The #Falcons and #Bama OC Steve Sarkisian are finalizing a deal, sources said. So this is happening. They had talked earlier this winter

 

@albertbreer

Also, to review: Lane takes the FAU job, coaches in the national semi. Saban fires him after. Sark is OC for title game. Sark bolts for ATL.

Ha ha ha, Nick is going to lose his mind!!

i didn't think Sark and his alcohol issue was a match made in heaven working for Nicky. Wonder who he gets now. Chip?! Want to see them kill each other. He does have the QB for Chip's O. Edited by YoloinOhio

I would think that Locksley is the favorite. Chip may be considered? Any other offensive gurus that they will look at?

Matt LaFleur to Rams?

@adamschefter

With Steve Sarkisian going to Atlanta, Falcons QB coach Matt LaFleur is expected to become Rams offensive coordinator, per sources.

Mark Helfrich was a good coordinator/QB coach and recruiter for Oregon, not so good HC. He might get a look. I heard Chip doesn't want to recruit so prefers not to go back to college but that was several weeks ago.

 

Mario Cristobal also rumored to be unhappy at Oregon

RIP Falcons. You had a good run.

Maybe he knows how to call a few run plays with a 25 point lead? Interesting hire, for sure.

Oh of course. They never coached together though did they?

apparently they are good friends from when Quinn was in Seattle and Sark was HC at Univ of Washington. All 3 (with Carroll) would talk coaching together. Edited by YoloinOhio

I don't know if Chip is the kind of guy to be a follower. He is a great offensive mind. I don't know if his ego will let him be told what to do. If there is anyone that has a bigger personality it is Saban.

 

I like the Sarkesian hire. He likes playing up tempo which Ryan really likes. Might take time to adjust to each other like it did with Ryan and Shannahan.

Mark Helfrich is definitely a follower and it will be interesting to see if they look at him.
