I've had no problem with their process. There's only so much they can control.  Sure, it's on them. I mean, a bunch of people here seem to think the HC job for the Commies is, like, a really good opportunity, one that anyone should be lucky to have.  How the Commies weren't able to keep him on the hook until they arrived to meet with him face to face is their fault.  2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Destino Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 Team has to find an offensive minded head coach. I do not want to watch a defensive coordinator ruin a rookie QB because he wants to win games 17-14 and thinks risking turnovers is a bad idea. No no no. In this era of football I wouldn’t even consider a defensive guy for head coach unless you’ve got a legendary QB. 4 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, if nobody else wants to hire him next season there's always Carolina, I'm sure they'll be in the HC market before the end of next year lol 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An agressive defensive HC will still be agressive on offense. Its in their nature. Just needs an OC to call the right plays at the right time. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And there have been many direct quotes from sources around the league saying how attractive this position is. You're doing the opposite of the people (myself included) rage posting. This is Snyder-level Same-Old-Skins wound licking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of the best QBs in the league now and some of the best QBs ever played for defensive coaches for the vast majority of if not their entire career. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
