The issue is that him not being the right guy for the gig won't prevent him from being here for 10 years or so.  I realize the guy is our OC whether we like it or not, but it's pretty frustrating that a team with the 4th ranked offense that is trying to keep the window open would go with a rookie OC and hope for the best.

I realize more than just Hue to Zampese took place between 2015 and 2016, but it sure looks like our owner/GM gave one of his lapdogs a job he wasn't qualified to do and the entire team suffered because of it.  I'll give Zampese another year, but it seems pretty logical that he isn't a real NFL OC and a "maybe he'll be good eventually" OC isn't the type of OC a team that is actually trying to compete should appoint as OC.
