John from Riverside Posted January 14, 2017 Share Posted January 14, 2017 I think that McCoy was probably first choice.....now the next guy on their list is still coaching int he playoffs. I think it is important that we do NOT rush the OC hire.....because we are going to have to replace having a top 10 points scoring per game offense now that Lynn has moved on.

CommonCents Posted January 14, 2017 Share Posted January 14, 2017 Another poster had a good thought, they must have a hand shake agreement with one of the OC still in the playoffs. The KC guys both make sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FLFan Posted January 14, 2017 Share Posted January 14, 2017 I agree. This hire is critical. I am intrigued by Tom Cable, who I think would be a very good fit here. SF is rumored to be interested in him as HC though, and I am not sure he would leaves the seahags for an OC position. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Estro Posted January 14, 2017 Share Posted January 14, 2017 (edited) I believe you're right. The position still open indicates to me the guy they want is still coaching. Matt Nagy, an Andy Reid disciple, had 3 years in Philly with McDermott he's also younger, but he's only been the OC (co-OC). I'm not sure he has the play calling experience it seems McDermott is looking for. Edited January 14, 2017 by Estro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Take as much time as you need Whaley One big issue is that the current coach must be released from his contract. Even promotions do not release a coach from a current contract unless he is moving up to head coach. An expiring contract would be the likely situation, but even then the coach would have to want to leave a playoff team and/or not be wanted back by that team. I'd rather the position get filled before the supply of quality coaches dries up entirely. Who knows? Maybe there's an agreement in place with a coach, but it hasn't been announced yet.

Ed_Formerly_of_Roch Posted January 14, 2017 Share Posted January 14, 2017 On Thursday when McD first was announced as coach, the rumor was his LB or DB coach at Carolina would become the DC. That didn't happen at all, so other than the media saying it was McCoy, who knows if he was even seriously considered or not. I do agree likely the reason nothing is being talked about for OC is it's all agreed to who it will be but his team is still playing. And agree it likely is one of the two from KC. Why else would you hire the OL coach if you don't know who the OC will be? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kelly the Dog Posted January 15, 2017 Share Posted January 15, 2017 where did you see this? There were reports from some relatively minor sources that Kromer was released from his contract. He signed a two year contract two years ago though, so he would have been free to sign with any team. It's hard to know if he was actually released before it ran out. They could have done it as a courtesy because he is being considered for other OC jobs, rumored to be for the Rams (although McVay is going to run that offense).
