No more SOFT coaches.

[FiftyFive]

Funny that a college can pay their HC more than the pros, but there's not a cent for the players.

To be fair, it's the Spanos family. Their cheapness is an outlier, not an indication of colleges' spending power vs. the pros.

Cable would be okay depending on who his coordinators would be. Remember, Marty was 16-20 with Cam/Lindsey, 35-13 with Cam/Wade. Coordinators matter for rah rah coaches

Coordinators are a dime a dozen. Leaders are scarce.

Cable would be a typical Spanos hire. A failed head coach who isn't even good at his current job, but he'd probably be willing to take the job for dirt cheap.

Other hires I wouldn't be surprised by: Ken Whisenhunt, Chuck Pagano, Greg Schiano, Brad Childress, Wade Phillips, Joe Philbin, Raheem Morris, Mike Smith, Mike Mularkey, Jim Mora Jr., Jim Tomsula, Lovie Smith, Dennis Allen, Dick Jauron, Chan Gailey, Tony Sparano. Basically the least inspiring hires you could think of.

What's an inspiring hire they could make?

[Mister Hoarse]

From that group, I like Lovie Smith. He usually got to 10-6 with shit for QBs.

Urban Meyer, Sean McDermott, Mark Dantonio, Teryl Austin, Kris Richard, Harold Goodwin, Paul Guenther, Anthony Lynn, Sean McVay...

[boldarblood]

I am on the bandwagon for Sean McDermott. He actually started in the scouting department and is very stable. His defenses have been consistently top notch.


I know a lot of people would disagree, but I think that Josh McDaniels has earned a 2nd chance. He tried to hard to be Bellichick the first time, and was very young. I think he is ready for a 2nd chance. But he is not my first choice.

edit - I am also a fan of Teryl Austin

Time to reanimate this Lombardis

I don't care who they hire as long as it turns out good but all those guys are like McCoy. No experience as a head coach. We went with McCoy to go away from Norv (retread). I think this hire is going to go away from McCoy (retread).

I don't like the idea of hiring a college coach but the only guy I'd be interested in is David Shaw.

[homeless simpson]

we should fire Telesco and hire LT as GM. His first moves would be to trade Rivers to a winner, don't fire McCoy because it's the players whose at fault, then acquire Brees and hire Marty while not firing McCoy, also bring back Fred McRary cuz LT said "he's the best Fullback he's ever played with"

[Mister Hoarse]

And LT can start at LT, because.. he is LT.

[vinabolt]

Sometime I don't understand LT. The best fullback he's ever played with should be Lorenzo Neal, one of the most devastating and smartest lead blocker for RBs. LT wouldn't have broke those records without Neal.
