Posted January 1 I guess gotta give ole Dled some credit. I could see some Matt Ryan influence going into the Koetter interest. He loved working with Koetter. mashburn*Fibonacci and poutlipper like this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 1 Can we please just get Kubiak already? It makes so much sense for both parties it’s ridiculous if it doesn’t happen. Falconsin2012, oxygencube, Francis York Morgan and 10 others like this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 1 We've gone through so many OC's that it's difficult for me to remember which is which. Was this the one who didn't know how to work in screen passes? TheFalcoholic, YungFalco and runshoot like this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted January 1 I dont ge why ppls are so down on Koetter.... I get at times he can get to cute but i think he is a good OC. I think yall just dont want him because he was the OC before.. I want Kubiak but im not going to act like Dirk sucks just because i want this guy as the OC I know we all want Kubiak but the Broncos is not letting him out the house... We have to move on.....

I have no doubt he’s been asked if he wants it. We can’t sit around while he makes up his mind. Need to be prepared for plans B, C and D.

My guess is that Kubiak maybe hasn't made his own mind up yet. I haven't seen any reports of him interviewing anywhere else. Also, I haven't seen him tied to any other team besides us and obviously the Broncos. We can't wait around for Kubiak. Who knows, things could change tomorrow. Think we're just doing our due diligence just in case... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 1 I’d rather have Koetter than Bevill. I thought he did a good job while he was here. youngbloodz and 1989Fan like this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 1 He did have top 10 rushing offenses in 2007, 2009, 2010 in Jax and 2015 in Tampa. In Atlanta he had over the hill Steven Jackson which didn't help him much. dawgsfan426, Ergo Proxy, TheFalcoholic and 4 others like this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted January 1 Quote Will be hard for the Falcons not to go with Dirk Koetter as the OC, knowing Matt Ryan's fondness for Koetter. This hire has to be about what's best for Ryan, and Darrell Bevell might not be that guy after working in Seattle with Russell Wilson. Can't be any guessing games between Ryan and the OC; has to be someone he's confident and comfortable with. Koetter definitely is that guy. Said Ryan a few years ago after Koetter's first stint with the Falcons: "You know, Dirk taught me a lot about being confident in what we do. I think he believed in -- and rightfully so because, at the time, we had a lot of really good players -- he believed if I was comfortable with it, go. It made me take ownership of what I liked; what I didn't like. He pushed me to be better in that department.'' dawgsfan426, Falconsin2012, MilleniumFalcon and 1 other like this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I kinda like the idea of screen passes to Devonta and Ito or even Ridley. That could be good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think Kubiak is staying in Denver. The only hint of hope I see is that we fired the TE coach. Kubiak brings his TE coach, Pariani, with him for every job he has. Seems like we were making room for Pariani yesterday Edited January 1 by Falconsin2012 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 1 If we do hire Koetter, Matt Ryan already knows the playbook. There wouldn't be the year one learning curve like with Shanahan and Sarkisian, so there is a better chance the offence hits the ground running year 1. dawgsfan426, mashburn*Fibonacci, ZoneOne01 and 4 others like this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted January 1 I am fine with this. I don't think this is a bad move. We had some good offenses under Koetter. PokerSteve and Geneaut like this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Steven Jackson was our starting RB his last year here....Before that it was Micahel Turner at the end of his career also.. In 2015 when he was the Bucs OC.... Doug Martin rushed for over 1400 yards on 288 carries..... My point is when he had a back that can run... He ran the ball PokerSteve, Oldmanfan, raysnill1 and 1 other like this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
