What offensive coordinators can we realistically get?

These NFL guys like Pep are dinosaurs i.e. body blows. Who can we realistically get that can turn this offense into something that utilizes our WRs, passes to rbs and qb runs more? I like Brian Wright at Toledo.

We aren’t going to get a good offensive coordinator... We will be stuck with the most predictable offense in college football all because of the stubbornness of King Harbaugh

I have to agree with you.  People are complaining that the D is the issue (lately) but it still falls back to the offense for me.  You can't expect even the best defenses to stay out on the field over and over and over and not expect them to be beat.  The offense has to be better and has to score points or at least stay out on the field for awhile.  Sheeeeesh

I just wish JH and staff could bring in more of a college offense and stop trying to use a pro style offense which is easier to defend IMO.  There just is no .... hmmm ... anything.  It's just so plain and predictable and has been for several years now.  For me personally its been my only gripe about this team. 

He has to see that (I hope) there is just no spark to this offense.  It's just dead with no flash to it at all.

I have been the biggest Harbaugh slappy there is but that is over.

Imagine what UM would look like with the same defense and a really good offense.  We probably wouldn't have beaten OSU but at least not get blown out.  And we would have probably beaten Florida.

If Harbauh can't fix the offense, then he needs to go.

They definitely didn't get any push today. They were completely handled by Florida's defense. The problem is the lack of available talent ready to step up and play. Maybe next year after another offseason of weight gain and technique training we'll see some improvement, but year one with a new OL coach isn't enough. The problem is that recruiting was terrible under the end of Hoke and with Drevno. There just weren't enough players who were going to be both good and ready this year.

Who cares?  The bar could not be any lower.  We just took a delay of game after a change of possession down three scores.  It's a joke at this point.

And I really believe that is the problem - he's a control freak that is going to have the final say in any offense.

Say what you want about Urban, but he was smart enough to turn the Haskins-style offense completely over to Day when he returned from his 3-game suspension and man, did that offense take off. The problems that OSU had this year were defensive issues, not offensive.

There are dozens of options that would work just fine.  Anybody that can balance Harbaugh's lizard brain, like Jedd did, would work.

Have the QB calling his own plays at the line of scrimmage, and you can save over $1 million too. You will get better results then this piece of shit offense

Khaleke for Captain.  No quit in that kid. 

Time to seriously soul search on your offensive hierarchy and structure.

Clusture Fucks are fun with girls but not in football.

It’s not just getting an OC, it’s limiting Harbaugh to trust the OC, and keep his fucking hands off the play calling. His “system” sucks in that it takes so fucking long to get to the line and snap the ball.

The only say he should have is what to do on 4th down (kick, go for it, fake). Every year it gets harder and harder to want to continue my season tickets.

I love going, but when I spend more time walking around the stadium instead of sitting there watching a botched abortion, I have to ask myself if it’s worth it. Right now, no.

Remember when everyone decided they liked Pep again because he "Came off well" in the amazon documentary?

Delay of game. A damn delay of game when down in the 4th Q after receiving a kickoff when trying to get back in the game! Fire everyone on the offensive side of the ball not named Warinner. Seriously. Little Harbaugh better be gone too.

History says it'll either be a washed up former 49ers employee, a washed up former Stanford employee, or a washed-up recently fired college head coach.
