It’s like the league just wants its own results.
As a football fan, I’m still stunned by the Bengals/Rams PI that gave the trophy to LAR cause of the $$$.
So foolish, the league wasted us a 10-15 year battle for a new Brady/Payton battle. Instead they wouldn’t give the bengals the ring to fund the future.
Regardless, we will see what happens. The league forgets the game is about momentum and confidence and bad calls can ruin both.
I believe we are going to see a shift in which less and less talented coordinators leave for HC positions. I believe Dan Quinn, among others, who realize they are the “HC” of the defense and don’t get meddled, it’s a pretty sweet gig that isn’t having to deal with PR and an Owner who want immediate results.
The younger ones who are going to be successful need to ‘Run’ their position for a while and develop connections for the staff level positions, which takes time. It’s a reason why we see Reid and Shannahan as so successful, they both had time to build a tree prior, learn the position to set up future coordinators prior to taking a HC position.
He should stay with HOU for a good 3-5 more years and then jump to a different OC (with more autonomy) or HC position.
IMHO.
