I'm very excited about James Bettcher  
Jay on the Island : 2/15/2018 2:23 pm : link
He is going to be a godsend for Olivier Vernon.

Based on the past performance of the OLB's in his scheme.

Could be based on him becoming a stand-up, pass rushing OLB now as opposed to a hand-in-ground 4-3 DE. Could really boost his pass rushing numbers, if he can be anything like Chandler Jones.

Because Bettcher is a versatile defensive coordinator who schemes around players who can play multiple roles, which Olivier Vernon known for.
Anyone know

how successful Hal Hunter (Oline coach) was with the Chargers or Colts?

Objectively speaking, he has less of a noteworthy resume than Solari or Pat Flaherty did.

But, having accomplished coaches has not seemed to matter much for the OL.
Bettcher is more creative than Spagnuolo

It could be due to his background as a LB coach but he moves players around looking for mismatches. Multiple schemes are more beneficial as they are more likely to create confusion for offenses. It's not just the production of guys like Chandler Jones but lesser known guys like Markus Golden, Alex Okafor, Olsen Pierre playing well.
While I understand

that Shurmur is a QB guru and Shula has coached QBs before, I don't think it would hurt to bring in a dedicated QB coach. Ken Dorsey would make sense since Shula and Gettleman know him. There will most likely be two very green QBs who will need all the coaching help they can get.

OV has been playing a long time now, we know what we'll get. Outstanding play mixed with complete disappearance for weeks at a time.
