Interesting. I think Gase would do a much better job of getting Tavon involved and utilized in ways that fit his skillset, and really that goes for all our receivers including Cook. Peyton Manning speaks extremely highly of him. He's the opposite of what Fisher typically wants at OC however, and there are some concerns about how much of that offense was really him. Not sure how I feel.

And this makes sense how? Looking at Roman and Shanny with Boras name out there, they are clearly looking at a run-centric offense. Whats the point of Gase? Are they that uncommited to a style of offense based on their personnel? All I can hope for is that this means Chud would still be in play once Indy is out of the playoffs

It's suprising, to say the least. He doesn't really run a fisher type offense, but it's nice to see that he'll be given a look. Maybe Fisher is hitting the Vermeil wall, and willing to branch out into something a little different.

Rams want to talk to Adam Gase for coordinator job

He was up for some head coaching jobs, but Adam Gase might be the hottest property in the coordinator market soon.

According to Adam Schefter of ESPN, the Rams have requested permission to talk to the former Broncos offensive coordinator for their vacant play-calling job.

The Rams let Brian Schottenheimer walk out the door for the University of Georgia, and could obviously use an upgrade there.

The job would present a challenge, whether it’s with Sam Bradford or whichever quarterback they bring in this offseason.

I'm really hoping this is the case. Maybe Sneads been in his ear saying man we've got a lot of speed and talent on this offense wasting away because we keep trying to make this a ground and pound team in the age of passing. All the new rules make the passing game harder to defend than ever before its time for fisher to back away from the offense and hand the keys over to someone that knows what there doing in this day and age. Of course none of this works without a healthy Bradford or a really good plan B at QB.

I get the feeling that Gase will be coaching in Denver again next year. Either in the HC or OC position.

Well, he won't be in SF, so who knows...I'm a little surprised that the 9ers went with their def line coach as the head coach..Just seems a bit of an odd choice to me...With their offensive struggles last year, I thought they would go with a bit more of an offensive-minded guy...I thought their defense was pretty much set...

Yeah, hopefully the whiner front office fucked everything up by promoting their "yes man". I've seen whiner fans refer to Tomsula as just a Yes Man and ass kisser of the FO.

He's a 49er's man. He's endured the tenures of like 3 coaching staffs now. I also can't help but think that the front office wants a guy that they can control in that position.

Yeah, the Yorks are kind of weird...Best thing that could happen to the whiners is if DeBartolo could get the team back...His personal choices cost him his team, but he was a real good owner for them aside from that..

The fact that Fish wants to interview Gase demonstrates that he is not as conservative minded as he is often thought to be. If somehow the Rams hire him, and if he is as good as Peyton Manning seems to think he is... Rams would be in business.

I like this idea ^, But I'm, more than, a little concerned, after the last OC we got from Denver!!

He is certainly a hot name right now - and as others have mentioned - it's nice to see the Rams take a broad look around.

It would also be nice to grab a guy who may feel like he was snubbed by one of our division rivals.

I'll stay cautiously optimistic on the hire and the potential. I remember bragging to my dad a full offseason when mcdaniels was brought in.

I don't know people always seem to wall Fisher in as a run first coach but his teams has always been more about balance and most of the times his teams pass more than they run. He never drafted a lineman in the first round, well he did and he also showed that he wouldn't mind a open spread passing attack at the time the players and schotty wasn't equip to handle it.
