The reason you want your HC as OC or at least partly your OC is that if you have a good OC, he's more than likely going to get hired away fairly quickly. Just look at the guys we're talking about.

Agreed.  We saw it on the defensive side with McDermott and Wilks.   Though Wilks wasn't given much of an opportunity to turn a franchise around.  They jettisoned him as soon as Kingsbury became available.

For the record, my top choice is Rich Bisaccia. I'm not a huge fan of chasing the next Sean McVay because as often as not, what you actually wind up with is the next Joe Brady.

Now with that said, there's an argument to be made that if you don't keep up with the way league offenses are going right now, your risk being left behind.

If you watched the Chiefs-Bills playoff game last season, you'd have to ask yourself whether a defense based team could have withstood that.

And then on the other end of that, you have a team like the Lions who proves that you can have a league-leading historically dominant offense (35 ppg) and still be 1-3 and in last place in your division if you disregard the importance of fielding a competent defense.

The Lions didn't disregard their defense.

They just picked the wrong person to run it.

The retread proven winner idea sounds nice... until you look at how many of them fail to reproduce their success.

The Dolphins and the Cowboys both hired two time Super Bowl winners in Jimmy Johnson and Bill Parcells. Neither of them sniffed a Super Bowl with their new teams.

Still better than Rhule. If Jim Harbaugh won only half the games he did in his last stint he'd still be a better coach than Rhule.

This football organization is in shambles we need an experienced Coach/leader to fix all three phases. Someone who has done it before comes with their own roadmap. Harbaugh was a success record wise but he's still hungry for that Superbowl.

Andy Reid says hello.

Quick word to Shane Steichen fans (I know @TheCasillas is one)

A potential glitch in getting him to Carolina could arise if the Chargers dump Brandon Staley. There's chatter that Staley might be on the hot seat this season.

Steichen (who is originally from and grew up in California) spent about ten years with that organization. He'd likely be a pretty popular choice to replace Staley if he's let go. Already being well known by team leadership certainly wouldn't hurt.

Whether or not Staley gets fired is up in the air of course (the Spanos family can be kind of unpredictable). Even if it's not this year though, if the Chargers job is the one he really wants, he could have a chance to get it before too long.

    • Then we had some impressive coaches to finish 8th from worst plus all of our injuries.  Titans and Raiders were pretty bad as well.
    • Agents have been out-negotiating GMs for years. That's why they had to implement the rookie wage scale. Top drafted rookies were basically starting to walk into the NFL as some of the highest paid guys in the league. Take it up in the next CBA. In the meantime, it is what it is. Agents hold the upper hand in these rookie negotiations and they know it. The teams already have a significant unrecoverable investment spent on these draftees in the value of the pick that they spent. Given the rookie wage scale there's not much to negotiate other than guarantees and offset language and once again the agents are kicking the GMs' asses again.
    • Except it's not about the money, it's precedent and teams not wanting to go down that path.  Once you guarantee all the 2nd rounders, then the 3rd rounders will want it, and so on.  If they keep viewing it as say, "well it's only X amount of money" then it's a slippery slope that doesn't end. Then you get Free Agents saying, "well if you're fully guaranteeing the contract of an unproven 57th pick of the draft, you clearly should be fully guaranteeing mine as your big FA signing this offseason" The NFL doesn't work with fully guaranteed contracts under it's current cap model.  If you want to give them out to the true elite of the elite players at impact positions like QB and Edge, then so be it, but there needs to be a line in the sand or it will get real messy.
