At least he gets you to the playoffs. There are 20 other teams out there that would love to just make it to the playoffs. I'm sorry but you don't just fire a guy that got you a 14-2 record. Would you rather not make the playoffs 3 years in a row or would you rather make the playoffs all 3 years? He's good coach, and he was shafted. No one will be able to convince me otherwise.
Yeah sure he was conservative, but at the end of the day.. HE GOT HIS TEAM TO THE PLAYOFFS EVERY YEAR!! Ask the Bills, Browns, Cards, Dolphins, (and until this year, our Chiefs), Jags, vikings, redskins, bucs, if they would rather go the playoffs every year as opposed to going under 500 every year.
Yeah thats right, all those teams would love to have what he accomplished. As for why he was never re-hired, I have no clue. I really thought he would have been rehired quickly. All I can think is that he got upset about being fired after going 14-2 and decided he was done with coaching. All I know is that many underachieving teams would have loved to have him.
He was a good coach.
