I dont see how you could hire a coach not from the Shannahan tree right now. 

theres just too many examples of quality coaches at this point. I've always been a Shannahan guy, and seeing all these coaches and OCs having success if I were an owner would for sure lock me in to hiring someone else off the tree. 

Ben Johnson would be my only outlier. Besides that you gotta get that scheme its just so helpful for young QBs.

Ben Johnson comes from an interesting background that can be traced to a mix of Andy Reid influenced guys (Brad Childress) and Mariucci influenced guys (Greg Knapp). So he's running essentially a Shanahan-esque scheme without the heavy outside zone mix on the OL. His style is very much a Walsh WCO.

Might be a good option for you guys once Arthur Smith is canned

Yea my first thought if Smith gets fired was BJ. Offense would be scary.

College coaches is hard to say, Jim Harbaugh for sure might wanna get back in the NFL. Also I'm sure David Shaw name will be out there again, he interviewed in Denver last year and they loved him.

He's legitimately my No. 1 choice. As long as they keep Nielsen and Gray for the defense. They have been excellent in improving this defense and building these players on that side of the ball.

Monitoring this threat for HC's. The GM here in Atlanta has done a good job buying the groceries so far. Roster is much better than it was when he got here. Issue is Arthur Smith is an idiot.

If this a thinly veiled attempt to blame Ridder's inefficiencies on Arthur, we can see through it. 

Arthur Smith is not a good HC, but the QB position needs an overhaul. Both things are true.
