I see that as narrow minded reason to oust Romeo from the head coaching job. If those are your main reasons for wanting him to be replaced, that's pretty lame. And I know you're not a narrow minded person, so I'm surprised.

Why not?

Jack McKeon, manager of Florida Marlins - 80

John Gagliardi, head coach St. John's university - 84

Joe Paterno was coaching at 85 when he was fired.

Bobby Bowden was 80 when he retired.

Casey Stengal managed the NY Yankees at 76.

Hubie Brown was named NBA coach of the year at 72.

64 isn't that old. It may seem like it to a 30ish guy that is going on 15 like you, but it isn't.

I don't think Crennel will take us to the promised land but I also think we could do worse looking at whats out there.

Who is a totally hot HC candidate we could/should go with? I honestly don;t know at this point.

He wants Fisher who is Marty Part 10. Been there done that

I am not sold on Fisher.

I am just so scared of McDaniel getting the job any other name sounds like a decent option though I know that's not the case.

I'd say Phobia brings up a pretty obvious point on this topic.

So we've had a starting QB that no one else wants, we should certainly get a HC to match.

Don't want McD's in any capacity on this team except maybe jock collector.

Lots of winning coaches. Doesn't matter if it is the NFL or not. Coaching is coaching. And you are an agist. Not surprising for someone with the emotional age of a middle school student.

Say Romeo doesn't like Cassel as our guy in 2012. Say Romeo believes we need to draft a QB early. Would you be opposed to keeping him if that was his thought process? All the offense needs is a real QB. The defense is great. Fix the QB and we have a legit championship contender regardless of who the coach is.

Not really. We're talking the vast, vast majority of super bowl winning head coaches are under 60. Like, 24 of 27 if my math is right.

The odds are so low, the idea that we would just hand Romeo the job is shockingly stupid.

And those ancient head coaches also had superior quarterbacks. Where's Romeo's?

A) You don't know that after what he has done with our defense

B) The guy has experience and knows our system therefore not putting us back into a "rebuilding..just wait 5 years" mode for the 3rd time in a row

C) He has more SB rings than any other option out there. That is experience you just can't pass up

D) He was the last coach to take a shitty Cleveland team with a shitty front office to a winning season. Yes, that is saying something


If this team looks good the rest of the season you MUST give Romeo a serious look. Unlike Cleveland he has talented players to coach this time around. He has arguably 4-5 of some of the best defensive players in the league. He has one of the best RB's in the league and possibly one of the better TE's in the league with one of the better WR corps in the league.

Get this guy a QB worth a squirt of piss and an OC that knows WTF the deal is and I think Romeo's experience will pay off.

Thing is I need to know these things to make an informed decision.

Maybe CP should get to interview all candidates.

The historic odds are low, I see. But did you also take into account how many coaches were actually 60 or older during those seasons also? The point Phobia was making is that "Of course there aren't many SB winners over 60 years old, because the majority of coaches are 60 or younger."

Just paraphrasing.
