Dude drafted Tebow in the first round.
What has he done without Brady? and without BB?
He did pretty good as the OC of the Rams...

You don't think he had a hand in Mac Jones' development?  The understanding I routinely hear about the coaching structure in New England is that Bill runs the organization as a whole and the defense (the DC is just running Bill's defense, but Bill is heavily involved).  Aqib Talib, who played for Belichick, said on the Manning MNF broadcast when he was on earlier this year that make no mistake about it, Belichick is the DC in NE.  My understanding is that Josh runs the offense and Bill has no where near the involvement as he does in the defense.

I hated McDaniels in Denver.  I thought he was a bit young and immature for a head coach.  That was a long time ago now though.  He's at the top of my list because he's had prior head coaching experience, he's been in the Pats system a long time and surely must've adopted much of "the Patriot way" for when he gets his next shot and finally because I believe he would be an excellent offensive mind for Trevor to develop under.

I would not be upset with an O'brien hire.  I think he's a very good coach.  They were talking about him last week on 1010xl and suggesting that much like Coughlin's first stint with the Jaguars, Coughlin the GM got Coughlin the HC fired here and the same could be said about O'brien in Houston and I agree with that statement whole heartedly.  He wouldn't wear that hat here.
