The Buffalo Bills are expected to hire Vikings offensive line coach Phil Rauscher, per source. Rauscher was one of several Minnesota coaches that were given permission to explore other coaching opportunities, along with Klint Kubiak, Andrew Janocko & Ryan Ficken.

Patterson is a keeper and Fricken did a good job but who cares about any others.

Oh wait, I really like McCardell as WR coach

Ficken hurts. After that, as long as they keep McCaedell and Dre, I'm good.

I am hoping we keep McCardell and Patterson, as well as Polamalu who was the guy who seemed to really sway the Vikes into drafting Mattison and Kene, so he seems to know RB talent.

Has anyone any clue as to whom O’Connell might hire, all I’ve heard is crickets…

By design, most likely…

We can't even announce officially that he's our head coach.  I doubt he can get sidetracked thinking about coordinators with the Super Bowl coming up.

So Phil Rauscher isn't headed to the Bills after all. He could end up sticking around in Minnesota, since he and Kevin O'Connell are familiar with each other from their time in Washington.

Probably should stay focused until at least halftime.

Source: the Jaguars have hired former Vikings OL coach Phil Rauscher as their OL coach and run game coordinator. The team has also officially added Andrew Breiner as an offensive assistant.

Doug Pederson’s staff starting to take shape.

Once O'Connell is officially hired and introduced early next week, his staff will likely start to come together quickly.
The news that Rauscher is headed to the Jaguars begs the question of who will replace him as the Vikings' offensive line coach. Considering the Vikings' perennial struggles up front, the presence of some talented young players on the O-line, and how important winning in the trenches will be to what O'Connell wants to achieve on offense, it's a critical role.
One name that's out there and worth keeping in mind is Mike Munchak. If the Vikings are going to hire Modkins from the Broncos (and possibly Donatell, too), why not bring the former Denver O-line coach along as well? Munchak spent the past three seasons with the Broncos on Vic Fangio's staff, working closely with Modkins on the offensive side of the ball.

Did Pederson watch our OL at any time last season?
