Bucs OC Liam Coen as a HC candidate [Schefter: Coen is staying in Tampa on a new contract] [A reverse…Jags hire Coen as HC] (5 Viewers)

[Saint Greg]

I'm really curious to know the true back stories on why we aren't interviewing Coen or Johnson. I know we have heard that Johnson said "no thanks", but even if that is true, Coen is not in a position to turn away interviews. Is there something about him that our FO doesn't like?

We wanted him as OC a couple years and he went to Kentucky instead. It could have something to do with that. But he would've been my 2nd choice after Johnson.

They were 27th in points and 32nd in yards his one year as OC in LA. To be fair, eight games were started by backup QB's.

But you know that with McVay it's a OC in name only position

Tampa Bay Times’ Rick Stroud reports the Buccaneers are “preparing” for Liam Coen to be offered the Jacksonville Jaguars head coaching job.

The smoke has been strongest on Coen and Robert Saleh for the Jaguars since Ben Johnson signed on with the Bears. Coen has also been linked to the Raiders, but has not had an official interview with the club yet. The Jaguars would certainly boost Trevor Lawrence’s short-term outlook with Coen, a creative screen-designer who excelled with the Buccaneers last year as they finished seventh in offensive DVOA. The Jaguars are reportedly set to meet with Coen tomorrow.

That dude is in a really good spot. I don’t fault him for staying

 

[St. Geezy]

Was really hoping to see the Bucs lose this guy.

So what do the Jags do now ?

They’re going to Jag this up somehow, settle for some off the wall name no one has heard of or a true-failed retread.

They already jag it up, Liam was their favorite candidate.

Saleh?

 

[BoNcHiE]

Saleh was their #2 choice so that's probably where they go next.

I don't care as long as we are still in play for Joe Brady, who has been my top pick all along.
