I think it's a matter of him owning the entire offense in TEN vs. being sort of 'Assistant OC' under McVay. On paper a lateral move but in responsibility it's a promotion.
Hate to see him go though.
Yeah, not a good look seeing Goff lose his QB coach and OC after ONE year in which Goff went from bust to pro bowl
Obviously McVay thinks we don't need him or he would never have let him go.....hope he is right.
I thought a coach
had to release a staff member if they had a job opportunity elsewhere and wanted to go, no matter how much the HC may have needed him and wanted to retain him. So even if McVay felt he really needed LeFleur, he couldn't keep him if LeFleur had a job opportunity and wanted to go to a different team. Is that not correct?
Nevermind. I found the answer.
You can't hire a coach away from another team if it's a lateral move. You can only hire a contracted coach away if he'll receive a promotion.
Lateral moves are only permitted if both teams agree.
So, in LeFleur's case, McVay didn't have to let him go.
That is what my title says... it just does not make any sense.
Obviously McVay thinks we will be fine without him or he would have blocked that move.
Oh well, as long as we are still running the same offense it does not really matter much I guess.
Although I think Lafluer should have stayed one more year to learn under McVay and then maybe have a better shot at a HC job the next year.
