I thought O was going to follow the young NFL up and comer formula to emulate Brady. Guess not.

What an amazing turnaround for their offense after Linehan was fired before the 2019 season and Kellen Moore took over.

He was good before Garrett held back the offense

Aside from the "who" of this hire, this approach doesn't lead to success in general.
not arguing that either, but you look at the pelini and linehan hires, definitely seems to be where he's focusing.

Being fired from several positions doesn’t mean his resume is amazing

Using that logic, is the same as saying losing joe Brady didn't matter at all.

Kellen Moore was the OC for Dallas this season. It looked like we had a lot of qualified and potentially good candidates. Linehan has a lot of experience, but as some have mentioned he was not innovative, but won't be asked to run the offense.

Hopefully he can help develop our QBs. I'm not excited about the hire, but it's just PGC. The question is if he is going to be transitioned into the OC job when SE hangs it up. That would concern me.

some of our fans are such douche nozzles. Always think they know the best hire and fit for our program based on their inside knowledge.


Inside knowledge? This guy has bounced around the league for years, and hasn't been anywhere for long, with good reason.

Now if you want to call that "inside" knowledge, then I must be an insider. But I call it "common" knowledge.

What gets ME is how some fans are so deluded with their fandom, that they throw a tantrum when anyone questions the team.

So much for young, innovative, & someone than can recruit a 17/18 yr old kid.

Should hire Jeff Fisher as well if we are going for nfl failures.

Nobody here would give two shits about the passing game coordinator if it wasn’t for Brady. In reality there’s nothing Brady did that Linehan can’t do. This is a good hire.

of course it matters, but Joe Brady didn’t reinvent the wheel. Watch the Carolina Panthers offense this year

Are we going to pretend Brady didn’t completely revamp our offense now because he doesn’t coach here?
