great pick but it's in the division would he goup against the Saints twice a year?


Your other picks are very interesting.

although I think Shottenheimer (sp?) has no interest in coaching anymore.

Adam, you seem to be a Titans fan. What about Chuck Cecil ? I know he had the incident this year. But your opinions on him as a potential HC candidate ?

Unless the Saints can stop Williams I would at least call him. He may be the man they need in what appears to be a management team that is not going to go after the big names. Besides, it is not always the big names that win the titles..

Listened to a radio show a couple of weeks ago that said that Schott would come back --- would be interesting to see if he would poach his son from the Jets a la Shanahan.

Cincy is a low budget, poorly run franchise. I'd like to see what Marvin Lewis could do with more support.

I don't think he has payed his dues. He has only been a DC for 1 year and has been awful to say the least. Our D has just not had the same toughness it once had and our DB's play has gone down.

Wouldnt the saints get some big time draft pick compensation from the panthers if Williams went there?

no due to the fact that it would be a better job not an equal job.

really? seems to be a great DC with 3-4 and 4-3 background. i think thatd be a pretty good hire, esp if luck comes out and they get a franchise QB
