Now, our defensive coaches look alot better than the staff from last year. This is turning out to be an excellent offseason. I hope our offensive replacements are just as good as the defensive replacements. If we can land a quality OL coach, the caliber of Houck or Gibbs. Sweeet.

Did Muir, or anyone, on the O-staff get fired?

Muir did in a dream I had

I like this, now can we star the fires on the offensive side?

Very, very nice. I didn't think they'd be able to land Coyer. I was just in the midst of researching McCarney. Coyer is the right sort of guy to get it done here.

Kudos to the FO.

Not yet. Hopefully, they are looking for replacements before they hand out pink slips. I think they will be meeting with offensive coaching prospects at the Senior Bowl. Muir and Mann need to go...

Wow, this is a coup.  Denver has been pretty great.

Coyer joked that he doesn't know what it means to be an assistant head coach, but he will work closely with longtime friend, Monte Kiffin, Tampa Bay's defensive coordinator. Coyer expects to help with game planning and likely coach the defensive line.

"It's a great defense," Coyer said. "And I am honored to be able to help there."

Coyer turned down a chance to join the New York Jets in a similar role.

LOL... thats what i was eluding to... haha Assistant head coach...

Outstanding signing. Could it mean that Rice stays, now that we have a fiery DL coach again? This is going to be an exciting year for DL fans, because we're obviously going to give Coyer some new toys to play with, whether through FA or the draft. Hopefully, both.

Very nice pick up.. This guy has all the tools to turn the Defensiveline around again.   You know if we can get a healthy Rice and a top FA prospect we might just get back to the good old days when we could get pressure from the front four alone..

Can anyone find out if any of Denver's front four are FA's this year..??

[Buc Wylde]

Out of the blue, but what are the chances he brings Ian Gold with him ?
Not sure of his contract status
