Warren Sharp is finding it hard to believe that there are only three offensive coordinators in the NFL that have been with their team for more than one year. Louis Riddick is impressed with rookie safety Juan Thornhill and says that he deserved to be picked in the first round of the 2019 NFL Draft. Also, Pro Football Focus is giving us an insight into NFC West and highest team pressure rate last season.
Sharp on offensive coordinators
NFL analyst Warren Sharp thinks it’s crazy that nearly half the NFL will have offensive coordinators in their first year as only the New Orleans Saints (Pete Carmichael), New England Patriots (Josh McDaniels) and Los Angeles Chargers (Ken Whisenhunt) have OC’s that have been with their teams for 3 or more years.
Crazy to think there are just 3 Offensive Coordinators that have been w their team more than one year:
10 yrs: Pete Carmichael (NO)
7 yrs: Josh McDaniels (NE)
3 yrs: Ken Whisenhunt (LAC)Nearly half the NFL (15 tms) will have coaches in their 1st year calling plays w that team.

Riddick on Thornhill
The Kansas City Chiefs selected former Virginia Cavaliers’ safety Juan Thornhill with the No. 63 pick overall in the 2019 NFL Draft and Louis Riddick thinks that he should have been easily selected in the first round and is saying that Thornhill will be an opening day starter.
Safety Juan Thornhill going to be that guy that “how did he get out of the 1st round” is what is quickly debated once the games start…#chiefs #nfl #openingdaystarter
