have played a role in why Gettleman is no longer here.

It's hardly ever done that way. 

If you're going to go to this extreme, you may as well just fire the head coach.

Personally I like Ron and what he brings to the defense. 

Not like JR doesn't have a reason for making this move. 

Call Ron into the office and say "Look son, we let you pick Shula and that has not worked out. Time to move on from that error and try to correct this. Me and the GM will pick the next OC. We like what you do on the defensive side of the bal and would like to retain you, but you got to leave the offense to someone who knows that side of the ball."

    • Baker was traded before he played his 5th year.  RGIII was cut before playing his 5th year. So it is rare but it happens. 
    • Time to hit 4000 yards and 30 TDs (including rushing). I don't care about INTs anymore. That's a big part of the problem. He plays uber conservative until the game is on the line. Playing not to lose, instead of playing to win. Time to let it friggin rip from the get. The team can win with a pick or 2 if he has 3-4 TDs. Stop playing scared.  But to be fair, his WRs have not been great. You all can bash about 1st round picks and O-line cap all you want.  Chuba as your #1 RB his entire career.  Adam Thielen as your best WR for 2 of 3 seasons is ridiculous. Then a rookie as your best in the 3rd season. Legette is not a 1st round talent. Probably closer to a 4th if you compare him to Brazzel this year. Coker has been a walking injury report. Nothing else to really speak of at WR or TE. Jimmy Horn has potential, but he is not an NFL starter yet. Oline has been better as run blockers than pass blockers. Ickey has always been so-so as a pass blocking LT. Center has been a revolving door for 3 years. Damien Lewis has been as marketed. Hunt is a great run blocker but an ok pass blocker - when healthy. Moton has been solid at RT. Biggest problem with the oline has been depth. When someone went down, their replacement became a glaring weakness. Overall a good but not great unit the last 2 years. 2023 was a ish show. Nothing else to say.  Not one game breaker, take it to the house offensive weapon since DJ Moore. Hopefully we get a little of that from Brazzell.  Either way, in his 4th season, it doesn't matter. You have to be able to overcome whatever comes your way. First 3 seasons with a young supporting cast is defendable. Can't use that anymore though. 3rd year in the offense. 3rd year with the same HC.   
    • Highest amount of OL salary cap in the league too. The Chiefs are behind us at 2 but we are ahead of them by a cool $23 million. https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/position/offensive-line/_/year/2026/table/active/sort/cap_total
