Let's just start here.

Sky bang reverse pass.

That was the trick play that they ran with Juwan Jennings throwing the touchdown pass to Christian McCaffrey, and that was a suggestion from Clay Kubiak.

So he is the offensive coordinator.

Obviously, Kyle Shanahan calls all the plays, but he's very much a part of game planning and also makes suggestions like that.

I think he's similar in some ways to Sheil House where he –

like is going to he's a young offensive mind but he also is not calling the place he doesn't have the experience of calling the place at this level but he's just maybe like two years advanced shield houses is 35 Clay Kubiak is 37 um so I think those are the plus and minuses Joe great Bob I would give him a B

Yeah, I think my guy Daniel Popper hit the nail on the head with a lot of those things.

Um, he's worked with both Harbaugh's in the past.

He was the, he worked with the secondary with John Harbaugh and the Ravens.

Then he won a national championship as the defensive coordinator for the university of Michigan.

I think that we, you know, last year in his first year in the NFL, as a defensive coordinator,

the chargers had the number one scoring defense this year.

I think we all remember that he made Aaron Rogers look really old and really bad because of his really good defense.

I think the challenge is going to be a lot of people believe that he could end up with Baltimore.

So what is Baltimore going to decide and will his ties to Baltimore ultimately end up leading Jesse mentor there.

But I think that he's kind of right in the middle, kind of similar in a lot of ways to Shula where he's,

He's 42 years old.

He's still in that young category.

He's defensive-minded, which would seem to fit the franchise.
