Still no news on OC?!?

Wonder if they are waiting on someone still in the playoffs

I doubt someone would do a lateral move from a playoff team to Carolina. Unless they were just like an offensive assistant, in which case I'm cool.

Maybe an Officer and a Gettleman is watching tape with Rivera nonstop to try and find the right fit.

Wonder if they are waiting on someone still in the playoffs

Did a little digging on 49er QB Coach Geep Chryst and re-learned something I had forgotten.

Chryst was on the coaching staff (specifically, offensive quality control coach) of the Chicago Bears from 1991 through 1995. Ron Rivera's Bears career lasted through 1992. There's at least the possibility they're acquainted, though they wouldn't likely have worked together.

If the name sounds familiar to you, it should. Chryst was a member of John Fox's coaching staff in Carolina from 2006 to 2010 (quality control, tight ends).

Speculation is that Chryst will join former Panther colleague Mike McCoy as the OC in San Diego.

If we're waiting for anyone in the playoffs, I suppose it could be him. It's a bit of a stretch though.

Here's another remote connection from a playoff staff.

Ivan Fears, the Patriots receiver coach, was the Bears WR during the 97 and 98 seasons. Rivera was with the Bears as a defensive quality control guy. Fears is a 35 year coaching vet who's coached every facet of offense except tight ends but has never been an OC.

Again, it's a shoestring. I doubt he's a candidate.

      Give Legette another season?

      By Jackie Lee · Posted

      Trade up for a project was dumb, he's gonna be 25 next month. By the time you're deciding on whether he's worth the 5th year option or a big contract you're already gonna be thinking about moving on soon either way.

      I mean this is legit AF statement....you don't spend that draft capital on a project just like you don't trade up for an injured RB either, which was done in the same draft.  That draft IMO was a necessary evil for DM to learn from his mistakes (I think he did but some may not). Also I have to mention I'm a big Coker fan and think getting him as an UDFA was obv a steal.  Coker is the better WR2 at this point as Legette and its not even debatable unfortunately.  Give him year 3 but don't expect much from him.  Continue in the offseason with adding as much talent and competition on the roster as possible including WR.  Or just trade his ass for peanuts and continue to build roster by any means.......

      Losing him was a huge loss. Look at how the Bears went from a 5 win team to now a 11 win team. The Lions offensive line is bad this year, secondary is bad and Campbell going for it on 4th down all the time has cost them games instead of taking the Field Goals. Goff is inconsistent as well.
