COACHING CHANGES

-

1 KYLE SHANAHAN

(49ers): The offensive guru, who guided Atlanta’s Matt Ryan to an MVP year last season, attempts to work his magic with journeyman Brian Hoyer, more bridge quarterbac­k than Golden Gate Bridge. If Ryan and the Falcons suffer a Super Bowl hangover, Shanahan will be cited as a chief reason why.

2 SEAN McVAY (Rams): At 31, the youngest head coach in the NFL will be asked to be the kind of quarter backwhis perer for Jared Goff that he was for Redskins quarterbac­k Kirk Cousins — who may hit the $30 million jackpot whenever he secures his long-term contract (49ers, perhaps)?

3 VANCE JOSEPH (Broncos): After one season as defensive coordinato­r, he comes over from the Dolphins with a reputation as an even-keeled leader of men and disciple of Gary Kubiak, Marvin Lewis and Adam Gase — who needs to solve the Trevor SiemianPax­ton Lynch QB conundrum for a franchise with win-now expectatio­ns. Offensive coordinato­r Mike McCoy should help.

4 ANTHONY LYNN

(Chargers): Rex Ryan’s longtime aide is a master at the running game and is taking a pair of former head coaches, Gus Bradley (DC) and Ken Whisenhunt (OC), with him to Los Angeles.

5 SEAN McDERMOTT (Bills): Doug Marrone bolted after two years, Ryan was booted after two years, and now the former Panthers defensive coordinato­r tries to end a 17-year playoff drought.

6DOUG MARRONE (Jaguars): Nearly the Jets’ coach, one of the finalists for the Giants’ job, he lands in a spot where he can show these guys The Bronx and use Executive VP of football operations Tom Coughlin as a resource.
