Choose your new OC! (poll)

Yeah, but he was a head coach. Lots of guys are great OCs and terrible coaches. Todd Haley is the apparent fan favorite, and he was an awful coach with an awful offense. I think what really makes one look twice at Caldwell is that even though as an OC with a thriving offense, Peyton Manning was his quarterback, who not only is the best QB in the game capable of winning 12 games by himself, he basically calls his own plays. Does anyone even know how much Caldwell really did as Manning's OC?

 

I included the candidates who seemed to be getting the early "love" from our board. I had to draw the line somewhere or else there would have been too many choices, so Caldwell didn't make the cut. Also, the fact he's "Tomlin's guy", as you phrased it, likely will disqualify him in Art II's eyes.

 

What about PWP? I thought he was sending a resume in.

 

I'm in the Hue Jackson camp. I think he did a wonderful job with Jason Campbell the past two years.

 

I included him in "someone else".

 

TY guys very much....I did send it in ,,but I highly doubt I will have a chance,but I do appreciate the Love.....We all want the best for our Team and I have Faith we will move in the right direction......

If I was the OC we would already be on that path...LOL....At least we are on a non-BA path and that's a huge step in the right direction....

 

Just out of curiosity has anyone thought of Matt Cavanaugh, experienced coach, local ties?

 

I am not sure who I really want. After hearing what Art wants to see, I am wondering if he will name himself the new OC?

Anyway, living here in the Baltimore /Washington region all I keep hearing is that Cam Cameron will be let go. I do not want the Raisins getting someone who we will have wished we had offered the position to first.

I realize that the Rooneys do not go things too quickly generally, but really I hope it is done soon... and correctly!

 

Any ideas of how long before we name a new OC; days, weeks, a month?

 

I guess if we went outside I would like to get Billick so I can hear ray ray cry when we beat them

 

This probably tells us that he is the right choice! Did you know that when Walt Disney made big decisions about his business he would ask his 10 closest confidants they're opinion and whatever their majority vote was to do, he would do the exact opposite! I think it worked! Welcome your new OC, Randy Fichtner everyone!!! Seriously, they will make the right choice and we will be back in the mix next year! It was time for a change. I have never been super fond of Arians playcalling and those predicatable wide receiver screens were a nightmare at times. I cannot wait unit training camp!

 

S.I. sportswriter Peter King's speculation is on Jim Caldwell. Given their Tampa Bay roots together, I'm sure Tomlin would be fine with it but I'm not sure Art II would feel the same. I could be wrong, but I don't think Tomlin has complete control of this hiring decision.

 

Just to refresh your memory, Todd Haley received the single most votes in our poll (other than someone else). Good job by the 32 board members who chose him!
