I’m guessing they’re doing this because he’s a minority coach, and so they have to talk him up in order to be politically correct. Tim Cowlishaw even mentioned that “black coaches don’t always get second chances like this”.

Personally, I’m happy about the hire because I think the Falcons will continue to be mediocre, and the Saints can keep kicking their asses.

Don't watch these staged shows. They are actors. You are giving them ratings to help keep them on the air.

Because that career .356 winning percentage screamed he’s deserving of a 3rd chance. Especially with how stellar his defenses have been:
2009: TB HC 27th(yards) & 27th(points)
2010: TB HC 17th(y) & 9th(p)
2011: TB HC 30th(y) & 32nd(p)
2020: Atl DC/HC 29th(y) & 19th(p)
2021: LAR DC 17th(y) & 15th(p)
2022: LAR DC 19th(y) & 21st(p)
2023: LAR DC 20th(y) & 19th(p)

I'm glad that we all love the fact that Coach Morris is the HC of the High Flyin Falcs of the Ay Tee Ell .

Shannon Sharpe said his favorite thing about the hire is that now the Mayor is black, something else is black and the Coach is black

We also have this groundbreaking report from the associated press

Lovie Smith, Romeo Crenel, Denny Green, Hue Jackson, Herm Edwards, and Jim Caldwell would all like to have a word about that.

So it bothers you that Morris is a head coach but not DA

Why anyone would watch anything on ESPN outside of live game coverage is beyond me.

You won’t find anything with substance on those espn talk shows. They are literally designed to grab your attention however they can.
