Official 2019 Coaching Staff Change Thread

[meatface]

There has been a lot of turnover with the Patriots coaching staff and even more rumored changes. Obviously Brian Flores took his talents to south beach and took several Patriots coaches with him, but I decided to make a thread so we can track the changes a bit easier.

I'm going to list them as Rumored until they are officially announced.

Departures
Brian Flores- Miami HC
Josh Boyer-Miami defensive pass game coordinator/cornerbacks coach
Chad O’Shea- Miami OC
Jerry Schuplinski- Miami QB
Brendan Daly-Kansas City DL
Atif Austin- NIU RB

Additions
Mike Lombardi Jr- Assistant QB coach
Carmen Bricillo-Coaching Assistant-Will work with Scarnecchia
Joe Judge- Special teams and wide receivers
Jerod Mayo-Inside Linebackers
Bob Fraser-Coaching assistant (Only contribution Greg Schiano made)
Brian Belichick-Coaching assistant
Cole Popovich- Assistant RB coach
Joe Kim- Director of Skill Development
Mike Pellegrino-CB

Rumored Additions
Troy Brown-Unspecified role
Deion Branch-Unspecified role
Kevin Faulk-Unspecified role

I wanted to include these but they aren't exactly departures. Flores added three guys to his staff with a Patriots connection
Patrick Graham was with the Patriots from 2009-2015 and he will be the new DC for Miami.
George Godsey was with the Pats from 2011-2013, leaving to join Bill O'Brien in Houston. He was with Matt Patricia last year as QB coach. He will be the Tight End coach for Miami.

Tiquan Underwood and his high top will be Quality control coach in Miami.

I hope the guys leaving are getting sick pay raises. I would think any suitors would be offering super-generous compensation just to get any bit of magic from the Patriots' approach. Plus, the defecting coaches are all going from the best team to likely losers (except the guy going to the Chiefs), I'd hope the money was irresistible.

Sounds like it could be something like TE coach Nick Caley getting promoted to WRs and unofficial assistant OL coach Cole Popovich getting promoted to TEs.

He had to have the worst case of helmet head....

That would be the second time that the Scar understudy would be moved to be TE coach. The same happened with Daboll after 2013. I think both moves seem pretty plausible. Nice job.

Offensive assistant Atif Austin is leaving the Patriots after one year to coach at Northern Illinois.

So bad it left a mark.

at this point...we might be looking at having Scar train his new replacement, hopefully that person gets to hang around Scar at least a couple years and soak up as much of the magic as possible

With Austin leaving, I assume that means all these vague low level coaches aren't going to just get promoted to fill the empty positions.

In what universe would going from a coaching assistant with the Super Bowl champion NE Patriots to being the RB coach at Eastern Illinois University be considered a career advancement? This was a polite firing by the Pats. Good luck in your future endeavours Coach Austin.

The Patriots are considering moving Joe Judge from Special teams coordinator to an offensive coach role. Allegeldy it would mean current assistant Cameron Achord would become ST coordinator.

I took it to mean in addition to his STs responsibilities.

This will help his prospects of becoming a head coach at some point
