Anyone else. The answer is bring in anyone else. Literally can't have much worse results from a Run Game Coordinator, and it's not like the pass blocking has been good either, as they've been top-10 in sacks allowed each year except the one year they played 1 less game than most of the league (and were 11th) despite the passing game getting shorter and quicker.
I hate the whole "who else are you bringing in who will be better?" argument because you don't ask yourself where else you're going to stay tonight before you call the fire department to put your housefire out. You put out the fire first and then worry about where you'll sleep that night because the alternative is watching it burn down to the ground.
I guess that I'm in the minority when I think that the rushing game won't change much, by simply changing OL coach/run game coordinators. I see the problem as more of a result of the offensive game plan in general. I think that Zac and Brian saw it too, and that is why everything looked different in the SF game, in that brief window while Burrow was mostly at full health this season. A lot of people thought that they had changed the offense for Jake Browning, when if fact everyone important to the offensive game planning has been quoted as saying that these were things that they were working on all along, but couldn't implement early in the year, due of Burrow's calf injury.
Volson is meh, but I like him, and he has far exceeded my expectations
