I remember the story earlier in the season (may have been last yr) about Shanny giving him a job a while back to help scout and slowly he's been earning Shanny's trust, and in turn Shanny giving him more responsibility. Basically Shanny giving him a bone since he F'd his life up and football is all he's got.

Kocurek def messed up with his drug abuse, but damn! He's putting in 200% to get a coaching job back. Kudos to him for fighting his demons

You're confusing Chris Foerster with Kris Kocurek.

Oh this was an old post lol nvm my bad. I woke up way too early today like a little kid on Christmas.

Our pass rush will be the story of the game today. This is why we invested so much—stoping the "unstoppable" QB, getting pressure with 4.
Coach Kocurek is doing a wonderful job with the DLine. Hopefully, he can mold these young d-linemen into sustained success over the course of the next 5 years or so. A great defensive line wreaks havoc as seen here - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oo1mYUk2BY0 (poor Dan Marino didnt know what hit him). That's the great Bryant Young young folks, he was something special.

"Do you know what the last five weeks have been like for us? Coach Kocurek is stuck in his house, and he's spending every day with his wife and his newborn," Shanahan said. "So all he's doing right now is changing diapers or watching Kinlaw.

"[Kocurek] sends us pictures of him every day, and I have to keep asking, 'Are you watching anyone else?' He's like, 'No, this is the guy.' So for it to get there, I know he's as excited as anyone."
This is the kind of advocacy that we were missing with Zigonina, I hope Bullocks and Oden as passionate a coach for his defensive back position guys as Kocurek is for his DLine guys. Unfortunately I haven's seen much evidence of it during their coaching careers. Hope that changes this year. We'll need that DB backfield to step up - since no draft capital was directed at it this year.

If there is someone that Shanahan can't lose is this guy right here. If they have to increase his pay in order to keep him then do it in a heartbeat.

This the deepest and most productive group. No matter who they plug in they're productive. Even the 3rd and 4th stringers make plays and shine on occasions.

Why you throwing shade at Bobby Turner?

Aren't they the same person?

Or are they just twins?
