Yeah, but he set a pretty low bar for them with is run first, low risk offenses.
Who is available for OC?

Russ and Geno both have pretty great numbers under Pete.
Efficiency numbers like completion percentage and passer ratings, yes, and that's due to Pete's conservative nature. Not so much in gross stats like total yards. In 2022, Geno had the #1 completion percentage in the league but was just 12th in total yards.
Pete's long suit is defense. He's not a quarterback whisperer.

Run first is hardly what the offense has been for the majority of the past 7 or 8 years. They've been mostly above average in passing frequency is neutral situations through that time, other than when they were the best rushing team in the league in 2018/2019.
I keep hearing Kafka's name as an OC target, but I don't see why he's getting so much love. Having a great def minded HC is great, but I think the only way to get ahead of the pack is to find the OC that has a chance to be great. I wanted MacDonald as soon as I heard about Pete leaving. I just hope he takes the opportunity to bring in someone who won't settle for being solid as a play caller. I want the same kind of optimism on the offensive side as there is now on the defensive side. Can Kafka be that guy or does Mac have something, or someone, up his sleeve to bring with him?

What do you know about Kafka, other than his name?

I'm as curious/excited as the rest of you as we go through this offseason opening up new toys. HC, check. OC? DC? Position Coaches? All of that is going to be fun to follow.
Maybe I missed it, but with all the talk about MM and his defense, does anyone know what type of offense hes hoping to run? 3 yards and a cloud of dust? Ground Chuck? West coast? Sean McVay clone? I guess we will know more about that once an OC is hired.

the experts def. come out of the woodwork.
Only what I've seen of his play calling with the Giants. Pretty vanilla compared to the difference makers around the league.
Just funny how a bunch of people are experts about someone they didn't even know about a few weeks ago

Rumor is Ryan Grubb is already leaving Alabama for Seahawks OC
Now THAT would be hilarious. Sorry, deFRAUD. I would love it.
Even if I can't see it happening.

This is an interesting development. 710 is talking about it now
And for those who may not be familiar with UW and their offense, I promise you, Grubb is a flat-out ringer as an OC. VERY good, and VERY creative.
