I would like to say that I haven't been very impressed with our coaching staff in general. Saban came here and gave the big bucks to Linehan, Houck, Smith, etc. but I haven't seen superior coaching out there. I have yet to see great gameplans or superior scheming. I know that we are a bit undermanned but I have seen few examples where our players are overachieving on a consistent basis due to coaching. To be honest, I've seen a lot of what I saw last year. With that said, which of these coaches do you think is not here next year?

My pick:

Keith Armstrong-easy choice. Wanny holdover, unspectacular play out of our special teams. He'll take the hit IMO.
 
I think Richard Smith was a stopgap solution and that Nick will attempt to bring in a real impact DC in the offseason. If I'm right about that, I think Smith took the job knowing this and might even have a different role with the team next year.
 
The more I think about what I said, I could possibly see Smith taking over for Armstrong on special teams once a new DC is hired...
 
We have a DC in training already, Will Muschamp. We only brought in Smith to fall back on, since Muschamp had no previous NFL experience if I remember correctly. I think he already calls most of the plays, while Smith just sits in the booth and analyzes defensive formations and occasionally calls a play.
 
Its got to be Linehan, this offense is almost as pathetic as Wanny's! He was brought in to kick start the offense and we are as bad as ever!
 
Um they all kind of have an equal chance i suppose. I think linehans pretty much a definant though. because we don't want him, and so many other teams do.
 
interesting- votes for the DC. i gotta agree. it seems like the fins call almost the exact wrong defense at the worst times.

one comical play was a corner who blitzed. the browns ran a wr screen right in the area the blitzer voided. its got to be predictablility. this kinda stuff seems to happen a lot.
 
I think we will have a new Def Coordinator. Smith IMO will still be with the team, but not as a Def Cord. Linehan I'm not sure, he may came back using the excuse, I had no QB, so my system didn't work well.

The DC is a puppet of saban. Don't blame the coach, blame the players. We need more players.
