10-6, 10-5-1, and on the way to another 10-6 year this year. With all that talent, losing in first rounds 2 years in a row, id say hes figured out. 6-3 isnt good enough with one of the most talented teams in the league. Move along sweetheart.

The Seahawks are top 10 in talent, I would say. But nothing to write home about. Most teams just don't put every talented player on defense.

5.) Josh McDaniels- I wonder if hed leave NE ala Lane Kiffin.

Kiffin didn't leave the NFL for Tennessee. The NFL left him. He was hanging out at the coffee shop hoping some horny divorcee would pick him up when Hammy called.

Quoting Vandy fans about football should get you removed from VN for at least 6 months.

Pete and Les qualify for Social Security. How many home runs do you think they got left in the tank? Pete will be 70 when he gets his 4th class in, Les will be 70 in year 5/6

you looking for a Joe Paterno type winner, because i just don't see an old man being that good at recruiting and winning.

The NFL isn't a league where coaches not named Belichick consistently go 14-2, 15-1, 14-2. This isn't college, and parity is at its greatest. Marvin Lewis is still coaching the Bengals 15 years later. He has exactly six 10+ win seasons in that time, he's never made it past the wildcard round, and has never won a playoff game.

You might want to recalibrate your idea of what success is in the NFL, sweetheart.

its about whether you are trending up or down. Chuck Pagano From indy started out above average , then it fell off. Hes about to be fired.

Pete started out average to hot to above average to average. Its about where your trending in the league. If it wasnt then Norv Turner would still be Denvers coach.

The coaches in the 3/4ths of the AFC north are beyond comprehension on why they all have maintained success for so long. I guess having an extra bye week built into your schedule 2x a year doesnt hurt. thanks jimmy haslam.

Fuente would be a great hire; however, he's a Patterson protégé and Hamilton screwed the pooch there.

There’s zero chance Fuente would say no because Hamilton didn’t hire Patterson. Lots of reasons he may say no, but that’s not one of them

You're defeating your own argument. Carroll started off 7-9, 7-9 in his first 2 years. He has followed it up with 2 SB appearances (1 win), 3 Division Titles, and five 10+ win seasons, and on his way to another one. That's called trending in the right direction.

Well almost losses don’t count. And ten wins a season coaches are hot commodities in the nfl. This really is laughable.

I’ve always thought the Gruden stuff was a joke, but people really put stock in it.

Let me be one of the few who will say that, forget whether he would come or not for a second, he would be a complete bust.

You don’t want a 54 year old coach, who hasn’t coached in 10 years and hasn’t recruited since the 80’s.

Beyond the fact that it ain’t gonna happen, it’s actually a terrible idea

Please. 54 is young for coaches really. And it’s Jon Gruden at Tennessee. Recruiting wouldn’t be that hard for him. The issue would be all the limits and regulations that would tick him off
