Both the older guys who are still around, Belichick, Harbaugh, Reid, Tomlin if you want to count him, are all winners at the highest level. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redskinss Posted January 10 Share Posted January 10 (edited) Then there's Sean payton, Mike mcarthy, I could go on. Lol. there's definitely a changing of the guard going on right now but there's still plenty of successful coaches in the nfl that would Qualify as dinosaurs before Tomlin would.

I get what your saying, I just think we're teasing a little based off the use of the word dinosaur but there's no doubt that after a while a coach usually does need a change of scenery. Look at the complete revitalization of Andy Reid career after leaving Philly. I'm sure Tomlin and the steelers would benefit from a change. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea I wouldn't say game has passed by Reid or Harbaugh, but their QBs are playing lights out same time Tomlin and BB are struggling to find one. Carroll knew it was time, that's who I thought of immediately with your post. Sometimes it's good to get out before folks start calling you the villian. 20 minutes ago, Voice_of_Reason said: Both the older guys who are still around, Belichick, Harbaugh, Reid, Tomlin if you want to count him, are all winners at the highest level. No doubt big reason still around. Saw McCarthy name and Sean Payton. That's 6, what about the other 26? Is Kyle OG status yet? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because, you said this: Quote Anybody else feel there's a changing of the guard going on with football in general? I think it's needed to be more relatable to the younger players.

I can't imagine any of the top HC candidates would want the previous guy around in any capacity. Seems like a boneheaded move. They're paying Carroll either way.
