Why is Butch Davis such a zero? He took over a 3-13 team and went 7-9 and then 9-7, made the playoffs and lost by 3 @ Pittsburgh.
Then they promptly went 5-11 and 4-12. How much of that was Davis' coaching, and how much was his job as GM? Did being GM detract from his coaching? Is there something inherent in his coaching philosophy that reeks? I don't know, I'm just asking. We don't watch ANY of these other coaches as intently as we watch Chiefs coaches. |

None of that surprises me, he had a massive ego coming out of the job he'd done with the Canes. That job probably taught him numerous lessons about how to handle players and knocked his ego down several pegs.

I'll clarify, I'm not saying I want him to be coach or saying I'd be on board with that call. I'm just saying alot of people are having a serious overreaction to this.
If you're going to support guys like Gregg Williams, Butch Davis was a better head coach than he was in their first stints. |

Let's just face it, with Davis or Williams were not going to get Belicheck. That is one winner out of a Chitload of failed 2 time coaches. If a coach failed miserably his 1st go around chances are it won't get much better Wannstedt, Turner. We need a somewhat proven coach or totally fresh blood.

I've usually trusted Petro's opinion and he's sold on Davis.
I'm not saying that it's the best option but I don't know who is. I don't want to give up possible draft pics for Edwards and Williams doesn't want to come here and would fall into the same category as Davis anyway. |
