Frank Reich may spurn Chargers for mediocre head coaching job

this might be a bit biased of a writeup from a chargers fan page.

Frank Reich might be better off being the offensive coordinator of the LA Chargers.

 

 

I saw that article.  It's funny how the author thinks a HC job with Carolina is worse than a OC job under a coach on the hot seat.  Reich would get at least 3 years to get things going here, provided he didn't flame out the first 2 like Rhule.  Whoever takes the OC job for the Chargers might get fired at the end of this next season with Staley.

This is what concerns me about Frank Reich, if there is a concern.

I've heard analysts say the huge variety of run options is actually what makes Kyle Shanahan's offense so effective.

Perspective is a funny thing.

I would gladly welcome any semblance of Kyle Shanahan’s offense here in Carolina. It would be a refreshing change from the run, run, long pass/quick 3-and-out offensive playcalling we’ve become accustomed to, though it had been a bit more creative toward season’s end.

who was his QB during that time?

He had several as you know. He never won the division. Luck? No. Rivers? No. Brissett? No. Brissett arguably looked better as a Brown. Ryan looked better in Atlanta.

Reich is supposed to be the offensive guru. He's made questionable decisions as HC, and his offense looked like a mess under Ryan.

his "failures" in indy were still better than most of the seasons in our franchise's history. it wasn't until the owner started meddling in an effort to give him a chance to hire his buddy the HC job that reich started actually losing. 

if reich was handicapped at all in indy, it was by irsay. 

That's debatable. 

Reich isn't exactly a poster child for sustained excellence. He has a LOT to prove.

I'm fine with Reich. I think a lot of the problems was the roster assembly up there under Broussard or whoever the GM was. Not to mention Irsay, and while Tepper is poo, HE AIN'T IRSAY. Continuity was beyond his control as Irsay kept wanting splashes (well poo so does this fanbase). But whoever takes over the deal better be four years and no more. We need the Bengals model to be successful. Just remember the Jacksonville game for the Colts last year and how awfully mismanaged that was. I don't think any of these three would serve as a good head coach, but out of the three, it should be wilks just because we know what we already have. If we have interviewed this many people and it's a no, and nobody has said from which side the NO came from, that is a HUUUUUUUUUGE red flag much like this past preseason.

He has a lot to prove?

then what about some young guy who has been a coordinator for 2-3 years and never lead a locker-room in his life?

Excellent work Mr. Scot!

It's a battle of two coaches with HC experience, had to overcome awful QB situations (one being washed vets; the other being former FRPs that flopped). Both also had rough ownership issues at their respective previous stops that led to unfair firings.  

I give the edge to Reich because he has won a SB as an OC, has a good coaching tree and brings an offensive approach for the first time in our franchise's history.

      Kon is a damn stud but it’s not any individual player’s team. All of the “big 3” are incredibly and equally important IMO. And LaMelo makes Kon way better (look at his shooting splits with LaMelo on the floor vs without. Also Moose and even Miles are important cogs. Honestly think we’re 1 piece away from being legit top contenders if the young guys continue to develop the next year or two. I trust this FO to be patient to find that piece within the next 2-3 years and not force anything. Plenty of time and even without adding anyone we have the pieces in place overall already to compete with any team.

      We lost 2 very close and winnable games against top teams in the league while missing 3 critical players despite 2 of our top 3 players shooting unusually terribly. Still split the 4 games that Moose and Miles were suspended, winning the most important one vs the Hawks. This ain’t yo mama’s Hornets man. Hopefully Coby can go soon but even if not Moose and Miles are huge additions for our starting lineup and bench rotations. Schedule is pretty tough after these next 4 but I think we’ll take care of business the next 4 to get to .500 then finish slightly above .500 after that to get a 7 or 8 seed. Keep it rolling boys. Also Kon is having an insanely historic rookie season as a shooter. Like truly can’t believe my eyes watching this kid level of historic. Man what a fuging home run of a draft pick and exactly what this team needed to take that next step forward. He’s gonna shatter the rookie 3 point and franchise 3 point records. Has a real chance to be the 2nd best 3 point shooter ever or dare I say even get to Curry’s level (as a pure shooter, Curry obviously has way more to his game that has made him a GOAT).

      Mike Kaye: LB Devin Lloyd could be a realistic possibility

      By strato · Posted

      I hear you but yeah like you say, above average. His numbers were good. You’d think it would be a no brainer. Anyhow… I guess the new staff is also fine with him walking?    I hope if we sign him there isn’t some secret issue of his that led to him not being valued.
