Simmons has been a good coach for us and if the new HC wanted to keep him i would be all for it.

Just as a matter of principle, I would like to see him here, if Marv is removed. He lost his job twice, when his HC was fired in Buffalo and Tampa.
I feel that Mixon's running style is better suited behind a zone blocking scheme that Pollack uses.
Aaron Rodgers sure liked Van Pelt too and Dalton seemed much better this year in terms of not panicking
when the plays broke down. Think Van Pelt had a lot to do with this as he was working with Dalton in this
aspect before the season.
Agreed on Mixon and Pollack, give Pollack a couple more good Lineman and than we can judge.
Redmond, Hart and even Glenn have not been decent. How much this is on Pollack i do not know but i want
to give him more time before saying he is not the answer at OL coach. One year is not enough to know.

If the team is doomed until Mike formally retires, then I could go for some new shtick - the blank stares, clapping and giggling are finally starting to wear on me.
If a coach can actually come in and succeed under the MB regime, then it would need to be someone young (as a HC), and innovative. Innovation might be an answer how a HC could get past being hamstrung by the organization.
Innovation and the ability to adjust during the game are what we need here that is for sure.
