Quote:Key word "coordinator". Does it make logical since to hire a unproven coach to begin a rebuild? Fellas let's not live in the past.. The future awaits us lol..

Are you seriously arguing rebuilding football teams should not hire coordinators to become head coaches if they are unproven as head coaches?

 

If so then:

 

Dallas was silly for hiring Tom Landry

Green Bay was dumb for hiring this guy named Vince Lombardi, and another guy named Mike Holmgren.

Washington was out of their minds for hiring Joe Gibbs

The Bucs never should have hired Tony Dungy

The Bengals never should have hired Marvin Lewis

There were these guys named Noll, Cowher and Tomlin who never should have sullied the Pittsburgh franchise.

Chicago should have never hired Mike Ditka or Lovie Smith

Denver should have never hired Dan Reeves

Mike Smith should have never had the chance to become the franchise's all time best coach in terms of W-L record in Atlanta.

New Orleans were ain'ts for hiring Sean Payton.

 

Furthermore, there are plenty of teams that have hired proven head coaches that failed.

 

Cleveland and KC failed with Romeo Crennel

Tampa failed with Ray Perkins and Sam Wyche.

Marion Campbell had myriad failed stints as a head coach.
