I understand the point that you’re trying to make, but this reminds me of the people who were saying that teams should avoid drafting Aaron Rodgers simply because all of the previous Jeff Tedford quarterbacks had been busts.Belichick's defensive assistants in NFL as head coaches. Note, all these guys took bad jobs (Jets, Dolphins, Browns, Lions). The Texans are a dumpster fire for sure.
Groh - left after 1 year (He's been the best NFL head coach of the bunch)
Saban - losing record in 2 seasons. Turned out OK in college FB though.
Crennel- fired in less than 2 seasons in KC. Huge losing record in Cleveland
Mangini - fired twice, losing records both jobs
Schwartz - fired. Huge losing record
Patricia - fired. Huge losing record
Flores - fired in 3 years

They should have dumped Watson and drafted a QB last year -- Mayo should take the Bears job instead, they have always been a defense first franchiseFair point but if I'm Mayo, I would avoid the dumpster fire known as the Texans like the plague.....
League isn't well known for giving AA candidates time to turn things around. (see Flores, Brian and Culley, David)
Mayo is very, very well respected. I have to think that Flores would be head, and mayo a coordinator tho. Just my experience:
Who do they give time to turn things around at any level of football Mr Race Card?
How come Doug Pederson was fired three years and two more playoff births after winning the super bowl? They must have forgot he was white.Obviously when the NFL feels the need to implement the Rooney Rule, attach draft pick compensation for hiring AA candidates, establishing a database of AA coaching candidates, and developing a coaching fellowship program for AA candidates then they realize they might have a problem.
The Dolphins just fired a AA coach who had back to back winning seasons. Yet retreads like Adam Gase get chance after chance

literally everyone but, Belichick, Tomlin and Reid gets fired in this league. Its an epidemic for EVERYONE in coaching regardless of race in our coaching culture. If you don't fix it immediately, you're done. Vrabel could win the super bowl this year then go 2-15 and get fired. Same as if it's a black coach. There's no correlation suggesting these owners are firing black coaches at a higher rate than white coaches. Only people with the false a priori axiom that attributes race being the correlating factor to literally everything.
Sure in the past they obviously had issues trusting black people as quarterbacks or head coaches
But those days are OVER and have been for decades. If Brian Flores doesn't have internal issues in the organization, butting heads with ownership on Tua and just rubbing people the wrong way, then he isn't fired. But one would probably refuse to believe that because one thinks race underlies every single situation like this ever even though one never has any evidence whatsoever to prove the Dolphins owner was like "geez three Yeats is enough I just can't stand this black guy anymore! I am just a racist! I must have forgotten that I was racist when I hired the guy! I thought I was firing him because I wound up not liking him personally and didn't think his vision for the team was going to work out...definitely nothing to do with who Brian Flores is as an INDIVIDUAL!"
