  • Didn't the Browns go the "no-OC" route once before, under Pat Shur-loss? Here's hoping Hue has better results.

    Also with Marty if I'm not mistaken, with the DC.

    WSS

  • Anybody have any insight on Pep Hamilton? I know he was the OC for Stanford and later got canned by the Colts.

    What kind of offense does he run?

  • I assumed this would be the case and I like it. Taking the lead and trusting himself, Pettine could learn something in that...

    Pep is listed as a West Coast guy, but seemed more spread to me...

    Pet did learn... He learned that an HC cannot focus on one side of the too much.

    I can see an HC reserving play-calling responsibilities, but to not name an OC??? Don't like that at all. Among other things it creates too many direct reports for the HC at too many different levels in the Staff Organization.

    Marty, too... cost him his Browns HC gig...

  • I've listened to a bunch of PFF broadcasts breaking down Pep's failures with Luck, and boy were they legion. He would always have Luck doing 5-7 step drops and throwing deep despite the fact that their OL was average and Luck's deep ball is also pretty average. Made no sense yet the rammed that square peg into that round hole until the dang thing broke. He had pretty much zero running game whatsoever. No thank you.

    Also strikes me as very dumb to not hire an OC.

  • head coach in the NFL is too time consuming a job by itself without trying to also handle the duties of an offensive coordinator, ESPECIALLY in your first year.

    merely calling plays on gameday is altogether different. it is a good way for new blood to learn how you like to have your system run firsthand, including your philosophy and mindset behind it and what, when, where, and how to employ wrinkles you are partial to. hopefully they hire an OC...

  • "Fritz Pollard Alliance" what is this? is this where we are primarily getting our coaches from?

    Good take right here......and, if I was putting a positive spin on no OC, this would be it.....

    Im sure there will be someone, other than Hue, game planning and strategizing during the week

    Associate HC and senior offensive Assistant seem like they fit the bill

  • ... not to mention Run Game Coordinator.
