Guys on my list,
Mike McCoy [OC Denver]
The guy is on everyone short list and he has shown he can create successful offenses for Kyle Orton, a reasonable offense with Tebow and has now worked with Peyton.
Bill O'Brien [Penn State HC]
If Emery really wants to go the Patriot way I would take O'Brien who coordinated the Pats offense and spent last season as the HC at Penn State where he did an amazing job.
Jay Gruden [OC Cincinnati]
He is regarded as an offensive genius and he has done incredible work with a very young Bengals offense. _________________

Having seen what Bruce Arians did while Pagano was out he has to be a candidate too. GREAT offensive mind IMO. Great work with Big Ben and Luck. _________________

I'm personally rooting for you guys to hire Todd Haley, especially with Emery as your GM. _________________

I like Arians and his job this season was masterful coaching.
But he is in his 60s which is a little old isn't it? _________________

What do Chiefs fans think of Haley?
Things go weird in KC. _________________

I'm guessing that Tom Clements is on the short list as well. _________________

They have loved him for a while.
But QB coach to HC is a huge jump. _________________

That's my only concern. There are coaches in their 60's but most have been coaches a while. _________________

With the number of coaching openings I bet this is done by the end of the week.
This is a crazy market and you do not want to lose out on a guy. _________________

God that list is pitiful, did we really fire Lovie Smith?
I will say this tho, that Ferentz would be a real interesting choice as he would no doubt fix the OL. He has worked w/ a cover 2 defense at Iowa for many years and is known as a CEO type HC. He hires coordinators he trusts and lets them do their job on game day. _________________

Pompei listed every guy with a pulse.
I think that we are going to see a successful offensive coordinator.
Tom Clements would be very interesting. _________________
