I'm not trying to discount his qualifications. I honestly don't know much about him. Based on his resume he seems to be a good hire. Perhaps you are right and both came into play in the selection process.

I know is he is an O guy but everyone wanted Grimes gone so he is gone. Does that mean we got better? Do we change blocking schemes etc. I thought the freshman were coming around good.

quote:
Cregg spent just one season in Knoxville before moving out to California to become the offensive line coach at USC for the next four seasons (2010-13). Cregg coached first-team All-Pac-12 selections in each of his four years with the school, including offensive tackles and future NFL first-round picks Tyron Smith (No. 9, Dallas, 2011) and Matt Kalil (No. 4, Minnesota, 2012). In 2011, USC finished second in the nation in sacks allowed (eight) despite not starting a senior along the offensive line.

quote:
In 2007, Cregg landed his first NFL job as an assistant offensive line coach with the Oakland Raiders (2007-08). In 2009, he was hired to coach the offensive line at the University of Tennessee. That season, the Volunteers allowed just 12 sacks, tied for fewest on the Southeastern Conference.

quote:
In Cregg’s first year with the Broncos (2014), Denver’s offensive line featured new starters at all five positions. Despite the changes, the Broncos allowed the fewest sacks in the NFL (17) and ranked fourth in the League in total offense (402.9 ypg). Tackle Ryan Clady earned his fourth-career Pro Bowl nod.
