The Rams’ brass has hit the road, to reportedly meet with a few candidates from teams with a playoff bye this weekend. One such individual is Falcons offensive coordinator Kyle Shanahan. Here are three nuggets to know about one of the hottest names of the coaching cycle.
1) Presided over 2016’s No. 1 scoring offense
In his second year with the Falcons, Shanahan has developed the offense into a a franchise record-breaking unit. Atlanta finished No. 1 at 33.8 points per game, 4.5 points better than No. 2 New Orleans. The Falcons broke their single-season franchise scoring record in their Week 14 victory over the Rams.
Over the course of 2016, Shanahan displayed how well he could utilize the talents available on the Falcons' squad, with 13 players recording a touchdown reception.
In his ninth NFL season, quarterback Matt Ryan played the best football of his career, throwing for 4,944 yards with 38 touchdowns and just seven interceptions to become a serious MVP candidate. He led the league at 9.3 yards per attempt and a passer rating of 117.1 while completing 69.9 percent of his passes.
2) At age of 37, has extensive experience
While Shanahan is young to be a potential head coach, he has plenty of NFL experience. He became an offensive coordinator in 2008 with the Texans, and in 2009 coached quarterback Matt Schuab to a Pro Bowl season.
Shanahan moved on to Washington to be the offensive coordinator under his father, Mike, in 2010. In 2012, he helped construct an offense around Robert Griffin III that led to the quarterback winning the AP Offensive Rookie of the Year award.
Spending the 2014 season with the Browns, Shanahan’s offensive system helped quarterback Brian Hoyer finish with a league-leading 13.7 yards per completion, and running backs Terrence West and Isaiah Crowell end the year with a combined 1,280 yards rushing and 12 rushing touchdowns.
Shanahan’s ability to fit his system for different players at four different stops around the league is one of his most impressive qualities.
