I was all for DeCosta or Pioli. I was not on the Dominik bandwagon, and didn't get on the Polian train once I read more about him.
I don't know how much we can tell about DeCosta, he's kind of in the same place that Pioli was in that you know his organization is successful and he is a key cog, but how would he do on his own in a totally new organization? How much of that is Ozzie Newsome?
Hindsight being what it is, I guess coachingwise you hire Ryan (that coaching class of 2009 is like the draft of 2009). I'm not a great fan of guys that like to hear themselves talking, but on the flip side he knows defense and players want to play for him, which would help us with free agents. That said, it would have been back to Martyball with him in charge, so while he may have gotten us back in the playoffs, I'm not sure how many people would be satisfied going back to a team that grinds out defensively and has their QB on the leash...
