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."

    • Brandt's comment about Wharton was from his KC perspective when Wharton was a UDFA rookie.   "it goes back to the anecdote that Brandt Tillis had when he was in Kansas City. And it would be so easy to just cut Turk Wharton in 2020 when he was an undrafted rookie from a division two college in Missouri. It would been so easy to cut him because then he would have cleared waivers easily. No one knew this guy. They didn't have any joint practices, didn't have a preseason. Would have been so easy to cut him and bring him back on the practice squad and let him continue to build from there. And Brandt essentially said, "No, he's got to make the 53man roster if we're going to have any sort sense of credibility with this team."    
    • Plenty of us were scratching our heads about that signing at the time. Especially with our 3-4 defense. Wharton is kind of a one trick pony situational five tech DT. He doesn't have the beef to hold up against the run and he doesn't have the juice to shift outside. He's basically a situational pass rusher DT. If we paid him $40M+ and he can't start for a historically inept defense then holy poo...
    • Agreed.  300 and 2 or 3 total in Jacksonville in a winning effort would sure be a nice start.
