But we have some of the dumbest fans in the entire NFL here between the Tim Tebow loving urban meyer apologist so it wasn't shocking.(emphasis added) Nothing except play QB in the NFL, play on a Super Bowl winning team as a player, and be offensive coordinator for another Super Bowl winning team. That is a better resume than Sean McVay and Zac Taylor when they first became head coaches in the league. Sean NcVay's coachig career https://www.pro-football-reference.com/c...cVaSe0.htm Zac Taylor's coaaching career https://www.pro-football-reference.com/c...aylZa0.htm Byron Leftwich's playing career https://www.pro-football-reference.com/p...ftBy00.htm Byron Leftwich's coaching career https://www.pro-football-reference.com/c...eftBy0.htm For additional perspective Doug Pederson's coaching career https://www.pro-football-reference.com/c...edeDo0.htm Jon Gruden's coaching career /www.pro-football-reference.com/coaches/GrudJo0.htm Considering most NFL head coaches have been coordinators before becoming first time NFL head coaches, you can make a strong argument that Byron Leftwich was more qualified to become a head coach than any of the other candidates listed above. Zac Taylor had one year total as an offensive coordinator, and that was at the University of Cincinnati, NOT in the NFL. Leftwich had 5 as an NFL OC. Jon Gruden had three seasons as an OC before becoming a head coach. Sean McVay had three seasons as an NFL OC before becoming a head coach. Doug Pederson had 3 years as an NFL OC before becoming Eagles' HC. None of the other guys listed won a Super Bowl or even reached a Super Bowl as an OC. Leftwich did. With the above in mind, I do not understand the basis for suggesting Leftwich hasn't shown anything to suggest he could be a head coach in this league. Not only did he have a longer NFL career than most of the other coaches named above, he spent more time as an offensive coordinator on the NFL level than all of the guys listed above before they were hired. The presumption of being unqualified is exactly why things like the Rooney rule are needed. Worst to 1st. Curse Reversed!
