Quote:My list:

 

Coughlin- Two time superbowl winner who has rebuilt teams in the past, need I say more?

Mike Munchack--He could fix our offensive from the line out. 

Tom Cable- He's the Seattle O-line coach now, but remember he got the talentless raiders to 8-8 before they fired him. He would bring a tough mindset here I think. 

 

Throwing a wildcard in here: Jim Bob Cooter. Probably too soon to be a head coach but you gotta love what he has done with Detroit's offense this year. He's had a hand in a bunch of explosive offenses over the last 4-5 years. 

 

 Jim Bob Cooter has indeed done a great job with the Lions Offense in general and with Matthew Stafford.    JBC more likely than not get an NFL HC interview in 2017.   Maybe more than one.   But I agree with you that the age factor probably will work against him.

 

 On the other hand:   Considering how well the Lions Defense played on the road yesterday against Drew Brees and co.,...... even with the top 2 LBs out,  and the Lions not giving up more than 20 points in 6 straight games,  Teryl Austin's chances of finally getting an NFL HC job have gone up considerably,  at least at present.   Austin did a masterful job as DC in New Orleans yesterday.
