Mentioned the other day Bengals ass't Hue Jackson was interviewing for Carolina OC job, that interview just wrapped up. Shurmur there now.

Jackson would also be a frontrunner for the OC job in Cincinnati if Jay Gruden were to get a head coaching job somewhere.

If they want Jackson they might have to move quickly, unless he's wants the OC job in Cincy and is willing to wait it out.

you also have to take into account how hue fits in with the rest of the coaching staff. This is about building relationships. I like his fire but would he pair well with Rivera. Does Rivera have the capacity to keep him in check with that ego thats been widely reported. Successful teams have a level of cohesiveness, that might be in question bringing someone like Hue in. I love the guy, think he is an awesome offensive mind. But does it fit in with what Rivera is trying to do. And yes we can talk about Rivera being on the bubble so it doesnt matter. But I believe this team is built for a deep playoff run. Others certainly disagree.

I think it could work well.

I believe that Rivera is ready and willing to turn the offense totally over to the OC if he were a seasoned vet. The OC here would probably have more free reign than with most staffs.

Just my opinion.

    • Neither Barkley nor even a healthy CMC would move the needle much for us. Those are guys that impact teams that already have impressive overall offenses and defenses, so they can perform the complimentary roles that make them actually valuable. We should know that specifically because CMC almost never moved the needle on bad Panthers team after bad Panthers team. Ask Giants fans about that with Saquon.
    • I would generally disagree. You see a lot more load management than previously but that is because being healthy in the playoffs is such a key factor. Different philosophies in that regard than previous generations.  Baseball really doesn't matter until at least halfway through the season. I am not gonna say they don't play hard but the physical demands are infinitesimal in the MLB in comparison to basically any other major pro sport.  People dislike all the shooting these days but that's a direct correlation with how much the overall skill level of the average NBA player has drastically risen over the past 15ish years. There are other aggravating factors, certainly, but that is the biggest one in terms of playing style differences. So many of the guys from the 80's and 90's wouldn't even be able to play in the modern NBA at all. The biggest problem the NBA has with the American market(they are the only US sport that has any real international appeal or interest, minus the NHL) is that they are so steadily corrupt and fix the systems against the small market teams. Well, you eventually lose a big chunk of the league viewership/potential viewership in the process. Take the very obviously fixed NBA draft lotteries. Superstar and upper tier star players rarely want to play for small market teams, nor can they usually afford to pay them. So how do you expect them to possibly compete in that environment?
