Charger Coordinator/Staffing News and Discussion

[Boltnut]

Staley said in his presser it would be a week or two. Just hope he has some good ones in mind. Maybe he is waiting for McVay to let him hire O'Connel.

A week, or two... sounds like he's looking at position coaches from playoff teams. I really like Tampa's LB coach, Mike Caldwell. He's developed young LB's and made his run defenses top-10 with various teams (Jets, Bucs). Our defense could use those improvements. The Bucs defense is something we should be looking at... not just Rams defense.

I was just thinking that he may be waiting on someone from that Bucs D as well.

how about bringing back kevin ross to run the D?

Duce Staley asked to be released from his contract in Philly. Makes sense as he got passed over again. I wonder if he would make sense as an OC for the Chargers. Granted, he is more from the Andy Reid system and not the Shanahan system thats for sure. But a good coach is a good coach - can adapt.

Both are variations of the West Coast offense.

Andy’s changed his offense so many times, I feel like it is it’s own thing now. Kind of like Walsh creating the WCO or Ohio River Offense out of necessity.

Gannon to the Colts

It looks like it might be Renaldo Hills job to be DC of the Chargers - unless there are names from teams still playing. Kevin Ross and Mike Caldwell from the Bucs are interesting names

Staley calling the D may not appeal to some DC prospects.
OC will have more responsibility.

Thats a good point. I would prefer the HC not call plays to be honest. Enough going on in the game. He can always "suggest" things - be involved with game planning. That would be my preference actually.

Chiefs fans disagree. Norv did it too but as a first time HC , id think he would have enough on his plate though also being a first time HC , he trsuts his cals more since he hasnt had anyone do it for him. Cept when he was an assistant. Who knows.

I’m not necessarily a fan of Bowles defensive scheme. They don’t know how to balance their blitzing attack.

[Xenos]

I love how even Schefter hedges his bet by saying “tracking”. God I hope Lombardi learned from his previous failure and tenure as the Lions OC.

[wu-dai clan]

Repeat after me Adam.

"Brian Daboll is tracking to become LAC HC."
