Bill Callahan is a guy who worked with Childress, has been an OC, and is Washington Oline coach, and HC, might be a guy to look at.
Obviously Nagy respects Childress, looking through guys Childress knows, and his name stuck out. Not that he would be my guy, but having someone with OC experience for a guy who has never called plays is something important.
Has had a few bad years in Seattle - but he comes from West Coast / GB and has experience running an unconventional offense and utilizing an athletic QB. Definitely someone to consider I'd think.
Holy Shit - We got Justin Fields!
In my former life I was known as FencikFanatic.
Oh, and if you were wondering - yes I'm real. And I'm fantastic.

That's what confuses me about his firing... look at the offenses he has coordinated during his time here (I am excluding his Vikings OC days because I think Childress was calling the plays there):

He has 5 years of working under Brad Childress, whom is very close with Matt Nagy during their time in KC, and he coordinated two offenses to the Super Bowl, winning once... and he did it with a QB that has a similar skill-set to Mitch Trubisky. I think it's a hell of a move, honestly.

I didn't say that. He does have a different skill set compared to Staley, Westbrook, Hunt, Mccoy, or Charles. I would think that would change his roll a bit. He has the ability to work with in the running scheme. I just don't think he is getting 250+ handoffs a season. He can still be productive just in a different roll.
Kind of like Ingram with the Saints a few years back.
I think if Nagy is a smart offensive mind like most seem to think, he will adapt the play calling and scheme to the personnel. Unlike Martz who could not operate with Greg Olsen and we ended up giving him away...
I kind of like what Tennessee has done with Mariota ... they don't specifically encourage him to run but they do make use of his mobility ... I think that is the kind of thing Trubisky can blossom in
it seemed the Bears were intent on trying to make Trubisky a stereotypical dropback QB, which was counter to what they allowed him to do in pre-season, which only confused me as to wtf they were actually trying to accomplish

Jeez. Thinking... Cam Meredith could kill running those out and up concepts out of the slot... And Cohen could go nuts with some of those out of the backfield deep plays. Oi.
Mikefive's theory: The only time you KNOW that a sports team player, coach or management member is being 100% honest is when they're NOT reciting "the company line".

Are you trying to suggest that Seattle got to those Super Bowls because of their OFFENSE? I suppose the whole Legion Of Boom thing had nothing to do with it?
That's why I never wanted Shurmur. Nobody with inflated performances because the other side of the ball was elite.
