interesting, there is likely an updated analysis of offensive coordinators,

looks like atlast when this was written, many head coaches were also calling the plays, some very successful teams.

not sure which OC available now, but I guess they do need to be familiar with offense similar to what Texans run.

And it would be nice to see some due diligence in choosing the new OC if needed.

and even older list of I suppose potential candidates

I would think the odds are very low (5%) of Denver hiring Rick Dennsion. The Broncos have attempted to move on from the ole' Shanahan era, and Dennison doesn't have much star power to recover from Denver's worst record ever.

In the unlikely event that Dennsion leaves my money would be on QB coach Greg Knapp to become OC. Kubiak has made that move before (Lil Shan) and Knapp has extensive OC experience.

I wouldn't mind Knapp getting the gig if Dennison leaves. Although maybe Im just saying that out of pity because i still remember him as the guy who got a national TV sideline bashing from TO... and he just sat there and took it.

It looks like the Broncos have five HC candidates:

Dennison
John Fox
Perry Fewell (Giants' DC)
Dirk Koetter (Jaguars' OC)
Eric Studesville (interim HC)

Dennison's advantage is his longtime connection to Elway and the Broncos but he might be the least experienced in terms of coordinator/HC experience other than Studesville.

IMO, Fox is the smart pick. The Broncos need a stable, steady defensive guy after the last disaster.

Fewell seems to be this year's Rooney Rule patsy.

Broncos decided to go with Fox. Looks like Kubiak's best friend will stay.

And here's what our OC had to say about Denver -

"I've known the Broncos forever. If it is (an advantage), that's great, I'll use that to the best of my abilities. I'm orange and blue all the way through. I just work in Houston now."—Texans offensive coordinator Rick Dennison in an interview with the Denver Post on Tuesday.

Gotta love that. I don't know what's worse, the comment or the fact that he's too stupid to realize things you say in Denver are going to get back to Houston. What year does he think it is?
