Doug Pederson for OC?

[CallMeADawg]

Not a fan of the Jags offense. Way too Trevor centric. So many wasted weapons and a painful team to watch. McDaniel would be my target, if it doesn't work out in Miami.

When in Philly he ran the ball a good clip. Also won the Super Bowl against Tom Brady and the Pats.

Philly drafts the trenches round 1 every year. We do not.

I'd be down for some Dougie P. Won an Owl Nick Friggin Foles. Maybe he'd be content at this point in his career just running an offense and not having to worry about all the other crap. Local guy too. And very little chance of getting poached after 2 previous head coaching gigs.

Seems like a Doug P. would be a nice fit.

I always liked him. From Ferndale. Won a Bowl. Seems like a good fit.

How have his teams run the ball is the question. Doesn't strike me a smashmouth offensive mindset type of guy. Thats what MM wants. Ball control.

We actually draft trenches at a pretty similar rate.

Bring him in for an interview.

The Jags had 100 yards more rushing than us - 6 yards more per game this season. He's a cool dude and mabye a great OC? The Jags just looked really bad.

I'm going to stick to my guns on another college to pros guy in Kotilneki. That guy is a whole nother kind of beast on offense. I'll never remember how to spell his name right but I'll never forget the wizardry of his play design and calls. Big on option schemes and loves to run the ball.
I'm always leery about guys who just got fired from somewhere else.

Anyone thinking old Douggy wouldn't be a good coordinator might not be paying attention to the league much. He would fit right in with what Mike wants his offense to be. Mike comes from the Harbaugh coaching tree. Harbaugh comes from the Andy Reid tree, same as Pederson. What i like about Pederson is as a head coach he called his own plays. So it's not like he has to get used to calling plays again. This may have been his downfall in Jacksonville. That team probably needed him to relinquished those duties so he can focus on the overall team.

We need someone with legit experience in the NFL. He certainly qualifies.
