What a mystery

It's fair to have an opinion as a fan. I have one, you have one and we disagree. I'm willing to bet his peers have more insight into the kind of job he's doing though. Also, I disagree that bad coaches stay in the league. They typically bounce around and then drop out to another league or profession after a few years.

Would you agree with the above comment? 

The NFL has always been a "who do you know" league more than anything else. The problem with basing your opinions off what their peers say about them is 95% of the time coaches (and players for the most part, although its changing a bit) are going to say something positive. You'd be hard pressed to find any Seattle coaches who said Tom Cable sucked on the way out. 

Joe Thomas knows more than most fans about football, sure, he also refused to say anything bad about Hue Jackson while he was HC and gave him excuses for everything. Being truthful about coaches you've worked with orr coached with isn't something the NFL does
