Lots of talk about ol’ Belichick potentially landing here. I highly doubt that happens for a list of reasons.
While the talk of him landing here is getting shot down, pretty resoundingly, I’m noticing a lack of attention to EB being the next head coach.
It feels like a natural promotion, I’m just wondering what the thoughts are?
The truth:
he’s an energetic and loud black man, while the majority of owners are old white men who think a loud black man = angry black man. So the processes around becoming a HC are already not in his favor.
HC is a different skill set than coordinator. Most coordinators who get promoted to HC fail.
