Thanks for the link pretty awesome to see housh out there. Is he a coach with us or is he kind of just mentoring them before the season?

I have no idea if Housh has what it takes to be a good coach, but even back in his playing days he always seemed intelligent and well-spoken. He was also the kind of guy who made himself a very productive player without possessing elite athletic ability. Those guys seem to make better coaches than the ones who were great just because they they were freak athletes.
Of course TJ might have just looked smart compared to Chad who often had trouble composing an intelligible sentence.

Sometimes it's easy to forget our quarterback and #1 receiver didn't have any veterans for advice. They were just kinda thrown to the wolves and succeeded.

Eifert very well could be special. And yes Housh seems to have that gift of gab, he could be a good coach in the making ?

I'm going to disagree with that. I think Dalton had a great mentor in Jay Gruden.
I also think Green received a lot of good coaching. Even someone like Mike Zimmer, who specialized in coaching defensive backs, I'll bet he had pointers for Green that he passed along to the offensive coaches.
So I don't believe they were thrown to the wolves.

Housh will end up being a good position coach in the future. I think guys will relate to him and he has a a lot to offer in terms of on field experience. It would be nice if he ended up on our staff one day.

Housh will make an excellent coach. He's cagy, knows how to relate to players and knows how to avoid injuries. Hopefully he ends up here some day.
And I loved what he was saying about Eifert. Eifert made a great reach behind snatch in the video. Gave me hope that we will have a different outcome this year.
