One would assume, and hope, now that Carl has his HC in place that the offensive assistants are contacted about extentions, post haste.

To hell with the assistants. Who is the OC?

How well a HC does is determined to a great extent by his staff, and by extention, an OC's performance is is influenced by how good his staff is.

Herm Average, as with most coaches unless they were great coordinators themselves, will only be as good as the coordinators he can put on his staff.
If he brings in very good coordinators then it should be a very good team, anything less will probably lead to a struggle. Going through 3 OC's in 5 years at NY we know he doesn't really have his own philosophy on that side of the ball nor does he have any good connection with an existing OC that would be worth bringing in. That probably bodes well for the current system staying somewhat in place.

This article pretty much sums up what I've been trying to say. I don't care if Saunders gives Herm copious notes on how to coach the offense down to the minute details, every coach/person will interpret them differently.
Not hiring Saunders is gonna backfire in so many ways. Now even the veterans are warning about their displeasure... Dammit Carl!!! |

ANY coach that comes in here and tries to tinker with this offense deserves to be flogged in public. But remember, even Marty Schottenheimer realized what he has on offense in San Diego. Edwards would be a retart to try and re-introduce this team as a "Three Yards and a Cloud of Dust" type of offense, Larry Johnson or no.
As for the defense, I don't think we will automatically jump to a Cover 2 phillosophy. We just don't have the personnel to run it as our base defense. I can see musch of the same for our D in 2006, with new wrinkles. |

I wonder what was discussed when Carl intervied Al Saunders last week? I bet Carl asked Al if he'd consider working under Herman Edwards as OC if the price was right. Every thing I read says Saunders is gone if he doesn't get to be HC but I've never heard it from him. Is there any chance he'll stay to run the offense with Edwards as the HC? It wouldn't suprise me to see Saunders do what he did two years ago and take some big money to stick around.

What would you do? You've worked for the same company for 15 of the last 18 years. You been passed up for a promotion three times, twice by guys that never proved they were as competent at their jobs as you have been. You've shown over the last 5 years that you are the best at what you do. Would you stick around, even for more money?

It also concerns me because wasn't that the same basic system that we moved away from with Greg Robinson? I'm not saying it can't work, but that's some bad memories. |

The difference is philosphy. Spinner's scheme was a passive one. Kiffen's is aggressive. As for personnel, we are essentially looking at better talent in the defensive front, something that we need regardless of scheme, and more speed at safety.
