I see your point but I don't think the qb coach is near as demanding as HC, the HC has to oversee everything on the team, the qb coach, just 1 thing....
I don't think PM will be a success at media because he is too dorky and has trouble putting words together in short term or on the fly...
Granted it seems like not many high caliber players go for the coaching position, but Mike Singletary made it to HC at least and I'm sure there are several position coaches that were good players too, I just am not up to speed on all of them, but Ed Reed was hired for a coaching position by the Jets, we'll have to see how that works out yet....
I think PM would be a good OC but as you said, does he want to dedicate himself to it, is the million dollar question....
Well some of the guys who are set at that, who only want to be a positional coach and nothing more, maybe. And it depends, lots of teams use the QB coach as the playcaller, so he's got to be there for all the offensive playbook stuff. Lots use theirs right with the OC as his backup in case something happens. Those who want to be an OC, or head coach, guess what they need to be doing in their free time?
Mike Singletary is the odd one, some were before him, but then again they weren't making multimillions back in the day... So for them, a $200k a year positional coach job is worth it. Heck that's what Singletary made most of his years...
