Johnson is the run game coordinator in Philly. So it’s the same issue but the inverse of what you are describing. We have Staley here for the run game coordinating… we need someone with a pass design background now. 
 

Of the three main rumored options… 2 out of the 3 are passing centric coaches. I don’t think Johnson is coming here with Staley in place.

Johnson is the QB coach, a former QB himself and was OC at Florida for the 2020 season. Dunno where you got the run game thing from

Okay, so I read the full article. Person doesn't talk about any options other than Brian Johnson and Jim Bob Cooter.

Pretty sure those are not the only two options.

 

given that the Rooney Rule applies to coordinator hires these days, they can't be the only two by rule.

Don't feel too good about this Cooter guy. I'd much rather go with the younger talent in Philly

Cooter’s offenses were characterized by a lot of passing and not much in the way of a run game. The Lions ranked ninth, 11th and sixth in passing offense in Cooter’s first three seasons but were 32nd, 30th and 32nd in rushing over the same span. Cooter’s game plans resulted in 1,000-yard receiving seasons for Golden Tate and Marvin Jones, but Lions quarterback Matthew Stafford took a beating. Stafford was sacked an average of 42 times while Cooter was the Lions’ offensive coordinator, including a career-high 47 in 2017.

Idk, I think that characterization of his offence is unfair.. It was done out of necessity rather than philosophically. Personnel matters, and Detroit's o-line could not get push. I wouldn't dismiss him as a candidate due to their struggles running the ball.

    • We could easily pick apart yesterday’s game: dropped passes, blown coverages, bad tackling and red zone issues to name a few. But it was clear that this wasn’t the same team from earlier in the season. They fought back and hung with the champs until the end. That’s what I was excited to see and it gives me hope that we’re on the right track.
    • I think BY played well today and exceeded expectations. I will temper future expectations as he has to string together many games of consistent quality. One game doesn’t convince me that he is a franchise QB or even a guy you want to stick with for another season. One game doesn’t erase all the negative play and limitations from the past couple of years. I hope he balls out and continues to get better but for me the verdict is still out   That said, I think he gave the team and fans hope yesterday which is a lot more than what we had when we woke up Sunday morning. 
    • He was vastly improved today and we need to see more of Bryce the rest of the season to continue evaluate him in order to decide what the heck to do with him at the end of the season. He must play at least like this and improve more from here the rest of the season in order for me to keep him. No more 123 yard passing games and want to see at least this output weekly from him. If this is Bruce improving slowly over time then Canales is even better with developing QB's than I thought he was but still too early to tell and we need to see him the rest of the way as he has at very least earned back the starting gig moving forward.
