Please make Doug Marrone our OC

Dirk Koetter just became Tampa Bay's head coach. He's off the market.

They should bring in Jim Mora for the OC and Buddy Ryan as DC.

I'm sure the Bengals would win ALL of the postseason games then.

I am also certain that Hue - or anyone else for that matter - never uttered a word instruction to Hill about the most important carries of his career before he went out on the field for "The Fumble".

It's the simple fact that he sent him out there to carry it at all.

That was another unfortunate side effect of Shazier trying to end Gio.

Compared to the rest of the league Palmer has regressed since he left here.  In 2005 only 4 QBs compiled a 95 passer rating.  In 2015 six QBs had a passer rating over 100.

When you look at the big picture Palmer was better under Zampese than he was this year.

If you can honestly look at Palmer, who is 36 years old and has had multiple serious injuries, and claim that he has "regressed" since his time here, then I give up.  Good day to you sir.

Yeah, as long as he is conscious, Gio would have been the ball carrier in that situation I have to imagine. Trust him to hold onto it much more. Or at least have the intelligence to put two hands on it.

That would basically be the trifecta of post season failure... by the laws of nature, I'm not sure you are allowed to assemble all of that in one room...

Whatever House was spouting Andy was believing in.  When you have a student having confidence in what you're saying, it makes a difference.  Especially if he sees results right away.

Lane Kiffin should get a look

[Millhouse]

Whoever it is I hope it happens soon. All the good ones are being snagged up and we will probably end up promoting or hiring someone that never has been one before.

I worry about his inability to work with others but marvin could handle guys like that... Hue had a similar reputation.

I don't know how much the Bengals' OC position pays, but I'm not sure why Kiffin would look at it.  He is doing extremely well at Alabama, is finally in a stable situation, and I would think needs to rehab his image a little bit more.

Laner Kiffen has never been an OC in the NFL, and the only time he has been successful in college is when he had an overwhelming talent advantage (USC, Alabama)

NFL is totally different from college and Kiffen has been a failure in the NFL.

You are giving up because the facts prove my point.

Palmer still has just as good of an arm as he had here.  Anyone that watches him throw can see that.

No, I give up because trying to have any sort of debate with you is pointless.  You count your opinion as some sort of gospel while completely discounting the opinion of others.  Because after all, much of this conversation is just that... our opinions.  Add in the fact that I just think you like to argue (a good trait for an attorney) and I choose not to continue.  Again, good day to you sir.
