Thread: Coordinators and position coaches need to be nailed down soon.

Yeah well that was then and this is now. George McCaskey is everything his brother never was and first and foremost that includes a reasonable amount of football smarts. Mikey got a strong dose of his old mans genes and we should all remember that GSH called him the dumbest SOB he ever met. George hs more of his mothers genes and therefore his grandads too.

I think one key in this search is that Emery would like to keep as much of the defensive staff intact as possible so that the new guy can concentrate almost entirely on his offensive staff and personnel needs. Emery had that kind of cushion as far as his first year went and I think he sees the benefits of doing it that way.

I am really really hoping that this is the case. I'm thinking that if it isn't broke, then why fix it? I think Marinelli and the defensive coaches have done a solid job.
