First of all, I am not in favor of firing Rex.
I think he needs more time to find the right QB and add 2-3 more pieces on offense and defense.
That being said it looks like this is happening so this is what I think would make the move a success...
1. Promote Anthony Lynn to HC. I normally hate the idea of just promoting in-house but I think this guy is HC material. He is a solid character guy and looks like he is a straight arrow with a plan. He would also be key towards maintaining continuity despite a HC change. His offensive principles would remain and the players respect him and like his scheme.
2. Promote Aaron Kromer to OC. Our Run game has been great with this guy coaching the line. He knows run game and he's done a great job with Glenn, Incognito, Wood, Groy (Wood has competition) and Miller. He will keep our offensive scheme intact.
3. Hire Gus Bradley to coach the defense. Bradley has built a nice defense in Jacksonville and I think his style of defense would be a good fit with our personnel. Even guys like Adolphus Washington (who can move to DT) and Lawson would be great fits in it. Add KW, Marcell and Hughes and he already has the makings of a top DL.
