Patrick O'Hara (born September 27, 1968) is an American football coach and former quarterback who most recently served as the pass game analyst for the Tennessee Titans of the National Football League (NFL). He previously served as the head coach of the New Orleans VooDoo, Orlando Predators and Tri-Cities Fever. O'Hara also served as an assistant coach for the Houston Texans and Tampa Bay Storm.
O'Hara played college football as a quarterback for the USC Trojans and was selected by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in the 10th round (260th overall) of the 1991 NFL draft.
In his 16-year playing career, O'Hara has also played for the Ohio Glory, San Diego Chargers, Washington Redskins, Orlando Predators, Toronto Phantoms and Tampa Bay Storm, and played backup quarterback Tyler Cherubini in Oliver Stone's 1999 film Any Given Sunday. Over the span of his AFL career, he played in five ArenaBowls, winning three. In 2005, he was named offensive coordinator of the Storm, in the unique position as a player-coach. Then, in 2007, after retiring as a player, he resumed the duties of offensive coordinator. After the 2008 season, on July 25, 2008, he agreed to a three-year deal, with an option for a fourth, with the Los Angeles Avengers to become the fourth head coach in the franchises history.[1] However, the Avengers folded when the AFL went on hiatus.
