With maaaaaybe the exception of Gus Bradley or Marc Trestman (only because milkman likes him). But neither of them are the kind of ground-shaking move that Clark needed to bring fans back. His first goal was to hire a head coach IMMEDIATELY before any of the other teams could get their hands on the top guys. It might look strange if he hired Trestman less than 72 hours after announcing he would fix this mess created by the Patriots.

I was intrigued by Trestman.
Years as a success as a cordinator, followed by a highly succesful stint as HC in the CFL.
I was looking for fresh, and the other candidates just didn't excite me.
