Sources: Mike Munchak unlikely to return as Broncos OL coach. He has opportunities elsewhere and there's slight opportunity he returns back with Broncos. But new head coach Nathaniel Hackett looking at other OL coaches with more experience in his system. #9sports

Must.

Munchak will probably wait to follow where Fangio goes.  They are essentially from the same small town in Pennsylvania near me.  But there is always the chance they don't wait for each other.

Munchak was a part of Vic Fangio’s coaching staff he brought in with him in DEN. Vikings hire Harbaugh, Harbaugh brings in Fangio as DC, Munchak follows Fangio to MN to continue working with him. All of the pieces fall together so perfectly.

 Now that I verbalized the above, I was still thinking Fangio was HC material and not just a DC.  It would be very difficult for them to line up with each other if both are just coordinators.

Munchak is considered an elite OL coach. Minnesota, don't mess this opportunity slide by.

I have dreamt of a real O line coach for a long time... He would definitely have some young premium draft capital to work with.

Just hire Munchak now and tell the new HC, "Look, we brought you a housewarming present".  :p

If Harbaugh is eventually hired as the #Vikings next head coach, it'll be very interesting to see what their run game looks like next year.

Harbaugh's adaptable but traditionally gap-scheme, while guys like O'Neill, Cleveland, Bradbury and Cook probably fit better in wide zone.

Right, but it's an question of what that adaptation looks like. We already mixed in plenty of power (Cleveland is great as a puller!) & duo last year, and Harbaugh's run wide zone plenty too. Question is what the right mix is and how that'll shape the rest of the roster/playbook

Oh stop.  I'm already past the four hour limit and seeking medical advice.
