No Huddle Experience is a Must for OC

Recommended Posts

Which teams have successfully run the No Huddle over the past twenty years? The Colts and Bills immediately come to mind. 

Jim Caldwell was the QB coach for many years under Tom Moore in Indianapolis. Tom Moore is probably available - he was most recently an assistant and offensive consult for Bruce Arians - but he's 79. Let's rule out Moore. 

Frank Reich obviously knows something about running the Bills No Huddle, but he's OC for the Eagles. I doubt they'll let him make a lateral move and I don't even think he'd entertain it... I'm sure he wants a head coaching job. 

But Caldwell... hmm. That's a possibility.

I highly doubt our new GM is a member of the The Huddle.

I think there are lots of guys here at the Huddle who would do great as our next OC...

If you don’t think so just ask them

Comedians... They're everywhere.

agreed about experience running a no huddle. don't see that as a part of the three i see most mentioned in here as desired replacements.

norv turner runs a pretty conservative offense and people have decades of tape on what he does.

mccoy benefited from being josh mcdaniels lackey, lucking out with The Golden Calf of Bristol in a really bad division, and then peyton manning as a QB. always overrated. extent of his workouts with QBs here was throw the ball into a bucket.

chud...more creative than shula, but lacking in situational awareness just like chud. you want a team that can make adjustments? look somewhere else.

There isn’t really anything magical about coaching the no huddle. This is like saying we need an OC with experience with the I-formation. It’s ubiquitous.

got to be able to trust the offense in the no huddle. something that shula couldn't do.

    • I think you have to factor in that we're still not an attractive proposition for Head Coaches. You're not getting the cream of the crop if you fire Canales a year after winning the NFC South, especially considering the situation he walked into.
    • Yeah, I was about to say I hope he's doing okay health-wise because he's not looking good in that pic.
    • Honestly, I dont  think he should be on the hot seat yet. A bad start to next year, then yes. Despite our mistakes on play calling this past season, we played better than anticipated overall. Bryce showed improvement and maturity (although still not nowhere close to our expectations). Better record and 2-15 to 5-12 to 8-9. Despite what we feel the stats dont lie we are improving by 3 wins a year. Could 11-6 be our expectation. That's a high bar but at the rate we are going, thats what its looking like. We all want to see a 5-12 to a 13-4 record but we are methodically moving up. Success doesnt happen overnight (well in most cases).  IMO we are struggling mostly on the defensive end. LB and edge are our biggest weakness. I see Bryce making improvements (even though I was a Bryce hater) next year. Biggest concern is LT on offense. How to fix this? We need a big name edge or to trade up and get a big name edge or LB and pick up one in FA and draft one. Also if in the 3rd we can pick up a TE. Dont know if Sanders is the answer or Tremble (even though I love Trembles blocking and power after the catch). If these two can get their footwork together they would be great. Maybe all they need is a better TE coach. And if Brooks can stay healthy and be the back we thought he could be, man that would be great
