Re: Some Inside Info
I really have doubts about bringing in Turner to be the OC. Not sure why. I think in other situations he's a pretty good OC. I just don't think it'd be the right move here. Had my fill of Air Coryell, maybe. Looking for a more modern, WCO variation.

Re: Some Inside Info
I agree no more that style of ofense, we need someone who is creative, enegertic to come in a build an offense around Joe, use his strengths and go from there, in the same breath, remeber RICE one of joes strengths.

Re: Some Inside Info
Meanwhile Moeller is doing what as an offensive line coach?

Re: Some Inside Info
Well, let's look at that for a second. Williams and Birk are done, no amount of coaching is going to help them. Yanda was fine, but he's hurt. Grubbs was fine last year before he left as a FA. Osemele I think has been average as a rookie at RT. Oher is average at best as a LT, maybe even below average. Harewood and Reid are bad. So are the struggles of guys like Oher, Harewood, and Reid a problem of bad coaching, playing out of position, or are they just missed draft picks?
Personally I think Oher is miscast as a T, he's built more like a guard. Reid has given them very little since being drafted, and Harewood was a project. I dunno, I'm on the fence about whether that's a coaching issue or a scouting failure. I'd tend to say a little of both.
Seems to me Moeller is mostly criticized because of his off the field issues. That doesn't really make him a good or a bad coach though.
Another thought I had. Is the o-line struggling because of bad technique (coaching) or just getting beat physically (age, scouting)? Seems to me it's more of the latter.Never get in a fight with a pig; you both get muddy, and the pig likes it...

Re: Some Inside Info
Now that Cam is gone, it's too bad that Jim Zorn is in Kansas City. I think Flacco would benefit by having Zorn around again. Of course, the way KC has gone this year, maybe there's a possible shake-up brewing and Zorn would be available to coach Joe again.
