re: What is your opinion of Chavis telling his good friend Steele to take the job?

quote:

---

Les and Frank starting putting the heat on Chavis to get off his arse and do more recruiting the old bullfrog didn't appreciate being asked to actually do his job and he bristled. that is why he left.

although we don't know this as fact, imo there is something to this. chavis' first 3 years on the job he produced better results than the last 3 and we had a big problem on the DL. sure, the D produced better than the O but that sure wasn't true the year before. I can see that he would have been chastised for this, which is normal. and he probably "felt" he should be above reproach based on his overall body of work over a long period of time got pissed and "accepted" a different job making a million dollars more.

i'm sorry to lose the chief because we knew what we had and with better recruiting and coaching for the front 7 we would most definitely have a great team in the future.

BUT, i'm energized by our two new coaches and look forward to BETTER DEFENSES than we had over the last 3 years and BETTER OFFENSES as well.
