Good thing the offensive line has nothing to do with the run game, that way we can change RB coach, fix everything, and keep our incredible oline coach Doug Marrone who has done such an excellent job developing Trevor Penning, taking only a few years to put Andrus Peat and James Hurst in their correct positions, and turning 1st round picks into stars like Ruiz and middle round picks into servicable players like the excellent contributions Saldiveri made this season while inactive.

But seriously we could have prime Adrian Peterson as our starting RB and SB coach Gary Kubiak as our RB coach and we couldn't run behind this oline.

I'd like to see us get under center a lot more and run the ball and use quick play action strikes. It will keep the defense on their heels and this will help Carr be more decisive. When he is the shotgun he has a tendency to stare down receivers, check down to the RB too often and his pocket awareness is marginal so putting him under center keeps us out of a lot of bad plays.

It kind of makes you wonder why no one else is asking to interview Douggie Marrone. Or an even better question would be what the hell is he still doing in New Orleans? I guess they are going to let the new OC fire him.

I think you are actually right on base with this one. Whomever we finally settle on will undoubtedly have a tremendous amount of input upon who helps run his offense as far as coaching goes.
