AZBearsFan Posted January 17 Share Posted January 17 Getting this right is so important IMO, regardless of which QB we have next year. There are so few truly transcendent “coach-proof” QBs. Look at Hurts with Steichen in 2022 compared to with their 2023 OC. Night and day. Look at Josh Allen with Daboll or Joe Brady at OC vs. Dorsey. Tua was a big bust until they got McDaniel and now he led the league in passing yards. Even Mahomes with Nagy calling plays vs. Reid is significantly worse. Beyond the top guys, look at Garoppolo with and without Shanahan. Alex Smith with or without Reid. We know Fields isn’t coach-proof but that doesn’t mean he can’t succeed. If we go with Williams, we certainly cant assume he’ll be coach-proof either. Ideally he is, but that’s got to be a bonus and not an expectation. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HuskieBear Posted January 17 Share Posted January 17 Kubkak and Waldron are my 1A/1B - i'd be ok with either. If we bring in Waldron, I'd like to see Greg Olson brought in as his QB coach. Not sure who Kubiak would have - his QB coach when he was an OC/playcaller in MN was Andrew Janoko. I wonder if that guy is available?

Plenty of experience within the McVay system...was made AHC after just one year on staff before be paid really well to just to Carolina...has been interviewed by the Titans for their HC role this offseason as well...leadership is his best trait... Concerns would be limited play calling experience during his time in Carolina and doesn't have a background with QBs... Would be #3 for me if he has a plan to bring a quality staff with him.

That offense was bloody AWFUL, even worse after Reich was fired. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Madmike90 Posted January 17 Share Posted January 17 If he isn't an OC he would make an exceptional AHC/RB coach... Served on the same staff as Waldron & Coen in 2020 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G08 Posted January 17 Share Posted January 17 A part of me wonders if we are trying to get a feel for the entire staff... something like: OC: Waldron QB coach: Olson Pass game coordinator: Coen or Brown Run game coordinator: Roman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could see them trying to get as much of that 2020 LA Rams staff together as they can. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madmike90 Posted January 17 Share Posted January 17 Looks like the Saints will be running the "Shanahan/McVay" offence as well this season...hopefully we start to home in on who we want soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kind of makes you wonder if there's not a college scheme out there to adapt so you're not all chasing the the same types of players running the same plays and routes.

Worth noting if we are going the Williams route. It would telegraph our move (maybe we sit on any formal announcement until post-Fields trade?) but hiring Scangarello as QB coach for Williams would make a ton of sense to me. It would be the very definition of a consistent voice in the kid’s ear and he’d come in the door with a lot of trust. Especially during what would be a HUGE transition year I think that comfort for him would be big. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
