Coaching and Front Office Changes

Well, I believe Scott Turner, as Norv Turner's son, may get some of the same type accolades, we just don't here them. He did take a rookie qb in Carolina and do pretty good. So the question becomes who does Rivera jive with better. That is where Rivera having final say over his staff, and actually doing honest evaluations is so important. It will also be a test of Haskins growth as an NFL player if he changes his offseason habits to match Rivera's hard nosed approach.

Will Scott have trust in Snyder who fired his dad? Is there any resentment there? Maybe KOC OC Scott QB coach as being floated.

There are really 2 questions

1) would Norv tell Scott to wait for another option.

2) If you are KOC, and the Rivera brings his old OC in to be your QB coach do you feel comfortable that a back channel from QB coach to HC won't develop if friction occurs.

Bottomline, Rivera has to have the full control to bring in, or keep, the guy that will be right for the team he is building. I am looking forward to hearing how the staff is built.

Riverboat is doing the right thing not handing the job over to O'Connell...that woulda been a "Bruce"-like demand. Let Ron take his time and assemble the staff the way he wants, I have a feeling both KOC and Scott Turner could be on staff

I only want KOC if Rivera wants him. But acting like KOC hasn't done jack or is a no-name is completely ignoring all evidence to the contrary.

I also welcome Scott Turner if Rivera wants him too. I want Rivera to have a staff that is fully on board with his plan.

Good new article by JP regarding KOC

Rivera says here they have a ST coordinator in place. Was told that is in reference to Nate Kaczor, who is staying on in the same role where he helped guide Tress Way to a Pro Bowl season

Morocco Mole could be back

It's been reported KOC is widely respected in the league, even from his playing days backing up Brady in NE.

Anybody who thinks he wouldn't be able to find another offensive coordinator job is delusional. Matt Lafleur landed a HC gig based off 2 years of OC experience with the Rams and Titans. The majority of NFL teams would love a young up-and-coming offensive coordinator.

All those media reports that talk about the respect KOC has, do you think they wrote those without talking to people outside the Redskins org. about KOC?

No, i don't think they wrote those reports without talking to other people. But some of those same ones in the media are saying KOC shouldn't automatically get the job and that Rivera is wise for doing interviews. Both Sheehan and Finlay have said on their podcasts KOC would not necessarily be a hot OC candidate on the Market. Sheehan, especially.

Also, a person can be widely respected in a certain role; that doesn't mean that other teams covet that that person to promote in their own organization. a QB coach can be widely respected - that doesn't mean another organization would make him their head coach or offensive coordinator.

KOC presided over the 2nd-worse offense in the league. 30 other teams already have better options than KOC at their OC position already. Some orgs in a rebuilding mode might take a chance on him, but its not guarantee. My point is that KOC is not YET viewed in league circles the way Sean McVay was or the way Eric Bieneimy is right now.

He, like Haskins, is young, and has showed promise. There's a lot to be excited about with KOC. But he's not yet on the same level as the top OCs. He's much closer to Scott Turner than he is to any of them.

I'm not saying this to trash him. Purely due to his relationship with Haskins alone, I'd want to keep him on the staff. If he's the best OC candidate Rivera interviews, then i'll be very happy to have him on staff. If not, then let him keep the OC title and work with Haskins, but bring in the other guy that Rivera likes better to run the offense.

No one is saying he hasn't done jack - just that he hasn't done anything to deserve being handed an OC position.

I want to assume I'm reading this wrong, because it reads like you think KOC was promoted to OC and then playcaller even though he didn't do anything to deserve being promoted.
