How long do you think either coordinator would be here? They would get scooped for a HC job somewhere.

My opinion is we need to hire someone like McDaniels or Nagy who would control one side of the ball... as a play caller or has brought in his offense and has a OC to run it, and if that OC gets hired away, the scheme stays the same and the HC could call plays if needed.

This team needs an offensive minded HC more than it needs a defensive minded coach.

It doesn't seem like it's been much of a problem for John Harbaugh. ST Coordinators may not have experience with offense or defense (though Toub does have limited experience on defense), but they have a great deal of experience with being adaptable and scheme diverse, because their players change constantly. I think if they hire Toub, we'll have to trust he and Ballard to put together a good staff. I'm fine with that at this point, and much better with it than I am bringing in McDaniels.
