Nick Underhill expects the Saints to hire a new offensive coordinator in 2024

Slowik is staying with the Texans. Looks like the OC pool is shrinking and our Front Office is still just testing the water.

I really think the only thing Slowik was considering was a HC gig if he was to leave. I just heard the Texans gave him a nice new contract to stick around.

Who on the 49ers are we interested in?

Klint Kubiak, passing game coordinator, for one, Danno. Brian Griese, QB coach, as the other. Both were early interviews for the Saints OC position.

I wouldn't be disappointed with either. And neither really has a path for advancement with the 49er's as Kyle Shanahan is OC in addition to being HC and is also the offensive playcaller.

Can't blame guys like Slowik, Jerrod J and Ben staying put in 2024 for their respective teams.

Just expect a 2nd tier OC signing in NO.

Probably still an improvement over Pete “The Coffee Man” Carmichael. Lol

It will be interesting to see how Pete and Sean do together Denver.

If they don't make a decision this week then I believe that they must have a bad crush on one of the Super bowl coaches. If not, I guess it will be Chuckie calling plays next year.

I think the quote below may be the direction the Saints take if they do indeed hire Gruden. Similar to the Ireland position for the organization:

Gruden likely would be an addition to the Saints offensive staff rather than a replacement for offensive coordinator Pete Carmichael or another coach in an existing role, the source said. The Saints made a similar move in 2015 when they added Allen to the staff as a senior defensive assistant while Rob Ryan was defensive coordinator. Allen was promoted into the coordinator’s role 10 months later when Ryan was fired.

On a side note, I just saw that LB Coach Michael Hodges interviewed for D-Coordinator for the Patriots.

Beyond the development aspect of the job, Hodges is a fantastic cultivator of relationships with his players. At just 37 years old, he is a young coach in the league and working with both young and veteran players can therefore be a challenge. Hodges however, has done nothing more but rise to that occasion. Not only has he been excellent working with younger guys but has built a valuable relationship with a veteran player like Davis that has paid dividends for the entire defense.
