tonykola Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 Hey lions fans looking for feedback. How about Gary Kubiak for OC. He runs a lot of play action passing and seems to check all the boxes for what the lions are trying to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just Want A Title Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 From what I have read, he seems to be done with football. He decided not to take the Denver Broncos OC job so that speaks volumes. I have posted another sleeper candidate in another post who I think could turn out to be a great fit: Indianapolis Colts Assistant Quarterbacks Coach Marcus Brady.

tonykola Posted January 12, 2019 Author Share Posted January 12, 2019 This just reported Jacksonville is bringing in Kubiak for interview. Looks like he's in play. Guess will see Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just Want A Title Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 That might be an interesting potential hire. Still, with his previous health issues, he is kind of a risky hire in terms of commitment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would be a big disconnect between our OL coach and OC if they hired Kubiak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously, they want their new OC to be able to work with Davidson's blocking schemes/philosophies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diehardlionfan Posted January 13, 2019 Share Posted January 13, 2019 Based on the title I thought a new OC was hired. Kubiak, no thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just Want A Title Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 Kubiak is going to the Vikings as an Assistant Head Coach/Offensive Advisor: https://www.yahoo.com/sports/vikes-add-kubiak-assistant-head-coach-offensive-adviser-025033458--nfl.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lioneye22 Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 Just read on Profootballtalk.com that the cowboys might fire Linehan. Not sure we'd have interest. I'm hoping they're waiting for Waldron. My fear is that we take too long and end up promoting Davidson or Godsey; or heaven forbid Charlie Weiss. I would've liked Hackett, I hear he's headed to GB.

Karnage84 Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 We're hiring Darrell Bevell, former OC of the Seahawks. Infamous for not giving Marshawn the ball on the 1. Not quite sure what to think of this just yet. https://www.detroitlions.com/news/lions-hire-darrell-bevell-as-offensive-coordinator Coaching statistics https://www.pro-football-reference.com/coaches/BeveDa0.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lioneye22 Posted January 17, 2019 Share Posted January 17, 2019 I don't necessarily hate the move, but I'm not jumping up and down over it either. It's a safe, vanilla move which seems to be Patricia's MO. My guess is that if Davidson was in on the interviews, he'll remain as run game coordinator with bevel handling the aerial attack and calling the plays Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
