Plenty of head coaches aren't selected because they are necessarily "worthy". Philbin wasn't "worthy". He didn't even call plays. However, he seems like a quality head coach in the making. |

There is no blueprint. Every time we change HC's or GM's it's like we build 1/3 of a house and when it doesn't look right we hire a completely different crew and switch from a ranch style to colonial. We jump on whatever bandwagon has won last. Winning franchises don't do that. Pitt knows what they want to be and they hire HC's and sign/draft players to fit that. The ****ing owner needs a vision of what HE wants and then needs to hire the best people to make that vision work...

Chin. Provides toughness, stability, has developed a franchise QB, and is a guy players want to play for. Billick could never develop an offense in BMore and hasn't shown the ability to develop a franchise QB. Gruden is notorious for telling guys one thing and doing another, and for collecting old vets and also has never developed a young franchise QB. I could live with Gruden but I doubt he would succeed as much as Chin...

Pick a GM first and then worry about the coach. Beware of retread hired guns.

He has nothing, NOTHING to do with developing Ben.
Nothing.

Chud has about half that experience and his only stops as OC's have been average at best. I just don't see anything about his resume that screams "Head Coach". He'd be better of going back to Miami or some other high level college program, thus proving he's worthy of a gig. |

Why would anyone advocate hiring a guy that hasn't coached in five years or more?

Hire a good GM. Hire a head coach under that GM that's not going to be so powerful that he wants supreme control over personnel decisions. I think young guys have a hell of a lot more fire and there are a lot of real good ones who can run a quality team if you give them the chance. For example, a Jay Gruden. Or Mike Miller of Arizona (has a very nice resume). Hell, a few guys on the 49ers staff -- love that team, because they are so technically proficient. Fangio or what about John Morton (kind of like this guy. Seems like a real fiery guy)? I just don't want to get stuck on stale candidates that get discussed every year. Go for an up and comer. |

Here you go. Here's a guy with some fire and he's coaching one hell of a defense in Seattle right now. Watch Gus Bradley's tirade in the middle.

Football is currently in an offense first style. This replaced the defense first style of the early 2000's. Therefore, we need an offense first coach.
