RpMc Posted January 21, 2021 Share Posted January 21, 2021 Let’s just hire Bieniemy ourselves and give him the AHC title. Wouldn’t be a lateral move and he’d get to call plays. /shrug 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he’s not the guy, they’ll just promote Klint Kubiak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RpMc Posted January 21, 2021 Share Posted January 21, 2021 I agree with that, just enjoying spinning a tale before we fall back on the more boring option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Klint Kubiak to OC, Andrew Janocko to QB coach, and hiring a new WR coach seem to already be the foregone conclusion. I certainly can’t say that I’d be surprised by those moves given Zimmer’s post season press conference where he spoke about his desire to keep things the same on offense.

Just a hunch, might be looking for a new OC and HC next year if that’s the plan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s never called plays at any level; there’s an art to it, and for a coach who could be on the hot seat, I’m not sure he’d want to hitch his wagon to a rookie. That’s the only thing holding me back from Making Klint even money for the job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t trust going the young and unproven route on a Zimmer led team. It seems the offense has the most success with veteran offensive minds. Stefanski, while new to his OC role, was with the team for over a decade, which isn’t the case for Kubiak. I fear it may just be another DeFillipo situation. Maybe it will work since Kubiak has at least been with the team for a couple of years and at least the offense will mostly remain the same for three years. I just hope that Klimt, if hired, can bring a new approach and not be so predictable. I’d like to see Cousins under center less and fewer runs on second down and long.

vikesfan89 Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 Klint would be risky but at least Zimmer has worked with him already. Cousins has shown improvement while he's been here imo. Hopefully he takes the good from dad and improves on it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, Stefanski was an NFL assistant coach for 13 years before becoming OC. Klint Kubiak has been an NFL assistant coach for 7 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The same type of cohesion and terminology could be accomplished by promoting Rick Dennison or hiring Anthony Lynn, but, at least in Dennison's case, there's significantly more experience as a play caller.
