Tom Coughlin had the Jaguars in the AFC Championship game.

He then won two Super Bowls with the Giants.

Does Carroll count as a college or pro coach?

Of course there's old school guys like Lombardi.

BTW, how many NFL coaches are successful, PERIOD?

Why make the arbitrary distinction of picking on college coaches?

Tell me why he is different and I'm all ears, I'm not trolling, just looking for some solid reasoning on why he will be successful

How many have been successful moving from college HC to NFL HC



Tom Coughlin has done pretty well for himself. Jimmy Johnson. Pete Carroll has done a nice job of turning around the Seahawks. Jim Harbaugh. Bobby Ross had success.

You mean besides the fact that NFL coaches have consulted with him on his offense and have applied his principles for a few years now?

BTW, another college coach who had success was Jimmy Johnson.

The man loves to run the football, and he is a brilliant offensive mind. He has a good group of running backs and a good amount of speed at the skill positions. The defense still has good pieces, as well. I'm not saying Chip will win the division this year, but I certainly wouldn't count him out just because he was GREAT at his previous job. That to me is just asinine.

Don't disagree, there's a difference in principals and handling NFL players... I've got no skin in the game, just looking to have a discussion.

Yeah, right.

Regarding your "handling NFL players" angle, what evidence do you have that he can't "handle" NFL players?

A leader is a leader, regardless of where he's leading.

Your correct, I have no evidence he can't. We will see if he can or can't in the next few years.

Matt Barkley is such garbage, never really watched USC but I thought there was big hype around this guy, watching him tonight and the texans TJ Yates is a better QB. This guy loves to throw 2 yard passes on every throw.

And he just made a nice throw that is the exact opposite of what you describe.

Nice fail, big fella.

wow 1 throw, what an epic fail, are you watching this? He's 6-17 with 51 yards...yes 3 yards per pass....in case you haven't noticed 33% passing percentages are not NFL caliber quarterbacks. So shut up.

6-17 is awful enough, but to do it vs 3rd stringers in the preseason is terrible

It's the preseason, and for what it's worth, half the secondary played together last year
