Quote:You're right about coaches ultimately being judged by wins. Just like QBs are but there are many things that go into winning besides coaching. For example, most people on here would agree that Belichick and Pete Carroll are good coaches but if you replaced their current rosters with the tack's roster or our roster, they'd struggle to win games. Doesn't mean they became bad coaches suddenly. I think that Bradley might be something like that. He just doesn't have the raw materials to prove it yet.


I just hope Shad and Caldwell stay patient. Would hate to see him let go prematurely and then go on to win the Superbowl like TC did.

But here's the question... What makes you think Bradley is like those guys? Just based off of a gut feeling? Because it certainly can not be the play on the field.

 

I do think a coach like Belicheck or Harbaugh would have this team at 4-6. Bengals, Titans and Steelers were all very winnable games and the difference in close games is coaching.

 

Look at the Lions. For years they would blow close games because Schwartz was an indiot. Now you bring in Caldwell and they are 7-3. Obviously they have a ton of talent but they always had talent to be "close" but they needed a better coach to get over that hump.
