As far as retreads go, they could do worse

Kris Richard deserves a shot. Young guy, good pedigree and better than hiring a retread

Hasn’t he been terrible everywhere he’s been?

I know Seattle fired him and the falcons have not been good on defense this year

He’s the de facto defensive coordinator in Dallas and been a huge part of the turnaround. Yeah he was fired in Seattle but wouldn’t take too much stock in that

It would be scary what Caldwell could do with Atlanta's offense. I love Caldwell as a play caller.

Wtf? Is being a head coach in the NFL so insanely difficult that there are only a few capable of doing with all these retread hires?

Coaching in the NFL is 80% who you know.

Best record as a Lions coach (among those who coached at least a season) since Buddy Parker 1951-1956.

his record as a head coach without Peyton Manning is 64-105


That means he coached for 10 seasons.

I mean, don’t just lie to prove your point.

Most jobs in life are acquired based on who you know.

Pete Carroll and Belichick are both retreads.

This would be a Tri-Tread.

Would like to see the list of guys who succeeded on their 3rd try

Overall may include college. He didn't have Manning at Wake Forest where he lost over 60 games in about 7 years.

Oh, we were supposed to worry about what he did at Wake Forest 20 years ago and a decade before he coached pretty decently in the NFL? That's dumb.
