Quote:Both Chucky and Arians were available at the time the Jags hired Bradley. Jeff Fisher was available when Mularkey was hired. There were other less likely candidates such as Cowher and Dennis Greene. Maybe you don't like any of these guys, but my question stands. It's not as if the Jags would have had to dig up Vince Lombardi to find a proven NFL head coach.

 

I'm not saying that Bradley is Hall of Fame bound. Who knows? Usually the better your players the better your coaching. And if former coaches are always hired, due to fear of criticism of hiring an unknown, all NFL coaches would be 75 years old.

 

Arians is the only one you mentioned that seems a possible great hire. I don't think there is a way in the world Chucky or Cower were coming to Jacksonville. Jeff Fisher? Really? And Dennis Greene? Come on.

 

My point is that you have to take a chance and hire who you feel is right. Don't just go with the last "name" guy who got fired and is now doing television. And as the team gets better (we all hope) the perception of Bradley will improve. And he may improve as well.
