False. Two plays don't make you MVP of the Super Bowl. Especially when one came off the arm of the QB who won the award.

And Dennison as well. If this goes through, we just picked up 3 OCs in a single day lol.

My thinking is if Kubiak does well here in one year he'll get a HC job somewhere, then Shanahan will just continue on with the offense as the OC. Shanahan didn't get many looks for an OC job out there this year so this is his next best shot.

To think after all these years we've really only had 1 real OC in Cameron, who ran his course here after about 2 years and Billick taking the reigns himself in 2006. Now we could, possibly, be getting 3 guys at the same time who could conceivably all be OCs somewhere.

Are people just more excited about Kubiak because he has more experience than Shanahan (because they run virtually the same system) or is it the possible influx of talented coaches Kubiak will bring with him that truly has people giddy?

Real MVP? Please.

We didn't do that because we wanted to though. We did that because the Oline was awful in run and pass blocking. It was a way to give Flacco more time and to get less guys in the box on plays we did try to run the ball. If we had been able to run the ball at all we wouldn't have seen near as much shotgun.

Think what's being overlooked (maybe not initially) but more recently in this topic is that if they go with Shanahan the FO and Harbaugh know the system needs to be changed and that the system is the problem. If they go with Hostler the FO and Harbaugh don't think the system is the problem, just they haven't found the "right" guy to run the same system they've had since 2008.

Still works that way today. Even up here in ol Canada. Though oddly enough I had a university biology prof who said it was a good website to get information from in terms of biology because in his "lookings" everything had been cited and cited properly.

Some of these posts make one wonder if people actually want Hostler? A guy who spectacularly crashed and burned in his first chance as an OC. Yet in the same breath they think Kirby needs to get experience, but somewhere else because we don't seem to have the time for growing pains, all the while willing to hand Hostler a redemption chance? Sound logic there. Don't give a guy without OC experience, whom by all accounts would have been the Steelers OC had he not almost died, but we'll give it to a guy who was so horrible during his 1 year stint that Gore would have rioted if Hostler was brought back. Essentially some are saying they're into second chances when that persons first was god awful, but not first chances for someone who has the credentials for an opportunity.

Great, Shanahan vs Hostler.

Kirby actually probably intrigues me the most of the remaining candidates. Think he's more of a power run guy if Im not mistaken. Though he has no experience. Im actually surprised with how much we're looking into Shanahan considering he's from THE zone blocking tree in the NFL. I thought Harbaugh had given up on that? Though he promoted Castillo... contradictions abound in this post of mine lol.

Lol no, but I think it was documented at 260 for sure a little while back.

Some of those years was just Ben under siege and being 280 pounds watching LBs bounce off of him, then chucking up a bomb. And it worked way too many times lol.

Anyone else think it odd that we don't have an OC right now but we're scouting the senior bowl for offensive playmakers? One would assume an OC would have an idea what guys would fit his scheme.

By real time vote through mobile phones based on Baltimore's Madden 14 playbook lol.

Please, they gave him a real OC with a real offensive philosophy and he actually started growing.

I'd argue that him knowing the offense and likely continuing it is the reason he shouldn't be the coordinator, nevertheless how he showed gross incompetence in his prior posting as an OC. The offense doesn't need a continuation of the system run since 2008. It needs new life breathed into it.

Ya they don't even need to waste time interviewing Hostler. The guy practically had his ex players paying his plane ticket to get the hell out. And also, Hostler "knowing the system" should be another reason he doesn't get interviewed. The offense needs a philosophy change or some monster WRs.

Better be strictly so we can truly figure out just how much he doesn't know about offense.

Didn't work? Foster led the league in rushing one year and AJ continually goes well over 1200 yards.

Would fit with the pure zone blocking direction we seem to be headed in. With Castillo as the only Oline coach there is, we'll be doing zone blocking again. At least Kubiak knows how to call plays that take advantage of zone blocking and will be able to show Castillo how it works.

That girl was so hot lol

Lol, its a trying movie to say the least. Though I think the premise is quite interesting, in that some lives are inexplicably linked through time, no matter if your life was replayed 100 times, your best friend would still be your best friend in every scenario, Cloud Atlas portrays it through reincarnation however.

Its a legit movie and take it from me, outside of Uncle Buck (which is barely an 80s movie) I despise the "classic 80s" movies and really most everything associated with that generation lol.
