rayzor Posted January 15, 2021 Share Posted January 15, 2021 Not to be confused with his brother, Packers HC Matt LaFleur, is reportedly Salehs choice for OC. This is obviously a crucial hire. He's in his early 30's but has decent experience: As coach: Elmhurst (2009) Offensive assistant Saint Joseph’s (2010) Quarterbacks coach Saint Joseph’s (2011–2012) Offensive coordinator Davidson (2013) Offensive coordinator Cleveland Browns (2014) Offensive intern Atlanta Falcons (2015–2016) Offensive assistant San Francisco 49ers (2017–2018) Wide receivers coach San Francisco 49ers (2019–present) Passing game coordinator Curious if Mike McDaniel was considered. Hopefully, we won't wind up in a situation like the Dolphins last season. Brian Flores had brought along Chand O'Shea, the WR's coach from NE, to be his OC in Miami. He was eventually fired after his first season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pointman Posted January 15, 2021 Share Posted January 15, 2021 The trend of younger and younger coaches is fine, but that resume looks awful short on big time experience. I guess he is either going to be a savant or.. a gase. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Be_a_Jet Posted January 15, 2021 Share Posted January 15, 2021 I think McDaniel is the better Shanahan disciple between the two but they’re both great I feel. I do think Wilson/Darnold are better fits than Fields though with this type of offense. I still hope they draft QB although I think LaFleur can get Darnold playing a lot better. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post choon328 Posted January 15, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted January 15, 2021 LaFleur was brought in here for 1 reason and 1 reason only. To install the Shanahan passing game concepts for either Darnold or a rookie. That's it. No further debate is required 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ID. Posted January 15, 2021 Share Posted January 15, 2021 Just read an article that provided some insight into how the 49ers offense worked. It’s from SI, so take it with a grain of salt... - Mc Daniel oversaw the running game - Shanahan was the play caller and schemed the play-action passing game - LaFleur worked on the drop-back passing game, which according to the article, was very basic and designed to beat coverages It seems both LaFleur and Mc Daniel do the bulk of the game planning during the week and hand it over to Kyle on game day. Seems like LaFleur has got enough experience in the planning phase and I’m sure he can leverage Mc Daniel’s running concepts and Kyle’s overall implementation. Seems like they all worked closely putting everything together. I’m excited and hopeful, but the one thing we’re all going to need is patience. On both sides of the ball. It’s going to take time to get the base packaged installed, then moving to more complex schemes as existing players learn and we get better personnel. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cimini said that the offense Bates ran in his rookie year was very similar to the shanahan offense so Darnold should have no problem picking it up Rich Cimini (@RichCimini) Tweeted: From an Xs and Os standpoint: Saleh runs a 4-3 base, predominantly zone. It's the Seattle/Pete Carroll system; lot of Cover-3. Mike LaFleur, expected to be OC, from the Shanahan school. Fits Sam Darnold, who ran similar scheme as rookie under Jeremy Bates. #Jets https://twitter.com/RichCimini/status/1349937273308123136?s=20 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The one positive thing about a Shanahan system is that it is very QB friendly. I think Darnold will play better in this system but the contract that above average QBs are getting are still approaching $25-$30 million per year. I'm not sure how you can commit to that when you have a chance to do a complete reset at the position this year after resetting the Coaching staff. You can bring in CJ Beathard for $4-$6 million and he can provide the same level of play in this offense as Sam could. He's already proven that. Get what you can for Sam and move on. 6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bring in Beathard and the transition time will quicken very quickly. Then, you only have to worry about your rookie QB getting up to speed but Beathard can hold it down till he's ready. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most pro QBs can handle new systems. This is one of the biggest myths in football if you ask me, the big worry that a QB will not pick up a new system or is in trouble if he has to go through 3 systems in 4 years or whatever.. and after gases awful system it could only be a step up 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maury77 Posted January 15, 2021 Share Posted January 15, 2021 I can’t speak for LaFleur because it is his first time as the OC, but Shannahan has been able to adapt his system to fit his talent over the years. A lot of people claim that Fields is a poor fit for Shanahan’s system, but Shanahan was the only guy that got Robert Griffin to thrive in the NFL at Washington. Jets staff should figure out who they like best and adapt the system to that QB, not the other way around; otherwise, we are back to the same dilemma the team had with Gase.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We may look to get a strong, experience OLine coach and Run Game Coordinator. The 49ers went to the SB on the back of a great rushing attack led by the NFL's highest paid fullback. If the Jets want early success on offense I think it may have to come out of a better than average rushing game. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Being a coordinator or even a HC is like the QB position you either have the brain power to make quick decisions or you don't I'm not sure age matters much if you have been around the game your entire life. As someone here said most NFL playbooks are the same only the terminology and some trick plays differ. How you develop a game plan vs different opponents is the key to being a good OC or DC along with adjusting at halftime if things are not going as planned. We have not seen that here or anything close to it with Bowles and Gase but its certainly the key to being a good HC and Coordinator. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
